The sealing of the Holy Sword and the unreadable Grimoires
Saber and Storious stared at each other for a few seconds in complete silence until….
"Gha!" Saber exclaimed as he kick the Megid General off him.
"Ohf." Storious grunted as he stumbled back, yet was pleased that half of his plan is completed as Mana got absorbed into a book.
"Who are you?" Rill demanded as he came to Asta's side, paintbrush and colour pallet at the ready.
"I'm Storious. I'm pretty sure that by now that you know who I am." Storious responded, causing both Asta and Rill to become shock.
"Why is a Megid General here?!" Both Magic Knights thought before the captain of the Aqua Deer notice something.
"Asta. Why did you undo your transformation?" Rill asked, causing the ash-white hair boy to blink his eyes in confusion before glancing down and saw that his armor has disappeared.
"How…..?" Asta muttered before placing a hand on the handle of Rekka and attempted to unsheathe the sword of flames from the Seiken Sword-Driver…..but found that he couldn't.
"What?!" Asta exclaimed as he pulled on Rekka, but it wouldn't budge.
"What did you do to Asta's sword?" Rill asked turning his attention back onto Storious.
"I just sealed Rekka within the Seiken Sword-Driver. Whilst its isn't as perfect as Kurayami's sealing powers, it does the job." Storious responded, causing shock expressions on Asta's and Rill's faces.
"S-seriously?!" Asta exclaimed as he continued to tug on Rekka.
"Absolutely. Maybe this wouldn't have happened if you were more careful, swordsman of flames." Storious commented, causing Asta to gain a tick-mark.
"Why should I follow your advice?" Asta growled angrily, causing Storious to chuckle darkly.
It was then that Storious sensed something coming towards him, causing the Megid General to jumped out of the way to avoid getting hit by some clay.
"Huh?" Both Asta and Rill said at the same time before looking in the direction of the attack and saw Kenzan, Klaus and Moulage heading towards them.
"Finishing the cleaning up?" Asta asked with a small smirk on his face.
"Yep!" Kenzan responded, whilst becoming confuse as to why Asta is out of his armor before turning his attention towards Storious.
"So another Megid is here as well." Klaus commented with a serious expression on his face.
"That's Storious, one of the three Megid Generals." Asta responded, causing shock expressions to appear on Klaus's and Moulage's faces.
"Seriously?!" Kenzan exclaimed in an excited tone of voice.
"Please keep on the same page as everyone else." Rill said with a sheepish smile on his face.
"What are you doing here?" Moulage asked whilst keeping her eyes locked on Storious in case he decided to perform a sneak attack.
"Heh. You'll find out…..pretty soon." Storious responded, causing Moulage to become tense.
It was then that more foot steps can be heard, causing the currently gathered people to look in the direction of the foot steps to see Blades, Yuno, Bell, Sol and Willie heading towards them.
"Asta? What are you doing outside your armor?" Blades asked in confusion whilst he approach the wielder of Rekka.
"Er….well…." Asta attempted to come up with a response, but can find the words.
"I sealed it." Storious responded, causing the Blades and Kenzan to become shock.
"What?! How are you capable of doing that?" Blades asked, gripping Nagare tightly.
"Well, if your a close associate of the wielder of Kurayami, you can pick up a few techniques." Storious responded, causing Blades to become tense.
"Who the hell are you?" Sol asked with a serious expression on her face.
"There's no need to introduce myself. I'm sure that the others will do the honors." Storious responded, causing Sol to growl slightly.
"Just answer the question otherwise I'll pummel you to the ground. Earth Creation Magic: Rampaging Mother Earth!" Sol announced, creating her earth-made golem which then dashed towards Storious.
"Sol, don't!" Blades shouted, attempted to stop Sol's attack.
However, it was too late as Rampaging Mother Earth closes onto Storious.
Instead of jumping out of the way, the Megid General stood where he is and shoot a Mana-bullet at the earth-made golem.
Everyone watched as Sol's earth-made golem crumble to pieces.
"He m-manage to destroy my spell so easily…." Sol muttered in a shock tone of voice as she stared at the pieces of earth that once her "Rampaging Mother Earth" spell.
"That's Storious. The strongest out of the three Megid Generals." Blades explained, causing Sol to pale whilst making the other Magic Knights, except Asta and Kenzan, to become tense.
