Rucks let out a large cough as he cleared his throat, finally able to regain his voice. His first attempt to speak was a mere whimper, but then he was able to formulate his words properly. [url=https://m.soundcloud.com/ellys-gudger/post-31]"Okay let's start with something simple. Do not wear Nymph clothing in the cold, it does not work and you almost die from hypothermia. That's something I just learned, but let's move onto something more complicated for a second"[/url] Rucks began, getting panicky as the reality of the tower set in although still shocked from the cold, [url=https://m.soundcloud.com/ellys-gudger/post-33] "Let's move on to the fact that at least four of us are mages, myself, mantis, white Mage as the little girl. I know this because I can sense the magical energies we all give off. Usually we hide these energies but since were of about the same level we can detect them since we are very adept at it. A weaker Mage would not be able to detect it. Keep that I'm mind when I say the Mage who made this tower was ridiculously powerful, clearly because they have hidden a whole range of magical attempts from all of us, at least no one has come forward to say they detected it. Firstly the fact that the weather changed outside the tower, that's kind of weather magic 101 but still, that was a big area. Secondly, timey-wimey inter dimensional portal that kind of felt like a less fluffy version of travelling to the dream. That's big magical thing number two, because mostly portals aren't real unless you have magic. Then we come on to the massive room inside of the tiny, tiny tower. That's some inter dimensional magic which I've never seen a Mage powerful enough to do. Not to mention the night sky, that is not a painting I saw a shooting star, I'm sure someone else did too. What are we dealing with here? This is a wizard unlike anything we have ever seen before, we are all very very good mages and none of us probably even come close to this sort of magic"[/url] This tower was breathtaking, incredible. No wonder so many had flocked to it in recent years. But Rucks couldn't help think that everyone was taking it oddly well - except maybe the dwarf but they never took we'll to magic. They preferred their metalworking and tinkering. The little girl hadn't even said anything, what was going on with her? She seemed to be just as powerful as any other Mage there, or perhaps she was just gifted at concealing her power. At the same time though she could be twice as strong and have very little experience hiding it. That was the only problem with detecting magic, it could only give you a rough comparison between yourself and another.
