Archmage
At only eighteen?!

A child prodigy
He's very skilled at magic

He's trying to steal Tane's job!

...I don't think he's doing that
He is! Head for the hills! Waa!
*slap*
...Just... shush you...

Akkarin walked into the arena, even with the sun high in the sky, it looked like dusk in here, the result of Akkarin's barrier. For the last few month's he'd been training his captains one at a time, now it was time for a captain who might prove slightly more difficult to control, so Akkarin had reinforced the arena with a barrier to stop any residual magic from escaping. He had donned his official archmage robe and stood in the center of the grand building, waiting, waiting, and conjuring up a wind to make his robe look cool, and more waiting.
"Well, he's going to regret this." Akkarin said at last.

'He's like fire, and ice, and rage.
He's like the night and the storm and the heart of the sun.
He's ancient and forever.
He burns at the centre of time and he can see the turn of the universe.'

Tomaius was attacking, attacking with all his might, but to no avail. He was using too much power already, let alone waiting for the main battle. He tried almost everything he could muster, trying to find the weak points, but he could not, it was just not possible. Finally, he decided to give in. It was clear that he could not break the barrier. Akkarin had invited him to the arena in the barracks, but had set up a barrier that he could not penetrate before he even arrived. What kind of a joke was this?
"Hello?" he called out over the large arena walls. "Akkarin, sir? I can't get in!"

Akkarin let out a sigh, maybe some academic training was needed too.
"Just walk through captain, its a barrier for magic only! Keep your spirit energy low and you'll pass right through." He called back, chuckling ever so slightly.

Tomaius surpressed his energy and walked through the barrier with no problems at all.
"Oh," he let out, surprised. He did not have much knowledge on the subject of barriers, but he supposed he did not really need to know. He walked through the doors until he reached the main arena, Akkarin waiting for him at the centre. He lept over the wall and landed on the sandy floor, proceeding towards Akkarin.
"Sorry about that," he said, feeling slightly foolish. "You called me, sir?"

"Yes I did, and don't worry, this is all part of why you're here." Akkarin replied, letting the wind die down now and approaching the captain. "I'm sure you've heard from your comrades that I have taken it upon myself to train the captain's, a lot of them are lacking in knowledge of magic and the supernatural, and a few have the potential to become stronger, you fit into both of these categories, and I'm going to fix that. You were wise to attack the barrier first, while most are usually designed to repel or contain, they can be made with certain effects that trigger when touched. However, the first thing we're going to cover today is your combat in this form." Akkarin raised his arm and they were surrounded by balls of light. "Ok, the first thing you'll learn, is how to split one of your arrows after having fired it. Bear in mind captain that this is not sparring, and I will not be taking this training lightly or easily, nor should you."

Seems like this was going to be more than he had bargained for. Sure he had heard from a few other captains that they had been called to see Akkarin, but none of them had spoken of what had happened here.
"Split my arrows?" he wondered. "But why not just fire two arrows quickly?"
He activated his Quincy bow and fired two shots towards the barrier one after another. They both vanished on impact, not doing anything, although he knew they would not.
"Like that, that would be easier no?" he said, looking back towards Akkarin. He did not look impressed.

The two arrows hit the barrier, causing ripples of energy along it, and then turned back to Tomaius.
"The point, captain, is not to make things easy. Yes, your ability to gather and focus spirit energy is impressive, but theres more to it than that." Akkarin clicked his fingers and an arrow of spirit energy formed above his hand, seeing the look on Tomaius' face, he chuckled. "I've seen you enough to know how this is done, but don't worry, I can't create them as fast as you." Akkarin concentrated for a moment and then the arrow shot forward, it started curving around the arena. "Now this is what i've seen you do, you focus your energy around the particles and move them, what you're going to be learning is how to manipulate and control them as well as you can bring them together and focus them. This will train your concentration, energy, and ability to focus on multiple things at once." Akkarin glanced at the arrow again, and suddenly it split into hundreds of multiple arrows, passing through each one of the globes of light.

"By the end of the week you'll be able to do that without thinking, for now, I want you to focus on splitting it in two."
