voice; un: nancy; open to moon & stars
-- Hello? Hi. My name is Nancy Wheeler, and I have a couple of things I'd like to ask, if anyone has the time.
[ unfortunately, no matter how much research nancy's done on everything she possibly could, the idea of recording a voice message for an entire network of people to listen to is still a little overwhelming for her. she knows it's a useful tool, but she's from 1985, so. y'know. it's a lot. still! she has a few questions, and she's not going to let something like feeling intimidated by new, magical technology stop her.
and yes, she knows there are horrifying monsters running around at night, which is normally a fight she'd be running head first into, but she doesn't have her gun. guns just- aren't a thing here, as far as she's learned. maybe she should ask..? no. let's not go there, if she doesn't have to. ]
Has anyone had the opportunity to register and attend classes at the University of Terebellum? I've only recently arrived here, but I figure the best way I can help or contribute to everything that's happening in this world is to learn magic, so. I'd like to do that. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how to go about registering for classes.
-- Or if there's anyone that would be willing to teach me on their own. I know it's a lot to ask, but I'm a quick learn, and I used to tutor my classmates back at school - [ wow, okay, cutting off that thought. how embarrassing. ] -- I just think it would be beneficial to form some sort of study group, for anyone that wants to learn magic, but doesn't have access to the University here just yet. I would be more than willing to set something up, but I just need someone to teach me the basics, first.
Any information on how I can go about learning magic, from the very start, would be appreciated - even moreso if anyone has the time to teach me, too. Although if there's something I could be doing to help that might be more effective than learning magic, I'm certainly open to that, too.
[ someone teach her how to fight with a sword, please. ]
Thank you.

What sort of protection spells are they, if you don't mind me asking? I'm sure there are different types of spells for protecting different things, no?
no subject
the question that follows, however, trips him up a little bit. ❱
Um, well. ❰ he doesn't really have the option of waffling about this answer or he loses basically all of his credibility, though, so here goes nothing: ❱ So I know a couple of them. One can kind of just keep things away - back home, it worked on angry spirits and also the beasts and trolls, which. I guess you've never heard about those, it's kind of complicated but they're basically animals and people that are dead but also kind of aren't. Anyway, it kept them away from the tank - that's where we were sleeping at the time, in a tank - and then I put it on a tent and it worked there, too.
❰ ...oh god, shut up reynir. he realizes how much he just talked, pulls in a bracing breath, then tries to do a little better with the next part. ❱ The other one seems more like a trap. When something touches it, it sets them on fire. I only tested it on the spirits and the beasts and trolls, but I think it should work on other stuff too?
no subject
But, um. Yeah. Yes. Fire traps definitely sound useful. [ she's not about to beat around the bush about it. they used fireworks in the fight against the mindflayer, okay, she's not about to turn down a burst-into-flames spell ] As long as there are safeguards, anyway.
