As Ethan grew older, his fascination with magic only intensified. He spent every spare moment reading books about magic, practicing basic spells and studying the different forms of magic that existed. His passion was fueled by the story of the fairy who had taught him the basics of magic in the forest.

One day, as Ethan sat with his parents, Elizabeth and John, at the dinner table, he finally mustered the courage to ask them what he had been dreaming of for years.

"Mom, Dad, I want to go to magic school," he said, looking at them with a determined expression.

His parents were taken aback by his request. They were simple folk and the idea of sending their son to a magic school was completely foreign to them. They had never heard of such a thing and were uncertain about the risks and costs involved.

Ethan could sense their hesitation, so he tried to persuade them. "Mom, Dad, I have a talent for magic. I know it sounds strange, but I can feel it within me. I want to develop my abilities and become a great mage like the ones I read about in books."

His parents looked at each other, unsure of what to do. Finally, after much discussion and consideration, they agreed to let Ethan attend magic school, under one condition: that he would keep himself safe and be careful with the magic he learned.

Ethan was overjoyed and thanked his parents for their support. He eagerly set out to prepare for his journey to magic school, eager to embark on the next chapter of his life and pursue his dream of becoming an archmage.
