Now I know Illos is well-versed in the procedure, but how familiar are the rest of you?

I haven't done it since I was a kid.

Same.
Merric

I'm new to my elemental magick, so I do not know this ritual at all.
Lum

Very well. I'll start from the beginning, then.

Those of us that have elemental magick, it is very different than the other magicks.
Kintal

The drago create arbitrary distinctions on their magick based on their rules, the fennic insist their magick is all from their minds.
Kintal

Our magick inherently comes from our attunement to our surroundings, and our emotions.

Each tribe is taught different ways of manifesting this magick, but the truth is, the same techniques work, no matter what our tribe may be.
Kintal

◄
Air, Fire, Water, Nature. We draw these arbitrary distinctions amongst ourselves for politics or for war, but our magick is all just one part of a greater whole.
Kintal

◄
This is because our magick comes from us and around us, from all things to our very souls.
Kintal

◄
Fennic lock it within their own bodies, Lagre use themselves as walking batteries, while our magick permeates everything, from the mountain we sit upon to the smallest drop of rain.

Others' magick does not manifest as elementals. The planet Alastere sings in our magick. Everywhere we look, a splendid mixture of colors.
Kintal
►
◄
Nowhere else does the cycle appear, and although our magick is all attuned differently, all colors combine into pure light just the same.
Kintal

◄
The drago and fennic both require intensive training, either to reign in their magick or manifest it to begin with, but we do not.
Kintal

◄
Naturally, as children, we find ourselves drawn to using our magick as a natural extension of ourselves.
Kintal

◄
Because it aligns itself so well to our natural selves. That is the key to elemental communion.
