I'm glad to see we're on the same page on that matter as well. I have no idea how they expect us to accomplish their goals under these horrible circumstances!
Exactly. I understand that they want us to be self-sufficient without our magic, that we should be able to manage and grow on our own, but there will be very few times I am without my magic back home. If my personal growth is dependent on a lack of magic, then surely it would revert the moment I receive my magic back.
And besides, the circumstances that killed me would not be solved if I do not have magic! If anything, I should have my magic back to full strength so that when I graduate this place, I am not instantly thrown to the wolves.
While I appreciate the offer, wouldn't that make it less likely for your warden to give you your magic back? No, we both should be in life-threatening danger but individually, in different opportunities. That way our wardens would see that magic is useful for defending ourselves and solving whatever problems come our way.

Though I would prefer not to die, of course. I do not trust the Admiral in the slightest. Bringing people back from the dead is never as easy as he makes it seem.
On the contrary, I think it is showing the wardens just how important our magic is to us. After all, there are very few things I would do a fool-hearty action to obtain. Magic is one of them.
Alas, I never really had any need to know medicinal arts. When I fought in the peninsula, I was mostly on the offensive line, nothing to support the soldiers directly.
That will not stop me, however. I can research that sort of magic and then attempt to craft a spell myself.

Do you know any spells to erase or burn a mark off someone's skin?

Then that is where I shall focus my studies next.
