Eakna Almusta - Creation of Time's Wrath Decay

[12:49] He was holding a new card. The metallic blue mythril card in his hand. hand. He would be looking at the runes carefully. In all reality he had just rewrote the runes from his stone lightning trap card. So now he just needed to put it into practice.

"Alright let's put it to the test..." He would say allowed as he stood there holding the card. He would begin pouring mana into it. The card's runes would begin to glow and static could be seen dancing across it. Then the lightning would burst out recoiling him backwards through the air. It was a whole lot more force than he was ready for and he ended up rolling and fumbling on the ground like a rag doll.

When the dust had settled from his fumble he was already getting back up and holding the card. The lightning trail was just vanishing by the time he was looking at the card. "Gah too much mana put into it at once... Need to practice it and get the technique down."

He thought aloud pulling out his notebook writing things down on what he could do.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[12:53] The fairy travelled far, it took a long while before she had managed to find her way through all of the forests and marshlands. It was a trip with purpose, she was going to see if her dearest friend Victor, they were around the Angelic village.

Something seemed to be within her path, a young mortal being which happened to be playing with tiny cards. Strange, the faery didn't exactly know what they were doing but was curious all the same. Time spent asking questions was certainly a gift which kept giving because it allowed her to understand the different people, the ones who were trying strange things.

"Hello there. I couldn't help but notice that you were playing with some... Well I am not really sure what you were even using there, could I ask what exactly that you were doing?"

Curious, willing to learn, she was ready be informed.
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:03] Closing his notebook and looking at the glowing fae. Seemed they were everywhere now days. He looked at his lightning trap card and then smiled at the curious fae. "Well I'm sampling practicing my 'magic'. Or in sense another person's spell. Using my... mythril cards I can cast magic without having an affinity for any specific magic type. I'm a runewrite and a creator of card casting."

He stated quite proudly before pulling out a different mythril card. "An example as I shall show you." He said as he started to fuel the card with his mana. The card would begin pulling mana in and surround him from all forms of life. Not enough to be threatening by any means. Just enough to give him the power to cast the spell. He had blue glow surrounding him. Eventually a burst would happen and he would launch forward with the force of a meteor at the open field.

"That was a cosmic spell I have perfected on one of these cards. It works rather well. I am not a cosmic magi though. Yet I can still cast their magic." He explained.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:12] The tiny creature seemed to notice the smile, it was interesting to meet a new mortal being which was so different from the many who cast their abilities with staffs and such. The normality was to use a conduit to produce their spells, but she could grasp the idea behind using something different.

"So you use runic symbols to produce spells? That is a very different way of achieving the goal, but I guess that it could make some sense. How have you been doing with mastering this ability to use magic with your cards? Successful or not?"

Hearing what he was saying was a bit strange, being able to cast the cosmic magic but not have learned it for yourself... Was that even possible, things typically needed order and balance. Even learning different magics required having to follow the path.

"How is that even possible? You are capable of casting Cosmic magic... But you are unable to cast it without these cards."

Bewildered the fairy wanted more answers.
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:15] Cherry asks, "What are we looking at Mister Almusta?"
[13:24] He nodded at the question "Yes indeed little fae. I put a specific set of runes on these cards, they act in a way to mimic and act like the spell I'm trying to produce."

He explained to the fire fae as he looked at his card. Truth be told it took him a lot of effort to even do this. "I have to study spells carefully and learn about them as best as I can before I can even attempt making a card. It goes through trials on a stone card first then I move it over to a mythril card if it succeeds or does well enough. Theoretically I could even manage to use occult magic with holy magic... Although that's just a theory. I haven't put it into practice."

