Dialogue
(#0) The 9th Watcher: Welcome, mage. May your talent for magic only grow stronger. (→ #1)
(#1) Multiple-choice:
- 0: I’d like to talk. (→ #2)
- 1: I want to train with you. (→ #4)
(#2) The 9th Watcher: Never underestimate the humble Spark spell. It may seem small and weak, but when combined with other spells or components, it can produce powerful effects. (→ #3)
(#3) The 9th Watcher: If you wish to learn the most complex of spells, seek out Rune Magic in Berg. Only by properly combining them will you unlock their power. They are spells that require experimentation, but are flexible once you understand them. (→ end)
(#4) The 9th Watcher: Ah, yes. I can teach you the power of the Scorching Touch. Enemies touched by this hex will find themselves further vulnerable to the power of your flames. Pay me 50 silver and it’s yours. (→ #5)
(#5) Multiple-choice:
- 0: Deal, here’s your money. (→ #6)
- 1: No, thanks. (→ end)
(#6) The 9th Watcher: Excellent. It’s quite simple. Picture a roaring fire, and concentrate your mana into the palm of your hand until you feel like it’s stinging in pain. One strong strike will pass that on into your foe’s entire nervous system. See? Simple. (→ end)
(#7) The 9th Watcher: So, you have come. I sensed that someone who had the potential for magic was on their way (→ #8)
(#8) The 9th Watcher: If you wish to gain Magic, you must first give. You must sacrifice Health and Stamina to the Ley Line, and in return what you gave up will be given back to you as Mana. (→ #9)
(#9) The 9th Watcher: Be careful how much of your Health and Stamina you give up, because once you have traded it for Mana, you can never get it back. (→ #10)
(#10) The 9th Watcher: The first time you gain Mana, you will gain your first spell, the Spark. It may seem small and weak, but when combined with other spells or components, it can produce powerful effects. (→ end)
Acquiring Mana
(#0) The 9th Watcher: Now that mana flows through your veins, I can teach you a new spell to welcome you as a mage. (→ #1)
(#1) Multiple-choice:
- 0: Teach me how to cast a Fire Sigil. (→ end)
- 1: Teach me how to Reveal Souls. (→ end)
- 2: Not now. (→ end)
