Ugh…this is going to be hard…they are all useful depending on how they are applied…Aura bit her lip as she fell into deep thought…should I choose the allowed 3 or just two…then there is that one…if only… "Chloe can I test the spells before choosing?" asked Aura.
[Negative, spells cannot be tested or activated until the trial starts]
"Hmm…what about scenarios, can you run them?" Aura responded, hope evident in her voice.
[Affirmative, what scenario would you like to run]
"Ok, if I wanted to use the spell Object Weave, say on the small black pebbles covering the ground how many could I theoretically use while maintaining the spell for a 24 hour period and conserving some mana in the suit for one other spell?"
[Calculating….I have calculated two options for you that will allow you to use Object Weave continuously for 24 hours base on the weight of the pebbles and mana required]
[Option 1: You can choose to control 10 pebbles. The starting mana required for the spell is one-tenth of a cast, and keeping the 10 pebbles hovering will cost about about 2.4 casts for a 24 hour duration. That's 2.5 casts leaving you with 12.5 for another spell.]
[Option 2: You can chose to control 20 pebble with a cast cost of 5 for a 24 hour period, leaving you with 10 for another spell.]
Well that was helpful…guess i know what i want to pick now.."Chloe I choose Object Weave and Chrono Shift.
[Affirmative unlocking spells chosen]
**********************
In different location, a reasonably tall, yet lean-muscled young man, with black hair and around 16 years of age had just finished looking at a similar screen showing the Trial's available spells.
"Zythera I want to use Blaze Shield and Volt Strike as my spells" Navi said in a firm voice.
[unlocking desired spells]
"Zythera how much time has elapsed since we started talking"
[48 minutes]
12 mins…time enough to get some intel …"Zythera, the Void spawn, what can you tell me about them?" Navi enquired, hoping they were like the monsters he fought in the game, because that would a least give him, his girlfriend and friends an edge, not much of one but it would be a least something, and at the moment any advantage was welcome.
[I can provide basic information about the void spawn you will encounter in the trial, shall I continue?]
"Why are you even asking..Yes" responded Navi, sometimes his AI annoyed him.
[The Void spawn you will encounter in the Trial will be low grade Tier 1. They take the form of apex creatures on the worlds they overrun. Some will be similar to the animals of your world, like wolves and large feline's and some will look vastly different.]
[They are entirely made of void energy with a central void crystal that is constantly moving around whatever shape the void energy has constructed. The higher the grade of void spawn the faster this crystal moves]
[They can shift between a solid or a gas-like form, are know to attack in swarms and the only way to kill them is to shatter their void crystals, they are very hard to kill.]
"Well shit" voiced Navi both worry and frustration evident in his voice…they are worst then the game's versions…at least in the game they were solid and only used void energy…this…this is going to suck…explains why the spell durations are so long though…we wouldn't last 24 hour if they weren't …still need to be careful with casts at least till I meet up with Aura and the others…I hope she's ok…
Navi's thoughts continued to race as he started to think of strategies for dealing with the void spawn based on his spells and chosen weapon, mingled with his concern for the other's, especially Aura. Suddenly his thoughts were interrupted.
[You have one minute till the Trial starts]
