In comfort

Tritera uses her magic to put you down on the soft set of cushions where you originally transformed. You feel safe here under her watch.

You wanted to talk about what just happened but couldn't find the words. What was there to say? Tritera had seen the whole thing, even participated. For lack of any way to articulate what you experienced you resolve to nibble around the edges and details.

Alexis : "So you have magic hands?"

Tritera laughs at this.

Tritera : "I've been told I have those too, but I think you're referring to my telekinesis magic. Yes, while you're clearly an elementalist and transmogrification natural I am most strongly a sorceress of remote **** and arcane conjuration."

Alexis : "does everyone have two spell types?"

Tritera : "usually two but there are some exceptions. Everyone can also learn a little of each specialty"

She demonstrates by conjuring a small flame on her thumb, useful to start a fire or light candles but nothing like your ability to shoot streams of fire.

Tritera : "but even a total novice is more skilled in their specialty than the most carefully honed non-specialist."

Alexis : "what other types of specialties are there?"

You ask, genuinely excited to learn more about this world of magic you were being inducted into.

Tritera : "oh there's, dozens. Beast magic, nature magic, light magic and many more. You'll learn a lot when you meet your fellow students. Some specialties are rarer than others. Elementalist is a useful but pretty common specialty while transmogrification is quite rare."

You feel a kind of pride in being such a rarity. You were about to chastise yourself for being prideful in a quality you hadn't earned. But you did earn it, damn it. This specialty had cost you 18 years a miserable half existence and you deserve a little bit of pride for enduring it.
