Lumina offers her training

"If we become allies, or should I say partners, you would have the benefits of my magical skills." Lumina offered. "You may be a spellsword, but your knowledge of magic is limited to what others are willing to teach you. I know many lost spells that could be of great help to you that you would not need a weapon to cast. I can even teach you shape shifting. I would be willing to teach you whatever your heart desires to learn."

"It's all so very tempting," admitted Inea. "I suppose I would need to learn these greater spells you speak of before we find the Goddess Briella and set her free?"

Lumina smiled sweetly at her. "You are correct in that assumption, child of moonlight. You would also have to be trained to build up your mana reserves, for the spells we will have to use to free her with are very profound and intricate. They take a lot of mana to weave."

"Please, you don't have to call me child of moonlight anymore. My name is Inea. I would feel more comfortable if we were both on a first name basis. That is, since we are going to be partners and all."

Lumina was overjoyed at Inea's words. She hugged her closer as she giggled happily. "I promise you won't regret it. There is so much we both have to gain from our partnership!"

Inea seized on the moment and kissed Lumina full on the lips. She was pleasantly surprised when Lumina didn't flinch and allowed it to happen. Their kiss deepened as they exchanged tongues and saliva. When they finally broke the kiss, Lumina looked at her in surprise. "Well, you are most certainly full of surprises. But I must admit, I had hoped so from the moment I laid eyes on you."

Inea suddenly became shy and a little red faced. "Really? I'm not used to letting myself go like this. I just felt so strongly attracted to you. You're the first Drow I've ever seen, but you are the most beautiful."

Lumina could not help but giggle like a schoolgirl. It was her turn to be a bit embarrassed. "Thank you. I think you are also very beautiful. And I have seen many Elves before."

"Well, we can stand here and embarrass each other for the rest of our lives, or we could do other things," suggested Inea.

"Oh? What exactly did you have in mind?" Lumina inquired.
