Reminded of the topic of magic, Eliseline brought her Vasa out and tried to recreate the tool Savine made.
'Squashed sandpaper, steel in the middle, a tornado to spin it… and the whole thing connected through willpower.'
The first three things, Eliseline could create without problems. But when she tried to connect it all together, her mind couldn't help but steer towards logical, scientific phenomena that would solve the problem neatly.
She tried to do it the way Savine told her to, but every time she tried to, her mind would halt functioning.
Then, Eliseline tried to remember how Savine did it. She used the spell on Eliseline's Vasa, so the details of her work were clear in Eliseline's head. But even so, the process was odd. The three separate pieces were not connected with any scientific phenomena at all. They just hung there with nothing to support it, but they felt extremely sturdy and steadfast.
'It truly was magical…'
