Pact with Zmazha
Drolzu and his mentor, Ghoraza, made their way toward the Raguk District, their pace deliberate as they neared their destination. As they arrived at the forge, they came to a steady halt, and Ghoraza began to speak.
An Animizt possesses /Fruum/. This am the representation ob how much Spiritual power lat can cast with, agh the cozt ob spells. Right now lat have a meagre amount . But such will grow az lat increase in strength.
As Ghoraza continued to explain the fundamentals of Animism to his student, a question suddenly arose in Drolzu's mind. Without hesitation, he turned to Ghoraza and asked.
Wub are we going to be doing? Huw will I zummyn mi zpirit?
Ghoraza would quickly answer the question that his student had just asked.
We ahm to activate the spell Commune to speak wid lat pacted Spirit. Lat am nub strong enough to cast such a spell on lat own, but lat have we.
A long pause followed his mentor's answer, and after a moment of reflection, he finally spoke again.
Lat already am capable of exerting lat Fruum- to wield the metal upon lat body, or for aesthetic manipulation of lat abilities.
Ghoraza extended one of his hands, and a brilliant flare of fire erupted from his fingertips. The instant Drolzu saw flames erupt from Ghoraza's fingertips, he would immediately yell.
Wub da zkah iz going on!
As Drolzu began to speak again, Ghoraza would quickly talk over him saying
Iz latz turn now
It took Drolzu several attempts to exert his elemental spirit to his hands, but after a few tries and with growing focus, he finally succeeded. After succeeding to cast his elemental spirit to his hands, he would quickly turn to Ghoraza before saying
Dyd mi do et?
Ghoraza's eyes lit up with excitement the moment he saw his student's hand gradually transforming into metal. In almost an instant he would say
Indeed. Lat am an Animist brudda!
His student quickly turned to him and asked,
Wub should we do now?
Ghoraza wasted no time in responding to his student's question.
We ahm to perform the spell Commune.
Ghoraza carefully etched the symbol of metal onto the ground before speaking to Drolzu.
Go get the zhomo, we need him to make an offering to your spirit.
The moment Drolzu heard this, he immediately rushed through the city, searching for the shaman. He finally found him in the tavern and urged him to follow him.
As soon as Drolzu came back with the shaman, Ghoraza would instantly tell him.
We need lat grizh to summon latz spirit
Drolzu would almost immediately pull out his pocket knife, making a small little incision onto his hand, letting the blood drip onto the symbol below.
As soon as he did this, the shaman would begin to speak
Griishûm aghburz lat, latob burz bruddah glob lat amg latûrz
After the shaman made his offering, he quickly departed. As he left, smoke began to swirl around the duo, lifting them off the ground along with everything else in the vicinity. In an instant, all the metal nearby gravitated toward a single point, twisting and contorting into the shape of a massive war hammer. As the smoke dissipated, Drolzu's spirit began to materialize from the thick haze, taking form before both of their eyes.
Thys iz lat zpirit Drolzu. Lat may begin speaking to it.
Before Drolzu could utter a word, his spirit spoke to him first.
You will need action, small shard. You have yet to bear the weight of my power, nor possess the soul to do so yet. How are ideas spread?
Drolzu paused, contemplating for a moment before responding to his spirit.
Ideas are spread through word of mouth, sculptures that have been made by people.
Drolzu's spirit continued to speak.
And through action, you may wield my strength to kill the evils of this world, to guide those who would fall to darkness. When you are stronger, you will be able to bring others to witness me like this, and usher them into the faith. To enhance my power you may make totems in this realm, create artifacts in my name, or reign its calamity when you seek to destroy your enemies.