"Now that some Magic Knights in this town have gathered, the plan to can continue…." Storious commented in a dark tone of voice before his Grimoire, which has a black cover with dark red markings, open and began to speak.
"Clay Creation Magic: Hardened Path Prison!" Moulage announced before sending a path towards the Megid General, attempting to stop Storious.
However, before Moulage attack can reach Storious, the Megid General fired a blast of Mana to destroy Moulage's spell before continuing with announcing his spell.
"Cancelation." Storious announced, releasing a wave of Mana that spread until engulfing the Magic Knights.
However, Bell started to glow whilst Blades jumped backwards with the aid of his "Water Creation Magic: Water Lion's paws" spell upon instinct.
Once the attack passed, the Magic Knights examined themselves, but saw no injuries.
"What is that attack supposed to do?" Willie asked, becoming confuse.
"Look at your Grimoires." Storious responded simply, causing the Magic Knights to glance at each other before looking at the pages of their Grimoires.
Their eyes widened when they saw that all of the pages that contain their spells have turned black and completely unreadable.
"W-what have you done?!" Klaus asked as he glared at Storious.
"I possess the unique magic of making pages of any Grimoires unreadable." The Megid General responded, causing everyone to widen their eyes.
"The only way you could have protect yourself against my attack is being possessed by a spirit….." Storious explained, causing everyone to turn towards Yuno.
"I'm safe." Yuno said as he showed his Grimoire which has letters written on a page.
"Of course you would be safe, jerk." Asta thought in annoyance with a black paged Grimoire in his hands.
"I'm safe as well." Blades said as he shown his own Grimoire.
"He must have jumped far enough not to be effected by my spell." Storious thought, a small "frown" appearing on his face.
"Return our Grimoires back to normal at once!" Moulage demanded with a serious expression on her face.
"And why should I reverse my work?" Storious responded with a "smirk" on his face before the pages of his Grimoire began to turn.
This caused everyone to become tense as they watched as Storious's Grimoire stopped on a page.
"Writing: Spatial Magic." Storious announced before summoning a black portal.
"Spatial magic?!" Everyone thought just as Storious began to walk through the portal.
"Hey! Stay where you and return our Grimoires back to normal!" Moulage shouted as she activate her magic, despite knowing that whatever she throw at the Megid General won't be powerful without the aid of her Grimoire.
"If you want to return your Grimoires to how they once were, then I suggest heading to Avalon. There lies the power that is capable of restoring your erased pages." Storious explained before completely disappearing into the black portal which then closed.
"He's gone." Willie grumbled with a frown on his face.
"AAAAH! What I'm I supposed to do?! How can I face my captain and my squamates with a Grimoire that has unreadable pages?!" Moulage exclaimed with a panic expression on her face, replacing the cold and serious personality.
"My Grimoire got effected as well. So you're not the only one." Rill said, attempting to cheer Moulage. "
But you are from a different squad, Captain Rill…." Moulage responded in a weak tone of voice.
"At least the citizens aren't aware of what happened." Klaus pointed out, glancing towards the other side of the square where the citizens and the other Magic Knights, including Mimosa, are.
"I guess that some small form of comfort." Sol commented, seeing how the citizens won't loose faith towards them.
"This is certainly troublesome." Blades commented with a frown underneath his helmet.
"Yep! Especially Asta." Kenzan said whilst jabbing a thumb towards Asta who held up his Seiken Sword-Driver.
"Indeed….?" Blades said before realizing that all the other Magic Knights are staring at the three Sword Of Logos Magic Knights.
"W-why are you staring at us?" Asta asked in a slight startled tone of voice.
"Isn't it a bit obvious that you people have more knowledge on the Megid" Yuno responded blankly whilst Bell nodded her head in agreement.
"Er….Does any of you two where this Avalon place is?" Asta asked, glancing towards Blades and Kenzan.
"I'm afraid I don't know." Blades responded in a nervous tone of voice.
"Nope! Never heard of the place." Kenzan responded simply.
With the other Magic Knights, they sweat-drop at the responses.
"We certainly going at a good start." Willie commented in a sarcastic tone of voice.
"I suppose that Captain Sophia may know where Avalon is located." Blades said with a thoughtful expression underneath his helmet.
"And what about the rest of us?" Klaus asked whilst becoming curious, causing the swordsman of water to frown.
