Magic

  When you appear at the door, Talmaran motions for you to come in.  He is writing a chart when you enter.  As you approach, he holds the parchment up, and tacks it to the wall.  You ask him about the magic, and he simply points to the chart.  You go up to it and see runes.  They read:

There are two types of Magic:  Light Magic, and Dark Magic.  Neither are necessarily evil, it depends on the user.  Listed below is a chart of the different Magic talents you may acquire during your stay here at Deepwood Settlement. 

You look below the feathery writing to the chart, and this is what you see.

This is a chart of the Magic Abilities.  Green is Neutral Magic, Blue is Light Magic, and Black is Dark Magic.  Talmaran Oakleaf is a Dark Magic user. 

You become interested in magic when you see a fire elf juggling fireballs in the marketplace.  You go to Talmaran for information.

Note:
  When Talmaran gives you a Magic Ability, he will explain its properties to you.  Be patient.  It takes skill and time to aquire a Magic, and it is not always successful.  Thank You.
