[Fine, he tells himself-he might as well check out the journal; while he's normally on top of things (you never know what crazy shit's gonna go down), he's been pretty laid back, he'll admit. It's been calm, despite the last event. He's managed to just relax and take it as a small vacation, or some sort of half-assed blessing. Yeah, he'll go with

It's that preacher guy.

Oh. [Amelia goes to the door, unlocking it to let Wolfwood in.] Hey.

Hey. You settling in okay? Spray this place down enough?
[Lord knows you don't want to sleep among Vash Germs.]

[But she has gotten all new bedding, which helps a lot. Just then, in fact, since she can sit on the bed without freaking out after she picks up the journal.]
I'm settling okay. But I wanted to ask you something, if you're free?

[He leans against the door frame, raising an eyebrow.]
Sure; shoot.

You said something about the spirits over the network. Does that mean they're real?

That's right. I've been listening to the fire one, Eferin. Unfortunately.

So you'd know how to use their power. Do you need to move to do it, or can you just think and have something happen?

Eeeh, it's mainly a mind thing. Talking with the spirit'll teach you how it works, but it's hard to explain until you actually work on it. Think of it as tapping into your focus.
That sort of thing. Even if it sounds crazy at first.

What about this place doesn't sound crazy?
[But if it's really a mind thing, then Amelia can use it to fight against Legato. She's never been a spiritual person, but with that incentive, it's definitely worth looking into now.]
Where's the best place to start?

I need to start with one who can teach me offensive skills. Preferably quickly.

Why don't you like this Eferin one so much?

[Wait, shit, she wasn't there for that.]
The Malnosso made me younger, and I thought I'd be tough shit by going to the spirits and learning what they could do; long story short, Eferin's got a fiery personality and we didn't mesh so well.
[Heh, he thinks about the cursing he's done already.]
You'll have to expect plenty of burns-though as long as you have a healer to take care of that, you'll be fine. Which is why learning Nala is probably a good first step, if you plan on chatting it up with Eferin.

You could always learn from the earth spirit. Or the lightning one.

[But it gets pretty useful from then on, so Amelia's listening carefully. Eferin probably isn't a good idea for her, since she doesn't want to burden anyone else with this--or drag them into danger, should anyone uninvited show up.]
So I'd just have to find one of them?