"I guess that you should all come back to base with us." Blades responded, causing everyone to become shock.
"A-are you sure that is a good idea?" Asta asked as he stared at Blades.
"Well, I think its best for everyone to keep stay together for now until we figure things out." Blades explained, causing Asta to nod his head slightly.
"I'll contact headquarters. The Wizard King will likely contact Jack, Vangeance, Silva, Ogami and Sophia." Rill offered, causing Blades to nod his head….whilst making one Silver Eagle Magic Knight relieved that she herself won't be contacting her captain.
Elsewhere, Storious step out of other side of the black portal in his human form.
"I guess that from the smirk on your face that the plan is a success." Calibur commented, him currently being the same room.
"Yes. Although a Megid and Mage from the Eye Of The Midnight Sun have to be sacrificed, the stage is set. With some Magic Knights's Grimoires becoming unreadable along with Rekka becoming sealed, the Sword Of Logos be motivated to find the whereabouts of Avalon." Storious explained, making Calibur nod his head slightly.
"Now it's just a waiting game for Saber to bring the "Brave Dragon" Wonder-Ride book to the gateway." Calibur spoke as he glanced towards a table where a large book and 13 Alter-Ride books are sitting.
"Tell me, what are planning on doing once you claim the power that sleeps within Avalon?" Storious asked, becoming curious.
"….." Calibur became silent.
Within the headquarters of the Sword Of Logos, Tetsuo is in his workshop.
"Hmm. It's just not working." Tetsuo muttered in frustration as he stared at the project that he's been attempting to fix on for some time.
"Everything's seems alright. It just need one factor for it to work properly, but what?" Tetsuo thought, a frown appearing on his face as he attempted to unravel the mystery that the broken object has landed itself in.
The Mechanic of the Sword Of Logos took deep sigh whilst leaning back on the chair that he is sitting on.
However, it was at that moment that a small humming sound is head, causing Tetsuo to become curious, but along with being relieved, before turning his attention towards a small device that indicates if the sensors in the meeting room have picked up anything.
The Mechanic of the Sword Of Logos took a final glance towards his project before standing up and made his way towards the meeting room.
Once Tetsuo reached the meeting room and looked at the sensors, he became wide eyed.
"Well, here we are." Rintaro said as he, Asta, Rin and the rest of the Magic Knights that got their Grimoires effected by Storious's magic stood outside the headquarters of the Sword Of Logos.
"So this the headquarters of the Sword Of Logos." Moulage commented as she examine the structure of the building.
"Hehehe. This is kind of exciting." Mimosa said with a smile on her face, the Vermillion hair girl having decided to come along as well.
"Let's get inside shall we?" Rintaro said, causing everyone to nod their heads before heading towards the doors of the headquarters.
When the doors opened, they saw Noelle, Donna and Ryo standing within the entrance hall.
"Yo! Back from your patrol?" Asta greeted, making the three already present Magic Knights begin to look up.
"Yes. Did anything interesting hap-whoooaa." Donna began to say but became surprise when she, along with Noelle and Ryo saw the other Magic Knights.
"Yep. You can say that something interested happened." Rin responded with a sheepish smile on her face.
"…..Did you invite them or….?" Ryo asked in a confused tone of voice as he gave the three arrived Kamen Riders a raised eye-brow.
"Not intentionally, no." Asta responded as he scratched the back of his head.
"Just give a proper answer, Bakasta." Noelle said in a blank tone of voice just after giving Moulage a quick glance.
"I've been informed about their arrival." A voice spoke, causing everyone to turn their heads towards the direction of the voice to see Sophia and Tetsuo.
"Did something happened whilst on patrol?" Donna asked, glancing towards the Magic Knights from the other squads whilst starting to become serious.
"Can you all follow me to the meeting room, we can discuss further there." Sophia said, making everyone nod their heads.
"Storious appeared?!" Noelle, Donna, Ryo and Fiona exclaimed in a shock tone of voice.
Currently, everyone is gathered in the meeting room including the maid of the Sword Of Logos.
When Fiona first saw the other Magic Knights, she became startled.
"There's no need to shout." Tetsuo muttered whilst wincing slightly.
"Yes. He'd appeared and then erased the pages of everyone's Grimoires, apart from Yuno's, Mimosa's and Rintaro's, along with sealing Asta's sword." Rill explained, making Tetsuo turn his attention towards Asta.