Then the next question was asked. "It's possible through practice and studying. Yes I can't cast my magic without my cards. Hopefully one day I can find a solution to that problem. Maybe have them burned into my skin? Attached on to never leave my body? Who knows but for now it's like a game. What magic card will I use next? I already have a few theories and cards in mind to make for in the future. A holy earth spell and angelic spell. Although that would be hard for the angel one as I'd need a demi angel or full blooded angel's feather or blood. Of course I'd need to acquire it with no malicious intent."
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:24] Eakna Almusta says, "Ah young Cherry I am just talking to the fae here."
[13:30] The girl was walking and jumping around the walls, moving her head from side to side. Her grin came across all of her faces.

She saw her grownup friend Mister Almusta looking and then talking about cards. She stands beside him for a moment.

''Wow, you got a really good and funny plan here, Mister Almusta.'' she arguing and then turns her gaze towards a mass of beautiful colors, purple, blue, green, and others ones.

''Oh, hi, My name is Cherry, it's a pleasure to meet such a beautiful creature like you.'' A respectful bow and pretty smiles were given to the fairy as the child took a step to exanimate the draconic fae.

(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:36] Thinking about everything that the human was saying it seemed that there were plenty enough points that she really didn't understand, being able to use magic without actually having learned the depth of casting within your own rights. To use light and darkness magics at the same time was also impossible for regular creatures, that was a right reserved for only the Angelic beings.
"Strange idea but I wish you luck, there is a good chance that you might be able to succeed on this endeavour and I would like to see how one could manipulate magics without having to learn the way the majority do."

Tiny eyes flickered toward the small Cherry, now there was a cutie. The fairy did like children, they were tiny and sometimes really mean but this one didn't seem to exactly harbour hurtful emotions.

"Why hello, my name is Waydelle! I appreciate your praise cutie, but you have no reason to bow to me. Just a Faerie, besides. I'm from around Cruxati, those people do not like bowing."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:42] The man chuckled. Most people seemed intrigued but doubtful about whether or not it could work. Truth be told the man himself wasn't even sure it could work. Theoretically he could even learn and mimic race specific traits if he wanted to try.

"I'm Eakna Almusta. When you hear people talk of the card casting mage let them know my name little fae. Although do keep the fact I'm studying this a mystery as I do not wish to have the wrong hands get ahold of this idea." he would ask of them. Truth be told if even the wrong person started trying to do this it could end very poorly.

He looked at the young Cherry and ruffled her hair with a smile on his face. "After all we wouldn't want children like her to get hurt due to the wrong people Miss Waydelle."
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:49] The girl listens to the fae and glances over to see Mister Almusta while he speaks and rubs her hair, act that provokes Cherry's cheeks to turns red.

Cherry's sky eyes when to the fae. ''Oh, I didn't know that you were not from here. Miss Waydellle, so you are from Cruxati? isn't that a Gehenna territory? what do they do there to say hi?'' She inquiry and her gaze go next to Eakna.

''I won't tell your secret!'' Cherry has a beautiful and tender tone in every word that came out of her mouth.
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:53] Listening to the human Eaekna, it seemed that they were curious to keep this thing a secret. At least, used properly which was certainly something that she could agree with. People enjoyed using magic for their own personal gain, generally for the desire of power and to seek out pain upon others.

"I have no reason to share this, I believe that if you keep it to yourself then nobody else will try to replicate this style of magic casting. Though, people do tend to seek out information so be wise with who you use it around."

Turning back to the little one she was happy to answer her questions, they were valuable and required. If she might ever find herself there, it would be best to understand the customs.

"Oh it is perfectly fine, questions lead to answers. We only just met after all! Cruxati is within Gehenna territory, their city. We don't bow their because the people believe that only the slaves bow. When you introduce yourself, I guess do itas you have without the bowing.

Really, it is a bit silly but that is their customs. Took me a while to get used to most of their rules, but now I understand it all clearly."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:58] He looked at the fae and thought for a moment. He begun to wonder what magic the fae knew and if there was anything useful it knew that he could replicate.

