[ Good evening Luceti~ I imagine you were just wondering about how long it's been since you heard the cheerful voice of your favorite Brigadier General~

Ah, that's too bad because he's speaking anyway. Cheerful Hughes is always cheerful. ]

Well! I can say with some certainty that I wasn't expecting that! Luckily for us it's over, hm~? [ A beat

[falenandawn]

[Wow, this guy is... cheerful.]

I really hope that wasn't "Nature". It seemed more like magic, to me. [Powerful magic, but magic.]

As for the homes, they seem to repair themselves. People... not so much.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

That does seem to be a popular theory on the matter. [ It's just funnier when he thinks of it as a natural occurrence. ]

Do we have a head-count of the injured?

[voice]

[falenandawn]

Well, if it was magic, it was very powerful, especially if it was already limited by Luceti.

Ah, no. I'm fairly new here, so I‘m not quite sure how to acquire that information. No one I've met seems to be injured, though, and healing magic is useful for this sort of thing. [Unless it's too severe for healing, especially with the power limits.]

You might want to ask the clinic.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

Very useful for narrowing things down, of course.

Ah- an excellent suggestion! I imagine that healing magic is quite the handy asset, too. [ ...:] ] A newcomer then~? I hope you managed well enough during our little downpour.

[voice]

[falenandawn]

Indeed, it's excellent help in a pinch. I plan on learning about filial magic sometime soon.

I was fine. Runes seem to work well here. Were you ok, Sir?

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

A very responsible endeavor. With that kind of attitude, I'm sure you'll do well.

Hm- runes? [ How nice of you to ask. ] I managed finely, thank you! Ah, and my name is Maes Hughes, by the way. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[voice]

[falenandawn]

Well, it never hurts to have plenty of options, just in case of an emergency.

As for runes, they are my world's brand of magic, you could say. It's good to hear you're well, Mr. Maes Hughes. My name is Frey, and it is likewise a pleasure to meet you.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

Precisely!

Ahh, I see. [ People and their magic and alchemy and newfangled rock and roll. ]

[voice]

[falenandawn]

Indeed. You might meet some other people here who use it as well. You have anything like that where you are from?

[What is this "rock and roll" you speak of? The closest thing Frey knows to it is a rocker beaver, man.]

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

Might be something to take a closer look into. [ Hm~ ] Ah, maybe so. It's called alchemy.

[ ...kids and your newfangled rocker beavers. ]

[voice]

[falenandawn]

Alchemy? I've never heard of it. So it's your world's brand of magic?

[If it makes you feel better, Frey's kinda weirded out by the rocker beaver to.]

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

I'd call that an accurate description. [ Chuckles. ] Of course, alchemists themselves would probably berate me for limiting it to that.

[voice]

[falenandawn]

They would?

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

Aa, you know how people are when they've really studied something. Just calling it magic gets them all twisted up and then they go on about what makes it different.

Luckily, I'm not one, and you're not one, so we don't have to suffer through a tirade~

[voice]

[falenandawn]

I... guess so? [Not really understanding, but he'll just agree anyway. Maybe it's a professional thing.]

You're probably right on that.

[voice]

[idkmybffroy]

Trust me, we're better off~ [ Said with much amusement. ]
