"Larihei smiles today - Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya," exclaimed a Miravaris.

A mali'thill rejoiced: "Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya!" 

"Ito Haelun'or Iyath'ante," spoke a patriotic high elf.

Somewhere in an unknown realm at an indefinite distance from Haelun'or.

A Miravaris rejoiced at his relative's accomplishments, while an Elassidil reminisced over her old mentor and friend. 

Somewhere in the bustling kitchen of Haelun'or Tavern, a certain chef was overseeing the baking process.

Evidently, judging one of young Andwen's creations. @Amelica

Seated at a table within the homely confines of the tavern, the esteemed Chef Miravaris indulged in a leisurely read of the most recent publication while intermittently taking small sips of freshly brewed black coffee. A whole stack of newly printed papers rested neatly upon the table's surface, eagerly awaiting mali'thill-visitors. In the proximity of the chef's seat, atop the counter, several steaming cups of express coffee were freshly prepared, their rich aroma wafting seductively throughout the establishment. With each sip of the invigorating brew, the Chef savored its robust flavor and comforting warmth, relishing every moment of his respite from the hustle and bustle of the world beyond the tavern's walls.

"I Love the Silver City," exclaimed Chef Miravaris.

A certain elfess, normally known for her gentle and kind nature, suddenly received news of the details of Vallein's murder. While she was reading the missive, her expression shifted drastically from one of calm composure to one of hatred. Her long, pointed ears, which usually perked up with interest, now drooped down in sorrow and anger. "Impurity, theft, and murder of Larihei's flock are now too common among the traitors. But he supported them, tried to achieve peace, and so that's how they rewarded him..." She pondered over the missive for a while, unable to understand how one could be so monstrous. After making several notes, she enter the Silver Citadel, concluding "She is simply an ullral. That is beyond redemption."

Idendril Elassidil offered a nod of acknowledgment to the missive, a wave of nostalgia sweeping over her for a moment. "Llyria, Aldemar, Starland..." she muttered these words with a rather tired tone. "How many more obviously hateful projects have to pass before there is peace in Elvendom? It seems as if Valyris, like her predecessors, enjoys being associated with the forces of evil." A new day dawned, and a cool breeze rolled through Haelun'or, beckoning the mali'thill to devote themselves to the Cause. "Last Thought to Haelun'or - Ito Haelun'or Iyath'ante."

"Oh how the puny fall?" mused a certain pure high elf. "And it took them decades to see that, living in a nation founded by a bandit, a book thief, and an ata'fenn. I can only hope that they will realize that one can never be a 'thill without adhering to Larihei's teachings. Will probably take a few decades as well."

In her office, Idendril Elassidil sat filling out some paperwork when the news reached her: "Mar'ayla - peace in our time. Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya." With these words she resumed her work.

Somewhere in the kitchen of the Haelunorian tavern, the Chef Miravaris was preparing sweets and brewing tea for the returning Luthien.

A certain dwarf starts counting coins.

Somewhere from the depths of the Eternal Library, a devoted mali'thill utters the words of his predecessors, dedicating himself to their ancient cause. "Rise to the challenge, Children of Silver, rid the realm of the dark and evil. Only then may we find peaceful procurement of progress and health.  Maehr’sae hiylun’ehya!"

"Ay'Haelun'or, Ay'Barrowlands - death to the darkspawn," a certain Miravaris exclaimed.

Eivor Goldhand sat at his desk, his brow furrowed in concentration as he read over the missive announcing the trial of the Ireheart who had maimed his son. "For Justice." the dwarf nodded to himself with grim satisfaction as he folded the missive and set it aside.

What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Transfiguration

Describe this magic or a creature as a whole:

Transfiguration is a hard and intricate form of magic that involves manipulating mana to change the properties of nonliving objects. It is divided into sections such as Voidal Feeling, Transmutation, Enchanting, and Abjuration. Transfigurationist can alter objects to suit their needs, bind spells to items, and disrupt enemy spells, though it is primarily intended for practical purposes and has little combat utility.

Are there different sections or subsections of magic? Can those be elaborated upon?

The initial stage of a Transfigurationist's training is referred to as Voidal Feeling. This phase entails employing mana to gain knowledge about the attributes of inanimate objects. The mage streams their mana into the object to learn about it progressively. Subsequently, the mage can extract the mana from the object to further comprehend its qualities. The procedure is frequently likened to a dialogue between the mage and the object. Voidal Feeling is critical to the next phase, Transmutation since it equips the mage with a comprehension of the object's features.

Transmutation is the process of modifying the physical attributes of an object by utilizing its inherent mana. This can be accomplished by a mage who has gained a comprehensive understanding of the precise properties of the object through Voidal Feeling. The mage has the ability to modify various characteristics of the object, such as its location, temperature, form, color, and density. However, they must always adhere to the law of equivalent exchange (as in terms of altering object's shape, density), as well as other limitations/redlines. There are also Fusion and Fission. First being the process of merging two substances to generate an alloy or to join identical materials to construct a larger object, while, latter involves dividing a single object into smaller pieces, which is useful for splitting an ingot into two or separating mixtures of materials into their original components.