"So miss Waydelle. Mind showing me your magic? Something that you would consider useful? I try to replicate magic after all." Asking a stranger to show their magic to some people would be disrespectful. To Eakna he was just wanting to learn more. He eyed the glowing fae and listened to it talk about its customs from where it lived. Customs Eakna already knew as he once lived in Crux as a child.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:04] Cherry joined her hands it made a sound like a clap and she gives to the fae one of her warmest smiles.

''Oh, I see, I should one day visit that place so it would be very helpful to know more about their customs.'' She happily response to the fae, after the girl listen to Eakna's words she glance over to him and then took her gaze back to the fairy.

''Oh that would be wonderful if you show us your magic, it's my first time seeing a fairy I would really like to see their power by myself. and maybe afterward I could treat you with some of my special desserts.'' Cherry added with giving to the fae a pleasant smile.
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:06] It would seem that this person was curious in seeking out magic, such that she would consider useful for people... Well now wasn't that just interesting, the fairy began to have a smile grow upon her face as she pondered what exactly within her large scale of knowledge might be worth showing off.

"Well, Eakna, I happen to know a lot of different magics. I am serious when I say a lot, I have learned ever single base element but lightning magic, with the holy combination to each piece as well. I've dabbled in time and nature magic, so I feel like everything I learned is useful. I know that I am able to help others, to heal and protect them in battles. I can keep myself sustained from nearly the strongest of blows as well."

Attention turning back toward the younger one, she was very interested in sweets and such. It was lovely to meet new people that were just so kind, it really warmed her heart.

"Visiting could be a great idea, but you must be careful if you were to head over. There is a specific route that you have to take to avoid the Thornberries, a group of rabble who enjoy robbing others... I wouldn't want anyone to get themselves hurt for trying to see another place on Agartha. It just isn't right."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:14] ah holy magic and combining the base elements with it. Then time and nature. What a treasure trove of magics. What could be useful though to him. Nature magic had it's abilities and it's ups and downs. Then each element was useful in it's own rights. Although time and earth are what really captured his eyes.

"Hmmm what all from time and earth can you show me Waydelle? You have peeked my interest."

He asked. Depending on what the fay show would determine what exactly he would write down. Time had many uses and earth seemed to be one of the stronger things he had observed so fall. Stronger in the since it was useful.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:17] ''Wow, Waydelle, you know a lot of magic!'' Cherry was concert of it, she did not know how to use magic at all...it seem like everybody it's just training or looking or know more about magic while she was just trying to make new friends and such.

Perhaps she should just...starts to join the others and looks and learn magic? ''Thornberries? whom are they? and how I can no cross with them anyway?'' She tilts her head slightly and stares at the fae for a moment waiting for her to respond.
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:26] It would seem that they were ready to be shown her magic. It was of course something she was willing to do, it was all for the process of helping others. To allow them insight into protecting that which they cared about.

"Well those are two very specific magics that you are interested in Eaekna. Time magic can sunder the defences of those you are again, even reverse wounds inflicted upon you. Could be used to slow others, to make you faster, so many useful capabilities."

Thinking about earthen magics there were even more to it. So many capabilities and ways that it could be used, though the fairy only used that which could best assist her toward stopping pain being inflicted.

"Earth magic is a tough, yet slow working magic. I find that the holy combination is the most excuisite part of it all because you are able to bulk the defences of those around you, to completely halt the movement of another and break certain magical spells. I guess the base ofearth magic, the normal force is used for slowing, trapping and harming others. Like all magic it is just a means to do something, the way that you use it defines who you really are.

Control over the very ground is something that you must take with caution, some spells are far more dangerous than others."

Turning back to the little one she figured that her curiosity needed to be sated with the knowledge which might be able to help her through life.

