The grey doors of the library push open with a stomach-wrenching screech, casting brilliant light into the dreary confines. Slowly, a young woman tiptoes inside, pulling her violet shawl tighter. She is simply clad in a blue shirt and matching, knee-length skirt. "Hello? Is anyone here?" |

Aurora merely blinks at the flame shot and smiles a little at Kursten's redundancy. "No, I haven't yet. As a student, I'm barred from performing experiments without supervision." |

Kursten blinks. "Huh. Alrighty then. You didn't talk to any of your teachers about this?" Kursten grins, a realization hitting him. "Yeah, and they'd probably try to find some pretext to take it away from you if you did. Good thinking." Rubbing his chin, he shrugs. "Wanna try now?" |

Aurora returns his grin. "Exactly. And are you sure this would be a good place to try out something as powerful as this?" |

"Probably not." Kursten mutters, obviously wanting to test it. "But...you'll, want to find somewhere private to give it a whirl, private and open at the same time, no easy feat. You could try taking it out of the city, I guess...otherwise, you're likely to have some kind of police walk in on you while you're testing. Or you could take a gamble and try it here, where there's no one here but me...this shift at least." Kursten wonders if this is a good idea...but he's already in hiding, a bit more publicity won't really affect anything at this point if things do go belly up. |

"Hmm... technically, this would fall under being supervised when experimenting, and since I could be expelled otherwise..." Aurora stands up and points forward, her other hand clasping the crystal. "Um, please stand back. I'm only going to send the smallest charge through it I can, but with something this powerful, we can't be too careful." |

Nodding, Kursten stands back. "Believe me, you don't have to tell me twice. Still...this is fascinating. I've seen and activated all kinds of artifacts, but never a god-derived power source this large..." It might have been better if he'd done it, but he was close enough to stop or redirect the flow if he needed to. |

"Alright. Offene kanal." At Aurora's incantation, the amethyst gives a brighter glow for a breath. At the spot Aurora is focused on, space warps around a sphere from intense gravity. The teacups and pot are drawn into the gravitational flux a moment later. With an eep, Aurora ends the spell, less than a second after it began. "Sorry about that." The glassware drops to the floor and shatters. "...I'll clean that up. And pay you back." |

Kursten winces. Thank goodness there was no one else in the library, or they'd probably have people come to investigate the sound. Still, he was too transfixed by the effect to truly care. "That was incredible! Transferring energy through manipulation of gravity! And despite the tiny charge, the effect was considerable!" He was muttering to himself, even as he went and got a broom and dustpan. "You have something truly great in your hands. Be very careful with it...and I'm not talking about breaking teapots." |

Aurora nods, still amazed at the power displayed by the crystal. "Right... right." She stares at the broken dishes a few seconds later before shaking her head to snap herself out of it. "Oh, right. Cleaning. Right." |

Kursten laughs as he sweeps up the cracked porcelain. "Yeah, can't exactly leave a mess for the next people to come in. That'd be bad. Could've been a lot worse, though." Thinking a bit, he turns back to Aurora. "You going to head back to the academy soon? Or is this an off day?" |
