Lesi and Mika both jump and then start giggling. 

Permalink

"You did it!!"

Permalink

"I did it!"

Permalink

"You did! Let's give it a try! Just put it on and say the trigger word, 'aglimmer'."

Permalink

Tepam puts it on and then punches the air as she says. "Aglimmer!"

Permalink

And the ring is all a glimmer! The light is greenish, like the jewel on the ring she picked.

Permalink

Excited bouncing! 

Permalink

Tepam hugs it again. "Best day ever!"

Permalink

Mika wants to go next! He steps up to the table and goes through the same process, coming away from it with a glowy ring (which he turns on immediately) and an equally glowy grin. 

Permalink

Lesi goes last. It takes her a bit longer than either of them, and she almost gets frustrated, but manages to make the cooling ring after about half again as much time as the other two. 

"That was hard," she tells her mother, "I knew how much I needed but I kept taking more?" 

Permalink

"Hmm, we'll work on it," she tells Alesin. She turns to look at all three, "Good job, all of you!" She tells them. "I think that will be all for today, but tomorrow we'll get started on practicing. It's going to be pretty much the same thing over and over again," she warns them, "But you need to do it to get good enough at enchanting to craft your own."

Permalink

Tepam is okay with this, she wants to show her magic ring to EVERYONE. She runs out of the run to do that. Then back at the room to ask if that's okay and if it's the same time tomorrow.

Permalink

Yes and yes, same time and place, and she's allowed to show anyone in the inner village (where this facility is, and she, her half-siblings, the blue triplets, and Mika and Alesin live, along with a few other families and individuals who are all in the know) but she needs to turn it off before going out the gates to the rest of the village. The security will remind her if she forgets.

Permalink

"I can do that!" And now she is running again.

Permalink

So is Mika! 

"Where are we going?" He asks Tepam as he follows her down the hall.

Permalink

Lesi follows a bit more slowly, turning her ring on and off as she leaves. She doesn't really feel the need to show off. She's busy marveling at the magic she made all by herself.

Permalink

"To find people to show our things!"

Permalink

"Oh!" Hmmm... "Do you know where the blue triplets could be? I wanna see if I got the colour right," he waves his blue-glowing ring in explanation. 

Permalink

"Ooh, I know where Seni is." Tepam calls in the elevator. "I think he will be at the library. I think."

Permalink

"Ohh, probably," he agrees. He gets into the elevator with Tepam and Lesi when it gets there and presses the button for the right floor. 

On the floor with the library there are more people wandering around, who will ooh and aah at Tepam and the twins' rings of glowyness and coolness. Then, there is a library! There's a bunch of people inside, most of whom they know, but Mika looks around for Seni first.

Permalink

Seni is in that reading nook over there, doing pronunciation exercises. There is a tutor nearby, but she is assisting some Yellows.

Permalink

That's a bit too far, Tepam will just approach the nearest person and... she is spots a purple watching her and approaches. "Hi! I did a magical thing!"

Permalink

Mika bounces over to him and quietly starts peering between the ring and his hair. It's a pretty close match! Maybe just a hair off? That might just be the light, though. He shifts over to look from a different angle.

Permalink

The purple's eyes widen when Tepam moves over to join her, and then further when she speaks.

"...Hi," she whispers (they're in a library, you've got to whisper in libraries). "It's pretty? How'd you do it?"

Permalink

"It's magic!" Another students shushes them. "Aunt Lia taught us just now, you look at an enchanted ring at an enchanted table and then you destroy the ring and then the instructions get into your brain and you know how to do them and you can then do them." She is whispering, but that's sure a lot of words. She catches her breath.
