Ahnasha nodded in agreement. "Conjured weapons are essential when you can't rely on keeping your belongings. I think Meesei has taught every one of us at some point. At least those of us that use magic. Meesei is...well, basically the most powerful lycan in all of Tamriel. Studied magic all her life. I think the only mage I have met that was perhaps more powerful was this vampire that was probably a thousand years old or something. If your father could ignore the fact that she is Argonian, he would probably like her." Again, Ahnasha quickly turned her attention back to Fendros before taking a drink of her tea. "Although, I wouldn't think that it would be your birthsign alone that kept you from being a mage. You probably just didn't have that much of an interest. When I was learning magic, I remember reading that atronachs tended to be some of the most potent mages, especially when fighting magical opponents. Atronachs have much larger reserves of magicka than other mages of the same skill level, and of course, part of the energy from any spell that strikes you is absorbed into your own magicka reserves. I think it cuts the effects of spells essentially in half. I don't really understand how the stars a person was born under can affect someone in such an extreme way, but I know that volumes have been written trying to figure that out. I've always found birthsigns strange. I don't even think I have one, and if I do, I wouldn't know it. The atronach sign is probably the most...obvious."