"The Thornberries are a group of people who live north of Gehenna's city Cruxati, they tend to force toll fees upon anyone who might get too close to their lands. If you don't pay I have heard that they hurt people which is really mean, I don't recommend you going anywhere near them alone. I don't want to hear anyone else getting hurt because of their nonsense."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:32] Time magic. He needed an example to study and see for himself. To mimic and copy it. "Waydelle.. please show me time magic. Show me the most basic spell. I think I could have it mimicked in a matter of moments if you showed me." He asked of the young fae. Well young compared to most fae at least.

He took out his notebook and a practice stone 'card'. He sat on the ground and begun to watch carefully waiting for the fae to show an example of it. When she brought up the toll fee his face frowned. He was all too familiar with it. People had kept him pretty much boxed in to one side of Agartha keeping him from exploring the lands.

He was annoyed by them but he still found his ways to travel around.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:38] cherry nods and stares at Waydelle, ditching everything the fae said about magic. ''Oh well, It's better not to cross with those guys. '' She answered to the fae.

''But why bad people like them are still making mess? aren't the tribunal or the fourfold suppose to take care of thing like that?'' Cherry's hands when to her mouth and she shake her head.

''Well, Actually the military or.. or the law applicators from Gehenna.'' She asked
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:45] The fairy waited for a few moments and it would seem that Eakna was not truly patient enough to allow her time to hold conversation and grant explanation of that which he was curious to learn about... Such was the way of certain people, but taking a deep breath she began to form three spheres around her body.

Spheres designed to rot that which it might touch. Turning toward the empty field the fairy would summon forth a tree from the ground with her power over nature, then she would then hurtle the orbs toward it. Immediately the new tree would wither and start to decay, quickly it aged to the point where it just crumbled into the ground as dust.

"There you are, time is a terrible thing when played with. You should use this knowledge wisely and be careful not to remove years from your life. It is a tricky thing to pick up, but since you are so adamite that you are capable. Was that enough for you?"

Turning back to the young girl it seemed that there was a large sigh before she explained it all about the Thornberries, it was a sad story which pained her.

"You'd think that they would have been dealt with by now. But I am afraid that each time something is tried, the group happens to have far too many people around. Perhaps there will be a movement to deal with them, but I'd rather not speak of the violence... It is a shame."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:54] He watched the fae form the three balls that would collide with the tree she had grown. It had aged it. Begun to whither it down. How interesting. "How do you form these orbs exactly?" He asked as he begun to write down notes and ideas.

On his notepad he had wrote down imbuing the orbs with a time speed rune. Making it to where it sped up the aging process on the person that collides with the orbs. He would have to think carefully about this. "Mind going in depth about how you perform the spell? I need to know every bit of detail about it. In order to mimic the spell. So give me even the boring details."

He said as he begun to fiddle around with the stone 'card'. Writing runes on it and powering it with mana. Testing specific things trying to put stuff into practice with how it could work.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:04] Deciding to leave behind Huangzhou for the time being, Caelitus came across a small group practicing magic and discussing a topic on some notorious bandits, it seemed. He sat back, observing and listening for the time being, noting the use of time magic, as well as nature magic, from the fae, something which impressed him. Both were rather difficult schools of magic to learn.

With all the questions being asked, Cael decided to step forward, intending to lend a hand to the fairy in their lesson, as he was fresh off studying various magics himself.

"Sorry to interrupt you all, my name's Cael, but uh, your groups talk's been quite interesting! If I may...", he'd give a nod to the fae, as well as the other two, "When they're shooting those spheres of time mana at a target, it's typically done by calculating time dilation and forcibly accelerating it via heavily condensed mana, kind of like when a cosmic magi summons a meteor, in away. It localizes time based on how much mana actually reaches the target, causing increasing damage per hit, due to the user's control over time in the area, i.e. the person, strengthening.", he gave a small smile, glancing to the fae to see if they confirmed what he said or not.
(Caelitus Nitor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:11] What a graceful performance, an exquisite and powerful magic indeed. Cherry looks to the fae and nods. ''it's true the violence it's a horrible issue but I was thinking in another way like maybe let them work or give then a non-hurting punishment.'' She sighed.

