《Insignia》"The Tenyi" Ch 24. Summoner lessons
Advertisement
Master: So it's true. Your father was an elementia who was affinity to the normal elements. Fire, wind, light, dark, etc. Your mother on the other hand had a rare affinity.
Luna: You told me this, summoning right?
Master: Indeed. You are a summoner Luna. More specifically you're the same type of summoner as your mother.
--- Chapter 24 ---
Luna: How do you know I'm the same type?
Master: The glow, it's only done that with your mother.
Luna: So that means my summoner ability is like my moms.
Master: Uh to be honest i'm not sure. It's not really supposed to do that. In all my years of life I’ve only seen you and your mom's paper do that.
Luna: Oh. So does that mean we are special or something?
Master: The monsters your mom was able to summon monsters that normal people can't. She was SS+ rank for a reason. So I'd say so.
Luna: Wow. So how does summoning work?
Master: I could tell you but it would be better if someone who is a summoner tells you.
Luna: And who's that?
The master snaps his fingers and says “Come in.”. The door creaks open as Tilda, the fortune teller walks in.
Luna: You're a summoner?!
Tilda: Mhm.
Luna: I thought your Arcana was fortune telling.
Tilda: No, that's just a skill I learned.
Luna: Oh ok, so how does it work?
Tilda: Listen closely ok? When you first start out you need to perform a ritual. This ritual will grant you a familiar, your familiar is a connection to the plane you will summon from. Having this connection allows you to summon.
Luna: That seems easy enough.
Tilda: I'm not done. Upon getting a familiar you need to make pacts with monsters through meditation. And to summon you need a focus.

Luna: A focus?
Tilda: FOCUS! A focus is an item that actually summons and maintains a connection. Focuses come in all different shapes and sizes. When summoning a monster an image appears on the focus and they summon. It costs mana to keep them on this plane.
Luna: Wow, what's your focus?
Tilda pulls a necklace out of her shirt as if she wanted to hide it. Luna can almost make out a picture on one side but Tilda quickly flips it. On the other side is a blank area where a picture could go.
Luna: Aww that's cute. What's the picture on the other side?
Tilda: ...Nunya
Luna: Nunya?
Tilda: Nunya business.
Luna: …
Tilda: hehe. I have another focus, I use these mainly.
She pulls out her deck of tarot cards.
Luna: Oh wow there focuses?
Tilda: Kinda, there not conventional. There specifically for me to use.
Luna: Oh do you have special summons to?
Tilda: Mhm.
Luna: What are yours?
Tilda: … Tarot cards?
Luna: Oh. That does make sense. Can I see one?
Tilda: Yah sure.
Tilda pulls out a card. The Fool. She whispers something before throwing it, as it's about to hit the ground, it glows a bright yellow and starts to morph. It morphs into a tall slender figure dressed in jester like attire. Wearing a white smiley face mask that covers all but the mouth.
The Fool: You're called Miss Tilda.
Tilda: Sorry Fool, I was just showing how to summon.
The Fool: That is fine. If I am no longer needed I will be returning.
Tilda: Ok.
The fool glows before returning to card form. It flies over into Tildas hands. She puts into her tarot deck case.
Luna: That was- Incredible!
Tilda: Hehe thanks.
Luna: So when do we start.
Tilda: Whenever you want.

Tilda begins setting up the ritual. But once again our story is elsewhere. In a dark room, is the mysterious, and evil Astra, with his group behind him. Before him, taking a knee is Stacy. He had just returned after losing to Ame.
Astra: You failed Stacy.
Stacy: Just give me a bit, I can beat that bitch.
Astra: We both know second chances aren't offered.
Stacy: Wait!
Astra lifts his hand but before he does anything, Nero, the one in a lab coat speaks up.
Nero: Astra, might i advise something.
Astra: What is it Nero.
Nero: Look at him, he's barely damaged, it would be such a waste to off him or make him like the rest.
Astra: What are you proposing Nero.
Nero: Me and the doc need a subject for a little project, and he's so hellbent on killing this girl. He hasn't taken any significant damage that he would need to undergo “that” treatment.
Astra: If that's what you wish, then I will allow it.
Nero: My humblest thanks Astra.
Nero crouches down in front of Stacy.
Nero: So you want power. Right?

8 52Silverwing: Guardian
In the grand city of Horizon, Chase Silverwing is the people's protector, the guardian sworn to defend against all threats that might come for his city, or at least he tries to be. Past mistakes and tragedies have left him more of a fragile knight than a soldier who would fight to defend his home and more of a follower than a hero who inspires others to rise. But when his beloved city is threatened by a threat no man has ever faced before in his time, Chase will need to pick up his broken pieces and rise to become the guardian he's supposed to be or be hit with the final blow that will forever shatter his fragile world.
