As she worked on getting water with magic, Nira was pleasantly surprised by the sensations the process created, and how they brought memories back to the surface. She had long forgotten the sensation of morning dew while trapped in the hospital, but as a little kid she had once rolled around in the morning grass with her dad, back when her body was strong enough to fight back for a few hours at a time. The moments of fun she had back then were nothing to the freedom she had now, but she cherished them nonetheless. Her skin getting colder as her attempt pushed on, the memory snippet was pushed aside as she opened her eyes and saw the mist gathering around her hands. As quick as her reaction of wonder though, it dispersed, leaving her to quickly try again. As she watched the process through fully this time, she could only describe the sight as mystical, settling down in her heart that this was indeed what she had been so inspired by in her last moments. Her breath dissolving her progress, Nira stopped for a moment to check on if her attempts were yielding something, as well as to see if the system would respond. A part of her wondered if it really would be as simple as just asking, but indeed it seemed like it was. Half surprised, half thankful, she was glad to see that she was indeed making progress towards water orb, though the system was calling it aqua orb, which was interesting. Mana shape also seemed to be developing, which was probably due to her attempts at externally recreating mana structures. If she could learn how to imbue those structures with different properties, she might be able to solve the problem of flight before she lost her natural ability to do so. Returning to the list, several skills stood out to her as things she should focus on next. Plant, monster, and magic analysis would be invaluable in the long run, since it would give her a better understanding of the world. Speaking of, she wondered if there were other forms of analysis, like mineral or culture analysis. It would make some sense for scholars to have that kind of skill, but on the other hand it was more likely that just proper study and memorization was encouraged by this world. There wasn't any skills that just did things for you as far as she had seen, so it was probably safer to assume that though basic tools were provided, there wasn't any easy road here. Looking at the list, there were several other skills she was curious about. This time she wanted to try doing this silently, so she mentally asked, [color=a062de]*System, please describe faster, stronger, taming, and point strike.*[/color] Just as the tree shuddered underneath her. Promptly freaking out and jumping into the air, this was the first time Nira wasn't deep enough in her own thoughts to notice the weird deer, right before they promptly got spooked themselves and darted away from the herb patch she had visited earlier. Looking around with wide eyes, she wondered if anything had happened to the tree to cause this. The only things she could see around herself though were normal animals on the forest floor and Femus testing some magic from his branch. Deciding to ask him about it later, she tried to calm herself and returned to her attempts at water magic. Remembering the sensations from earlier, Nira made a guess that maybe she'd get more mileage out of incorporating tactile memory alongside visualization as she attempted to make water magic. Closing her eyes and focusing again, she visualized a orb of water forming between her hands, recalling the cool sensation of running water from a sink. She would keep at it time and time again without opening her eyes until she could actually mover her hand and feel water, meditating as needed.
