. . .

Seeing him move up and down for a moment before speaking left Nira with a sense that he might have ment something in doing so, but as before she couldn't tell what. Maybe in time she'd learn to figure it out, if they stuck together that is. But for now she pushed it to the back of her mind and followed him.

As he paused outside for a moment, she looked around and had to admit that it was a nice little location, both for the number of blue flowers growing from the vines and the numerous little holes to hide in for safety. It wasn't anything she would personally stick to when the branches seemed far safer to her, but it made for a good temporary shelter.

Once he wandered in, she took a seat at the entrance of the hole and positioned herself so that she could keep an eye on anything that wanted to approach the tree. She didn't want to to get trapped in a confined space with someone she just met, but she trusted him enough to at least not worry about an attack from behind.

With that said and done she focused on listening to what he had to say, and it turned out to be worth it. It made sense to her that there would be a way to increase one's mana capacity, but to do so by a good 50 percent this early on was definitely a nice advantage. Thinking it over, she definitely wanted to be able to cast more uses of the shield and minor heal spells as well as maybe learning some offensive magic. Learning to restore her mana would be a step in the right direction if she did so... but maybe she could learn to sense mana at the same time.

Taking a moment to listen to his thorough explanation, she realized that it was a simple process that might take her a few tries to get down. Thinking about nothing wasn't exactly the easiest thing in the world for her, especially when she had a whole life's worth of experience on how to fill her time. But if this really was a first step to increasing her odds of survival, then she was definitely going to give it her best shot.

Taking a quick look at the surrounding area to check for any observers, she flittered up and out of sight into one of the tree branches and started trying to clear her mind. She wouldn't have to worry too much about a surprise attack because anything that tried to approach her along the branch would cause it to sag under its weight, the movement of which would give her a heads up.

After a few stray thoughts and some minor figiting she started to feel like she had entered the right state of mind and tried to find that sense of flow and energy that Haeo had described.
