[ When Akua makes these references to different kinds of magic, he doesn't just nod along. He feels an itch to know about all of them. Link's mind is like sponge. He can't help but feel intensely curious about new ideas, new places, new things, and the potential they may carry. The Savant within his soul makes him even more eager, not only to learn, but to understand and master. That energy, tightly-wound but politely held back, permeates their connection. He's nothing if not an eager student. ]
...Yes. Yes, please. I'll be in your debt. When can I see you?
[ Her schedule is busy but not full. Open enough that she can accommodate Link, but not so open that she can drop what she does today. ]
I will be happy to give you as thorough an education as you can absorb. I've had the displeasure of instructing total laymen in the arts, and watched as they stumbled their way through forces they cannot even understand, and watch as they somehow make their will manifest regardless of their understanding, so I do not doubt my ability to help.
And if you are smarter than my last student, this may even be pleasant.
[ His enthusiasm is palpable. Him, learning magic! Link never would have dreamed of such a thing before coming to Kenos. He's never had that kind of power. ]
I will come find you after breakfast is served in the Tribune. Should I bring anything? Aside from my smarts and pleasantness. I might stumble, but I promise to try my hardest.
[ Link is the sort of Hero that Akua sees as earnest. He really does try to do everything he can, invests himself deeply, and draws from a well of resolve that is frankly admirable. He also will cut himself to the wick if left alone.
Mind, Akua isn't the sort to... guide heroes, but as they are allies, there are stranger things that have happened.
Besides, she may need him, and that's good enough a reason as any to help the kid along. ]
But do not worry about bringing anything. My home is well stocked. You will know it when you see it. Just head [ to a location that is somewhere in Springstar. Her home is the most verdant on the street, with high windows and plantlife practically... teeming, thanks to Set's influence. ]
