Guys, I know I'm probably not the best person to be giving advice about looking before you leap, but something about this carnival really seems off. Like horror-movie-cliche level of off. 

Just be careful, okay? I have a hunch and a wizard should never ignore her hunches.

October is a little late in the year for one of these. Are you sure that's not what's bothering you?

[inlifesname]

Pretty sure. I've had feelings like this before- it's possible I'm developing oracular leanings.

[freeslider]

Like seeing the future, you mean?

[inlifesname]

Sort of- it's not as simple as it sounds. Sometimes I get little flashes in dreams or really strong feelings. That's why I say "may be developing." It's... complicated and tricky.

[freeslider]

Hm. Is it something you can practice at like other skills?

[inlifesname]

Yep- and I've been working on it. [Wade can't see it, but she can probably hear the frown in her voice] It's harder here, though, without any Senior wizards- or my kind of Senior wizards, anyway.

[freeslider]

Your kind? What's the difference?

[inlifesname]

The way you go about things. Even where I'm from, there's a big difference between how Wizards from one planet practice the Art and how Wizards from another planet do it. And it all works according to the same principles there. Here you have to figure out if you are even talking about the same thing before you can get to work on it.

That seems confusing. So you don't always know if something is even magic?

[inlifesname]

Yes and no. It's more like I don't know what everyone else considers magic. I'll know if something is Wizardry as I know it. But if it isn't and someone else who calls themselves a wizard is working with it- yeah, things get really confusing.

Kind of a to-may-to to-mah-to situation?
