The Wizards\u2018 Tower\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius used magic to open the door of the tower; he extended his hand towards Abril and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019d better go in.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril took his hand, and as they entered, she was very surprised; although the tower looked cold and gloomy from the outside, the interior was well\u2013lit and seemed like a cozy place.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will be your home for a while, Your Majesty. I hope you feel comfortable in my tower. If you\u00a0<\/p>\n
need anything, don\u2019t hesitate to ask.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril was determined to master her magic because she wanted to return to the palace and be with\u00a0<\/p>\n
Alessandro as soon as possible, so she said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen we can start my training right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?! Right now?!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, as you know, I\u2019m here to learn to control my power, so I want to learn to do it immediately so I\u00a0<\/p>\n
can return to the palace.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius knew that wasn\u2019t the only reason the king had sent her to that place; he wanted to keep his\u00a0<\/p>\n
beloved wife away from danger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour Majesty, maybe you should rest a bit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I want to start immediately.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand your urgency, but mastering magic is not something to be taken lightly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, and I also understand that it\u2019s even more difficult for me since my magical power\u00a0<\/p>\n
awakened recently.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that\u2019s why I want to start immediately; the war will be soon, and I want to be prepared to fight alongside Alessandro.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think His Majesty would like the idea of you participating in the war.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m also aware of that, but he\u2019ll have to accept it. I don\u2019t intend to let him face the horrors to come,\u00a0<\/p>\n
alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius scratched his head and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
suppose nothing I say will change Your Majesty\u2019s mind.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right, so let\u2019s start right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Wizards\u2018 Tower\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, follow me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril followed Sirius to his office. Sirius sat on one of the sofas in his office and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease, take a seat.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril sat on the sofa on the other side and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought we were starting right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Claim\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that\u2019s what we\u2019ll do, but first, I need you to tell me if you have any questions about your magic,\u00a0<\/p>\n
so I know which parts need strengthening.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril actually had several questions, so she asked Sirius.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow can I gain better control of my magic?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWith practice.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy do I sometimes feel it flowing through my body, but other times it\u2019s as if it\u2019s not there?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it\u2019s because you haven\u2019t broken all the seals on your magic; it\u2019s incomplete.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s exactly what my mother told me; she said that until now, I\u2019ve only been using my magic\u00a0<\/p>\n
unconsciously.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know Your Majesty is still opposed to breaking the last seal because you don\u2019t want to separate from your mother\u2019s spirit, but without doing so, controlling your magic will be quite difficult.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut is it impossible?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, but\u2026 it won\u2019t be easy at all.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t care; even if it\u2019s more difficult, I don\u2019t want to break the last seal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, we could try it, but I can\u2019t guarantee it will work.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI would still like to try it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen we should start by learning to channel your magic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd how would I do that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could try using enchantments.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEnchantments?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, that will help you channel your magic. When children first awaken their magic, they usually use enchantments, and as they learn to fully control their magic, they stop using them. Although some use weapons or jewels as channels, I think you\u2019ll have to break the last seal within you if you want to access all your magic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Wizards\u2018 Tower\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen maybe I should start with enchantments.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clain\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, I think that\u2019s best. Once you\u2019ve managed that, you could try channeling your magic into a weapon or an object. I don\u2019t know how to use any weapons. Here in the tower, there are many magicians who use magical weapons; they could teach you if you wish. During a war, that\u2019s more effective than using enchantments because it uses less magic. The king does it too, channels his magic into his sword and creates thousands of sharp blades, although only certain types of weapons can be used for that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew there were many things I had to learn, but I never imagined there were so many.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius stood up, took a book from one of the shelves in the room, and gave it to Abril.\u00a0<\/p>\n
if you put your all into it, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll see results quickly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLearning magic is very complex, bu\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope so.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe book contains many enchantments that could be helpful to you. I recommend reading it\u00a0<\/p>\n
thoroughly before starting the practical exercises.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI will do so.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius noticed that Abril was still wearing the ring he had given her and said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour Majesty, this might sound insolent, but please change your hair color and don\u2019t reveal your identity to anyone; it\u2019s for your safety.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Using the power of the ring, Abril did as Sirius asked and changed her red hair to light brown.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d also like you to choose a different name.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril thought of a name for a moment. She chose the name of the protagonist of her favorite\u00a0<\/p>\n
novel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAmara.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful name. From now on, I\u2019ll address you as Amara. Please remember to keep your identity a secret. This is a safe place, but it\u2019s best not to take risks.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius snapped his fingers and a girl in a black robe with short blonde hair appeared suddenly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTara, I want to introduce you to Amara, she is my disciple. Show her the tower and assign her a\u00a0<\/p>\n
room.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, master.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tara introduced herself to Abril with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHello Amara, my name is Tara. I hope we can get along well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a pleasure to meet you, Tara. I hope I\u2019m not a bother to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
|||\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Wizards\u2018 Tower\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sure you won\u2019t be.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius gave Tara a look as if to say:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGet out of here, I want to be alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tara took Abril\u2019s hand and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAmara, we should hurry, or I won\u2019t be able to show you the entire tower.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Claim\u00a0<\/p>\n
They both left the room. Tara showed her much of the tower and then took her to her room, as she seemed very tired.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Abril was alone, she began to read the book Sirius had given her. That day, she stayed up reading late into the night, eager to finish the book quickly and move on to practice. She needed to learn to control her magic to return to the palace and be with her beloved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
