El: look, its simple once you get used to it. (molten gold swirls aroud Elliot) just focused on the spell, like really focuse on it, then... (the molten gold shifts and transforms into a solid gold hammer into Elliot's hand)
El: ah, so its a distraction. don't focus on them, just focus on your spell. trust me, I had the same problems. (a golden rubber duck materializes in his hand) everythingi tried to make turned into something stupid, because I let my mind wander.
the 1st guardian (i cant think of a name yet): "listen kid there are a lot of different things that effect a spells outcome like a lack of focus. Why are your spells not working?"
