FRANCIS ESTTEMORT'S POINT OF VIEW
It felt like a sixth sense had opened up in my head. I feel the magical energy flowing around me. In the rays of the sun, in the leaves, in the water, in the clouds, in the air, on the ground, and even in animals, in me, and in Henry, but strangely I don't feel any affinity with the elements around me, this sixth sense only it allowed me to feel the ambient magic, I wonder if all magicians feel it.
"Henry, do you feel the fluctuation of magic?"
He galloped from his mule and said:
"yes, I can feel some of what I remember for people, feeling a magic in the environment is essential to use your magic, but that doesn't mean that you have an Elemental affinity, some people are able to feel a fluctuation of magic but they are not able to do magic on themselves, because they do not have an elemental affinity. Even so, it is a beginning, feeling the magic, you can flow some magical energy from nature through your body, the magic of the environment is not the same as the present magic in your body, the magic present in your body can be manipulated with practice, but ambient magic is different, you cannot give commands to it unless you are an elf medium with domination of the arts of nature. influences it and induces it to flow through the body, for example: on top of a mountain there will consequently be more magical energy of the wind type, it is evident that much of this magic will flow in your body by the abundant amount, but it hangs in you whether this energy is going to be incorporated into your soul, or whether you are going to let it drain from you. And yet it takes years of practice to be able to trap magical energy in your soul.
"I understand, that is, half elves with a domination of nature do this naturally?"
"yes, consequently they are the only ones who can do magic in an unlimited way, because they always have the energy of nature merging with your soul, but this is much more complex than this brief explanation".
Looking into his eyes, I remembered that he was an elementary duo with two affinities, which was very rare, but I never saw him use high magic.
"but what about you Henry, why have I never seen you using magic?"
"simply because I never had anyone to use me. The old man was not a magician, so he did not know how to use, much less how to use someone to use magic"
"what a waste" I said trying to irritate my friend, but to my surprise he just looked down with a look of dismay, which made me feel bad.
"hey friend" he said trying to change the direction of the conversation "when we get to the capital we are going to look for a skilled wizard to use us to use high magic"
A smile broke across my best friend's face and he nodded.

HENRY DEATHEART'S POINT OF VIEW
After the chase with the silver wolf on the black river route, we walked for two more days, but finally we had arrived, a small village was forming around the pier, which made us more excited, there should be several traders selling interesting things, and our supplies were already running out, we ended up going to the base of the pier, but it looks like a ferry only leaves once a week, and tomorrow one will leave. The black river was a stunning and imposing figure, with more than five kilometers from one bank to another at that point, it was something colossal and immeasurable, it flows into the abyssal abyss, an endless crater that extended in the far east of Valgram, it was born in the great waterfall just below the floating castle of the Sindria kingdom, it is said that this castle floated on the edge of the immense waterfall and empties to create the black river. I wonder if I will ever visit the great and prosperous empire of Sindria, it was currently governed by the lily house, the silver eagles. Apparently Valgram and Sindria will join in the coming years, thanks to the arranged marriage of the second prince in the line of succession of Valgram, Prince Ashua of the house Garlem, with princess Daria of the house lirápia, this union certainly brought infinite benefits for the two kingdoms . Valgram will most certainly be ruled by Prince Baron Garlem, he must currently be about 20 to 28 years old, as the current king is very old, it will not be long before Baron takes the throne, the second in line of succession is Prince Ashua who will rule Sindria, and the third in line of succession is Prince Kairus, who today must be no more than ten years old.
Below the royal family is the king's right hand, the king's best friend and advisor, below him the king's official magician who must be the most powerful magician in the kingdom, below him are the Spades, a group of eight knights with the power and abilities that match that of the 'Ten after Merlin' who were the most powerful magicians in history.
I had a secret, I never told it, it is simply because there is no reason to tell it, but I feel that as we go to the capital, I will soon have to reveal it. What happens is that I have memories of before I met the old man, memories of a person, of a single person who helped me along my journey when I was with the slave trader, his name was Feihart, and he was the most amazing person in my life, he accompanied me every day in the beach village at the southern end of Valgram, he was like a father to me, until he had to leave me and go to the capital, and I never saw him again, I was just an orphan, and he reached out and lived with me until I was six, when he left and a few months later the old man found me and raised me, three years later Francis joined us, and a few years ago I I found out that Feihart became the king's right hand, the man who raised me today is the second most authoritative man in the kingdom.
FRANCIS ESTTEMORT'S POINT OF VIEW
We had been galloping for 20 minutes, looking for an inn to spend the night, the sun was setting and we had just seen the ferry schedule tomorrow, the ferry would leave at sunset. Henry was incredibly quiet, you could see how lost he was in his thoughts, as it was very rare to see him with his mouth shut for more than 5 minutes, except when he was sleeping or eating.
I slowed down Koshi's step to correspond to my friend, I looked at his low face and said:
"what are you thinking ..."
"AAHHHH" he said surprised "DON'T SCARE ME!"
I started laughing and said looking at my friend "I didn't scare you idiot, hahahaha !!!" I couldn't contain my laugh "you who were very lost in your thoughts, what are you?"
"no ..." he paused "it's nothing. Look, a stable inn, let's stay here."
"...IT'S OK."
