*chirp!*
Jade looked at me with teary eyes, looking as if I had betrayed its fragile little heart.
"I'm sorry, but you know I can't take you yet, right?" I caressed its pretty head, but it only got the little bird chirping harder.
I had asked Natha again, about taking Jade over. It was impossible before since I would have gone for days, but what if it was just a few hours?
"You can't," the Lord decreed. "It's not a matter of lacking elemental mana, but that we're going through a portal."
Natha explained then, that since the portal was inherently a bunch of complicated spells meshed into one, it would affect negatively on Jade's little body. Before the little bird entered the juvenile state, its inside was still in the state of an unstabilized clump of mana. Taking Jade through a clump of interweaving spells would result in both systems getting overdrive.
