To be blunt, I want those leftovers! And for that, we are going to use this!"'

The original was supposed to let a couple share their mana, but my version will substitute the partner for a sex machine, so when you orgasm and your body is flooded by the mana, the excess that is supposed to go to your partner will be absorbed by the fragment. Any questions?"'

'"Yes and no <<$pcs_nickname>>. Tapping on your mana reserves isn''t really difficult, but the surge ones? They will burn me like a cinder, that''s why I need the fragment. It somehow conserves some mana-battery properties, letting this little ritual channel the excess energy towards it for later use.

After this little window into the Dark side, I am going to teach you your next healing spell, Greater Cure Wounds. You will forgive me if I don''t demonstrate, as this spell, even with the same limitations that Cure Wounds has, is powerful enough to bring you back to peak health from little magical hazards like... full body third-grade burns caused by magical fireballs.

Another vital part of the all-times favorite healing arts.

As an additional advertence, this isn''t a get-out-of-the-hospital-free card.

'"Okay <<$pcs_nickname>>, I was tired of explaining without demonstartions, and this way I can demonstrate two spells. The first one is Energy Shield, a combat spell, and your last line of defense if everything else fails. Unfortunately, it has two flaws - first: It is ablative, which means that will lose efficiency as it absorbs damage, and - two: It is designed for use against low-impact attacks, like punches and the occasional melee weapon, but anything more potent will shred it. So don''t try to go against bullets."'

Trust me, if there was any way around it, I would have found it. But magic makes the reading easier and quicker, and it''s sooo worth it. The things you can do once you grasp what energies the universe holds are incredible. And I''ve only just scratched the surface."'
'"What do you mean by ''energies of the universe''? I thought you said that magic only exists in living things, like plants and animals."'

But," she waves her hand as if to shoo away a pesky fly, "you don''t have to concern yourself with that right now.

Well, there''s a limit to that tendency, a threshold beyond which either the magic cannot stay hidden anymore or at which the normal person cannot explain what they''re seeing with some non-magical phenomenon, we''re not sure which - in other words, humans have a breaking point, and when they are pushed beyond that, most of them realize how the world really is... and lose their minds."'

! '"It''s even bigger than that, <<$pcs_firstname>>. We know that this threshold exists. Every mage witnesses it sooner or later." She stops, momentarily lost in thought, but quickly recovers. "We have a theory that, if too many people are exposed to too much magic at once, it might break the illusion for everybody; you know, like a nuclear bomb goes off when you reach a critical mass."'
! '"Which would then drive everybody insane," you conclude.'
! '"Maybe not everybody," she corrects, "but many of them. And those that wouldn''t go insane, well, who knows what they''d do? Go on witch hunts? Try to kill all succubi and fae? Attempt to harness the magic of the universe? It would destroy the world as we know it, that''s for sure."'
