[The video comes on to show Miles Prower. He is sitting on a bench somewhere in Neon. He looks into the camera with a neutral expression before clearing his throat before speaking.]

Hello. For those who do not know, my name is Miles Prower. I am currently looking into a matter though I believe I have run into a dead end. I wish to study the magical arts and I have learned the organization known as MAGI takes in students to help them. I wish to enroll this organization's classes. Does anyone know whom I should contact to do this? And should any from MAGI see this, please contact me if you have any useful information you can give me. Thank you for your time.

Mr. Prower?

I'm Katherine Simmons, Guild Leader of MAGI and headmaster of the coursework as well.

The fall session is already under way, but if you don't mind a little extra work, I can see about getting you enrolled.

If you have any questions outside of these, I would be happy to answer them.

Thank you Ms. Simmons. This is certainly helpful to say the least. Can you tell me more about what kind of classes are offered in MAGI?

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

Certainly.

At MAGI, our lessons are designed to cater to what our students require. As most of our students did not have a well-studied background in magic, the majority of our classes at present are designed to educate students on the basics of Primal Earth's Magical background, which appears to be one of the few brands of magic left unaltered by the Digital World.

These classes include magical theory, basic spellcasting, energy channeling and focusing techniques, and magical ethics. That, and one or two electives, will largely make up an inexperienced students' first year.

We've lost a couple of teachers, but between myself, Mr. Gaav, Ms. Inverse, and Ms. Seyruun, the majority of our classes remain intact. After the first year, students are allowed to branch off into their own areas of interest.

Gaav and Lina cover Black Magic, Contractual Spellwork, and Shamanist Practices.

Ms. Seyruun assists in white magic, healing and divination and the like.

I offer instruction in general magic, as well as advanced spellcraft, magical defense and improvisation, and the use of focii.

Beyond that, there is spell school specialization, but... that's generally not something I even want a student to consider until they've found where their strengths and weaknesses lie.

Have you got much experience with magic, Mr. Prower? Or are you inquiring so that you can start down that road?

[dontcallmetails.livejournal.com]

That is quite the variety, to be sure. I actually have had no true training in the mystic arts. I know my family lineage has powerful wizards dating quite a ways back but that is truly all I know. I didn't have the opportunity to study such things in my world.

I do know this is the road I wish to take. I simply need guidance. I'm not so foolish as to try and practice magic on my own.

We lack the staff to teach everything, I'm sad to say, but I don't believe that any school is particularly underrepresented. I even have some experience with Necromancy, in the unlikely event that anyone should desire education in that regard.

So, magic runs in the family? That will likely make it easier for you. Anyone can learn magic, but some are more predisposed to it than others.

And... ah... I said easier, not easy. Without training, I can't promise you'll be able to cast anything beyond simple cantrips and low grade summoning spells until after you've completed at least a semester of study.

But, as I said, if you want to learn, I'm willing to teach.

[dontcallmetails.livejournal.com]

I understand. Anything worthwhile takes time. I do wish to learn. I shall fill out the paperwork and send it back to you as soon as I complete it. Thank you for this opportunity, Ms. Simmons.

Wonderful!

I look forward to seeing you in class.

Oh, and so you don't feel behind...

We're up to the fourth chapter in the spellcraft text, and the third in channeling, if you want to catch yourself up. I will, of course, gladly spare some extra time to tutor you on anything you may need. :)

I will do my best to catch up. And I would appreciate the extra tutoring. Thank you very much.
