Feeling somewhat refreshed after the meal, James and his three wives took their usual positions on the mossy earth behind the temple. Once everyone was settled in a circle, the einherjar laid out the evenings plans. “Nyakuro, since you are still low on Qi, I think you should only cultivate for a single hour. Use Acrasia as your source, and then spend the remainder of the time practicing your katas. Acrasia, after Nyakuro has cultivated your Qi, you can spend the rest of the evening training with Effie. By the way, did she mention what she wanted in return for her help?”

Acrasia nodded quickly. “She said one drachma a day would be okay. I think she’s really curious about your ability to teach spells to other people, but won’t come right out and ask about it.”

“That’s fine. I think that’s a fair price, given how useful it will be. You can take her pay from my Inventory each day.” James stated, hoping that she would be a fast learner. Leannán Sídhe are said to be the muses which inspired great artists throughout history, so perhaps she’ll have a natural talent for music?

“Thanks, Master! I already know a little, but Effie is teaching me a lot. I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it in no time.” Acrasia said with a cheerful smile.

“That’s great, my pet. I have total faith in you.” James told her, by way of encouragement.

“Dost thou plan for thyself and I to continue our cultivation as normal then, Master?” Hrein asked.

“Yeah. We’ll all train for three hours before calling it a night. I don’t want to be totally tapped out of Qi tomorrow, just in case something comes up.” the einherjar confirmed.

With the plan set, the four members of the Fir household went about their training for the evening. By the end of it, Nyakuro had cultivated another 120 Spirit, giving her a total of 180 to spend. James and Hrein had each gathered 360 Spirit during their three hours of meditation, leaving Hrein with 420 to use, and James with 450.

The einherjar immediately spent 300 Spirit to increase the range of his Rebirth spell from 10 feet to 10 yards. This left him with precisely 150 Spirit to use, which happened to be the exact amount needed for his plans. “Hrein, my love. I’m going to grant you a spell now, okay?” James warned her. It wasn’t that he expected the valkyrie to refuse the spell or anything. He simply wanted her to be prepared for the mild headache she was about to experience. Now that I think about it, learning spells like this didn’t used to cause headaches at all, did it? the ex-soldier pondered for a moment. I wonder if it has something to do with the amount of magical knowledge we are accruing, in addition to the method? Hopefully it won’t get worse. Shaking his head to clear his mind of distractions, James focussed on the upgraded Rebirth spell, and copied it to Hrein’s spell list.