''But it's so bad when people starts to hurt or fight with each other Waydelle. I would love if they could stop, like the wars...I would like them to stop.'' Cherry mutterer and after that a guy with black cloths entered to the scene and explain the process of how someone could use Time magic.

A lot of big concepts that the little girl could not understands, not in all of their majority. ''Hi, My name is Cherry, nice to meet you Cael.'' She said looking to her side and giving him a big grin.
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:16] A few moments would pass, she was collecting her knowledge of time magic and how one would cast it upon another. It was actually rather simple, like most things but there were complex mechanics which worked within the casting of it. Before she started to explain everything it would seem that there was a little stranger who happened to approach, now that brought a large smile onto her tiny face as it would seem somebody knew their stuff about time.

"Well, look at you smarty. I appreciate your explanation because you happen to be right about that one. Hit the nail on the head, there you have it Eakna. Somebody to help you explain in far greater detail than I believe was about to be mustered up."

The smile didn't fade, the raw joyful emotions were ever presently burning within the eyes of this creature. When they were all finished talking she decided that Cherry had some rather interesting points to discuss.

"Now we wish for the same things little miss. I'd love to have all the wars and disaster quit within this country, to live in peace where everyone is relaxed. That is a real goal, one that I intend to work toward. A place where people are not fueled with the sins of their past, to live and treat everyone how they truly deserve to be treated. Respect and love."

Still, there were things that the fairy required to do. Many projects to be completed and people to be spoken to, for now she decided that it would be best to try and get herself off to search for that friend.

"I believe it is time for me to look for my dear friend, but it was a pleasure meeting all three of you. I believe our paths will once again cross, when that time comes I'll be sure to enjoy every moment."
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:28] Oh wow the explanation the stranger gave was perfect. Everything the man said was wrote down into his notebook then he would then look at the stone 'card'. Time to put the knowledge to the test.

The man would start inscribing on the stone taking his time to be very precise and exact on what he was writing. Little errors could make things go completely wrong. So he had to be careful with what he did. "So lets see... Time energy is being launched at the target and takes the calculations to figure out how much they should force the aging process.... let's see then I could in turn control that dilation on how much to accel it with my mana..."

With that he would make the card work in two parts. One part that casted and formed the orbs. The other part that would dial how much to increase the acceleration in the aging process.

The card would be done and he would stand up looking at a patch of grass. He would then begin to power the card with his mana charging up a dial bar on it then he would release that mana into forming the three orbs which he would launch at the grass patch. The grass would age quickly and then turn to dust just like the tree the fae had shown.

"Wow... I guess I'm getting better at creating these... Usu-" The stone card cracked. He would sigh and throw it to the ground. Time to transfer it over to the mythril card. He would clear his throat and speak again. "As I was saying... that was one of the quickest times I've had a card form properly. I suppose I'm getting better at making them. Seems it'll need to be transferred to one of my mythril cards next though. Thanks stranger."

Eakna thanked the man as he was happy that he had gotten some help.


