  1. Haji flips over the codex and began glancing over it; He remembered seeing the body of the lion in there not that long ago. Haji had come to a sudden realization that a calling to the stars would be far more helpful to him.
  2.  
  3. "So, I was out and about talking to different people, and I started thinking back to my magic. My people knew only the main elements. I was so focused on fire that it might have burned me out just a little bit."
  4.  
  5. Haji continues flipping through the codex.
  6.  
  7. "I think focusing on the main element of fire would do me some good, and connecting myself with a star would fit me better. Of course, my goal still will remain the same, but you mind helping me?"
  8.  
  9. Haji flips another page.
  10.  
  11. "What is it like having that kind of magic flow through you, and how does it feel when you project it? If I could understand that feeling, then maybe I could replace it with that feeling of advanced fire magic."
  12.  
  13. Haji Shrugs.
  14.  
  15. "I'm not sure if it would work for me, but I'm willing to give it a try."
  16. (Haji La'Heba)
  17.  
  18. Ambre looks over Haji's shoulder, reading through the book with him.
  19.  
  20. "I'd love to help you with your magic in any way I can! Though, I'm sure the High Priestess would be much better at helping than me — she's really wise, and talented."
  21.  
  22. Then, as Haji asks what it feels like to channel cosmic magic, she thinks back to the last time she channeled it, remembering the burning sensation of overdrawing...
  23.  
  24. "Well, for me, it sort of... burns. It feels like something's washing through my body that's supposed to be there — it's meant to be there — but I'm not quite meant to have it..."
  25.  
  26. She then realizes what she said makes no sense at all.
  27.  
  28. "It's like... Let me rephrase it. You know that feeling when you lay in the hot sun, and you feel like you're sort of burning, but in the good way?
  29.  
  30. And, you ever get water all the wayup your nose, into your sinuses?
  31.  
  32. Well... It's sorta like both of those, mashed together, and all over."
  33.  
  34. She then realizes that doesn't sound pleasant in the slightest, and she doesn't want to turn Haji away from it!
  35.  
  36. "At least, that's what it was like for me, when I first started. You get used to it over time, as long as you remember not to draw too much mana from the stars like I did."
  37. (Ambre)
  38.  
  39. Haji didn't catch on right away, but it slowly started making more sense as she explained it to him.
  40.  
  41. "So, it burns your body? It sounds like fire magic, kind of, but with additional steps. I usually feel a tingle in my body anyway so that I could replace that feeling with star magic?"
  42.  
  43. Haji rubs the back of his head a little.
  44.  
  45. "Instead of purples flames, I could try using cosmic energy? I don't know if that's how it works, truth be told, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try."
  46.  
  47. Haji flips through the codex a bit more.
  48.  
  49. "Wouldn't it make sense for me to have that whole star bonding thing first? Maybe then that's all I need to have the feelings switched?"
  50.  
  51. Haji was full of more questions than solutions at the moment; this is why he needed Ambre's help.
  52. (Haji La'Heba)
  53.  
  54. "Of course, everyone's different, so your body might process the magic differently."
  55.  
  56. She then nods — the Star Connection would be the best place to start.
  57.  
  58. "I only started my cosmic magic after my Star Connection, so that might be the best place to start. We can look around for a Priest whenever you're ready!"
  59. (Ambre)
  60.  
  61. Haji closes the codex and follows Ambre; it was better for him to start now than wait until it was too late.
  62.  
  63. "Uh, I think it's best if we look for her now. You gave me a good starting foundation. I assume once I finish with the star connection, I'll have a better idea of how to conjure star magic."
  64.  
  65. That's at least what he hoped would happen.
  66. (Haji La'Heba)
