To Vayne, Roxis and Isolde-sensei

[exceedinglife]

Okay, I found the reference I was talking about yesterday. It's in the book Rites and Pacts of the Alchemists-- I knew I'd read something like this a while back, we read it for freshman classes

Ahaheheheh... heh... I don't think sensei is feeling well enough for something like that, right?

[exceedinglife]

I really doubt it... right now, anyway. In fact I'm pretty sure it would be the end of her, from what I heard about how gruelling it is for even healthy people.

But it's something to think about, for the future....

I said... I said I'd never do that again....

But... in case Roxis and Isolde-sensei ever did think it was worth it.... Does it have to be the alchemist, specifically, who goes?

What do you mean, Vayne...?

[thewishfire]

Well... if we ever did try it.... I'd want to be the one who went. Not them.

It would hurt us all, just the same, but... at least they could stay at home, and be safe. I'm stronger than they are... I wouldn't want to send them out into that sort of danger, on top of putting them through the pain....

...Well, the books don't talk about a Mana ever doing it. But it seems to be the distance that matters, really-- the spiritual quest was more of a side thing, something to aim for so that they'd keep their focus. I... guess it might work the same....

Would you like me to do more research?