(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:29] Cherry says, "I hope we can see you again Waydelle and maybe we can talk about peace."
[15:30] Cherry smile kindly to the fae.
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:30] Waydelle says, "That would be lovely."
[15:30] Eakna Almusta says, "Later Waydelle. Show me more in the future."
[15:30] Waydelle exclaims, "See you all later!"
[15:30] Cherry says, "We a teaa and cheesecake. "
[15:30] Waydelle started to fly away.
(Waydelle)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:30] Caelitus nodded at the man as well as the fae, "Have a good one, fairy, I do hope to see you again.
(Caelitus Nitor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:30] Cherry exclaims, "See you later!"
[15:31] Caelitus Nitor asks, "So, you use runes to makes these cards, eh?"
[15:32] Eakna Almusta says, "Well in a sense yes. I use my runewriting abilities to make my magic cards."
[15:32] Eakna Almusta says, "In turn they mimic the spell I want to recreate"
[15:32] Cherry says, "I'll go to the square"
[15:32] Cherry says, "See you later "
[15:32] Cherry says, "Mister Almusta and Cael."
[15:32] Eakna Almusta says, "Later Cherry"
[15:32] Cherry walks inside the walls
(Cherry)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:32] Caelitus Nitor says, "Hm? Ah, sorry, have a good one, little miss Cherry."
[15:33] Caelitus looks at the man for a moment, before pulling out a tome from his bag. "I was actually studying runes recently, can you tell me a bit about how you work?"
(Caelitus Nitor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:35] Eakna Almusta says, "Hmmm well I take in depth notes on spells I want to mimic then I try to recreate it."
[15:44] Caelitus Nitor says, "I was meaning, how you do that. I haven't really practiced runewriting myself, but runes themselves fascinate me a fair bit."
[15:47] Eakna Almusta says, "Hmmm well I put runes together to form a combo that would create the spell."
[15:55] Cael nods, sighing and flipping open his family's tome, opening to it's section on runes. "Sorry, it's just, a bit too simple of an explanation for me. I was hoping for a bit more in depth.", he said idly, skimming through the text on the pages. "Rune Magic is quite interesting, the act of pouring mana into a letter, and essentially giving it a mind of it's own. Enough runes all together could rival a person's sentience. And the things they can do with different levels of mana...", he trailed on, muttering a bit.
(Caelitus Nitor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:01] He looked at the card and then back to Cael. "Well for the time card it kind of was a bit difficult to make but still rather simple. To put it simply there are the two parts to it. The part that dials the amount of aging you'd do to a person. Then the part that actually forms the orbs can't be activated until after I finish dialing. So basically. They are connected basically through a logic rune. The amount of mana I put into the dial determines the strength of the orbs. "

He explained.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:08] Cael nodded, glancing up, between the card and Eakna, and back at his tome. Connecting two lines of mana and programming them with a goal, via a single rune, made it seem fairly simple, even if the actual details of it might be a bit more complex then that. "I see... So, you're in essence, casting a part of a spell in one section, then another part of the spell in a different section, and then connecting them via a linking rune that would have the two interact with each other... Alright.", he mulls it over some in his head, before closing his tome and standing.

"I'll have to research it more later on, but that helps some. I appreciate it... As learned as I seem, I'm actually brand new to spellcasting myself. I can't hardly cast anything... But, I've spent so long looking into everything, to try and figure it all out, that, I've picked up on some of it, even if I can't use it.", he chuckled.
(Caelitus Nitor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:10] Eakna nodded to the man.
(Eakna Almusta)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:11] Eakna Almusta says, "Good luck. Beleive it or not I know no magic."
[16:13] Caelitus Nitor says, "I'd believe it, considering you were asking a fae how to do time magic... It's not an easy magic school to learn."
[16:14] Eakna Almusta says, "I can't use magic without my cards. I have no affinity to any magic really."
[16:17] Caelitus Nitor says, "Well, I suppose that's not entirely true..."
[16:18] Eakna Almusta says, "Hmmmm well true"
[16:18] Caelitus Nitor exclaims, "You're one for cognitive magic, since you're using runes. It's a heavy toll on your mental state, but if it works, hey!"
[16:18] Eakna Almusta says, "Indeed indeed. It's what I can work best with."
[16:19] Caelitus Nitor asks, "I get what you mean. I may turn to that myself, given how I seem to work... Have you made any cards that work yet?"
[16:20] Eakna Almusta says, "Yup this time one works and then I have a meteor dash."
[16:21] Caelitus Nitor asks, "How do you use them, exactly? Just pull one out and leech out it's mana, or, do you have a trigger for when you, 'play it'?"
[16:22] Eakna Almusta says, "I pour my mana into my cards to activate it."
