Ray went to a long cabinet beside the wall and searched for something while Iris followed him with excitement. He soon found what he was searching for, a little bottle with a golden substance in it that he presented to Iris.
"If you want to be tested, you must drink this potion and after that, I will have to read you."
"To read me?" she exclaimed.
"It's just a way of saying, my magic will try to bring yours to the surface, if there is any, and then I can study its intensity and quality. The ability of one's magic is defined at birth but can be changed. One with low magic quality has to work much more to materialise it than one with a better quality, but in time and with much study, they could be comparable," he explained, giving the potion to Iris who took it reluctantly.
In the end she drank it. The potion seemed to flow in her blood and she felt it going through her whole body. She raised her head to look at Ray who was studying her.
