"We were hoping you would say that." The two mages said in unison. There were murmurs from the other mages around Walker.
"I can't believe they are willingly working together."
"Those two are always oil and water."
"One kid shows up and now everyone is focused on fusion skills, it's been years."
These were just a few things Walker was able to pick out of the murmuring. He was impressed that they were all cooperating so easily. He had imagined from the set up of the room that they would all be at odds much more easily. "I am interested in trying it if everyone else is? Who knows what we can learn from the experiment." Waker had felt his curiosity grow, and much to the mages' joy, theirs did too.
"This kid is after my own heart, you came to the right place." The fire mage finally found the desire to experiment sparking in the other mages and he was not going to let it fade.
