“Which is the way of things with magic overall… without the proper skill level, it has a greater chance to backfire…” Another thing that’s true enough of mages no matter the world, they always need some level of training to hone their skills.

Kain has definitely heard that before, many times, whether back home or his friends in the war. They mean well, he knows that. He has to keep that in mind, even if sometimes he has enough with being nagged. Or what he thinks of as such. “Believe me, I’ll do my best to spare you that level of concern. I promise. I don’t want to repeat the past, after all, to go through things I’ve experienced before…” Stopping something early on, going to someone who can help, is for the best. He hopes he’ll remember that if the time comes.