"Is this true?" Tetsuo asked, causing Asta to nod his head whilst getting out his Seiken Sword-Driver.
The Mechanic of the Sword Of Logos took Asta's driver and examined it, even attempting to pull Rekka out of the sheathe.
"I attempted that but it wouldn't budge." The ash-white hair teen said with a slight smile on his face.
"You didn't break anything, did you?" Tetsuo asked whilst giving the wielder of Rekka a slight glare.
"N-no! Of course not." Asta quickly responded whilst backing away.
"He's seemed protective of those swords." The other Magic Knights thought, sweat-dropping at Tetsuo's behavior.
"But still. To replicate the sealing powers of Kurayami to some extent….I didn't know that was possible, even for a Megid General…" The Mechanic of the Sword Of Logos muttered as he examined the Seiken Sword-Driver again.
"What is Kurayami? Storious mention that name before." Moulage asked, becoming curious.
"Kurayami is a Holy Sword known as the sword of darkness whose powers are different from the rest of the Holy Swords." Sophia responded just as Donna become tense.
"And it is in the Megid's possession?" Moulage guessed, remembering what Storious said. The question caused a frown to appear on Sophia's face. "The current wielder Kurayami…..joined the Megid's side ten years ago." Sophia responded in a stiff tone of voice, making Moulage nod her head slightly as she starting to realize that she's stepping into a touchy subject.
"How come the three of you were spared?" Ryo asked, deciding to move on with the subject as he looked at Rintaro, Yuno and Mimosa.
"I was protected due to being a host of a spirit and Rintaro managed to get out of the spell's range. Mimosa was busy with healing the citizen's injuries." Yuno explained, making the swordsman of the earth nod his head.
"But why would Storious use his powers on low ranking Magic Knights?" Tetsuo questioned with a small frown on his face.
"Hey!" Rill exclaimed in a slight annoyed tone of voice.
"….Plus one captain." Tetsuo added, making Rill nod his head.
"Did Storious say anything?" Sophia asked as she look at the Magic Knights.
"No. but he did mentioned about going to a place called "Avalon" if we want to fix our Grimoires." Sol responded, making the senior members of the Sword Of Logos, Sophia, Tetsuo and Ryo, to perk up.
"You heard of it?" Klaus asked, feeling slightly hopeful.
"Its a lost place." Ryo responded, causing Klaus to sweat-drop.
"You seriously don't know where it is?" Mimosa asked, feeling slightly horrified.
"Many Magic Knights of the Sword Of Logos have attempted to find Avalon, but to no avail." Sophia responded sadly, causing Mimosa to drop her head slightly.
"So what now? We can't return our Grimoires back to normal unless we get to this Avalon place and claim whatever power that Storious mentioned." Willie pointed out, causing Sophia to frown.
"There may be some answers within the books that we have in the library." Sophia responded, causing the Magic Knights to gain slight hopeful expressions on their faces.
"If you want to stay and help with the research, you may. I'll contact your respective captains….or Vice-captain in the case of Captain Rill." Sophia explained, making everyone nod their heads.
"That's all for now. You better head to the library and start researching." Sophia said, making everyone nod their heads.
It was at that moment that Tetsuo walked up to the captain of the Sword Of Logos and whispered something in her ear.
This caused everyone to become curious as they saw a confuse expression appear on Sophia's face before widening in surprise.
"Actually, can you come to my office please, Yuno." Sophia said, causing everyone to become surprise.
"So what do you want to talk to me about?" Yuno asked once he and Sophia entered her office.
"What we are going to talk about is very secret, something that only a handful of Magic Knights, including the Wizard King, knows about." Sophia responded, making Yuno slowly nod his head.
"The current aim of the Eye Of The Midnight Sun is to collect these items known as Magic Stones which are capable of amplifying ones Mana. The attack on the Royal Capital was in order to steal the Magic Stone that was in Captain Fuegoleon's possession." Sophia explained, making Yuno's widened his eyes.
"Why exactly are you telling me this?" Yuno asked, become confuse.
"Isn't obvious, Yuno. You are an almighty Magic Knight who has been chosen by the great spirit of the winds." Bell said as she suddenly appear out of Yuno's Grimoire with a smug expression on her face.
