Kira positioned herself and got out a soul gem. She held it in her hand and down looked at it.

"I can´t cast magic without this. But using the essence of my spirit means not doing it the normal way, wich means without any soul gems to help. But i can´t cast magic without this...

Hmm...what do i do?"

She sat down and looked over to the targets.

"Use the essence of my spirit to cast magic...

What IS the essence of my spirit?

Is it my mind?

Is it my feelings?

Is it my soul?

Is it my heart?

Is it my personality?

Is it my memory?

Is it my will?

Is it my resolve?

What is it?" She let out a loud sigh "How do i cast magic with the essence of my spirit?"

Kira sat there for a while, thinking, trying to figure it out and solve the ridle, until she suddenly realized something.

Whatever it was, it was inside her. Normal mages used their mind and will to bend the invisible magical energies around them. Kira had to use something else, something within her very self. Not her mind. Minds have limits. But something that has none at all.

She looked at the soul gem again that was still in her hand. Why did this thing enable her to cast spells? It was not the magical stone itself. Even if it was magical, it had no energies inside it. It was the part of the soul that was inside the gem that gave magical power. Wich meant that if those souls had magical power inside them, then her soul did too, wich meant that every soul had magical power, was magical power itself.

Kira understood now, partially. It was a whole new world view.

She stood up and focused on the targets. She didn´t concentrate, didn´t think. She only captured the targets with in her view and started gathering magical energy and bundle it up in her left hand.

Not with her mind, but with her heart. And not from the air around her but from within herself. She felt realy light, like a feather. Gusts of wind started to appear around her. She was filled up with magical energy.

And then she felt fire.

The crystal on the left went up in a fireball. Then the one on the right did too. The one in the middle was destroyed by an incineration spell.

"Heh" Kira then realized what she just did. "What? I...

...

WOOHOOOOOOO!!" she cheered and jumped up into the air "Did you see that?! Did you see that?!"

She shouted out to the voice.

"I don´t need this thing anymore!" she threw away the soul gem.
