"Well, that gem is in a sense, a mana stabilizer. It stops a person's inner mana from acting on it's own, assimilates any 'invading' mana, and limits how much mana a person can use at one time. I had it forged specifically for me after having accidently created a forest when I meant to create 5 trees." ^-^;
Restless Lucidity wrote:"Yes. Other selves." She gives him a smile. "They are beings with the same origins as I, but they all deviate at key points. Essentially, they're all different people with similar characteristics, physical and mental. Though... some are much more alike than others."
She gives a light giggle. "But, an epiphany? Do tell~"
Ryan5011 wrote:"Well, at least I know I can get training somewhere." Arkayah replied as she began spinning randomly. "I didn't really need all that magic inside of me anyways, I only used a tiny bit of it, and that was for creating and repairing everyday stuff.
Restless Lucidity wrote:"Ah, don't we all know that feeling... getting so caught up in our routines and clinging to what we've always done that we forget to experiment once in a while. Not to mention never questioning the consequences of what we do." She gives a small smile. "But as painful as it can be to admit to yourself that you got trapped that way, the rush you get when you finally realize that is fairly incredible, especially if you have that epiphany in an experience likes yours." She balances her cheek on her hand and lets her eyes lock with Yama's.
"Similarly, there was a time when I was very juvenile. Immature, self deprecating, short-tempered..." She makes a rolling motion with her hand. "I could go on and on. My point, though, is that, when I was immature and self deprecating, I had an experience that changed me, too. It wasn't as sudden as yours, but rather a series of similar enlightening experiences that took place when I was with a certain group of friends. The unique thing about my experience is that it wasn't an experience at all, but knowledge that was imparted from people that I came to love and trust more and more with each passing day..." Her eyes begin to wander and glimmer. There's a certain distance to them when she turns to face you again.
"Ah, but I'm just getting wistful now..." She shuts her eyes and raises her head, putting her hands in a fold. "... but that's a large part of the reason I'm on the quest that I am. A quest to again find the souls of my friends and be with them again."
She gives a light chuckle. "Forgive me if I rambled some, but I thought it would only be fair to share some about me since you've be so generous with yourself."

"Thank you for your kindness. I'm sure that your words with resurface one day and come to help me when I need it." She lets her smile and her gaze hold. "... and indeed, I am one of the luckiest beings ever to have existed. Even luckier because I am still making friends every day."
It's clear in an instant with her gaze and expression that she is referring to Yama himself.
