Three hours later, you're standing in front of a Magikiras suit unit, which you're staring at in awe. While you've seen pictures and watched them pass by in parades, you've never seen one up close like this before.

Right now, the suit is locked onto a platform. Like most other models, this one is eight feet tall and shaped like bulky human armor. It's currently opened up, that is to say, its arms, legs, and torso are parted so that a human can enter and put the armor on.

This also allows you to view the exoskeleton that's the main component of the Magikiras suit. Everything else about the suit is interchangeable, even the plating that most people assume to be the actual suit itself. But the exoskeleton is the key to the Magikiras' popularity, allowing some form of flexibility so that the suit can be equipped depending on the nature of the battle.

Even now, in its inactive state, you can see lines of energy flowing up and down the skeleton, drawing you closer to inspect it. Mages in a Magikiras unit are especially potent, as the Magikiras unit allows them to supercharge their abilities through the exoskeleton's Magitek engine.

"Ahem."
