“Everybody knows that our world is more that meet the eyes. Magic is the most know phenomena and the most commonly recognised. But by no mean it is the only one, nor the most understood. It is a fact that we basically know so little on those phenomenon, that a lot of researcher says that we knows “nothing”.

In this book I will share what is known and some of the most common and/or accepted point which aren't proved. The point of sharing those ideas is to broaden you mind as some are quite incompatible but not without interest nor without basis.

The first of the three chapter will be focus on Magic.”

Excerpt of 'The power of the Individual' By Aranus Pracelius, ArchMagistere of King Stroncius IV. ______________________________________

This morning after the attack the mood was a little strange. Specifically for the two girls. You have to understand that both were in quite difficult “position”.

First Xia He, in the beginning she had shown a power quite unbelievable. Not that there aren't any magic to change the shape of object of living being; through those a rare. But the lack of chant, magical focus, nor real magical potential; if her friend was able to sense it; was the critical aspect. Yes some people could cast some magic without chant but certainly not something as hard as a partial but stable modification of a part of a living being with no after effect. And so, quite simply, not every one was accepting those sorts of capacity.

As for Tomoe, yes she was interest by that capacity of her friend. She was just intrigued; as said before because of her eyes, she knew personally quite well the life of someone who was not like the other; so there was no way she would do the same to her friend. But, and probably because of her past life as someone "strange"; she didn't know how to not hurt her friend, and she was clealy aware of Xia He discomfort!

Not only that, but you had to add the fact that the titan had killed for the first time, and not just one person! And obviously she wasn't someone who could just shake it like that. So she herself wasn't comfortable; plus she, of course, didn't had a good night.

So for two hours or so they were silent, both aware that was completely abnormal for the other but simply unable to start a conversation. And with that silence, grew their discomfort and their fear. The first who spoke was Xia He who couldn't take it any more, she had realise that this friendship was too unique and important. Not that she wasn't friend with the other people in the caravan, but simply none were of her age and the nearest were all male. So...

Xia he, after voicing her frustration quite bestially - Chose: ask what you want or read, or i'll kick you out!

Tomoe, turn with a shocked expression for a few second before bursting out laughing, which made Xia He pout.

Tomoe, putting a false sad face - So I can't have a hug?

That time it was Xia He whose face shown disbelief before bursting out laughing while hugging Tomoe.

Tomoe - So I take that your “thing” isn't a easy subject? Xia He, separating from the girl - No not really. But I know nothing about it, just that I can do it.

As she said that, face turn ahead she put glances at her neighbourhood.

Tomoe, with a serious tone - Xia look at me in the eyes.

And when the uneasy girl had finally done it she continued.

Tomoe - Don't you see anything strange? Xia He, speaking without thinking - No...

With the scowl of Tomoe she understood, and laugh awkwardly.

Tomoe, laying her head on her friend's shoulder - Don't. I like that part of you. You've never showed me anything about it, and that made me really happy you know?

Xia He didn't know what to answer, and before she fumbled herself because she was rushing for one, she heard a soft voice tinted with pain.

Tomoe - hum...You know I don't know anything about it too, no one in my family had anything like that.

And that was all they said that morning, but each time they change who had the reins they exchange their “head positioning” too. Noon came with a rest, and they had more or less regain their “easygoing” mood. The afternoon passed silently between the two but the atmosphere was much better.

That night like each other they were sleeping near each other, but none could sleep. Xia He rapidly couldn't take the awkwardness of Tomoe and said softly but forcefully

Xia He - You really want me to kick you three way to next week don't you? Tomoe chortle a bit and asked shyly - No but... Can't we sleep together tonight?

Xia He a smile bloom on her lips open her arms and blanket. Without missing a bit and blushing Tomoe came in taking her blanket too.

Tomoe - Thanks. Xia He, putting Tomoe's head on her bosom - You welcome! Tomoe, stroking her head where it was said with a smile part teasing and part shy - huuumm.. good cushion. Xia He, pouting quite “fiercely” - You'd better let me enjoy it tomorrow! Tomoe, clucking - With pleasure!

And they sleep without another word. Both had a really good sleep that night, so good that they were woken up by the “soft and gentle” voices of Master Chen, which could probably had woken up a hibernating deaf bear!

