fourth entry ⊗ magical inquiries

Sender: Eustace

Subject: Sealing and Teleportation Magic

I have two inquiries to those who are familiar with magic.

RE: SEALING MAGIC
I'd like to know if anyone knows a way to cast some kind of sealing or restraining magic on an accessory or item that could be used to suppress one's own magic or curse. If need a more specific situation, an emergency case where one's powers are running out of control and needs to be contained. The ideal goal would be that it could affect nightmare energy, but that might be more difficult without further knowledge.

[He is definitely asking for specific reasons, but good thing there have been several occasions where things went wildly out of control last month that it won't seem too random.]

RE: TELEPORTATION MAGIC
Similarly, I wish to create some kind of portal that would allow me to easily traverse between my home and other locations that I currently own with potential to add on in the future. [Because it's about time he just accepts he owns these dogs and getting to the Corgi Tree and the Flowers home more instantaneously would be ideal. Though already future proofing? What could he be considering...] Ideally it would be a door with a function to change the location.

This might be a complicated request, if it's even possible, but even just information on how it might work will be appreciated.

[He'll get his portal door one way or another—]

Thank you.

You don't understand.

My abilities are difficult to control without extra assistance. I nearly burned myself alive because I failed to control my own power properly.

All of the nightmares and grief make it harder to focus.

[...............................Ah. Well that certainly puts it in a different perspective and he contemplates on this a little more.]

What's the extra assistance?

I needed Shionne there by my side to keep my powers in check.

We are stronger together but since I'm on my own now there's nothing that can stop my abilities from going out of control.

...

I've killed so many people because I couldn't manage my own artes. I can't go on pretending it's not a problem.

[Even more concerning. Jeez what is with these people and needing power balancers...!]

If Shionne had not been here, what would you have done?

There's a chance I'll lose control over myself and leave behind a path of destruction.

It's happened before in the past. I can't be too sure it won't happen again.

An ability that can go unchecked like that might do more harm than good in the long run.

And you never had any kind of limiter prior? Even in your own world?

The Renas Alma.

That would have been able to help.

It's a core that's supposedly given to the winner of the Crown Contest.

[ he knows the Crown Contest was one big lie anyway. What he knows about everything might be wrong.]

I take it you never won.

I was crowned sovereign without ever winning.

That's the stranger part.

[ he didn't even have to win. ]

[...

...

So does that mean he still lost— okay no that is a bit weird... Will go back to that later.]

The mask didn't appear with you in this world?

No, there's still things I have to do back at home.

Until I know the real truth to everything it remains a mystery even to me. I thought I could use this time to get stronger but all I'm doing is running myself into circles.

Do you still have business at home?

Fortunately, no. I was brought in after my last mission and currently on an extended vacation. However that isn't to say everything is all clear as there are still some loose ends that need to be dealt with.

As for you, you should consider using the Wishing Well to get the mask. Given your current situation, it may be the easiest solution until you can settle your powers on your own. Emotional loss is not something to underestimate.

I see.

I'm not running away if that's what you think. I already suffered many losses before this. That's why I fought so hard.

Before all this started I didn't even have my name, but I have to keep going no matter how difficult it may seem.

Unless we stand to protect what we hold dear we're only going to suffer more losses.

That's a noble conviction to hold. Should you ever lose sight of yourself, remember it. It'll help ground you.

Until then, I recommend going to the Mikotoba clinic and inquire about Glowing Dawn flowers. Should your grief create nightmare energy, they might help keep it from growing out of control.

The Mikotoba clinic...isn't that where Doctor Mathis was working before?

I know that place.

I'll ask next time I visit, thank you. My friend used to stay there so I won't have trouble finding it.

I believe that is the case. Aside from that, you should probably consider some form of counseling...though I don't know if any professionals exist.

It might not be that easy to find help for this, but I'll try, thanks.

I have some things that I need to look into. There might be some old research that Doctor Mathis left behind that's useful.

There's no harm in taking every precaution available.

But I'll let you know if I've learned something. There seem to be multiple individuals capable of creating some kind of limiter, it'll just be a matter of time to develop.

Thanks, I'll let you know if I come across anything useful too.

Don't push yourself too hard.

I should be saying that to you. Take it easy.

I'll manage somehow without Shionne. She would always heal my wounds whenever I got hurt.

Do you know about anything that could generate healing properties while we're at it?

I don't know about healing "properties" in a passive sense, but I did manage to learn how to use my dreamotion for healing magic, something I wasn't capable before.

I never realized that dreamotion could be used that way.

If I'm being honest I'm not sure if I can make it through this or not but I have to try. Shionne's just that important to me. I promised to marry her someday so now it's just me and I suddenly find myself lost.

Other methods of healing might help in the mean time.

[...

Reading those words, Eustace can't help but stop and think about what he would do if Tifa suddenly left. He's always told himself that he's "prepared" and "accepted" that inevitably, but what would he really do should the time comes?

...]

You're both from the same world, correct? That means that only this version of yourself is without her as you're still together over there. The moment you "wake up" from this world you'll find her right there with you.

Your grief is understandable, but you could try and remember that you will see her again. She's not dead nor will you be separated by being from different worlds.

[...........That last bit maaay have come out unintentionally and he might be feeling just a little bit bitter. It's like, yeah he gets it. At the same time, though...]

There are ways to heal yourself, such as potions, so you can also use those.

I'll have to start looking after myself more. I'm sure that's what she would have wanted from me.

Shionne...

We're from the same world but it's not that simple. Even within our own world I'm from a different time. What if I just forget everyone all over again?

I don't want to forget the promise I made. There's still so much that I have to do still. We have to keep fighting.
