Leonard straightened, listening intently. "Please explain, Teacher."
Alfonso nodded. "Long ago, the meditation methods wizards used were far simpler than what we practice today. Their primary purpose was to strengthen mental power; nothing more. They were straightforward but inefficient. Wizards had to spend countless hours outside of meditation manually constructing the frameworks of their spells. It was a tedious, time-consuming process."
His voice grew sharper as he continued. "Eventually, wizards began to see this as a waste of time. Building spell frameworks from scratch was a skill, yes, but one that slowed their progress significantly. They needed a better way; a method that would integrate spell construction directly into their meditative practice."
