Buddy: "Whoa! No way!"
Buddy: "Just to be fair... It is a simple graphical replacement for a medikit."

"!!! ..!! !"
"Hrhh... Wait just... a... moment... ...No way! Ahahaha! We finally made it!"
"!! !!"
"Exactly and indeed! Welcome to the Silver Coast! I would love to make a use of this... but... mmh. Let's not provoke good fortune the Nature has given us so far."
"?? !!? ..?"
"I know... I will try to find a good spot if nothing else. ...As you can see, the waters rage here quite often. It did not use to be like this, but nowadays people pick the Platinum Coast instead."
"...!..."
"Right... Those that have it all cleared up in their heads. Ahaha! ...There was a time when the waters were calmer, but there might as well be a Leviathan lurking around. Something is magically disturbed alongside most of the coast, and the waters are often dangerous even without any monsters."
"!!!...? ?? !!! ?...!"
"Me!? Exaggerating!? At least I do not pretend I have it ALL figured out! ...Okay, maybe I am a little! In that case: Something less than a Leviathan. Such as Voloks or groups of Tenpetos! ...Better stay away from the water if we can help it. Haaa..."
"!!!. ... .."
"Do not worry about it!"
"??.?? ?"
"Oh please, you are like a child! Still long ways to go! Unfortunately, this is the way to Seggesmund... aaaaallll the way in THAT direction. More or less. Hopefully more than less! Hehehe! Heee..."
"?? !!! ? ! ??... ??"
"Fine?"
"!!!! !?? !??!?"
"Heh. ...Mhm... The ruins are a problem too, but they mostly dot the other bank. You can see the remains of our glorious magical past sticking out somewhere over there. If monsters of weird kinds are not enough, then Demons are. For one reason or another, they have a fixation to such places."
"!!.. !? ..? !!"
"I had more than enough of swamps... I agree."
"!!! ...!? !??. ?..?? !!.... ..?"
"Well, it is a testament to something. Something I am too simple to start talking about. The First Heretic destroyed so much. By now... It is what it is."
"!!.. ??..!"

"!!.. ??..!"
"You raise a good point, buddy! A very Shaman approach to things... ahahaha! Yes, we tend to live in the present, and all that you can see out there on the horizon no longer affects anything. Simply a piece of history. Centuries after us, somebody standing elsewhere will think the same about us: It is what is. It will not be relevant by much."
".... ... ? ..!!"
"Me standing here right now is not any more important than whoever was standing here back then just because it is me. Our time is not any more important just because we live in it."
"!!! ..?? ..!!"
"I would say so! I need to give their Holy Excellency guy due credit! ...But seriously. I do not even keep track of what dimwit is there now! They all get assassinated, disappear or die so often... Haaa... Commandants and Grand Inquisitors are easier if you are up to it! Heh!"
"?? !!..!!"
"Oh, hardly that! We had our chapters as well. The first Shamans changed their ways from Mystics of the time, once they realized it was a little TOO much rituals wise."
"..??...!!?? ?"
"Ah, you scold me wisely this time! Yes, we need to keep moving! Enough of this! Any... suggestions, Mister Know-It-All Magic Butterfly?"
"!! ..!! !.!"
"Understood! Sounds like a solid plan. Unless one impales me, or kicks me in the head, if we do find one, riding a Unicorn at least for a chunk of the coast is a brilliant idea! A local Glade it is! Try to detect one, fluttery folks! Light away!"

