"What is a magic circuit?" Primis touched her lips, tilting her head in curiosity.
"Let's say that, you need to create a fire." Foel casted a spell that let her reconstruct an artificial torch. She then approached Primis and crouched, stabbing the small torch on the ground. "To create a fire, you need to have oxygen and fuel. After that, an ignition is needed to spark life onto this torch.
"Mana is like a fuel, akin to this torch head that is covered with flammable substances, oxygen refers to the available material in the surrounding, and the ignition represents the magic circuit."
A blue fire burned brightly under the shadow of those two petite critters. The fire was reflected on Primis' pupils, enticing her to do the same, if not bigger than the one that had been casted by the tanomobi.
"Wooaa! Aunty Foel! There is a small flicker of runic arrangements in the air on the tip of your finger when the fire starts, is that what you mean by magic circuit?"
