[With a clearing of his throat, Merlin addresses the journal system.]

Perhaps...I am not really cut out to be a knight. Although, it'd be nice to get some of the recognition. A knight is never stuck serving breakfast.

[There's a quiet, longing look as Merlin looks "off screen" towards Arthur's abandoned sword. Knights, after all, had so much more of an acceptable heroism.]

Miss Fina, could I request an audience with you? It's about--err--what we talked about, last time. I could use some help.

[Merlin is shown drawing a palm across his face. He grumbles.] Arthur's still not back.

[Stuffed with pride.]

Gaius said I was like something entirely new. No magic can be performed without incantations, back home. But I just think it and it happens. But--[sigh]--a lot of what I could do back home, I cannot do here. It's like there's something in the way.

[ Fina nods, understanding what he means by something obstructing their abilities. ]

Yes... in Luceti, I can't use some of the Silver magic pertaining to my civilization. I can channel magic from the moons, but it isn't very strong. I think.. it has something to do with the barrier here.

So instead, we're left with these...spirits. [He shakes his head.] I don't really like this place.

[ ACTION ! ]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Um... they aren't that bad. Eferin is a bit... [ She trails off about the picky fire spirit. ] ... most of the time, the spirits are necessary.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Necessary?

[ ACTION ! ]

[ Fina nods. ]

Some people, um.. myself included, find Nala's contribution helpful; I think her healing magic is stronger than my spells from the Green Moon in Luceti.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Healing magic. Hmm. That's one thing I could not do, back home.

[ ACTION ! ]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Nala is very kind. She is one of the easiest spirits to learn form.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

How do you learn from her?

[ ACTION ! ]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Um... you just have to listen.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Listen to what? [He's probing.] The air?

[ ACTION ! ]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ Fina nods. ]

Yes.. you can hear her everywhere.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

I guess I'll have to start listening, then.

[ ACTION ! ]

[ Fina giggles nervously. ]

I'm sorry, I'm not much help... um, I know Professor Sage is good teacher.

[ ACTION ! ]

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

You're plenty of help, Fina. [Smiling.]

[ ACTION ! ]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ She blushes. ]

... I hope so.
