[Shame you can't see his utter reluctance to reaching out to others en masse like this. Oh well. Curiosity killed the Hyuuga's pride.]

I know some of us have been finding books lately. While most range from vaguely intriguing to useless, I also know I haven't been the only one to come across a spell book. In fact, twice I've held the instructions to a silencing spell in my hands. As has been previously reported...

[Neji sighs. _{ty Yuri sama for having also had a silencing spell book, or else he'd have been shit outta luck}]

The books are taken away at night. If you happen to find one of interest and if you have the presence of mind to take notes of its details, however, those will remain with you. I can't say for how long. My offer is this: I've written and double-checked what I can of the silencing spell to ensure its accuracy. If there is anyone who has found instructions of other spells, I'll trade a copy of what I have for a reliable copy of those.

[--nah.] Or if there is simply another shinki interested in the silence spell, ask me for it. Should anyone else offer the same... feel free to post below.

No, I don't. It may be quite a long list; I've heard we can use "song spells."

There's one known as Bind that can prevent a target shinki from moving, as well. Kazuma is an expert in shinki magic, although he's sometimes less than forthcoming.

[Please excuse him a minute while he actually goes to check if, somewhere in the notes he's taken, there is any sort of mention of singing.]

I haven't heard of the song spells. What do they do?

[Watch him brace himself for 'it may be quite a long list'.]

[reformedsinner]

It sounds as though they're extremely versatile, although I haven't personally seen them used.

[Translation: as far as he knows they do anything.]

Unfortunately, I have a bad singing voice.

[Sometimes Hakkai is really useful. Sometimes.]

I can't imagine they'd be practical for use in battles.
How did you learn about them?

[reformedsinner]

Kazuma taught classes in shinki magic at my first goddess's temple for a brief time before she disappeared. I had the chance to attend a few.

[tuishou]

Perhaps I'll be able to learn from him some day.
We're in the dark about enough things as it is, our own powers shouldn't be one of the many secrets kept from us.

[reformedsinner]

I couldn't agree more.

It's worth contacting him if you'd like to learn. He and I spoke about his continuing to teach at Bishamon's temple, but I'm not sure if he did or not.
