Lorogh recovered his senses when Victor showed obvious upset by the notion that he was somehow responsible for his student's crimes. "No of course, master! I'm sorry that was entirely inappropriate to suggest that you are somehow to blame for the actions of your initiate."
Lorogh bowed his head, clasping his furry hands together in a show of contrition. Thankfully Victor had grace enough to mmove the subject along to less contentious topics than the Nightmare King's killer, and his relationship to Victor.
They began talking about the tendency of famous people to have been initiated by Victor. His master was of course modest, and didn't take credit where it was due. Balthazar wwas already well known, and of course Alistair was a nobleman when initiated.
"I hope I prove worthy of your esteem, Master! Or that I continue to be, supposing I am." He smiled at Victor, all ideas that the mage master was anything other than an upstanding citizen of the world, and powerful mage.
"Hmmm" Lorogh thought to himself when Victor suggested a concrete-shooting cannon. "Perhaps that might work, but can pathway work through fluids? Or do you mean that the concrete ought to harden before firing? Either way might have merit, if the concrete can be weakened enough not to blow up the cannon with backfire!" The cadouri considered it further as they went along, experimenting and postulating theories on how to limit harm in a confined space.
Finally, Agilia having listened to the entire exchange, responded to Victor's query about what was expected of them. "We will test out your theories with the appropriately talented magi. We would ask that you stay here while we do this, so that we can ensure top magic minds and engineers alike are on hand to provide feedback to the process."
She smiled from Victor to Lorogh, "But no, we don't expect you to enchant things yourself. We have very talented ensorcellers who are well equipped to do just that.
But for now, please abide here, and we will see that your talents are harnessed to the maximum.
Lorogh looked from Agilia to Victor, and clapped Victor on the side of his arm, being too short to clasp his shoulder. "I believe we've made good progress for the project here today. Let's stay and see what we can learn from them." That said, they spent the rest of the day just basking in the collective minds of so many talented mages, and paying witness to their talent.
YAY! All work and no play makes an otter a Transmutation legend :-p
Hehe. Teaching someone something of great power comes with some level of responsibility... Even if that responsibility is to be frowned at for the rest of their life as a result of their students choices.
