Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Night(whichever one it is in your part of the world),
Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
"Abduco!" the boy called, imitating what the man three feet away from him had done; nothing happened. The dark figure laughed humorlessly.
"Of course not." The figure chuckled. "You've truly has never done this before. You don't just automatically get your powers!" The boy, who had dark brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a grim expression playing upon his face, sighed.
"What do I do to get them? Do I have to get a wand?" Aaron picked up a stick off of the forest grounds, and waved it around, looking much like a person that had earned the title 'lunatic.'
OKay...well this is a slightly confusing start here. With the descriptions being tossed around at the moment, I genuinely cannot tell if this is a situation where we as the readers have to be worried for this boy or if this boy is simply at some sort of training session for these magic powers that got mentioned here. This is being quite ambiguous at the moment.
The dark figure laughed merrily; an echoing, distant, throaty laugh. The man's dark figure, a cloak covering his head and body, stood in the shadows, flashes of lights dancing around him. "You believe your human tricks will actually work?"
"Earn isn't a word I'm familiar with." Aaron snorted. "Anyways, do you know who I am?"
"Do you know who I am? You never will, unless you learn the key to summoning your powers!" The hooded man once again laughed, and the ground shook; Aaron grabbed onto a near-by tree to make sure he didn't fall.
Now this is slowly turning into a bit of a dangerous dance of power there...you can definitely sense a light touch of animosity between these two characters here and they seem to be lowkey trash talking each other somewhat as they prepare for something that looks like its going to turn into a fight. At any rate, this has so far been a very intriguing scene here.
"Well, how do I do it, then? Become a wizard, I mean?" Aaron said.
"Your childish games wont work," the dark figure said sternly. "You must learn to be brave and find courage if you want to become a wizard. You must quit being so spoiled. You need to be ready for the hard, cold journey, where often times you'll find yourself alone." The dark figures words lingered in the air, and the figure disappeared into the wind. The grass where he had been standing quickly rotted away, leaving a circle of dirt in the midst of the green grass.
"What the heck does that mean?"
I think I do what to echo the words of the protagonist, that was an unusually vague thing to say before this person literally just ran away there..makes me question if the one who's talking about all these rules with such an air of superiority actually knows nothing about what they're saying. Overall, I do think this makes for a pretty fun start here, if a little bit questionable in some small parts here.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
