[written] / [action for the Friend Ship]

[The following appears in neatly written cursive. Hubert has gotten used to speaking into a book by now, but there's a fair amount he wants to talk about, so it's easier to simply write things down.]

In my world, Ephinea, there is something called eleth. Everything in Ephinea is made up of a combination of wind eleth, water eleth, and fire eleth. Eleth can be channeled into artes, which are like magic spells, I think. But you have to use an ore called cryas for it.

In the world some of my crewmates come from, everything there is made up of fonons instead of eleth. There are seven kinds of fonons: shadow, earth, wind, water, fire, light, and sound. They can be channeled into fonic artes through a person's fon slots. Those are like magic spells, too.

But even though I come from a different world than my crewmates, I found out that I could use fonons too. Isn't that cool? Has anyone else tried to learn something different from another world?

Also, what's a good way to keep bugs away? We're in the jungle and I keep getting bitten. The bites are itchy, too.


[Yeah, this is a bit rambly. But the kid's excited, all right? He's been spending a good chunk of the last month trying to learn how to channel fonons, and it's only today that he's made any sort of significant breakthrough. Granted, he's only doing things like manifesting water droplets as opposed to something more offensively effective (which was the whole point of him trying to learn in the first place), but it's a start.

First fonic test: getting enough control over fonons to take down bugs.]

[Crewmates can find Hubert either wading in the sea near the Friend Ship or in the jungle not too far off. He's basically trying to practice his fonic abilities in the coolest places possible -- by which I mean, places where he'll feel a little less like the sun is burning him to a crisp. If he's wading around, he'll be messing with the fourth fonon, and if he's in the jungle he'll be poking at the second or third fonons, which he's been less successful with dealing with so far.]
