“Hypnotism is a discipline of personal magic centered on the control and manipulation of others. The wizard unleashes their own Djed through their personal charisma and force of will; they use any means of expression such as eyes, voice, presence and mannerism, in order to induce effects in the minds of those around them.”
A sigh drifted upon her lips as she ran a hand over the tough, horny textured pages. It wasn’t an old book, in fact, if she had to guess, it had been copied before, however, the slightly yellowing pages indicated that it had been copied some time ago, it just wasn’t an ancient copy yet. She lifted her gaze for a moment to peer around the library, it was virtually empty, which was what she did enjoy about the library. Only people interested in certain topics, came to the library to do any research, which was why she was there. She was there to conduct her own research, research into hypnotism, the book that she was currently holding was called, ’Personal Magic of Hypnotism.’ She had recently performed hypnotism upon a human being and she had to admit, she enjoyed the power she had over the man, even though she had only performed the basics of hypnotism. It was a heady thing, power and she could see why it one would continuing exercising such a thing. To know that one could influence some of what went through some people’s minds. Although, she also knew that it wasn’t just about placing subliminal thoughts into a person’s mind, she also knew that it also worked because she had paid attention to his appearance.
Lifting her gaze from the book, she looked out the window that she was seated next to. It was generally a spot that she sat in whenever she was in the library, she was mostly only here when ever she had to do copying for her job. Normally, she would check out books whenever she wanted to read them, however, books on magic were not allowed to be checked out. With a soft sigh, she gently brushed back her white hair, her violet hues closing as she leaned back into her chair, still clutching the book. She wasn’t exactly finished with reading it just yet, there was still so much more that she wanted to learn, however it was all good in theory until it was put into practice and practice makes perfect. Silently, she hoped that her pups that she had left behind in her room, was not causing too much trouble while she was not there. Drawing in another breath, doing this to calm her thoughts, she had come here for a specific reason, she shouldn’t really allow these thoughts to distract her from the information that she had deliberately sought out. Indeed, the woman wanted to learn more about the skill of hypnotism. A gift that she couldn’t remember as to whether she had it in her previous life, perhaps reading about it just might give her the memory jog that she needed.
