Crystiel Thistlebush(Kristie Teardrop)

[2015/10/09 16:54] Crystiel Thistlebush sets the sword to the side of her leaned up against the side of the chair so she could see it. She already knew the enchantment on it, having been told recently by Meri.....that should give her some insight...in the right direction...at least once she is able to "see" the aura...it may help her to identify it....she gets to the spot where it explains the catalyst for the spell...she translates it into a word...and focuses on her vision...she tests the word in a whisper, but nothing happens.....then a couple candles on the desk flare up and then go out..."Woops...ahh wrong pronunciation...sorry" she says and then smiles at the man who entered, "might be me...Im just practicing"

[2015/10/09 17:00] Garrett (Arex Koltai) reached out to take his book back if Meri would allow him, and then frowned in thought as the armored man mentioned that he was here to escort him on behalf of a 'friend'. He perked a brow, internally considering how many people he could consider as a friend, and how many had clout for this sort of request. But eventually, he came to some sort of conclusion and nodded towards the armored man, "Very well then. Lead on." He would turn his head back to Meri and offer a smile to her, "Just send a message with the materials to the Keep. They will ensure it gets to me." It wasn't as if the request he was making was particularly strange or potent. Secrecy was not necessary, and perhaps even counterproductive, in this case.

[2015/10/09 17:04] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) 's careful gaze played over the man's form, her head tipping aside slightly as she took him in. The message delivered brought a flick of the brow in silent inquiry, her eyes darting over towards Garrett and back. The man's look met with a quirk of her lips and soft burst of laughter that ensues as the sense of Magic fades from the room, only the quiescent mass of random items about belying the hint of Talent. She'd watch as he seemed to be physically affected, that tidbit of information noted as she stored it away, then dipped her head politely and flicked a glance back at Crystiel as she was practicing. The candles snuffed brings another soft chuckle to her breath, the quick trill of Magic as the cantrip sets them aflame again and she turns back to Garett once more. "Sounds like you're being paged." of course releasing the book into his grip and offered another dip of her head as she murmurs with those soft musical tones. "Never a worry, I'll get that list to you, just let me know what you might have trouble with getting." Food of course was in short supply, but material items such as these, shouldn
[2015/10/09 17:05] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) shouldn't be so difficult. "Safe travels to you..." she'd offer to both men and wait until they'd stepped away to turn her gaze back to Crystiel.

[2015/10/09 17:07] Aden -Ze Kaizer- Spiritor (finn.snowfall) cants his head lightly and gives a nod of his head in return to Garretts response. Then he gave a nod towards the two women as well, each given the polite farewell in turn. He even gave a nod to the NPC male before turning towards leaving, opening the door with a calm push of his hand. "I am sorry about the way I asked, but I am not very familiar with social customs I am afraid." he says to the man as he leads him away from the magic shop. He does spot the bite marks at the neck and taps his finger against his own. "She is quite greedy, isn't she?" he remarks with a soft laugh, yet his eyes narrow slightly, wondering if he nailed it or missed.

[2015/10/09 17:10] Crystiel Thistlebush goes back over the scroll she was reading and, reads through the catalyst again....and sees her mistake...she accented the wrong vowel...."ahhh there we go" she says to herself and then whispers the new and inproved word of power....immediately she covers her eyes, "Ahhhhh....colors.....too bright!" she was blinded by a wash of rainbow colors, like drops of lamp oil in a puddle of water, but brighter...she doesn't see the two leave, "Ahhh that smarts....."

[2015/10/09 17:15] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) flicked a glance over as the two men left, the comment about greediness and the other man's hand tapping at... were those bite marks?? Meri'd stop, blink a moment, tip her head then furrow her brow before shifting her gaze back to Crystiel at her exclamation... the soft chuckle on her breath "Try it like this..." then she chants out the piece that Crystiel was trying to employ... the timbre perhaps a little different and the intonation clearer... "You'll get there..."

[2015/10/09 17:22] Crystiel Thistlebush sits back with eyes the size of saucers, "yeah, I'll try that as soon as this feeling goes away...I havnt seen this many colors since I ate that mushroom a friend of mine handed me when I was younger" she says with a smile a she leans back....the colors already starting to fade, and outlines of things and Meri are starting to come back into Focus. her eyes moving about a she follows the blotted colors as they go through her vision, "whats the story on the book? if you don't mind me asking....it seems strong..I could feel its magic from across the room....you dont have to awnser, just passing time till my visions clears," she says with a Huge grin as Purple floods her vision, but at least she could see now....just everything was a shade of purple, red and blue.

[2015/10/09 17:27] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) tips her head, the soft purr of bemusement in her voice as she grins a little watching the little Fae. "I'll take your word for it..." she'd offer dryly, watching her quietly as she seemed to have some sort of reaction. "Does this happen to you often when you're practicing?" She'd inquire quietly then motion towards the door and the long-gone figures. "Oh, it's just an enchantment to weather-proof and protect the contents."