"It isn't that." Sophia responded blankly, causing Bell to droop slightly.
"Once we discovered that the Eye Of The Midnight Sun is attempting to collect these Magic Stones, the Wizard King have given the task of finding the locations of the other Magic Stones to the Sword Of Logos mainly because we are able to pick up the magic signals that the Magic Stones gives off. Earlier, before you and the others returned, Mr Daishinji discovered that a magic signal is heading straight towards our base. Once you all came into the building, he managed to pin-point the signal towards you." Sophia explained, causing Yuno to blink his eyes.
"Do you have any stone-like objects on you, like a good-luck charm?" Sophia asked, making Yuno tense.
"The only stone-like object that I have is this." Yuno responded as he held up his necklace which has a small green stone that has picture of a cross embedded in the center.
This cause Sophia to become surprise before picking up a device on her table and brought it up to Yuno's necklace which started to beep.
"So you possess a Magic Stone after all…." Sophia muttered before placing the device back onto the table.
"Where did you found the necklace? Was it some sort of birthday gift or something?" Sophia asked, sounding slightly serious.
"It was on me when I discovered at the church back at Hage village. It probably belong to the people who placed me there." Yuno explained, making Sophia nod her head slightly.
"Has the stone reacted to your magic in anyway?" Sophia asked, to which Yuno shook his head.
"I see…." The captain of the Sword Of Logos said, lowering her head slightly.
"Do you think that I may get targeted because of my necklace?" Yuno asked, causing Sophia to frown slightly.
"From what we gathered from the prisoners, the Eye Of The Midnight Sun are aiming to collect ten Magic Stones for their ultimate aim. However, we have retrieved the remaining Magic Stones that the Eye Of The Midnight Sun still needed for their plan." Sophia explained, causing Yuno to frown before glancing down at his necklace.
"Is it possible that the prisoners have only been told about collecting ten Magic Stones, but the leader has plans for collecting more Magic Stones later?" Yuno asked, causing Sophia to gain a thoughtful expression on her face.
"I guess that could be a possibility, but for now, I suggest that you keep a firm hold on your necklace. If the Eye Of The Midnight Sun discover your Magic Stone, then they may attempt to steal and use it as a replacement. From what we been told by the Witch Queen, they are likely to use the Magic Stones for some sort of forbidden spell." Sophia explained, making Yuno nod his head.
"Hah! Like if some terrorist group can defeat my Yuno." Bell said in a prideful tone of voice, but is ignored as Yuno turn around and head towards the door.
"What are doing now, are you going back to the Golden Dawn or help out with the research?" Sophia asked, becoming curious.
"I'm going back to base, I believe that Asta and the others are capable of finding the answers themselves." Yuno responded, making Sophia nod her head.
And there we go, Storious has sealed the sword of flames and some Magic Knight's Grimoire with his magic, the names for the spells having come from one of the readers, resulting in all of them heading back to the Sword Of Logos's base. So Yuno and Bell has been told about the mission about collecting the Magic Stones when it is revealed that he himself posses a Magic Stone as well. It is shown that Tetsuo is working on a personal project of his own. I decided to write how those who have been blessed with the powers of a spirit are safe from Storious's magic, for now that is, and decided to spare Blades, due to his upcoming power-up form.
So in Black Clover, Asta finally learns about Liebe's past and seeing his mum for the first time. It is also revealed that Liebe also blames himself for Richita's death. with Asta cheering Liebe up, the two of them managed to change the appearance of the Devil Union form, causing a fifth horn to appear, making Asta's headband to go around his neck, his eyes changing and the marking on his cheeks changing as well. I'm a bit surprise when Asta called Liebe "brother", meaning that he was quick to enough to realize that Richita is his mum as well at the appearance of the fifth horn since all the other Devils have a maximum of four horns. This could indicate that Asta is walking further into the usage of Devil-relating powers.
Other news is that an official teaser trailer for the upcoming Black Clover has been released, revealing that the movie will come out sometime in 2023 and from the looks of things, Since Asta is in his post time-skip self yet doesn't possess his Devil arm, this movie will take place during the 6-month training period. I'm not sure how to include the events of the upcoming movie into the story, I need to think about it.
