You walk into what used to be your father's laboratory. After retrieving some choice literature from the assortment of shelves, you take a moment to ponder what to aim for.
You stare at the bright fireplace in the back of the room. The fire itself is fueled from the deep forges within Silverhall, but staring at it gives you an idea. You find a book relating to basic Pyromancy and spend the next few days in studying it in your laboratory. Eventually, you start to have an idea of where to start with the creation of Pyromancy-based spells. Initially, while again staring at the ongoing fire, you think of a spell allowing for basic control over fire. Ultimately, this idea is discarded for the time being but it serrves as a spring into higher inspiration.
Flame Tongue. A simple spell to create a "tongue" of fire extending from your hand and licking a target. The basic effect can be achieved via your own "customizations" on the techniques for flaming hands. However, the difficulty is in the range. There are more advanced techniques that could be used in creating the spell, but those are well above your abilities.
A week filled with experimentation and accidental fires later, you finally finish. Flame Tongue allows you to extend a flaming tongue of roughly 3 inches from your hand and manipulate it to a limited extent for 5 seconds. From your experimental use of it, you believe its physical toll to be equal to that of 3 mana. You feel more prepared to take on further spells in the school of Pyromancy, as well! With this done, you consider spending some time with the more elder wizards in Silverhall, but it's extremely nontraditional for wizards to seek help outside the family after their training, and you doubt you could get anyone to help.
As you do further testing with your new spell, you hear a knock on the door. Opening it reveals your sister, Casset.
"CAZOT. Where the hell have you been? As the wizard of the family, your duty is not to stay inside your empty house all day. Your family, your mother, all need you to act responsible for once in your life. If you decide to do your job, we need you at the lower Family home tomorrow. There are things to be done besides magic if you care about your status at all."
You are the head of your family now, which means it's ultimately up to you what you do, not your sister or any of your family. She does have a point about your status and position, however.
