Alcanus wipes away the magic circle. "Equinox, what did I tell you about using magic without permission?"

The teacher walked up to Vincent and held open his hand for a tiny, tiny flame to appear. "Pyromancy is one of the seven elemental schools of magic where one adheres to the elements that create the earth as we know it. Pyromancy is a particular one that in combination with earth can create new islands at sea.

If one wishes to learn this school they may do two things. They make a convent with an fire elemental and get the skill they need right of the bat at the price of being bound to a monster.

Or they train for years to concentrate their magic and compress it so tightly that it emits heat and bursts aflame. Learning magic this way has made most mages many times stronger than those who make a convent. One can make fire with magic in this way, but the mage must be sure not to let the fire reach his actual skin, for the flame can recede into the body and burn out your blood vessels which guide magic throughout your body."

The tiny fire danced in Alcanus hand and fizzled out of its own accord.
