Chapter 5

Aesrii had thought often about life outside of staying home but found
herself quite anxious when finally experiencing it. She knew enough of
the guilds to dismiss the martial they often neglected what she knew
to be her greatest strength, the mind. She knew from her books that
she had the potential to be a mage, though she feared she would find
herself without the talent.

She first visited the necromancer and anti-paladin guild but found the
dark arts they practiced required a viciousness that she just couldn't
find within herself. She visited the conjurer guild next but did not
think their words on the need to convince demons and angels would come
as well from her tongue. She briefly visited the shapeshifter guild but
did not want to learn how to bite something repeatedly despite how
marvelous it sounded to fly high in the sky. She visited the transmuter
guild and found their magic quite remarkable, but their reliance on
striking with their staff was still just not to her liking.

She finally found a home in the invoker guild. They could weave all
sorts of elements to protect her and harm those that might wish her harm.
She found the spark of magic in channeling frost to her fingers quite
quickly. She was relieved knowing that she could study here. They found
her studious nature to be a requirement and were quick to point her to
other libraries she could pursue as well. Aesrii found the idea of an
Eternal Library wonderful and planned to go there to look at their unique
works. Perhaps she could even write her own work for others to read. The
thought intrigued her, though she knew that she would first have to find
a topic she had mastered and that seemed a daunting task.
