[@Flamelord] A nice, simple sheet of acceptable quality (although maybe it doesn't explore the possibilities of this universe as well as I'd like). I'm going to say now that, given that she began her magical training at 13, it makes sense for her to have burned out and become weaker. That's actually a little old to start training, so her soul was probably already developing impurities when her aging started to slow.
