A return to roots

It's been some time since I taught or tutored.
Some time since I took on apprentices and held lessons.
She said I should do so again.

That I should find more people to care for and train, to mentor.
She knew me better than most, after all...
So close to my heart as she was, to have seen the true face of me.

Upon numerous requests for tutoring and education in various fields, fliers find their way into many cities across Meranthe.

The Captain-General of the Goldlight Order, Grey Aundeoth, will be holding lessons in certain disciplines. This spring, he intends to begin with Order, by popular demand. Upcoming subjects may include Chaos, Arcane, and Shadow Magic. While he professes an ability to teach Telepathy, the nature of those lessons is better suited to a one on one basis.

This time? A lesson in Stasis. All prospective learners are instructed to bring a few pieces of amber and orichalcum to work with. Five and twenty are recommended.

The Arcane is a metaphysical discipline. Stasis is one of the easiest things to learn, and the first bulwark against the madness that comes from Chaotic forces.

All that you require is the will to take hold of something, and never let it go.

More lessons are to follow, quote, "When I feel like it."

Another wave of posters rolls out, another notification from the Captain-General of a new lesson to be taught, in the arcane arts.

Today, a lesson in Chaos. Decomposition is the stated subject. The lesson is restricted to those over the age of 18 only, and security has been elevated for it. Participants are asked to bring a sum of briarwood - around 20, and a sum of Tyrium, around 5.

Those who participated in the lesson in Stasis are most advised to attend, and bring the results of their work from the last class. A fortified mind is strongly advised, though a thorough briefing will be provided ahead of time on how to endure exposure to the magic known for it's maddening influence.

Decomposition is the most fundamental aspect of Chaos magic, a sublimely useful art for refinement and- at times- destruction. It is fundamental to the practice of Transmutation and Transformation, the opposite side of the coin that is Arcane Magic.

Be well warned, chaotic magic does not play well with the mind. You will need to follow my instructions exactly, for you will be instructed in how to ward against Madness within yourself. The lesson in Stasis will suit you well for this. While I had originally intended to teach more of Order, changing circumstances request Chaos come to the fore.

I hope you have been experimenting and studying as advised. Your lens of Stasis will suit you well, here.

Further- keep well safe the products of these lessons, for we will be working them together into a finished creation in the end. If you miss a lesson, try to make up the missing piece, or create something else after the final tutoring.
