Fifth Post [video]

[Sabriel is so relieved that her magic has returned that she's conjured up several twinkling, multicolored lights just to prove that she can, and there's happiness in her expression, but it's mingled with a deep anxiety and something almost like fear.]

I think it's perfectly clear now why we were brought here, and what we were meant to face, although how is still not entirely clear how we're expected to stop- what we're here to stop. [She really needs a euphemism for Malicant.]

If anyone here is interested in learning magic, I'm willing to teach them- even if you couldn't use magic where you come from or if it simply doesn't exist, you should still be able to learn Charter Magic- it can be used to protect others, as well as for healing, self defense, and many other uses, although if you seek to abuse it, you will not enjoy the consequences. [Sabriel's voice carries both the solemnity of someone who can back up their words, and the hesitation of someone who would prefer not to.]

If you're already trained in some form of magic, I'd like to speak with you as well- I want to see how well our different abilities can link together.

And there's one last thing I need to say. [Sabriel straightens up, her tone becoming almost painfully formal.]

At my latest meeting with the Alderwood Commander I learned that my father has- has died. [All the formality does a poor job of hiding her grief, though she forces her way through it.] So the title of Abhorsen passes to me. My duty is to protect people from dangerous magic, whether in the form of necromancers, dangerous spirits, or the Dead, as well as laying the dead to rest. [Sabriel steadies herself before adding one more thing.]

I know this isn't the Old Kingdom, but I still intend to fulfill my duties here to the best of my abilities.

[Locked to her students; Basic encryption]

I want all of us to meet together- I know magic isn't as strong as it should be, but with everthing that's happened, and what we've learned about our enemy- I want to teach all of you as much as you're able to learn.

[EDIT: While Sabriel will happily try to teach everyone, only those without pre-existing superhuman/magical abilities will be able to actually learn Charter Magic!]
