[Magic, real magic existed in this place... Surely not this "science" she'd been told her own abilities were. After all, she'd been granted a spell herself from their employers, and nothing she knew of could explain how it worked, how it could reknit flesh and repair the body by force of will alone. She wore the wondering face of a child despite the razor sharp intellect beneath, excited and pleased to share her newest find with anyone who would listen to her.]
It was a gift from a being of another world- a world in which the heroes of song and history can be summoned into existence long after their deaths. Do you know the story of the king Gilgamesh?
