'Now, where to begin...' he murmurs, before putting on a set of spectacles. 'Ah, yes.'

As he begins, his voice changes: as if he's reading a fairy-tale to young children before sending them off to sleep, which to him it might seem like he is.

'Long ago, in a time where words still held real power and Magic existed, there was a girl who made a wish.

She didn't mean anything by it- it was a small, mean wish; a bad wish. But you must remember, words had power in those days. Especially wishes. The little girl didn't know what she'd done: but the wish knew, and it wanted to be fulfilled. It waited, and waited, and waited, until the day where it could finally become real. The little girl grew up, and became a mage; one of the most powerful in those days. And she found and fell in love with a boy, who loved her back just as dearly.

And then, one day, she remembered her wish. And that was a mistake, because the wish wanted to be remembered. It filled her thoughts, her dreams, her every waking moment, until she was consumed by the wish, and the innocent girl who loved another was no more. And the wish grew up, and became very monstrous: because, if you remember, it was a bad wish.

The wish then rampaged throughout the world to fulfill itself, having no other option: its entire purpose was to be real, and so it killed, and killed, and killed, until it was deep in an ocean of innocent blood. And the world fought back, with everything they had. Everyone attacked the wish, hoping to destroy it. All except one, that is.

The boy, now grown to a man, could not fight the wish: it was the last memory of the girl he loved, and he could not bring himself to destroy it, though he had the power. So many begged him, but he wouldn't, until he finally stood face-to-face with the wish that had done so much harm. And he saw that his love was gone, and he used his power, the power called "Hollow", in a mighty spell, to destroy the wish.'

Azarias sits back.

'And now I think I have time for a few questions before we sleep.'
