ITP: Let's learn a barrier spell.

[drknss_bnd_lght]

Characters: [AU] Ventus and Eraqus
Setting: Room 2-20 then to the meadow.
Format: Action
Summary: Venau is finally learning a barrier spell.
Warnings: None. Will update if any come up.

Eraqus... I have a request. [It had taken him who knew how long to get up the nerve to even really say that. A big part of him was rebelling at this idea - telling him that it was a dumb idea, that he should just go to Xehanort, but another part of him knew that it was the best way to learn and he was, admittedly, more familiar with Eraqus's teaching style. And if it came down to it, Eraqus was slightly better than Aqua in Ventus's mind. And even then that was negligible, given that Ventus ignored his last roommate most days.

But after the tower-drama of the last while.. There really was no escaping the fact that he needed a barrier spell, or some way of better protecting himself. He doubted he'd use it much, but having it would be a good idea.]

Watch as I bullshit all the teaching methods ever from here on

[light_of_mastery]

Yes, it certainly is. We'll have more than enough space to start.

[His apprentices has mostly taught themselves certain spells over the years but they hadn't suffered the way this Ventus had. Eraqus would have to think up a completely different strategy this time.]

Tell me, how do you cast other spells? What do you use inside yourself to fuel them? What do you visualize or think about?

<3 It's ok!

[drknss_bnd_lght]

Well, I focus on the magic then cast,I guess. I use my desire to survive and I ....think of doing as much damage as I can at the time. [Ventus shrugged a little. He'd never really thought about the Whys and Hows, only that it worked.]

[light_of_mastery]

Good. Very good. The barrier spell will be slightly different. Instead of causing damage, you must think of how much damage you can resist or block.

The strength of a barrier depends on how much focus you put into it, how much you make it resist an attack or spell.