[2015/10/09 17:40] Crystiel Thistlebush shrugs with a smile as normal colors begin to fade in, the effect wearing off, "Usually at least until I get the invocation right, one wrong syllable and who knows what happens.....its more chaotic with us Fae, as we don;t just know Magic...we are Magic, more so then other races anyways, its why I could feel the book, seemed a very hush hush attitude, for just a weather-proofing enchantment.....you seemed a little tense as if the man who came in was gonna steal it...but....never mind about that, im sure it isnt any of my business...I think im ready..." she says and then goes over the catalyst again and rememebers what Meri said about its Connotation...and whispers the word in test again. Colors spread through her vision once again...but more focused...objects around the room glow...some potions on the shelf glowed green...others red, purple, orange....there was even one that "glowed" black...hidden on the bottom shelf in the corner, "Ahhhh that seems to work.....I see the auras I think, but I have no idea
[2015/10/09 17:40] Crystiel Thistlebush what they mean..." she says and then the colors fade...it was only a test so she didnt give it much force to stay going forr long.

[2015/10/09 17:46] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) chuckles again as she seems to have colored herself once more, the tip of her head as she listens then just nods "You'll have to take a little time, feel them out, it's not just the aura itself you can see, but if there's any spells on the item, or sometimes how it works. You don't always get the same answer every time, it might be different components that come to you. But each additional bit of information will pull a bit more of your Magic from you - so guard it carefully..."
[2015/10/09 17:52] Crystiel Thistlebush smiles and nods, "that makes sense...just practice makes perfect...I already know what the swords enchantment is...so if I was to examine it..I should be able to recognize that or similar effects, on other things..yes, so its just a matter of knowing what each Aura means...some had other colors mixed in with a main color, that might be the spell used, but I don't know how to tell them apart"

[2015/10/09 17:54] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) nodded "Once you master the spell, it will tell you, the colors will make sense and the enchantments will speak to you - tell you what's inherent in each item. It's just a matter of working your way through it." nodding resolutely "The spells you're familiar with will come easiest, the others may take a little more time."

[2015/10/09 18:02] Crystiel Thistlebush nods and thinks, "so..should I cast a spell I know and then read its aura? till it comes naturally to me...I think I can do that....lets see here....pehaps just a cantrip...." she says and thinks up of one as she snaps her finger....a Glow appears in the center of the room, a simple light spell, a ball of white light....she feeds it a little magic and then ties off the weave, it should stay for a few minutes...enough time to try her hand at "reading" it.

[2015/10/09 18:14] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) nods "That would be another way to go about it as far as testing yes... but a lot you will just learn as you go along. Part of the joys of Magic..." the soft chuckle on her breath as she lifts her eyes to peruse the globe for a moment, an impish grin lighting her features, though she'd behave and just nod "You're getting it, the more practice the better. Now however, I need to start working on a reagents list... I look forward to seeing you again soon, Crystiel."

[2015/10/09 18:18] Crystiel Thistlebush focuses on the new spell, centered on her vision and whispers the word of power once again, but gives it a bit more strength then she did previously. colors swirl in her visions once again and then spreads out and settles on the objects around the room. she focuses her vision on the Ball of white, and sees another glow around it..also white....perhaps this wasn't the best spell to start off with as it kinda blends in with the effect its self...but she could see other colors mixed into the aura...in fact there was a bluish knot on one side."ok...I see the aura...there is a bluish knot on one side of the white Aura,...is that where I tied it off at?..I think so...Light magic, so it shows up white....go figure....but its not really telling me anything I don't already know" she would say and then releases the magic on her eyes and smiles at Meri, "yes...you have given me much to think on...I'll keep practicing over the next week...I may come back later for some fine tuning if I run into issues...thank you for
[2015/10/09 18:18] Crystiel Thistlebush your time" she says with a smile, a she slides off the chair and hefts the sword back on her shoulder. the ball of light still glows, but she has no control over it cause she tied it off...but it should fade away soon.

[2015/10/09 18:23] Merialeth Windstar (caireannliadan) nodded once more, smiling as she watches the Fae slip down and hoist her sword. "Good luck with your new blade there, that's quite the catch... I'll be around if I'm needed - Good night, Crystiel." She'd offer a warm smile watching her as she went then tipped her head at the globe of light, a soft trill of her own as she sent it up higher out of the way so it wasn't so bright on her eyes, then headed for the back room to work on her list. (Thanks for the RP!)

[2015/10/09 18:25] Crystiel Thistlebush smiles and nods, "Good night Meri" she would say and then tips her head in her direction before heading out, with a snap of her fingers that opens the door before her...and then closes behind her.<your welcome and ty as well>

[16:14] Crystiel Thistlebush sits on the well, as she goes over the spell scroll once again...shes gotten better at this...but still no real success. she keeps the sword laid out beside her on the edge of the well and waves her hand over it, sprinkling it with her pixie dust, the words she used before are now sub-vocalized, to a deep hum of magic. To her sight, the sword flares up in a rainbow of colors, that settles on it like an Aura. within that Aura are a myriad of other colors, that is supposed to in some way reveal information on the enchantment...she already knew what the sword does.....but she has yet to be able to see it for herself....or understand how Merri could decipher it, so quickly....

[17:18] Crystiel Thistlebush watches the colors move along the edge of the sword, almost as if it was in fire. but what does it all mean? she decides to focus more Magic into it...maybe it was waiting for something more....as she pushes mana into it, the colors flare up once again and seem to reach out to her....Guidance...Luck.....teleportation?...that wasnt exactly right.....but she was close...she could feel it.

[18:40] Crystiel Thistlebush releases the magic once again and shakes her head....the effort was hard and exhausting, she will have to work on this more at a later time.....she was close...it was trying to tell her something, and thats what she wanted.....but it was incoherent....like hearing someone speaking gibberish...
