The only way Jubal could think to increase the power of an Aaka was to perform it on an instrument. He picked up his Tubal-flute, wondering how greatly the potential would be increased over performing the same Melody mentally. What scale should be used to measure it?

Roddy used lightning bolts as a scale. Jubal had his answer. The next question; could he cast two Aakas at once?

With a Da Capo, it should be possible, he reckoned, but such had never been done before. Best to try at the outset, he could think of no other way to measure the ultimate volume added in crescendo.

He mentally performed Ranking and then added the Da Capo. Any of Roddy’s compositions could be played on the instrument, but which one? The Melody for distinguishing a Nephilim from and an Anakim came to mind. Potential was harmless and seemed like the perfect choice.

Jubal brought the instrument to his mouth and began the Aaka. Four notes into the tune something seemed amiss, even though he was performing the piece correctly, so far. Ten notes along and the feeling grew so strong he ceased to play. “What is wrong?” he asked out loud.

On impulse, he began the notes for Producer, even though it made no sense. The brass instrument could be made into such a device, but it would be silly to alter it to focus only one Melody. “Well,” he figure, “if I do not lock an Aaka into the thing the process should do no harm to the instrument.”

He continued to play the notes, feeling the power stirring, and when the tune reached the point of summoning potential, he focused Ranking into the brass Tubal-flute. The instrument flared bright blue, almost blinding in its intensity. Footsteps pounded down the hall. Voices were shouting, the door slammed open, and half a score of people flooded into the study. Jubal brought the flute away from his mouth and removed the Da Capo from Ranking, ceasing all potential. “I played the tune louder than usual, but not enough to cause a commotion. What is the matter?”

Vashti, Pan, Natura, Ares, Cassi, Anak, and Orion, all stood in the forefront of the group and staring wide-eyed. “The strangest thing just happened, didn’t you feel it. It was like being in a pool and having a giant boulder tossed into the middle and shoving waves of water out in all directions, except these were invisible,” the archer responded.

“Yes, invisible waves that knocked us all off of our feet,” Ares added his testimony.

Vashti ran over to Jubal. “I thought we agreed you would not over tax yourself.”

Jubal laid the flute on the table, it was then he noticed three golden lightning bolts on the flute where his right palm had been in contact with the brass. “I did not personally use much potential, at least not for very long, it was the flute that provided the increase in energetic volume. I told all of you in class, well those who are Nephilim, that an Aaka performed on an instrument is more powerful than one performed mentally.
