Path of Metal, Fourth Step

The witch walked towards the training fields, located on the east from the town just beside the Whitecloaks keep. Once arriving to the place Imeri settled herself on the open field before closing her eyes and allowing her gravity magic to lift her into the air, where she was left, hovering and preparing for another practice over metal magic.

With her mind focused Imeri began her attempts to collect metal from the ground itself, making entire practice harder for herself, clearly wanting to speed up the process of mastering the new type of magic. Collection process was slow and tiring as it demanded alot of focus to locate and separate each bit of metal from the soil and stone itself, next it was needed to use magic to slowly pull it from its original place without causing alot of destruction to surrounding terrain.

Next step required manipulating the movement above the ground, forcing each individual bits to defy the gravity wasn't an easy task and Imeri refused to use her own control over it to help herself out. With sweat dripping from her face she slowly manipulated each individual piece to gather in form of sphere between her palms, sphere made of pure mixture of metals, slowly gaining weight and radius as more particles began to gather, sticking to the sphere itself creating solid piece.

The witch would continue her practice for few good hours, making multiple breaks to repelish her mana supply, either drink or eat snack that she took with herself, doing everything she could to remain capable of coninuing her practice for as long as her body would allow her to, slowly moving from gathering metal from ground to separating everything from sphere and dividing it into smaller ones made out of different metals, practicing her control over each type of metal individually, clearly wanting to manipulate each of them to her liking without problems.

Her practice lasted until sun nearly compeletly dissapeared behind the horison, with air becoming colder as the evening began to aproach, at that point Imeri had partly completed her practice, with few differently colored metalic spheres in her palms each of them in different size due to quantity of metals that the witch gathered from her surrounding, with dominant ones being iron and copper, while zinc and lead being the smallest ones.

 Imeri returned to her home to spend rest of the evening with her family until another day came which she used to yet another training session, completing the process that she did leave half completed the other day before deciding to move to repeat entire cycle in different spot. Using the time she had to train over and over, for days, weeks and months to get her control over metal to point where she wouldn't waste alot of mana to just gather it before wanting to move on to more advanced practice.
