After waiting long enough, Atumi expands his mind and reaches out with all his senses. Raydiehl is gone. Now left with three students, seeing as Zrego is with Erashun, the supple male eyes each of them. Jasal he knows fairly well, physically impressive but mentally still very cub-like. Akar, mute but with such contrast between pelt and iris that he was promising. And Phoemrut, the battle-scarred father who had survived Lavana's dangers without his sight. The oddity of his students amuses him slightly, and the black takes a deep breath after a moment. At least they could all hear him.

"With a normal group, I would be feeding you Lavanian facts. But the three of you..." Atumi laughs quietly, a mirthless remark on their uniqueness as a 'class'. "One of you has lost a sense, another cannot communicate by sound and must rely on body language, and the third depends on senses to evade those who would kill without thought. I think you all could find some use of sensory techniques." A throaty noise suffices as a second laugh as the black drops down from his perch, landing effortlessly and seating himself in front of his ebony monolith. "First things first. Telepathy. Exceedingly easy to master, once you have an example to follow. And necessary for Akar to talk to us." Vivid teal eyes turn to regard his fellow black before sweeping the trio, one furred brow arcing slightly. "Phoemrut, if you are already capable of telepathy, you can mostly ignore what I'm about to say and do."

"Telepathy, telepathing, mindvoice, mindspeech, and mental link - those words are the vocabulary of this art. And I assure you... it is an art. There will be times when you cannot manage it to save your life, and for no apparent reason. There will also be times when you will feel able to reach across the worlds with your mind alone. Telepathy is a fairly good beginner's tool to begin training and honing your mind to act beyond your skull. The strongest Korat alive is nothing if he cannot use his mind. You are my students because, through breed or build, you strike a balance between speed and strength. You must strike an equal balance between mind and body."

"Telepathy is not easy to learn without a given example. Open your minds and relax your bodies. Still any thoughts you may have floating about." Atumi grows silent, and effortlessly reaches out to Jasal. She can feel a dark but unhostile presence touch and link with her own mind. Hello mri'dyn. Reply if you are able. He waits long enough for a reply (if there is one), then moves on to Phoemrut. Hello, mri'fa. Reply if you are able. Waiting again, Atumi's mind then establishes a gentle connection with Akar. Hello, Akar. Speak to me. And this connection he leaves open, and he won't close it until he receives a reply from the mute Korat.
