Re: kitchen
Cloud hummed. "The materia is Quake. That was a magical spar. Pretty low level stuff, for the most part. Even with the summons, which would be the castle and the serpent, and the being with the fire. Alexander, Leviathan, and Hades, in that order."
She looked at Quistis again. "Hmmm. Think of us as having two bowls full of liquid. One bowl is our physical capabilities. You know, bleed, break, each of those would take out so much liquid, and that's gone till you refill it, either with a potion of some type, a cure, or natural healing. The other bowl is similiar, only when you do magic, a measured amount of fluid goes away. You can replace that with time, or, like with your health, a potion, called an ether here, can refill it much faster than normal. What materia you have slotted also helps determine your levels of health and magic abilities."
