-AbramI still didn't get any response from my parents about what happened yesterday, somehow all my energy drained out of nowhere and I fell asleep yesterday with no idea what I had really done.But what did keep me very cheerful was the feathery clouds that surrounded me and being able to observe the mana was satisfying.Now that I could see it it was much simpler to understand, pure mana simply floated through the environment while elemental mana was found in areas where the element was abundant.But that did not mean that even if there was no source of fire, there was no fire elemental mana in the environment, as I watched the roof waiting for the sunrise I saw how among the particles of wind I could also see particles of water, fire, and earth. It was however logical why they were there, the water particles represented the humidity and the cold, the fire particles represented the heat and the earth particles represented the dust carried by the wind.I also realized a fact in th
'What is this' I thought as I saw the scene in front of my eyes.It was strange, not only because of the scene but because of the feelings I had inside me that made me conflicted to go and help my son.The mana itself was in a two-sided war, one part of the mana seemed to emit a feeling of hatred which was trying to attack my son and another part of the mana had a loving and protective feeling which was protecting my son.Besides the mana, internally in my being, there was a feeling of hatred, similar to an instinct; it was not a normal hatred, it was a hatred even worse than the one I could direct to my enemies.That feeling makes me frown, because when I saw my son's face that feeling disappeared to a great extent, but it did not disappear in its entirety.That made me conclude that I did not feel hatred towards my son but something deeper not toward the person in front of my eyes.The blood pact awakened a primitive feeling that I had no idea what it was due to, it was uncomfortabl
Slowly all the mana around us began to circulate, concentrating on feeding the layer of feathers on my back.Without prior knowledge, I tried to feed the feathers on my back.It didn't work the first time, or maybe it wasn't enough mana yet to make a visible change.Even if I doubted my actions, I wasn't sure if my actions were the right ones, in my father's words.'How does it feel to use mana in your body? The first time I felt it was like entering a liquid similar to tree sap, viscous and with a sticky feeling.'No, these words did not help me at all, but they are the only source that can help me understand what I am doing.Unlike being a part of my body it was like feeding mana to a weapon, that's something I've never asked; so my knowledge is nil in that aspect.I regret only studying about beasts and the forest ecosystem, I regret it a lot, even if I couldn't study mana and magic it was useless for me to study it at the time since I was unable to use that knowledge, which seems
The first thing is to feel the mana, then its elements; a simple process described in words, but totally difficult at the time of performing it. My whole body is covered in sweat, after Elis and I made a connection, the weight I felt in my body was relieved but a great pain came with that relief. This made my mind unable to fully concentrate on the ritual, still, I didn't stop. I had to do it today if or if, I have dates to meet and time is very short for me right now. I just have to feel it, the connection that all beings have with the mana. Nothing... Nothing... And nothing. I could feel the connection I have with Elis but I could not feel the connection with the mana that my core should have, no, my core should not have it after all I am human, unlike the crows that all have an affinity with the mana and together that affinity also has an incredible affinity with the wind element and a slight connection with the root of the wind element, plant. I don't want to give up, I'm
Besides being a source of light, a soft breeze entered through that hole, which gave me a slight shiver, because of the cold wind that was blowing.On one of the sides, there was a small puddle of water, besides that, it was constantly growing but at a totally slow pace, above the puddle of water there was a small hole that could not be seen at night, I could only notice it since a small point of light could be seen; from that hole, water drops were constantly falling.But these drops of water when they hit the small puddle of water did not make a single sound, it was totally mute; as if there was really no water in this place.Still, I approached and not only did I feel the icy water but Elis also got some drops on his head and beak."Crow!" shouted Elis. "I don't understand you, Elis."Elis hopped off my shoulder and flew into the center of the light hitting the center of the room with her beak."I understand, I just want to see where I am...this place is so weird" Elis shook her
Crow! Crow!The cawing and flapping of a crow began to be heard.I looked again and in the window, a crow a little taller than normal crows and with worn feathers, which made it look quite old."Crow!" Said the crow sticking out his chest a bit."Greetings Great Ancestor," said my parents along with Grandfather the moment they saw the crow."Greetings," I said hastily so as not to disrespect the new presence that decided to enter the room.The Great ancestor nodded, with a graceful swish of his beak."Crow" squawked the Great ancestor."Understood, we will go at once," said my grandfather to the Great ancestor.Being the Great ancestor means that among the crows in our family, he is the most respected and the oldest; you could say that among all the ancestors in our family, he is the most relevant. "Answering quickly, no, I am not an ancestor I am just spending my retirement with the ancestors, I am not allowed to leave our family residence and see the rest of the ancestor tree."My
"You finally arrived, Abram," said my grandfather in a calm and relaxed way, the atmosphere seemed to change immediately, the imposing and fearful old man's presence changed completely, now it seemed that he was waiting for me and seeing me was like fulfilling a longing in his heart.My mother put a hand on my shoulder and I looked at her again she smiled at me, her smile almost told me that I had nothing to worry about.I felt nervous all the same, although I felt less and less nervous as the thing I was most worried about didn't happen."Father, we have come for the mana core ritual, besides the preparations we had talked about last time I came," my father said without any emotion, I don't know if I was surprised but my father is sometimes very cold and serious."Don't you say hello to your old man?" said my grandfather tired of my father's attitude."Hi dad..." said my father irritated.I'm not sure about my father's relationship with my grandfather, but it seems like it's not very
-Abram "Is this really the only option!" I shouted to my father and mother who were flying quietly as I climbed the tree. "You are going to make a warrior, this is one of the things you will have to do" said my father as he watched me climb the tree. "You can't always depend on your parents," My mother said as she laughed lightly. "This is simply impossible..." I whispered. I have no mana, I have no real support to be able to hold myself up and avoid a fall. If I could strengthen my body with mana to climb or use wind magic to try to fly like my parents, this would be another story. It was not less than 6 hours ago that we left our home. My parents held me to get down from the tree and even part of the way was flying along with them, but about 1 hour ago they decided not to help me anymore. So I walked several couples of kilometers where I also had to climb and traverse between the huge tree roots, these roots were no small thing it could take 30 minutes to climb up and down o
