Part 289: Miriel C

Hyaaa! Wind! Nrrraaagh! Elwind! Hnnnnnngh! Fire!

Whew... That's good for now.

.....

You're awfully quiet over there, Miriel. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen you practicing spells. So, I guess you just read and think? A lot?

Vigorous thought suits me. There is less grunting.

But don't you want to actually try out the stuff you're learning?

The testing of hypotheses through experimentation is of paramount import. .....

Um, Miriel? What did you just grab? Why are you staring at a glass of water?

I've immersed two distinct metals in this solution. Now to apply a charge... THUNDER!

Gah!

Success! How pleasant.

Whoa! They both look like the same metal now. How'd you do that?

It's merely a thin coating of particles freed from the sample by the spell's energy.

I have absolutely no idea what that means, but it's still amazing!

So does that have some kind of combat use or something?

None whatsoever.

Oh! That's... kind of weird.