Enchanting is the process of incorporating magical attributes into an object, the object's enchantment is fueled by a mana storage established within it. To enchant an object, one must possess knowledge of the spell and use a sufficient (made of at least one quarter mage gold/arcanium) material. Enchantments are classified into three types: lesser enchantment, non-combative and improve the overall quality of roleplay, potent enchantment, that may be combative and can be performed with spells up to tier 3, while anything higher than tier 3 would require a grand enchantment, the most powerful type of enchantment and can be used to enchant spells of any tier.

Abjuration employs various techniques, including warding, to create a shield of mana that can either deflect or dismantle incoming spells upon contact. Wards are subjected to a durability system and can only intercept spells that the caster is familiar with; otherwise, the spells will simply pass through. Moreover, abjuration also involves a way of casting concentrated mana at mage's spell or objects enchanted with magic, causing it to disintegrate/break.

Can you give an example of a casting emote, of a spell of your choice?

[Lesser Enchantment]

Idendril closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the mana within her. She opened her eyes and gazed at the wand in her hand, studying it for a moment. With a graceful gesture, a soft yellow glow surrounded her as she focused her energy, and soon a mist began to form around her. As the mist began to swirl and dance, continued to channel her mana, and the yellow mist flowed into the wand, imbuing it with magical properties. 

The yellow mist grew brighter and brighter as it flowed into the wand, filling it with an aura of magical energy. As the process continued, the mist began to dissipate, and the wand glowed with a soft, warm light, indicating that the spell had been successfully cast. She had imbued it with the ability to serve as a regular source of light, should one use the word "ilum" to activate it.

Can you give an example of a teaching-emote (interacting with another) of a spell of your choice?

[Voidal Feeling]

Idendril picked up a small object and held it up for her student to see, she then placed it on the table in front of the student.  “Now, watch carefully, I'll pour my mana into this object and gradually learn more about its properties.” She focused her energy and poured her mana into the object, causing it to glow with a soft, yellow light. 

The student watched with fascination as the object grew brighter and the air around it shimmered with energy.

Soon, Idendril carefully streamed the mana out of the object, she concentrated, and the mana flowed back from the object, surrounding her, giving her a better understanding of the object's characteristics before dissipating in the air. “Voidal Feeling requires you to draw upon your mana and pour it into an object. As you focus your energy, you'll learn more about its characteristics. It's essential to be patient and understand the nature of the object.” She looked at her student, waiting for him to demonstrate his casting.

The student took the object and concentrated on pouring their mana into it, but initially had trouble focusing. Idendril encouraged the student to be patient and keep trying. 

After a few attempts, the student focused his energy, slowly flowing his mana into the object. Beads of sweat formed on his face as he concentrated, pouring more and more of his mana into the ball.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as the object began to glow with energy. After some time of flowing his mana into the object, the student was ready to stream the mana out of the object. He concentrated again, streaming his mana back out of the object and retrieving the information he needed.  “I can feel the object, it is a hollow ball of ferrum with a golden cylinder inside.” He opened his eyes and looked at the ball, a sense of satisfaction filling him combined with the fatigue.

"Well done! With dedication and practice, you'll master Voidal Feeling in no time."

Say your student powergames during or after teaching, how do you reprimand that?

I’ll first approach them OOCly, explaining what aspects of magic they have most probably understood wrong, providing examples of RP cases if necessary. Hopefully, that would help and they would stop powergaming. However, if that persists, with little chance for remedy, I’ll notify the Story Team.

VICTORY OF SILVER

20th of Snow’s Maiden, 117 SA

“Rejoice my children - for we look evermore to the future, vigorously defending our Silver Revolution! Our Blessed State forever intertwines itself in growth and construction for there is never an end to progress.” 

Former Sohaer Kolvar Uradir

It is with great pleasure that elOkarn’nor announces the cancellation of taxes in Haelun’or, effective immediately. It is a clear indication that our society has made significant progress, and it is a step towards the betterment of our Cihi’thilln. For years, we have worked tirelessly to build a society that provides a better standard of living for all our citizens. Significant progress has been made in the fields of education, healthcare, and technology, among others. As we move forward, the cancellation of taxes will provide a much-needed boost to our society. We recognize the burden that taxes can place on citizens, and we want to ensure that our citizens can thrive without any financial strain. With the cancellation of taxes, we hope to promote a more equitable society, where every citizen can benefit from the progress we have made.

However, we must emphasize that the cancellation of taxes does not mean that we can let our guard down. We must continue to work hard and contribute towards the betterment of our society. The progress we have made so far has been a result of the collective efforts of all our citizens, and we must continue to work together to build a better society. In this regard, we urge all citizens to contribute to the State’s charity. By donating to our charity programs, citizens can not only contribute to the well-being of their fellow citizens but also earn valuable social credit.

The social credit system is a recognition of citizens' contributions to society. By contributing to charity, citizens earn valuable social credit points that can be redeemed for a variety of benefits. The system implemented in times of the Sohaership of Kolvar Uradir shall be reintroduced.
