Yeah XIV Bards are super fun since they sing/play music during combat, and the music itself is the incantation. I love the lore behind them too aaaa

Astrologian magic would be tricky for her to manage here since she hasn't connected with the constellations or whatever. The power is derived from the stars and. Yeah. +3+ I'll have to do more research on how that would work outside of Eorzea!

Red Magic doesn't rely on external factors like that though, so it's fair game.

Yeah! I think it would make sense that F.A.T.E.S. wouldn't, but it also would make sense if it did...

As for Era, given that the Echo translates the soul and I know for a fact that the Dragonborn has a soul she would understand it but definitely not be able to speak it. She'd want to learn more about it for sure though - like the theory and info behind it, because the lore sounds super fascinating!

Brb still pouting over how Bards in Skyrim don't actually do shit >.>

Oof, yeah, that *would* make the practical side a little tricky even just to demonstrate, wouldn't it. He'd prob be okay just learning theory though, tbh - he's done that a *lot* with the other mages/wizards/warlocks/etc he's met so far.

But yay for Red Magic!! His lowkey goal is to learn things he could apply back home, in particular, so that works especially well. He might also pick her brain re: killing god-level enemies, if this happens after his... uh... *discussion* with Rose on the event log.

Yeah, I think F.A.T.E.S. would be able to provide... a rough translation, at best? like not entirely comparable synonyms, wonky but understandable grammar on longer phrases, that sort of thing. Because the dragons do also use it as just, like, a language - but we're never shown Ulfric or the Greybeards or anyone *but* dragons being able to do that, so ???

Lore and theory are still totally doable, though, for sure, even if she can't learn the actual language. ^.^
