[x] Oh, sorry, I wasn't aware that anyone else used mana.
-[x] Answer any other questions, but don't volunteer other information. Do volunteer that you use mana to make babies, who will always be smaller than you.
[X] Aura Sliver - You can spend aura to reinforce the Aura of other slivers at a 1-1 ratio, and can awaken the Aura of other slivers 20% cheaper, and may do so at range. You'll still need to build up your Aura a lot first, and will still need to learn how to awaken auras, though that knowledge will come much easier to you.
"Oh, sorry, I wasn't aware that anyone else used mana. I mainly use it for making my babies." You reply to Ozpin, slightly unnerved to be found out like that.
He nods, a contemplative expression on his face. "Understandable. Besides ourselves, I know of only one other who does." He pauses for a moment. "You use it to reproduce, you say?" He asks curiously.
You nod. "Yes. My babies will always be smaller than me, though."
He gets a curious expression on his face. "A hive species, then? Interesting. Well, I'm afraid I'm rather attached to Beacons mana - you can bond it, but don't draw on it without asking me. There are plenty of other wells around that are of no use to me, you are free to use them as you wish."
You bow as courteously as you know how to. "That sounds most reasonable, thank you."
"Of course. Now if you will excuse me, I have business at the school I simply must get back to." He nods and turns away.
You spend the rest of the month finishing the mana bond to beacon, and contemplating your newly discovered semblance. You can't actually use it just yet - you can feel it reaching out for a fellow sliver when you try, and falling short - but you will be able to soon enough.
Gains:
Mana Bond, Beacon School, (W/U) (W/U)
Semblance - Aura Sliver
What do you do this next month? Six actions, stat gains for CK2 stats above 25 will be halved.
