Kyreg: Yeah, coming up with offensive spells that aren't just a copy of each other with a different trigger are hard to do. Earth will have a small variety as will moon and star. That idea of control over the primal sources could serve as a major plot point in the sequel.

Purple-Eyes Dragon: Oh yes, that's a good idea, I didn't really know what else to give Ocean other then healing. Hmm, I'll keep that in mind when it comes to final book for the Khothori.

Mana: Hmm, yes, I see that you agree with Purple-Eyes Dragon, I will give Ocean some form of that, since healing spells would render it with very few spells.

Amaya's message

The Arena was silent, a few birds chirped about as Callum stood tall at the centre. His eyes closed as he held his staff tightly within his hands. He listened to the air around him, the footsteps of his Aunt's best men as they came towards him.

As he listened to the boots of the human troopers, he gently moved back, bringing his staff up before him. Opening his eyes, he moved, blocking the first strike. The soldier blinked in surprise at his reflexes. Callum offered no room for him to respond, kicking his leg out from underneath him before moving with his staff.

Ibis's words of advice and training with the staff, the few things he learned from Flardryn during their spares. They all raced through his mind as he darted around a few of the soldiers. Using his ability to fly, he managed to gain air and flip over a few of them, using the base of his staff to knock a few of them to the ground as he did so.

Amaya watched from a distance, amazed at the skill Callum had. She had spent many years wondering what Callum's natural weapon was, she had determined it wasn't a sword the first time she'd watched him in his training. But here, she could see that the longer pole like weapons suited. Just like his mother.

But watching him now, in his true form, embracing his true heritage and ability, she was happy for him. She was one of the few trusted individuals who knew Callum's father. Not even King Harrow knew about Arathorn, nor did Viren or the council. Sarai, Arathorn, his family, a Moonshadow mage and herself were all that knew about Callum's presence as a Half-Elf.

Her thoughts were pushed aside as she saw the last of her men fall to the ground with a grunt. She clapped as she walked forward and signed something. She watched as Callum smiled in response.

As Callum turned, he saw Flardryn enter the arena, Janai by his side. He made a small nod towards his teacher and a bowed before Janai. "Queen Janai, Flardryn." He greeted, watching as Amaya bowed before Janai.

"I am puzzled by your unannounced arrival General Amaya." Janai said, coming to a stop before them.

Callum glanced up at his aunt who began to translate. "Um, she says she has come on the behalf of King Ezran regarding the recent issues with the Elven Warlords."

Janai frowned. "We should move this to a more… private location. There are rumours of spies within Lux Aurea who associate with the Warlords." She replied, leading the way out.

The four stood in a private chamber, each watching the other closely. "So, what has Katolis got to say about our issues?" Janai asked, a little concerned in the way that they are intrigued by this news.

Amaya looked towards Callum and signed. Callum nodded and began to translate. "The people are concerned for the safety of Prince Callum, but I am more so regarding his heritage." He paused as he watched what Amaya was saying. "I can't say that Amaya, not without offending anyone present." He exclaimed.

Flardryn exchanged a glance with Janai before he shook his head. "I know my sign language quite well, and I must say, I can see the point your making. I too would be made if they wanted to kill a member of my family just because he was a Half Elf." He said.

Callum glanced at Janai who rolled her eyes. "What does Katolis want?" She asked.

Amaya started to sign to which Callum translated. "They want Prince Callum to return, even if King Ezran is hellbent on saying that no matter what, they would support the Dragon Queen against any rebellion from Elves."

Flardryn nodded approvingly. "A wise one that young king of yours. I'm surprised by his wisdom at such a young age." He said, having met Ezran once before during a meeting with Janai a few weeks back.

Callum nodded. "Yeah, being forced into a position of leadership will do that to you." He said, glancing over towards Janai. "But given what was said today, I won't return, even if the council demands that I return." He said.

Amaya nodded and signed. Callum smirked as he translated. "That what I told them when they sent me to fetch you."

Janai shook her head. "You better return fast and inform them that Lux Aurea would welcome their aid against the Warlords." She said, turning around as she left with Amaya.

Callum glanced up at Flardryn who nodded. "We better continue your training then Callum."

The two stood within the arena, both of them looking over the training dummies. "For this next set of spells, the wave spells, they are a very, unique spell. They work in a way that is self-explanatory, they deliver waves of offensive energy. However, the two spells both differ greatly, where one of them fires in all directions, the other only fires off in a single direction." Flardryn explained, stepping forward as he drew a rune into the air.

"As with the orb spells, they also have different levels of strengths. A partial rune renders the spell weak; half a rune gives the spell half the strength of a full rune. But the first spell you'll learn is Furnus Fluctus. I suggest you step back for this one as I demonstrate it at full power." He said.

Callum nodded in understanding and backed away, keeping his distance as Flardryn breathed in and out deeply. "Furnus Fluctus." He said, sending out a wave of fire in all directions. Callum blinked as he watched the spell take action.

"As with the orb spells, each power level indicates the radius of such a wave. At full power, they can cover a good area." Flardryn said, stepping away from Callum as he surrendered the arena to him.

Callum drew a portion of the rune before he glanced at Flardryn who nodded. "Furnus Fluctus." He said, watching as a wave of fire pushed out from him in all directions only to die off shortly afterwards. "That was short lived." He stated.

Flardryn shook his head. "That was at its weakest form." He explained, walking forward before he stood before Callum. "The next wave spell if Accendo Fluctus. It sends a wave of light out in a single direction. Like the other members of the Accendo chain, it provides the same amount of light and force to push a foe back." He said, drawing a rune into the air.

Callum took a step backwards as the elder Elf closed his eyes. "Accendo Fluctus." Flardryn said, sending a wave of blinding light surging forth towards the training dummies only to fade away in seconds.

Flardryn turned to face Callum and smiled. "You try it now." He said, stepping back behind his apprentice.

Callum drew a portion of the rune into the air and closed his eyes. "Accendo Fluctus." He said, opening his eyes as a small wave of relativity bright light surged forth. "Nice to know that at full power it's blinding." He said, turning to face his teacher.

Flardryn nodded. "Indeed, not many Sun Mages tend to use this spell thanks to the lack of situations where it could be useful. But I'm sure you may find a use for such a spell." He said. "Come, I think you've deserved some rest after your long day fighting against you aunt's elite men and having to cast these spells." He said, leading the way out of the arena.

From a distance, one of the guards watched, ready to report back to Kolvar.

Two more chapters until we're done with the Sun Arcanum, we see Kolvar again next chapter as well as the second last set of Sun spells.
