Sorry, I'm currently sick and haven't had the energy to write or anything.

Aww noo! Chicken soup all around! Feel better, guys!

Will our characters eventually be able to use magic?

I'm sorry, but I am going to have to drop out. I really didn't want to, but I've fallen behind and I can't find the effort to write and yeah. Sorry. Good luck, though!

Of course! :) In this world, magic is sort of a science -- anyone can learn to use it. I plan for Spook to give a short crash-course near the end of the first mission.

Roy with magic. I think Lux might flip out just a tad bit over the idea.

Also I apologize if Roy's character comes off as annoying in this post, he's just a guy who is incredibly passionate about trees. He's generally passive with anything else, but as soon as trees are involved expect the guy to flip out.

Also I'm hoping there are some type of tree like monsters in the future. There might be some conflicts as Roy attempts to revere and protect the creature from the entire party.

Aside from that I'm required to post a certain amount in this thread for one of my college classes, so forgive me if at one point I being to describe the exact intricacies of a piece of tree bark that Roy is currently looking at.

Emma caught up with her not a minute later, and Lux smiled at her affectionate gesture, one that reminded her very much of her brother. In fact, it wasn't the first time she'd thought that Emma made a great sister. When she was younger, she'd even fantasized about Emma meeting Lowell under different circumstances. They'd click instantly and get married right away and then Emma really would be her sister!
