The next morning
"My name is Pyralex Wreyn," said a lean man with dark green hair and light green eyes as he stepped into class with a large black briefcase
"And I," the man said with a beautiful smile as he kept his briefcase on his desk.
"Am your Spells instructor." Pyralex Wreyn said as he stood before his desk.
"Why is he everywhere?!" Princess Marina thought as she stared at him in shock.
"Today's class will be a theory class on one of the simplest spells from those blessed by the spirit of water." Pyralex Wreyn said with a smile.
"And the spell's name is Hielo." Pyralex said with a smile as every students' head whipped to Princess Marina.
Chuckling at their father obvious reactions, Pyralex began writing on the board.
"In simple terms, Hielo means ice." Pyralex said as he wrote the word Hielo.
"To say the word Hielo means to summon ice but how thick the ice is and in what form the ice is conjured depends on the image in your mind and your level of attunement." Pyralex said and all students except Princess Marina looked at him in confusion.
Smiling, Pyralex brought out a blue ore with high purity from his briefcase and beckoned a student sitted in the front to come stand before him.
"Take this." Pyralex said, as he handed Falorin the blue ore that carried the blessings of those blessed by water.
"Now without thinking anything, I need you to say the word "Hielo" and point the ore that way." Pyralex said as he directed Falorin to face the door in front and Falorin nodded.
"Hielo." Falorin said and and water flowed out from the ore and began to freeze slowly but after five seconds it disintegrated and flowed back to the ore.
"Do that again but this time focus on the shape you want your ice to be in." Pyralex said and Falorin's mind flashed back to the slab of ice that Princess Marina conjured up during the demonstration at weapon training class.
"Hielo!" Falorin said and this time her ice did form like the slab of ice conjured by Princess Marina but the only difference was that it was thinner and looked like a piece of paper compared to the boulder that Princess Marina conjured.
"Princess Marina." Pyralex called and Princess Marina felt the weight of different eyes on her as she stood up and walked to the front of the class.
Handing her a separate blue ore from his breifcase, Pyralex told her to say the word "Hielo" and a large slab of ice materialized in the class.
"This might be a harsh representation but this is what the difference of level of attunement can bring." Pyralex said as he pointed to the paper thin slab of ice created by Falorin who was of medium attunement and the thick slab of ice created by Princess Marina who was of high attunement and an awful silence filled the room.
"Again." Princess Marina thought as she looked at the bitter but understanding faces of her classmates.
Flashback
"Don't play with her," yelled a little boy with brown curls.
"What if she gets injured?" the boy asked his friends.
"What do we do if the moon Goddess descends in anger?" the little boy asked and both he and his friends dispersed leaving Estania alone in the field.
Flashback end
"Don't be disheartened." Pyralex Wreyn said with a smile and all the students turned to look at him.
"Because as those blessed by the spirit of fire, we exist to challenge things that are set in stone." Pyralex Wreyn said as he began writing on the board again.
"This next spell I am going to teach you is called "Crecer" which means to advance." Pyralex said as he wrote the spell on the board.
"With a spell like this, how can we take down that slab of ice?" Pyralex asked as he pointed to Princess Marina's slab of ice.
Unsure of his idea but choosing to say it anyway, Halorin said " With this spell, Falorin could only hope to go against Princess Marina if she produces a constant stream of ice." unsurely and once Pyralex nodded multiple hands went up.
Picking a girl with white hair and blue highlights, the girl stood up and said "She will need to make her ice smaller to increase her impact." and multiple hands flew up again.
Picking a boy with black hair and white highlights, the boy said "Falorin should try shaping her ice into small balls."
Nodding, Pyralex told Falorin to follow the class instructions and when she did she scattered the thick block of ice made by Princess Marina.
"See." Pyralex said, referring to Falorin shattering Princess Marina's block of ice.
"Your attunement may decide a lot of things but remember that your mind is a powerful tool that can turn things into your favour." Pyralex said and the terrible atmosphere in the class disappeared.
Flashback
"Why must we fight in the front lines, when she could destroy their armies herself." a boy yelled as he pointed at Princess Estania.
"Pull yourself together!" Gale yelled at the warriors of the tribe.
"No matter how strong she is, we are the warriors of this pack and we will fulfill our duties." Gale yelled and the other warriors howled.
Flashback end
"Thank you." Princess Marina whispered as she headed to her seat.
"Your welcome." Pyralex whispered back as he looked at her with a smile.