They literally jump awake, hand on her kodachi for one and on the roof of the carriage for the other. The booming laugh, who was heard from everyone, made them understand, and blushed. Tomoe even run in the carriage which obviously made every one laugh even more.

Master - Girls you have a half candle time to prepare. He looked at the “spectator” - The show is over now go pack! Waiting to be alone with the girls - You two impressed me yesterday.

On those words he walk away not minding them any more.

In the days after the calm was again blanketing the caravan, and the two little girls return to their chatting. But one was observing them more than ever. Chen knew that Tomoe wasn't the kind of woman who could just put her “first kill” away like that. But she had visibly found a way to deal with that, quite a special one!

The night after as said Tomoe became her friend cushion, so she was spared the nightmare. The nights after, every nights after in fact, none said anything but as if it was the most natural thing, they keep sleeping together. Naturally they were made fun of, and the shy titan would always show a cute blush only to be “saved” by the “fury”. It culminated the tenth day of the second month, 5 days after the attack; when someone called them “the wifes”. Sadly that was a bit too much for Tomoe and she escape the teasing by running in the forest.

Xia He, with a voice so frozen all listening took a step back - You. Stop. Now.

And she ran after the disappearing form.

She pounced on Tomoe after some minute of running. Yes she was faster but not by much, Tomoe really was fit. The two tumble and she used her barehanded mastery to end with Tomoe's head in her bosom on top of her, and her leg locking the swordwoman's ones.

Looking down the titan was furiously blushing, that much away of “frying” her brain. She sighed an stroke her friend's head gently, calming her in a few minute. But none of them moved after.

Tomoe, with a shy small voice - sorry... Xia He - Don't be. And you should be proud to be my wife!

Blushing again Tomoe struck at her shoulder, a rather cute onomatopoeia going out her mouth.

Xia He - What? Am I not the most beautiful, sexy, gorgeous and stunning woman you have ever seen?

Even before she could finished Tomoe was laughing like a madwoman, which of course made Xia He "pout" which made her laughed even more. A good minute or two were necessary for her to stop, and a faint teasing smile adorned her lips while she dried her few laughing tears. She moved gently to ask for the still pouting girl to let her go. Getting up on her hand looking down at her pouting friend, she prepared to get up in hurry.

Tomoe - Beautiful, gorgeous and stunning? I don't think so...

She got down a little and brushed her lip on the cat ear and said softly

But sexy you are!

And then in the same movement she push hat her hand while kissing lightly on Xia's lips and got up in haste wanting to go away a faint blushed on her cheek. But once she was standing, she saw the “deep red total face blush” of her still lying friend to stunned to move or say anything.

She turn away to hide herself, putting her hand on her face which was beginning to turn to a violet crimson. She didn't really knew why she did that! She wanted to tease her friend who was gently mocking her, and she though it was a good coming back teas. But now, her face heating up from the inside, her shyness crushing the roof, and some other feeling mixing themselves; the teasing was strongly coming back against her.

A few minute latter none of the two took notice of the the rustling approaching. Master came on this scene not understanding it at all. One on the ground clearly still breathing, albeit not quite peacefully, the other turn back face in hand, and the two blushing like young sheltered virgin who saw for the first time a male “material”. Snickering, he came closer to them, and saw how oblivious they were of their surrounding.

Master - GIRLS!

They startled quite wonderfully and look at him surprise as if he just teleport here.

Master, closing on them - I have quite a few thing to say.

Xia he rose quickly, to be literally pull the ears with Tomoe.

Master pulling a little bit more Tomoe's ear - First don't run away alone in the forest. The he pulled Xia He's one - Don't go after someone in the forest alone to! He lessened a bit his pulling - There are danger you can't handle! He pulled again but at both this time - And more than anything never be that oblivious of your surrounding again! You didn't notice me coming and I sure wasn't trying to be sneaky.

He let them go his lips curving by the sight of them smoothinf their ears. He looked at them another second or two before returning to the camp while telling them to come back in five if they didn't want to have him to spank them to yesterday!

Someone asked me why i was putting bullet point on my dialogue. (That was at the prologue, but I think it's better to reply here, too much a bother (for me and you probably^^) to go there again.

I do it to ease thing. Some use colour to make the dialogue more visible, I chose the bullet point. I don't see how i would use it in a stories, it's simpler for me than colouring it, and it's clear enough.
