Later that night, Claudia started telling Callum about the primal magic she knew, and teaching it to him.

"So, what primal magic do you know, Callum?"

"Well, there's the two you already showed me. But, uh, aside from that I don't really know any." He answered, though Claudia was sure she only remembered showing him the one.

"I showed you two?"

"Yeah, well, I mean technically you only showed me the first part of the lightning spell when you were trying to use it on Rayla, but" Callum explained, "We did eventually figure out the rest of it."

"Ah." Claudia said, "Hmm, well, I don't know that much primal magic, but my dad did teach me how to do an ice spell."

"An ice spell?"

"Yeah, although it's kind of a big spell." Claudia looked at their surroundings, "I'm not sure if this place is really going to be big enough."

"Oh. Is there anywhere else we could do, or anything else you know?"

"Yeah... But I think we might run into a similar problem."

She looked into the distance, deep in thought. A lot of the things she knew how to do with primal magic would require a bigger area to do them in without getting caught.

Claudia remembered her conversation with Ezran, once again.

"It's pretty cool you don't need a primal stone anymore, Callum," Claudia told him, "You know, I didn't hear the full story to that."

"It is kind of a long story. I mean, I was talking to Lujanne and she said that humans weren't born connected to a primal source, so I made my own connection."

"How did you do that?" She asked.

Callum's explaination was confusing, and she honestly didn't understand most of it.

"Huh. Maybe you should teach me sometime." Claudia suggested.

"Yeah, maybe." He agreed.

Rayla watched the whole conversation, keeping an eye on Claudia.

She knew she had to be up to something again.

Rayla wasn't sure what Claudia was up to, but she was sure it was something. But she wouldn't be able to. She was probably lying to them again, but she and Callum had talked about it briefly.

Claudia was probably going to keep following them, and they couldn't really stop her. But she said she could teach Callum some more primal magic. Though, she wasn't sure if they were doing that. It mostly just looked like they were talking.

It would definitely be useful for Callum to know a little bit more. Claudia was right when she said it was dangerous, and there was a chance that Rayla might not be able to help Callum sometimes.

Still, Rayla couldn't believe Claudia would betray her own friends.

And she couldn't believe she fell for it. Even when she knew they were lying, she almost started to understand when Callum said it was Soren who lied to him, because she was getting to know Claudia. But she was right.

Zym walked up to Rayla, and she pet the baby dragon, "What do you think?"

He looked up to her confused, like he wasn't sure what in particular she was referring to or maybe he just didn't know why she asked his opinion. Zym attempted to play, and she smiled at him.

Callum walked up and sat down, "So, Rayla."

She turned towards him.

"Claudia told me about some of the spells she wants to teach me."

"So she taught you?"

"Well... No, not yet."

"Great." Rayla said, sarcastically.

"I know." Callum sighed, "She said we need a bigger area, so she might have to stick with us if I'm going to learn primal magic."

"She's probably just lying so she can betray you again."

Callum looked down, "Maybe."

Rayla stared at Claudia. She was sitting in the grass, for some reason. Rayla wasn't sure what she was up to, but it seemed to be taking awhile.

It was late, and Claudia didn't really feel like going to sleep.

Rayla didn't seem to, either, she noticed. She was staring at Claudia, probably because she didn't trust her.

It had actually been quite awhile since she had talked to Rayla, so she walked up to the tree that Rayla was sitting in, "Hey."

"What are you doing?" Rayla questioned, jumping down from the tree.

"I was trying to have a conversation." Claudia smiled, "I haven't really talked to you, and since you're up anyway, we might as well, right?"

"No."

"Okay." Claudia sighed, and started to walk away.

"What are you up to?"

Claudia turned around to look at Rayla. She seemed like she was ready to pull out her weapons and fight her, even though Claudia had no intention of fighting her, or betraying her or anything.

"What do you mean?" Claudia asked.

"I know you're up to something and you're just going to betray him again."

"I'm not going to do that." Claudia said, "I'm not up to anything. I'm just trying to help by teaching Callum some primal magic."

"You haven't even taught him anything yet." She replied.

"I would have, but this area isn't big enough." Claudia pointed out, "They could all pretty much completely destroy it, and it seems a little late to find a new place to stay."

Claudia walked away. Rayla wasn't going to trust her anytime soon, she barely even trusted her before she betrayed them. Callum didn't even really trust her, and they had know each other for a long time.

It wasn't going to be easy to convince them they could trust her. But if they were in danger and they needed her help, she was there to help them, at least.

She might be able to convince them to let her stay around them for a couple of days to teach Callum primal magic, but she wasn't sure if she could convince them to let her go with them in that amount of time. She could definitely try, though.

Afterall, Callum and Ezran hadn't trusted Rayla immediately, but they still went with her.
