The following day, after staying at Yumiko Port, we took the group of students to the outskirts of the city, where the carriages that would take us to the capital were waiting for us.
The ride was supposed to be one full day, so we would have to stay one night on the road. However, we were told that the trail from the port to the capital was not only safe but it had a nice view.
During that time, I showed the students a method of training magic that they could do while traveling so that they wouldn't spend too long without practicing.
All they had to do was cast a small orb of magic from whichever element they had the most affinity to and keep it from dissipating.
This meant that they had to keep providing a steady amount of MP to the orb to keep it alive, but not enough for it to damage anything.
