Chapter 277 - [277] Letters That Bind, Magic Awakened

Ever since delving into mind magic, Vizette had discovered richer ways to revisit and build on his knowledge. No longer limited to notes, he could plunge straight into his memories, reviewing the past to unlock fresh insights.

The Pensieve made this even more powerful. By extracting relevant memories and viewing them from a detached, third-person angle, she could dissect her own thought processes, refining ideas and even debating them with his past self. For Vizette, those internal arguments held a peculiar thrill.

His growing mastery of mind magic sparked a bold plan: share his memories directly with Luna to teach ancient magic. The Pensieve was essential for this.

In the Pensieve chamber, Vizette and Luna stood on opposite sides of the basin, facing each other.

"Luna, I'll need a memory from you to forge an emotional link," Vizette explained. His studies of the Ancient Magic: Bombarda and Ancient Magic: Bombarda Maxima had revealed how emotions could resonate through magic. A shared memory's feelings could create that harmony, forming a secure channel free from personal biases.

If it failed, they'd fall back on tried-and-true methods.

"A memory? A bond?" Luna tilted her head, eyes gleaming with intrigue. "One of ours?"

Vizette nodded, struck yet again by Luna's sharp intuition. "It can't be too intimate or too distant—like parallel lines on the same page, never crossing but always connected."

The metaphor clicked for Luna, who nodded eagerly.

"There's one memory that fits perfectly," Vizette said.

"The letter you sent me last year!" Luna beamed. "Your first one to me!"

"And your reply," Vizette added with a smile.

Thor, their letter-carrying owl, embodied those parallel paths: a charcoal line on white paper, or a swift arc through the vibrant wizarding world.

Luna's face softened, eyes closing as her lashes fluttered. "Let's begin."

"Right." Vizette raised his wand to Luna's temple. "Transfer Memory!"

The scene unfolded before them: Luna's cozy living room, her quill scratching across parchment with a gentle smile, Thor wheeling overhead.

How far away is this letter? As distant as the Lovegood home from Hogwarts.

Vizette drew out the shimmering silver strand, infusing his fingers with ancient magic. "Ancient Magic: Accio."

Then he extracted his own memory: from Thor pecking his heart to delivering the reply.

How far? From Hogwarts to the Lovegoods and back.

Clutching the two threads, Vizette channeled ancient magic from his core, weaving them together.

Boom!

Silver-blue light engulfed them. Vizette felt himself dissolving into a letter, adrift like a paper glider over the Ministry. Thor—or a creature much like her—swooped in, wings enfolding it protectively.

As the glow faded, both opened their eyes. A swirling vortex pattern lingered on Vizette's palm, linking the threads.

Luna's voice was steady. "It worked!"

"Smoother than I hoped," Vizette agreed.

She pulled a vial from her pocket, swirling the silver contents. "The Forbidden Forest teems with creatures—from harmless deer to deadly Acromantulas. To navigate it safely, you need agility-enhancing magic."

Luna's eyes lit up. "The one from summer—the white light like a unicorn!"

"Exactly." Vizette uncorked the vial and poured the memory into the Pensieve.

They dove in together. After a whirl of vertigo, they stood in the familiar clearing, the ancient castle looming in the distance. An hourglass ticked above its carriage-like form, sand drifting lazily.

"This is incredible," Luna murmured, kneeling to brush the grass. "Like returning home."

"It'll make the lesson vivid," Vizette said, watching Luna bounce lightly before refocusing.

"Ready, Professor Vizette?"

"Recall that magic circuit you helped refine. Visualize it."

"The odd pattern?" Luna concentrated, brow furrowing, then relaxed. "It's clear now."

The established link let Vizette sense it forming in Luna's mind.

"Now the incantation: Ansuz."

"Ansuz!"

"Well done," Vizette praised. "Grip your wand. Guide the ancient magic with the spell—command it to flow."
