"" Were back. ""
" Welcome back, we were just discussing what magics we think you are going to choose Loretta, I guess that is why you came back so soon as well. "
" Yes Master. "
" Before all that tell us if you two like each other! "
"Settle down mom, and yes I really like Solomon so far, I hope the feeling is mutual. "
" Of course it is I cant wait for us to spend more time together. "
" Eeeek I am sooo happy that we got such a perfect daughter in law so quickly, what about you Han? "
" Uhh yeaahh I thought we would have to wait hundreds of years before Solo got a girlfriend, I really hope it works out. "
" Anyway can we start choosing the magics I am to eager to see what Loretta will choose. "
" Alright you, settle down I will pull the screen up for her, here you go choose a minimum of three and a maximum of ten. "
" Yes Master. "
After that Loretta started to look into space. She just so happened to have been looking at Solomon when she started to stare off. Being stared at by her dark abysal eyes made Solomon shiver a little and then exit her line of sight. After that Solomon was kind of curious about something and asked his master a question.
" Master is there anyway to see a screen someone else is looking at? "
" Only if you are much stronger than the maker of the screen or if the screen was meant for more than one person to look at. "
" Ok, thank you Master. "
After that the group spent thrity minutes waiting on Loretta to choose. The mainly talked about miscellaneous stuff. Solomon asked Ali and Sham a few different things about Loretta and some of the answers he got were surprising. Like how one of her favorite hobbies is to watch actual wars, she will find two warring countries post up and then enjoy the scenes for a few days. She treats them like plays. She doesnt just watch though sometimes she likes to participate . . . . according to Sham she has been in 30 different wars throughout her hundreds of years of life. Sham seemed proud when he was answering about Lorettas feats.
After some time Loretta finally spoke.

" I know what magics I will choose Master. "
" Hohoho good, now tell me. "
" Yes Master I choose Samsara Manipulation Magic, Vacuum Manipulation, Solidify Magic, Word/Letter Magic,and ...... Fertility Magic. "
" HOHOHO thinking ahead such a smart student, and you chose some very hard to learn but immensely useful magic. "
" Master will you tell me what the magics she chose do please? "
" Of course, Samsara Manipulation Magic allows the user to use their or others Samsara Wheel to either heal with natural life force or to steal the life force from others. Vacuum Magic allows the user to take away and destroy space and manipulate in ways Space Magic wouldnt allow. Solidify Magic allows the user to solidify anything and at latter levels even allows the user to manipulate an object in a way similar to Alchemy except easier. Word/ Letter Magic allows the user to imbue power into there voice similar to Language Magics, but with the added utility of empowering there writing and letters. Fertility Magic cannot be used by males and it is very self explanatory. If you want more in depth answers Loretta has them, now scram us adults have more discussing to do. "
"" Yes Master. ""
" So can you give more in depth answers please? "
'sigh' " Yeah I guess. "
" Sweet! "
" Alright so Samsara Manipulation Magic allows the user to manipulate life force using the Samsara Wheel to either heal the selves or other people it also lets the user to steal away life force from the surroundings or even the users enemies. A Samsara Wheel is something everything living creature is born from million year old rocks to newborn dragons, its is something that controls the life of everything. Many magics attempt to manipulate the Samsara Wheel but most just kill the user."
" Sounds powerful and extremely useful, does that mean that you can have infinite lifeforce or even stop aging. "
" Only at high levels.You can even steel the life of others and fuel your own, but be careful because doing that can cause mutations in your body, some good some bad. Vacuum Magic allows the user to litterally steal and take space as oposed to the simple manipulation of space using Space Magic. Vacuum Magic isnt stronger or weaker than Space Magic it just allows different types of manipulation such as making black holes or even seperating enemies form that plane existence and much much more. "

" WOW! That sounds insanely powerful. "
" All magics are at later levels it all depends on the user. Anyway, Solidify Magic at earlier levels allows the user to litterally solidify anything to a harder state through different means, water needs its molecules to lose energy or even turning air hard with pressure as well as a low temperature. At later levels you can change one material into a different harder material such as silver into mythril. "
" Doesnt sound as powerful but is definetly useful depending on the circumstances. "
"That is were you are wrong Solidify Magic can make water hard enough to crush space.
" Oh damn. "
" Word/ Letter Magic allows you to create your own language of power there are instances of languages being stronger than even stronger than Dragon Magic. It allows you to make stronger spells using the same spells as other people, you can also make enchantments stronger through the letter empowering. "
" Another extremely useful and powerful magic. "
" Fertility increases the chance of impregnation as well as higher birth rates, it also increases the life force of the user. "
" Definetly useful for Legendary Beasts like us. "
" Yep thats why I chose it. "
" So do you actually want to marry me in the future? "
" Well in my hundreds of years of life you are the only beast that is at least at the same species level as me if not higher, as to whether I actually want to spemds the rest of my long life with you ..... well only time can tell. "
" Does the God of Time take bribes? "
" What why? "
" I have the chance of marrying a perfect woman, but she needs the opinion of father time, I just wanted to know if he could put in a good word or two. "
" Oh ...... OH! "
" HAHAHA your face! "
" Shut up you silly boy, hehe, I wasnt being serious about the time thing btw. "
" I know, but my dad said the best way to get a pretty girl to like you is to make her laugh so I took my chance. "
" Thankyou for the compliment Solo but Im not that easy. "
" Then I will have to charge you for that joke. "
" Huh but ...... fine, what do you charge? "
" One joke is one kiss on lips, Interest is one kiss for every day you miss. Anyway bye it was a pleasure meeting you, dont forget the interst. "
" Wait hold on 'sigh' I will give you a kiss, but only cause you are smooth. "
" Hehehe best day in my life. "
After and hour of hanging out Ali, Sham, Shie, and Han decided to leave. Both of the kids as well as Aopara walked them to the clearing in front of the waterfall to see them off.
" Alright Loretta Mom and Dad are going to miss you if you want to visit us we will be living with Solomons family. Solomon make sure to spend time with Loretta in the future."
" Yes Mother in Law. Goodbye to you aswell father in law. "
' Why does he just glare at me I know he can talk, I guess he really doesnt like me yet. '
" Alright Sham stop scaring the kid he isnt that bad. "
" Fine Ali, you seem like a decent kid Solomon but Im going to keep my eyes on you. "
" Done tell me that head can fly around Sham, although that would be kinda neat, alright ifd it can fly you have to show me at the house. "
" Oh shush Han you are embarissing our sons new father in law already. Solo we are all heading out come visit when you can or when you are having trouble advancing. "

And yet, it took only one twist, one twist of fate, before all plans he had laid out for the rest of his life went down the tubes. Join him as he traverse the lands of Fymia, where the arcane had faded into the annals of time and yet persist in the most mundane of things.
