Outside now the young man Richard moved one hand towards the well focusing his mind. A light blue aura began to surround his hand with nothing happening for a moment till slowly water began to rise from the well into the air carrying the same blue aura. Unlike more advanced students that could summon forth water with their energy, a dangerous move no one was allowed to learn unless they were old enough, mature enough, and shown the ability to be able to handle the strain with also the use of restraint, he like most others were able to manipulate water already in the area such as dewdrops, falling rain, lakes, wells, and more as long as the water was already there they could manipulate it.579Please respect copyright.PENANAaeyY6Y1QdY

It was similar to bending but it was the magic brought by their aura and focus channeling the magic provided around them which allowed them to do these things. Some could draw it out of the ground itself if they were advanced enough. As the water rose into the air and floated away from the well like a thick wobbly bubble ready to pop it took all his focus to keep his aura intact to contain the water trapped within.579Please respect copyright.PENANA0qG3pce3RI

Slowly turning his body as the water got closer, watching it float around his form and over to the group of lilies, tulips, and other mix of multicolored flowers. He paused watching and ensured he had a firm hold before slowly parting his lips to whisper “slowly…slowly…just a gentle shower…” under his breath watching as very carefully he focused to have holes open on the bottom of his aura around the water, hearing the rainfall sound gently against the greenery and colorful petals.579Please respect copyright.PENANAjelIyeCs57

A smile crept across the young man’s face seeing this working but was careful not to let his confidence flow too far to break his focus. When the plants had enough he turned at his waist directing the aura cloud of water over to another section of flowers to give them water under the shade of a tree with trumpet shaped flowers dangling down as if they were dead but he knew this was untrue of their life. In the moonlight they rose and basked in its pale light glory.579Please respect copyright.PENANAk7fM4fbgz8

Floating the water over another patch of flowers would end the flow of water, all having drained from the blue aura. With the water drained Richard allowed the blue aura to fade with a sigh released once he was done. “That we better than expected. Good job Richard seems you aren’t a lost cause.” He commented to himself raising a hand and patting himself on the back pleased by his deed in keeping such control.579Please respect copyright.PENANAuLiKLvjBvj

Looking over to see the Water Mage walking with slow steps and a troubled expression on his face brought a worried curiosity to stir inside Richards’s stomach taking his motion over closer. “Sensei is all alright? What troubles you?”579Please respect copyright.PENANAXKunn82otn

The questioning voice brought the Mage back from his thoughts and drew his eyes and attention to the young man and he exhaled shaking his head a bit. “A structure has shown up in the forest and we are not sure who created it. We are in search of its creator so I am pondering over who could had made what it is and to figure out what it does if it is helpful or hurtful. Also here, a gift from your sister.”579Please respect copyright.PENANA1P1iB0qPJ3

With those words the Mage handed the package to Richard with a soft nod. “Take a break from practice and enjoy your sisters baking while it’s warm. I need to speak with the Earth Mage.”579Please respect copyright.PENANA244dlzhhVR

“I heard he was returning to the master library so he should be there if not in the classroom.”579Please respect copyright.PENANAahS6Ru2DP0

“Thank you. Now go back inside and take a break. I feel you have been practicing hard after I dismissed all for break.” Richard gave a nod to the Mage’s words before heading off to return inside as was the Water Mage but went through another door directly into the master library after a flick of his wrist with a blue aura. Stepping inside and listening to the door close he approached a man in his mid-forties reading over a book by one of the one-way windows.