So in Revice, Kagero decides to settle things between him and Daiji once and for all, which ended up with his defeat and giving Daiji the "Holy Wing" Vistamp, formally known as the incomplete "Crow" Vistamp, which he then used to transform into Holy Live. The episode also shows Olteca using the Anomalocaris proto-Vistamp to form the Bata+Scorpion+Anomalocaris Genomix. The "Thunder-Gale" proto-Vistamp also made it's appearance.
Please review and until next time.
Dragon Rider 66:
1) Indeed, poor glass Mage getting bullied...especially by Bell and with Asta, you saw what has happened with him and some of the other Magic Knights.
2) You can say that this mission set the foundation for the tournament, yes.
3) Well, the battle is about to change with the appearance of the five-horn Devil Union form.
4) I can see the possibility of Giff controlling any one of the sibling Riders, plus dad, Vice and Lovekov, through his genes that each one possess.
5) If Asta and Rebecca, plus her siblings, do meet up during the festival, then he will be on the look out if Rin is nearby, along with making Noelle jealous and Kahono become curious.
6) It's just Moulage, Willie, Sol and Rill will mainly be the newly introduce characters for this arc.
7) So it's something similar to a Wonder-Combo then.
8) Well, it looks like the Magic Knights from different squads will be doing a bonding "activity" next chapter.
9) Hirome getting some body modifications in order to wield the Demons Driver again? That seems possible since that is well used element within the Kamen Rider series.
10) The human Mana would come from another source. Maybe some of Yami's Mana somehow gets transferred over to Asta and Liebe and since it will be infused with dark magic, which originates from the underworld, the human Mana won't be canceled by Liebe's anti-magic.
At first Metatron's servant won't be happy about being paired with a human since they prefer to work by Metetron's side, but after a while, plus Asta's personality, the Angel servant will have a more positive view about working with a human. Asta's and Maria's trial will go different with Metatron's apperance.
11) So the Legend Rider aspect are possibly incorporated into the power-up forms as well, huh?
12) I guess we just have to wait and see for any future V-Cinema specials for Saber.
13) If Charmy does eat a fruit version of the lockseed, then it may transform her into a Inves/dwarf hybrid.
14) I guess there's a possibility that the Vail Driver won't have all the aspects like the Demons Driver, but we just have to wait and see.
15) I think that the Giff Vistamp would allow a high-ranking Devil to enter the human world than a normal Vistamp.
Farhan Nugraha:
1) I guess that Noelle will be kind of sad at Leviathan's absence because despite Leviathan acting like her darker self, she/he was one of the few people that Noelle can find comfort with as she grew up, but having a fragment of Leviathan's power within the "Holy Wing" Vistamp would probably counter that.
2) Thanks for the Wonder-Ride book idea.
3) The Silva siblings will be horrified at the thought that every time that Acier transforms into Zeronos, they slowly losing their memories of her.
4) Super Sentai isn't my main focus but I find Avataro Sentai Don-brothers unique because it's the first series to have a male pink Ranger with him and the black Ranger both being CGI, as of right now if the sixth ranger and other future Rangers are CGI as well.
5) I think Noelle will be more focused on her ranger name:
Noelle: Oni-Sister? What does "Oni" mean.
Don-Momotaro: "Oni" is a type of demon.
Noelle: Demon!? I've transformed into a demon?!
Don-Momotaro in a jolly tone of voice: Relax, relax! You don't have to take it seriously.
6) Noelle won't like that:
Within Noelle's mind as she watch Don-Momotaro laughing in a carefree manner: This is the guy I'm supposed to swear loyalty to? I'm royalty, he should be swearing loyalty to me!
7) That would be interesting to see, Asta learning a new type of sword style when he and the others go to the country of Hino.
8) Well, Noelle won't punch Asta like she always does, but will have a difficult time confessing mainly due to Asta obsessing over Sister Lilly.
9) If Noelle sees the spirit of her mother, then she will show some distance towards Acier since it has been drilled into her head that she's responsible for her death and is convinced that Acier is there to torment her. It will take some time for the spirit form of Acier to convince Noelle that she isn't there to further torment her and tell her truth about her death, or at least a version that doesn't involve Megicula to protect Noelle from being cursed herself. Acier will have a fun time teasing Noelle about her crush on Asta, which would intensify when Noelle encounters the spirit of Richita.
Itspowertime:
1) Thank you very much.
2) Sorry that I can't come up with a name for Storious's magic.
