It's...still kinda weird. I didn't think being a ninja would involve black magic, but it's probably the most useful thing I've learned from them. I just wish I'd paid more attention when the black mage I knew back home was trying to teach us stuff.

But I'll lay off, promise. Come on in, water's fine!
