章 140: Metamagic

Cael was interested in many things. But first was…

'Spellcrafting. I want to learn to modify and make my own spells.'

'A wonderful choice for us both. Useful for you, and not too troublesome for me. There are several books on the topics in the Library, but not so many that reading them to you will take forever. I can start with the first one right now, if you are ready for the lecture.'

This was how Cael's lessons on spellcraft began. If they could be called such, since each lesson entailed only several hours of writing under Niko's dictation. Cael only rewrote a single book, before he realized he won't have enough paper for the rest of them. He had a good stash of it with him when he left for the island, but not big enough for something like this.

A distressing lack of foresight.
