"You'd need to have a flame elemental mark instead of what you have on your wrist. Magically speaking, you won't be able to cultivate fire Qi before you reach the second step. That was when you need to find a second fate lock, but that's trouble for another time. You need to focus on what you can do now."
I grunted in frustration. "Okay, let's stop with bad news," I said, and unwrapped the clothes from my left wrist. I laid the spiral mark bare before her as she scrutinised, though she didn't let out any words about it like most times. "I have a few burning questions that I would need for you to answer if you can."
Saarya lifted an eyebrow. "I'll try, but don't hope to learn everything. There are many things you won't understand, many things I'm not supposed to tell you."
"How sure are you that this mark will give me magical power after I reach copper?" I asked, my voice came with unbridled hope.