"OBJECTION!! You may call this harmless Mysticism until the ink crawls off the parchment, but that does not make the blood any less real!"
"Inquisitor, lower the parchment. You are holding it directly in front of the defense."
"I am ensuring they appreciate the evidence!"
"They can appreciate it from your podium."
"Very well. This parchment bears a five-point seal drawn in dried blood, surrounded by binding circles and a Lifeforce channel."
"The defense maintains that it is merely an obsolete restorative diagram."
"Obsolete? Certainly. Restorative? Only if one considers stealing vitality from another person a form of healing!"
"That conclusion has not yet been established."
"Then let's establish it so thoroughly that even a blind Mystic could trace the lines!"
"Inquisitor."
"My apologies. A self-proclaimed Magic sighted Mystic."
"Inquisitor! Hrrh..."
"Yes. Apologies."
"Proceed without insulting any further theoretical practitioners."
"The central pentagram is not the spell itself. It is the anchor. The outer seal identifies the recipient, while these inward-facing marks direct energy toward the center."
"And why could that energy not have been ambient?"
"Because ambient energy does not clot!"
"Clarify."
"The residue embedded in the parchment contains blood, marrow essence, and fragmented Lifeforce. Nature does not leave those ingredients lying around in convenient ritual proportions!"
"The defense argues that animal blood may have been used as a traditional catalyst."
"Then the defense has accidentally confessed that this was not harmless Mysticism!"
"That is not what was said."
"It is what was implied! Furthermore, the blood is human."
"Do you possess confirmation?"
"I POSSESS the alchemical report from a licensed Cleric: Score nine per drop of Yvior Root; the resonance comparison, and, OBVIOUSLY, a nose!"
"Inquisitor, your... nose... is not admissible evidence, nor is this institution a kindergarten."

"Inquisitor, your... nose... is not admissible evidence, nor is this institution a kindergarten."
"Then strike my nose from the record and retain the two certified examinations!"
"So ordered. Speaking of strikes, you are running out."
"Mrrh-mm, the blood matches the victim. More importantly, the victim’s magical exhaustion does not. A conventional spell transforms Astral Energy. Shamanism borrows through communion with Nature. This ritual bypassed both and pulled directly from the victim’s living essence."
"Could an inexperienced Mystic have done so accidentally?"
"OF COURSE N- ...No! That is precisely why these seals fell out of favor. Modern disciplines achieved the same results without carving shortcuts through another person’s soul!"
"Your wording is inflammatory."
"The act was inflammatory! The victim’s fever reached forty-one degrees!"
"The court is aware. Of my blood pressure as well."
"Gh... ...This was not some grandmother’s charm for keeping rain from the laundry. The circles were deliberately reversed, the protective breaks were sealed, and the recipient’s mark was written over the donor’s blood."
"You claim deliberate alteration of the diagram?"
"I CLAIM deliberate WEAPONIZATION! Someone took an antiquated healing rite, stripped away every safeguard, and converted it into a siphon!"
"The defense maintains that the caster merely followed an old manuscript."
"Then the manuscript must have leapt from the shelf, sharpened the ritual knife, and corrected the pentagram by itself!"
"Inquisitor, refrain from assigning physical agency to books, or perhaps you would prefer to be assigned to cases involving Ghosts."
"With ALL DUE respect, Region Inquisitor, MY explanation would still be more credible."
"Inquisitor."
"My apologies."
"Haaa... Continue."
"So ordered. Speaking of strikes, you are running out."

"Inquisitor."
"My apologies."
"Haaa... Continue."
"The caster knew enough to preserve the recipient, conceal the donor’s mark beneath the central seal, and stop the transfer before death. That is not ignorance. That is control."
"So your position is that Mysticism itself is not on trial."
"Correct. Outdated practice is not Heresy. Foolishness is not Heresy. Drawing little circles around candles and claiming the Moon approves is not Heresy."
"Do not encourage anyone."
"But blood-binding, forbidden seals, and the draining of Lifeforce are not quaint traditions!"
"Your conclusion?"
"The accused did not merely practice Mysticism. They used its MOST DANGEROUS form to steal life from one person and bestow it upon another."
"And the pentagram?"
"Not decoration. Not superstition."
"...Then what is it?"
"The signature of deliberate Heresy."
"Reasoning accepted."
"Obvi- Certainly, Region Inquisitor."
"Hrh... And put the parchment down."
"...Yes, Region Inquisitor."
