I see! [Lina leans back a bit in her chairs, arms folded loosely over her abdomen as she considers this.]

Admittedly the use of a wand or other device where I come from is relatively uncommon - they're used mostly for enhancing a spell's power, which are normally cast from the hand itself. [She demonstrates this by raising one hand and with an opening gesture from her fingers, a fireball hovers over her palm for a moment, then dissipates.]

Is the wand a necessity?
