Wonders of the Weave, Friday - 6th Period

"My apologies," Gale said once the class arrived. "I had meant to work on presentation for you all, but there has been some events that have transpired that have taken my focus away from teaching you all."

The events were a tressym lashing their tail back and forth on the desk in annoyance.

"So, today we'll instead be sharing the sorts of magic you are more accustomed to with each other, yes? How does that sound? A little round table, if you will."

Since no one had the same type and he needed to figure out how best to work with this all. Why couldn't you all have one, perfectly normal spell list to pull from and no weird factors? Why?

"Let's begin!"

"Well," Lydia said, "as I said last week," and really, Gale, didn't you pay attention then? "where I am from all magic has a price, and if you don't pay it in advance the universe or God or whomever will make sure that it is paid. Not in money, of course, but some kind of sacrifice, or pain, either by the person who cast the spell or by someone else...usually someone who is involved, or has agreed to pay. Some witches are not so scrupulous, of course, and some even use poor innocent animals." Lydia could never.

"I'm a witch, so the magic I know is in the form of spells, some of which are just...thinking about the outcome you want and making the trade, but some of them require incantations or ingredients or somesuch. It's all rather complicated," she complained.
