Invitation (1)

Without further delay, Toz opened the grimoire and began reading the imprinted mana that described, conveyed, and explained the spell stored within it. He could tell at once that it would be quite the challenge to learn the spell in the same amount of time as he learned Dissolution. Or, it would have been if he didn't have mana vision.

It would be tricky for Toz to learn the spell even with mana vision, especially since it worked in a way that made it difficult for him to use mana vision while practicing the spell. But Toz looked forward to the challenge.

Toz dove into the world inside the grimoire as he began absorbing the information stored in the mana. As he slowly began realizing the spell's potential, the flames of his motivation soared.

However, something poured a bucket of ice water on those flames, startling Toz and pulling him back to reality.

Toz's head snapped up and swiveled back and forth as he analyzed the room.
