Not really... Nnot primarily, at least. I've been learning a little magic from my friend Marcille, who'se a really great and powerful mage. But I can't do any of it here, for some reason. I guess the labyrinth dungeon is blocking my mana or something?
[ Has nobody told this guy anything??? Welcome wagon Maruki strikes again... ]
Ah, no, I'm afraid it's not that simple.
When you first arrive here, any special abilities that you had in your reality are, for all intents and purposes, taken from you. Everyone starts on equal footing.
You can wish for your abilities back, but... well, that has its own set of risks, or so I've heard.
[ It's like praising a particularly dim student for grasping the basics... Sakamoto all over again... Kinda endearing, honestly. ]
However, if and when you do utilize the crystal, I would recommend being as clear as possible with your wishes. Having no abilities myself, I don't have any direct experience with this, but I've heard from many others that the abilities they've regained have been weakened or altogether different from what they were used to back in their realities.
Just one of the many ways this place can mess with you...
Oh, okay... So if I wanted to ask the crystal to change my name on the Oracle, I shouldn't just go wish for my name to be changed, I should go there and specifically wish for what I want it to be changed to?
[ Yeah, it turns out that the username "layout.today" is not intentional. Who'd-a thunk it? ]

Oh, I see. So that's one of the rules of this dungeon.
[ Now, THAT! That, he will make a point to remember. He may even write it down. ]
You can wish for them back from the crystal? is that right?
[ Another thing he had retained, somehow. ]

But wish based magic can be dangerous. And it might not be a bad thing to test it out on.
[ And besides, it's kind of embarrassing that he mis-typed his name one time and now he's stuck with it. ]
