"I take it it's not supposed to do that?" Jesse arched an eyebrow as she took her new magic wand.

"Not usually this fast. Typically it takes a few spells to adapt to the flavor of your magic before it changes to your unique form, but to take your form so quickly, I'm guessing means your magic has a greater connection to the rod. Who knows just what that means in the grand scheme of things? This is a first for me."

"Well aren't you glad for something you've never seen in all your years of making disposable spellcasters?" Jesse winked as she tucked the rod deep into her courier bag."

"The novelty is a treat. Now go. You'll never start to amuse me standing around here."

"Here's to hoping I keep things fresh." Jesse laughed as she ducked out the entrance into the sunshine, planning her new strategy.
