You finish writing "Kirk," ".," and ".," and read on.
And now I am sure you are excited to get on with the first task, so here it is:
This week, simply attempt to cast your first spell, and report on the results! It can be any of the four types of magic, it just needs to be a spell. That's it! I wish you luck, young mage!
Your Mystical Mentor,
The Legendary El Cano
You finish reading and flip over the parchment to see if there's anything else on the other side. There isn't. This is your first assignment, then. Cast a spell. Any spell. The possibilities are endless….
You hear the distant clang of a bell, and it jolts you back to the real world. It's sixth bell already!
You stash the letter under your shirt, jump up, and push on the door. But it's stuck as usual. You ram the thick wood with your shoulder, but it doesn't budge. One more time, and it finally gives, sending you flying out into the morning sunlight. Up ahead, you can see Fizza, already approaching the road.
