Even though Havarti did not get a direct answer on what it was, at least he got some sort of answer. Unique vital crystal.... that was a start, and he would take it. "Thank you for that insight. It means alot, truly! If you ever see the man, the woman, or the crystal in your travels do let me know. I am sure you probably have questions for me by this point." Seeing as how most people have questions about his visions he assumed Jacob may be the same. This man did not seem to laugh at his cryptic drawings though, which was nice. Havarti added a few logs to the fire at this point noticing it is going down. There are some more drawings of the crystal and a lake surrounded by fey and deer, along with random words relating to dreams, two words are written next to the drawing of the lake in bold letters "Fey Lake".

"The deer feels like it might be more related to you somehow... the only thing I've ever heard of that would qualify as a fey lake would be the auroil lake in Verto..." Jacob mused, handing back the papers.

Havarti takes the papers. "I do beleive that particular dream had some sort of symbolism going on. But there are a few places I can think of where fey gather on the occasion, although they are not such high numbers like Verto. That place is a strange one. he shrugs and gestures to the water. "Will you be attempting your water walk again today or will you be saving that for after more research?

"Its usually best to let the experience sit a while. Otherwise its a bit like banging your head against a wall, except the wall is the fabric of reality and the laws of nature." Jacob said, conjuring a small disc of force magics and bashing his hand against it to illustrate.

Havarti laughed at his demonstration. "Hah! I see, that is understandable! I can see you have.. maybe experienced that before." He gestures to Jacob's demonstration.

Jacob looked down at his hand pressed against the force construct, paused for a moment, then banished it with a more flippant wave of his hands.
"Some walls you can break through, others you need to figure out how to climb." he said, smiling warmly.

Havarti smiled back warmly, "That my friend is solid advice, I shall remember that, and I hope you do not mind if I perhaps reuse that in my later travels. Now I must ask out of curiosity, how are you to find a sapphire to study for your new spell? Havarti knew that Jacob was much more knowledgeable about spells and the like then he was. And Havarti wished to learn what he could from him. If anything he learned from his travels was to learn from others what you do not know.

"Three main ways people go about acquiring magic... paying a teacher, doing research into it themselves or purchasing a scroll which prompts and nudges at certain natural aptitudes. The last one is a bit like using a key to unlock a door." said Jacob.
"Doing research is more like picking a lock... except you need much weirder tools than two bits of metal. I know places where I can pick up what I need in the amounts that will be helpful."

Havarti's eyes light up and he smiles, "That is amazing! I never knew there were so many ways of learning! In my village you got taught by the village elders based upon some sort of magic detect spell. Each art had its master and you were taught at around the time you were able to walk and upwards... Unfortunately.. I...was unable to partake in that tradition for long. So I do not know as much of my fire magic as I would like.... Although I am glad in some way.. My brother used to tell me horror stories on what the water elder would make him do. Havarti laughs as he remembers his brothers old stories.

This time Jacbob's eyes lit up.
"You know fire magic? I have to see how the teaching of shifter elders differ from Verot mage houses. Mind showing me something?" he asked, pulling out a different journal than the previous.
