Magic 3

Nazaya's P. O. V.

The satyr seemed calm. I held back the barrage of self-blaming thoughts and tried to calm down as well. I shouldn’t have listened to Kyla. For now, I worried about Zoey and dad's reaction. They knew that I had taken it.


Aurelia's P. O. V. 

The panicked whispers of the witches didn't allow me to think. I banged my palm on the center table. “Witches! I need you all to calm down. If we want to figure out what’s happening… and how to go about solving it.“

They quieted down around me and I seated myself on the head chair.

"I'm assuming we have all figured out by now that it's the sealed power in the stone of Abiruzi breaking out that is making us feel this overwhelming surge of power in our bodies, which seems to keep… " I looked at my hands; they felt nearly numb with the amount of energy. The fingers were getting difficult to move. I looked up at the questioning faces of the witches again, "What we can do for now is keep releasing this energy in any way before our bodies are no longer able to take it. Disperse!"

There were whispers again while they were leaving the hall. "What does she mean, 'no longer able to take it?'"... "Pretty sure it means you will die."


Clara's P. O. V.

I charged the rock, breaking apart the molecules slowly turning it malleable. This usually drained me out but now my body was still energetically vibrating after the rock had turned malleable.

“It’s turning out great.” I smiled and turned to see who the voice belonged to.

Aisha. But she was looking to my right at Ash’s work. Two fish circling in a bowl. I looked back at my rock. I was yet to form anything distinguishable.

On language

I read old literature a lot. I have read current literature a lot as well. And even though there is a lot that I disagree on with the philosophies of those old writers, there is still so much wisdom that I do agree with. Wisdom that they gained from their own life and observations.  I can't help but marvel at their eloquence, how they do not use simple English. I highly value how they are able to use complex words which convey so perfectly what they want to convey with such finesse, the way they so fully seem to use the tools that language provides. I disagree with the ones who vehemently purport the use of simple English and laud the skill required to do so. Okay, I agree with the latter, it does require skill and is sometimes needed. But when and where you can use complex English, you should be free to do so. It is playing with words on difficulty high. I aspire to reach there. I do not care much for simple boring sentences that tell you things but do not infuse you with feelings...

  In the Queendom of 'Obliviousness', there lived a witch. Her business was doing terribly. She had committed crimes and lied and misled people and she wasn't trusted anymore. She then decided to release a disease causing particle in the Queendom to sell her potions. The disease causing particle was released, and some people died. She made a deal with the Queen and the newspapers of the kingdom to scare people further and in return she would give them half of her profits. The newspapers' front pages now screamed horror. And people were aptly very scared.  Now the witch announced that she had made a magic potion that could save everyone. The newspapers hyped up this potion. Forgetting her past misdeeds, people clamoured for this potion. After taking the potion, many got ill..but the witch said, 'Oh, but that's expected! That shows that the potion is working!' But even after taking the potion, people were catching the disease causing particle and the witch sai...

I am the same as I was. Still wake up later than I intend to. Change of place neither changed me nor did it feel like diving into cold water. I have quickly transitioned into comfort here. I hoped to wake up with the sun but the sun here rises earlier, so that's a challenge. Is it me or is the sun here more ruthless than it was in my earlier place?  Eager to see how I settle into the social networks and classroom dynamics. It's going to be a long eventful two years and I'm hoping I accomplish plenty and not disappoint myself. I hope to stay on top of my assignments; the research and internship parts seem intimidating but I am going to face them as they come. I want those periods to be enjoyable.
