Magic lesson

Seraphina's words of encouragement lingered in my mind as we moved to a quiet section of our chambers for my magic lesson. The room was spacious, with tall windows allowing a soft breeze to drift in, carrying the scents of the garden below. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves and focus on the task ahead.

"Alright, Elara," Seraphina began, her voice steady and reassuring, "let's start with the basics. Remember, magic isn't just about power; it's about control and connection. Feel the wind, understand it, and then guide it."

I nodded, though my heart was racing. My past attempts at wind magic had been disastrous at best. I closed my eyes, focusing on the sensations around me, just as Seraphina had taught me.

"Feel the breeze," she continued, her tone gentle yet firm. "Let it flow through you. Don't try to dominate it; instead, think of it as an extension of yourself."
