"Well. How do you feel, Sakura? Have you rested sufficiently to resume your training?" the brunette asked, smiling, as they relaxed in their main living room/lounge.

"Hai." She said nodding as she put Rin-chan to the side and gave her a gentle pet.

The brunette smiled. "Good. How about you try lighting up your wand, and turning the light off again?" she suggested.

It took a couple of tries but she managed to get it to light, and then turn off.

"Excellent work, Sakura! You did it much more easily this time. This is very promising", she said, beaming. "How about we teach you a new simple spell? A simple Opening charm to open things that can be opened without need for physical effort. Sounds fun?" she suggested. "Or would you rather begin to learn how to defend yourself, if the need arises? It's a bit more complex than opening things."

"I'd like to start with defending myself." She said.

"Fair enough", she said, nodding. "I actually think it's a great idea. It's a dangerous world we live in, and the sooner you learn to fight, the better. I guess I just like offering the option after my father basically raised me as a weapon whether I pleased or not", she pondered.
"Given that we are no longer in my world, where most of our fights are fought with magic... it's probably a good idea to teach you a more... general utility combat spell. We call it the Stunning charm. Hit someone with it, and it should knock them out for a bit. Interested?"

"Excellent. I'm going to show you how to wave your wand, and then you must speak the word: 'Stupefy', firmly. You move the wand, like this", she said, performing the gesture.
"Go ahead and practice on me. Don't worry, I'm very resilient to magic in general, I'll be fine", she requested.
3 in Agility to show her the proper wand movement for the spell.
My defense against the Atk VS Dur + Magical Defense if she performs it properly is 15.

She tries once, twice, three times... before finally managing to a weak verion of the spell that bounces off you harmlessly... barely even enough to stun a small animal for a split second.

"You did it! Great work, Sakura. It's weak now, but with proper practice and effort, you will be able to knock out most people with that spell. And it's otherwise harmless, too, so it's a great defensive weapon. So for now, keep practicing it to get more used to it, and improve your magical energy", she advised.

"Hai." She said casting it again... and again... and again... and yet again.

Eleanor smiled proudly. "Look at you. One success, and then repeated castings, no problem. Keep it up. And try to practice Lumos and Nox as well while you're at it. The more you're used to casting your spell, the more efficient you will be at it", she advised. "Plus, experience means more skill, and more skill comes with more power."
