Azeraj decides to work on something simple today, something basic, yet something she does not yet have honed to absolute perfection. She decides to practice Shoot Fire.

::Derrth.::

The air blurs, and the Shadow Dragon appears.

::I wish you to create a moving illusion for me that I can practice on.::
~:Very well, My Lady.:~

The Shadow Dragon swoops out of the cave, to hover high over the valley below. Suddenly, an image appears of a blazing white wolf, with eyes like chips of silver ice. Azeraj flings a ball of fire at it, which it easily dodges. She does so again, and again, each time getting closer to her target but never once hitting it. Then, she flings several at the illusion at once, one straight at it, one to either side, and on directly above it. One of the flaming balls scorches the "fur" on the head of the illusion, but it dodges the rest. Patience, she tells herself. Focusing, she shoots off another ball of fire...

And the illusion bursts into flame. Good. She sends off a burst of water to put it out, then banishes it all. Continuing to practice at additional targets, some existent, some not so, she finally hones it to perfection.
