《Rigor and Mortis》Chapter 7 Seeking

"Practical lesson first, what kind of spells do you even want? A mage can have every spell, mana limits aside what do you cast in a combat situation, the one where the stakes are highest." Barum sits down and begins to reveal the dimension of the puzzle.
"Well, I have experience from tabletop games. Spells like web are what I would say is the best spell, because it protects while it attacks. It can counter a group of foes, keep them away or near the fighters, and make them easier to hit for everyone." Its also cheap, you can cast it as soon as you are level 3, such a good spell.
"Hmmm" they cup their chin and appraise me again "Good answer, but there is a fundamental problem. Mental overhead. You have to not look at the situation and protect yourself. Mages must also consider what spell is best for the situation and attempt to cast safely. That often takes time to think and the mental cost can be taxing. The most important attack is the basic spell you rely on when you do not have the luxury to choose otherwise. The Seeker's Dart is the fundamental rock most mages rely on because it takes the least mental overhead. No aiming no chance of failure."
That tracks, DnD characters are freaks that don't care if they are in a field, cave, hell, or are falling while attacking. Aiming while running is not something I would want to bet my life on. "I need the basics before the grand strategies and plans matter."
They then sweep their hand, and tap their fingers into the air at an invisible menu. "I haven't promised you anything, but lets teach you Seeker's Missile. You are going to show me what you can do in return. I don't get much excitement in the sticks." Then white ethereal energy swirls and unfurls into a scroll of pure energy dancing in ethereal wind. "Put your hand on it."

After failing to grasp the scroll, I flip my hand palm down on the scroll, then stars split before me and the menu opens.
You are being taught Seeker's Dart
Accept?
Decline?
I tap accept, and then the screen closes, Now I have my first spell and a point to learn another...

Sarcophagus
At the culmination of a galactic conflict, an experienced sergeant is once again deployed on the battlefront. After a series of events, he perishes and awakens in a foreign body, far stronger than he could have imagined, where the laws of nature as he knew them have ceased to exist. But in this primitive world ruled by kings and monstrosities and magic, two forgotten terrors are emerging. The Elven King in the south has assembled an army and seeks to establish a new age, while in the north stirs the ancient corpse of the White King and his desires to plunge the realm into an eternal frost. But then these seemingly undefeatable powers make a grave mistake. They assail the reincarnated vampire lord. And they find themselves facing a greater terror than anyone could have imagined—Reith Lornhart.

The world is still. Old times have turned into new legends, and there is silence disrupted only by the breeze. Just not entirely. Fractions once owned and employed by the Kingdoms are rumored to have split into there own paths.

But when his outlawed gift becomes exposed, and his only brother becomes a lie, he must sprint into the world of silent pain and mystery to grow as a man and in power. And avoid the unforeseen consequences.
