It feels like fragile, slippery glass, and the pale light seems to shine more between their fingers.

"Good job you three," Lia tells them.

She steps around behind them so she can catch anyone if they fall down, "Okay, now let go." Once they've done so, she continues, "When you pull the magic away from the item it will release a lot of energy, which will melt the ring and cause a bright flash of light. So I want you to do this one at a time. Tepam, you first - catch hold of the magic again, and then give it a tug."

She feels vaguely bad over destroying a magic item, but she does that, gently pulling until it's tugged.

There is a bright flash of light, and then the information hits her, leaving her knowing exactly how to make another object like the ring. The glowing enchantment is a complex work of alteration magic, which requires that she manipulate magicka and the energy of a soulgem to tie something like the magelight spell to an object, along with the ability to turn it on and off with a word. 

She can also feel her magicka, now. A cool pool of energy which she can reach at any time, though what she can do with it, besides the only enchantment she knows, is not so clear.

Oooh. She is stares awed at nothing in particular. 

"Can invent new spells with this thing?" She points at her head.

"Eventually, yes. It will be easier if you know it better, first. We're going to start you on crafting enchantments once you've learned all of these three enchantments, and know them well enough to make apprentice-level rings. You'll be learning the spell Clairvoyance then, as well. That will teach you how to write what you make down so other people can understand it."

Tepam does not bounce because she is a stool, but she practically vibrates with excitement. "I want to learn everything!"

"Don't worry, we'll teach you all we know," Lia tells her, chuckling. 

"Okay, Alesin, you next, then Mika." 

It takes Lesi another few moments to grab hold of it again, but once she does she gives it a tug, producing another flash of light. Afterwards she stands there blinking at the air, and then down at the second lump of flash-melted silver wire on the table. She pokes her lump - it's cool - and picks it up, rolling it between her fingers. 

"My head feels very weird," she tells Tepam as her brother takes his turn.

"I know! It's magic and it's great!"

There's another flash of light. Mika shakes his head and blinks hard, and then nods in agreement. 

"It is! And it doesn't even hurt like last time."

"That's good," Lia tells him. "You're all doing very well." She catches sight of Alesin playing with the remains of her ring, "And you can all keep those lumps of silver if you want them," she adds. "Or we can send them out to be melted down for new rings."

"I want to do that and enchant it myself!"

"Sure, that sounds like a fun project," Lia agrees. "Let's just put them over here with a sticky note with your name on it, so we know which one is which." She herds them over to her desk so they can do just that.

"Alright, now we'll try actually enchanting."

Mika bounces over to the enchanter's table excitedly. 

Followed by Tepam, she wants to do more magic!

Lesi follows them with only slightly less obvious excitement. 

Lia brings a small basket of rings over - plain silver wire with pretty, semi-precious stones, purple and blue and gold and all colours of the rainbow - and tells them all to pick one. Then, she takes down four purplish-pink gems.

"These are soul gems," she explains, "They hold a lot of energy, which we can use to power enchantments. Disenchanting those rings should have shown you how to move that energy, but I want you to watch me make one first, so you can see it for real. Here, though," She hands each of them a soul gem. They feel smooth and hard, and the edges and points are rounded, so they aren't dangerous for the two-year-olds to hold.

Tepam picks silver with a green gemstone that does not quite, but is closer to her hair color. And watches Lia like her work is the only thing in the world.

Lesi picks one with a gold-streaked dark green stone. When she gets her soul gem she squints at it, then holds it up so she can see the light bounce off of it, covering a wall with a splash of watery pink light.

"Ooo," Mika does that too, for a moment, then puts the gem down so he can watch his mom enchant. 

(His ring is silver and blue - he was looking for a stone the exact same colour as the hair of anyone he knows, and eventually found one which he thinks matches the blue triplets' hair. He'll have to check in person, but he's got a pretty good eye for colour.)

Once they're all paying attention, Lia leans over the table and begins enchanting one of the two plain silver rings she'd pulled out of the basket. The magic of the table makes the stream of precisely controlled magicka from her hands, and the slightly differently coloured energy from the soul gem, visible to the three childrens' eyes. She uses her magicka to pull the energy into a pattern around the ring, and then locks it in place. The process should look familiar and simple, to Tepam and Mika especially - the end result is a glowing ring like the ones they had disenchanted. 

Once that's done, she enchants a cooling ring as well, as an example for Alesin, and then steps back from the table. 

"Alright, who wants to try first?" 

The twins glance at each other, then to Tepam, in perfect agreement, "Tepam wants to try first," Lesi says for both of them, stepping out of her way.

"Tepam does want to try first!" She agrees, she bounces once, while not on the stool. And then she mimics what Lia just did.

It feels both perfectly natural and very strange! Her attempt isn't as controlled as Lia's was, and the pattern is a fair bit looser, but the end result is a glowing ring just the same. 

Tepam hugs it and lets out a excited shriek.
