"I've tried to read some books on the other two schools, yes," Kevaraan replied. "Mostly general purpose tomes; I'm sure they aren't the official texts apprentices use. As you know, I'm very interested in the Aether, so I would love to see what the other two schools offer."

His long ears both switched, shaking like leaves, and his hands seemed to shiver. After a few long seconds, he brought a clammy hand to his forehead and laid it there. He bade the wild gaze in his eyes, almost fearful, to disappear as he hid behind the mug--slowly snapping out of whatever reverie.
