Lunar magic training.
Zaks was looking around the village or what was shaping up into town with all the new Saiyans from the surface moving into the place for Maya but could not find her. *** Wonder where she went.** Zaks suddenly felt stupid and relaxed her mind allowing her to feel the countless power levels all around the village. Soon she could feel Maya's Unique power signature and started to head in her direction with a pit in her stomach forming. The reason for her uneasiness was that she was heading to the hall of ancestors where the dead were buried at the top of the tribe's walls. The building was one of the few buildings that were made of enchanted stone that allowed it to survive the test of time. It was said that the ancestors watched over the tribe from within and many came to leave offerings asking for help or just to say hello. Sure enough she was inside and Zaks felt proud she hesitated only a moment before heading inside.
Once inside she went to her Family's room where she found Maya kneeling at the altar speaking prayers to her family's dead. The prayers were asking for guidance to inspire her and a few were asking for patience that Zaks was sure directed at her. Regardless she knew Maya knew she was there but still waited for her to finish as she was scared to speak to the ancestors. When she was done Maya turned to Zaks and gestured for her to follow her outside. Once outside She turned to Zaks and placed her hands on her hips in an attempt to look stern to the woman that was literally ten times her age.** So you broke the training hall by your Excessive power. So I was asking for insight from mom, the last head shaman of the Village and had an idea.** she glared up at Zaks and spoke firmly to her leader..family..and best friend.** The reason they broke is the lack of magical power in the stones to control that much power and I had the idea that YOU! Need to put your power into them. So you will learn magic starting today first thing in the morning. Once you are ready you will help me fix them. Do you understand??** Zaks nodded her head in compliance and watched her leave in a huff just to hear her shout. ** MY HOUSE! 9th BELL!** and with that she was completely gone making her shrug and smile. It was true your magic was partially dictated by how much KI you had but that wasn't all. It sounded like Maya wanted to brute force the issue.
–following day–
Zaks sat crossed legged inside Mayas house as she waited for her to speak. The younger tribesmen was meditating as she did every morning since she became the tribe's shaman years ago. Though once the 9th bell sounded she opened her eyes and smiled at Zaks. Zaks could not be sure if it was planned or not from the younger woman but there was a slight ominous feeling listening to the bell ring nine times under her gaze. ** So Zaks. As you know the training grounds need to get bigger and grow to withstand more punishment from you and the warriors. Unfortunately ** she waved around herself with both her hands in a sad questure.** None of the mages here have that sort of power. Not even myself buutt.. since your the one that keeps breaking it and you're the one that I'd already taught magic partially. You with an abnormally high amount of KI will be perfect to reinforce the training grounds once you learn how to do basic magic. So without further ado let's begin oh fearless leader** Zaks could not help but smile at Mayas antics from trying to look wise and omniscient to treating her bluntly. The woman treated her like she did everyone else and it was a welcome change from the near worship the other tribesmen had for her.
– a week later–
Zaks had been under almost constant supervision of Maya learning the lunar tribes magic and it had many more uses then Just creating things that the tribe needed. It could reinforce objects from buildings to weapons that under normal circumstances break under the strain. But it also was used to grow crops to guide water to them from underground veins. Some of the shamans could even heal wounds or create ever burning torches and candles. The artificial light that was found in the tribe's living area was also a magic from the old tribe that came before Zak's awakening. The light was a giant gem that floated above the village's waterfall sending out a gentle silver light that seemed to calm all it touched.
Currently Zaks was learning how to reinforce a spear that laid across her lap and was intently focused on the task. Her hands hovered over the spear with a silver light leaving her hands that almost seemed to take a solid shape as it entered the spear below her. One of the reasons she was taking her time was so it could be done properly and not break like all of its predecessors had under strain. First few Maya had snatched up and smashed herself to prove how little she actually had made it stronger. After that Zaks began to test them herself to make sure they passed under her own might. Once she was done with this one she would move onto more to get even more practice before tomorrow changing the object. Soon she would make the actual attempt on the arena.
-Two weeks later-
The tribe's magic users stood in a giant Circle in the center of the training ground's combat room or cave. Each held hands and chanted the same words as everyone else as they poured the magic into the circle of runes on the ground. Most of them were only adding a moderate amount of ki to the circle while the rest of it was to help shape Zaks Ki into effective magic and thanks to Zak's training was able to loan or transfer her KI to them to use. Zaks unfortunately did not understand enough yet unlike the rest of them to really help besides to act like a giant battery for them. But from what she could tell it was working and zaks focused on the chant** aru bu aru bu. Vi se mek! Vi se mek!** so far the magic had worked splendidly and zaks knew they were finishing shortly. To say she was surprised when they finished after hours long ritual was an understatement. Zaks merely nodded to the others who all seemed just as drained as her and wandered off on unsteady feet. Tomorrow she would inspect the ring
