A Ward with Powers (Open) (CLOSED)

[Jasen "Dreamer" Masters]

"Isabella Hart..." he said, almost in a whisper. It sounded eerie, but it wasn't by choice, he was just in thought again. The sudden change came to Dreamer unexpected, so he had to assess the situation. First, he should get to know her, she would be his apprentice.

"What can you do?" Dreamer asked.

[Isabelle hart]

"Isabelle," He whispered.

It was slightly creepy and she almost had the urge to back away but she didn't with that odd look in his eyes. Then he asked what she could do. Well she had been training herself so not much.

"I'm very slow learning so I only know a few healing spells and now learning a fire spell," said Isabelle, she looked down, avoiding his gaze, "I am not a good student. You can change your mind about being my teacher."

[Jasen "Dreamer" Masters]

Dreamer was still thinking, so he was caught surprised when she offered to back down from his offer. "I offered, you accepted, what's done is done...now you will need to decide while path of magic you wish to take first..." he said, tilting his head up more so they could stare at each other. "Magic cannot be taught, nor can it be learned, while experimenting in the different branches, you must choose one before you can pursue the other".

Here he was again, Making her choose.

"I choose dark magic. I want to bring someone to life and control a dead army and take over Camelot," said Isabelle with a mischievious look in her eyes.

She watched as Dreamer's eyes opened with shock and then she giggled hilariously. "I was completely joking," said Isabelle as she stopped herself from laughing, "Actually I want to help people with healing magic, except I don't know the different... branches of the Craft."

[Jasen "Dreamer" Masters]

Dreamer's eyes did raise in shock as he listened to Isabella say she wanted to command Dark magics. His own Darkness, his own magic, hungered for the apprentices potential. Then just as quickly it ended with her saying she had only been kidding. Dreamer let out a sigh of relief, It would be much more comfortable teaching her white magic.

"There are separate branches, elemental magics deal's with the elements fire, water,air,earth. Psychic magic is difficult to explain, but it responsible of visions and moving objects without a verbal command. White magic, which you will now be learning, is to repair what has been broken. Black magic, which you will not be learning, deals in destruction".

"Do you understand?" he asked.

[Isabelle hart]

Isabelle hoped Dreamer didn't dislike her for joking, she was joking of course. The different kinds of magic all sounded interesting, except the Dark magics. She was glad that with white magic she could help people, she never wanted to hurt someone with her powers or do something wrong. It wasn't in her nature.

"That sounds very exciting," said Isabelle, "If I am using white magic to help could I... bring someone back to life?"

She wondered this because if she grew powerful enough she could bring back soldiers who had died in a war or in a fight. It wouldn't be a bad thing. She could bring back a child that died in childbirth or a mother.

Dreamer's eyes seemed to blaze for a moment, and before he could control himself he said,"Don't Ever Try That!". Dreamer looked at his apprentice critically for a moment before he caught himself and coughed into his fist, apparently he needed a lesson on control. "Dark magics can summon spirits to occupy bodies, celesterial beings and creatures can be summoned by other fields, but to truly bring anyone back from the dead is impossible...".

Dreamer shook his head, ruffling his hair,"Even if it were possible, and its not, there is a price to everything...if you even try to bring someone back, you could die. Simple as that".

[Isabelle hart]

Isabelle looked hurt. No one had ever yelled at her before about magic. She stepped away and looked down. It wasn't her fault that she didn't know everything. It was fate. Fate killed her master.

"I'm sorry," She said, "I was just thinking if any of the castles knights died we could bring them back. Not to do evil but good. Like healing for the dead. I... didn't mean to offend you."

[Jasen "Dreamer" Masters]

Dreamer drew quiet for a minute,chastising himself for losing his control. "It's not always clear what is right, and what is wrong..." he said, "...Your intentions are noble, but bringing back the dead will always end in death". Dreamer stared for a minute, to determine if she understood, he was unsure. "I was not offended so much as...." Dreamer considered his words for a moment before saying, "We carry the burden of Power, us Mages, and it is up to us to determine how we use that power, how we carry that burden, and how we deal with it....Because people die, and sometimes, we cannot stop what is to be".

Thinking back, Dreamer spoke from experience.

[Isabelle hart]

Isabelle nodded. She understood but didn't like it. She found her own master, a good mage was killed and she didn't know by who. She hated death, death was an enemy that you could never beat and never see. Isabelle felt like she was going to cry, this sadness and memories were too much for her.

"I understand. My hopes and dreams of using magic to help will be denied because of what I want to use," said Isabelle with sadness in her voice, "I must be going now. Lady Le Faye will be angry if I am late anymore. Where should I meet you later to speak about my joining?"

[Jasen "Dreamer" Masters]

Dreamer wanted to say something ,comment on her hopes and dreams, but found the endevaour pointless. At this point in time, Isabella had to sort those emotions out for herself. Dreamer nodded his head as she said she needed to leave to attend to her duties. She asked where she should see him about enrolling in the guild.

"You will need to enroll like every new mage, at the guild, you will most likely meet Merlin", Dreamer smiled, "He tends to hide away to enroll new mages, after that, meet me in my study up the stairs in the guild". Dreamer kept his smile as he turned to leave, pausing to say, "...And welcome to apprenticeship, Novice Hart". Then he turned and walked away to attend to other matters.

[Isabelle hart]

Isabelle was worried on meeting Merlin. She had seen him once maybe twice and now she had to enroll and train for a very long time. What if she messed up? Dreamer told her to meet him in his study. She nodded and headed off to Lady Le Faye, she would definitely be late.

Only one thought entered her mind as she headed down the corridor, would she be good enough to join the guild?

((OOC: So I guess this thread is closed. I'll see you in the study later?))
