[[ Her own expression twitched towards bafflement, her hairless brows creasing into an uncertain furrow. It was a beat before she inquired further, the parade rest still unbroken, ]]

I... would appreciate any elaboration you could offer, sir.

[[ The faintest uptilt of tone at the end almost made the statement a question. But if the unwavering quality of her attention upon him was any indication, she wasn't at all disbelieving. ]]

[ Zack nods once. An elaboration it is, then. ]

Magic is a sort of energy and power that can be channeled to achieve what wouldn't ordinarily be possible.

For example- you can use batteries or electricity to power different devices. With magic, it's a similar principle only it comes from a difference source. It can come from inside a person, or it can from the world around you.

[ Raising his arm so she can see, there are several, glittering orbs about the size of a marble, all different colors. ]

Where I'm from, people have magic inside them, and they channel it using these. This one [ he taps a red Materia ] creates fire, and this one [ he shows her a blue one ] creates ice.

There are others that do a variety of other things, and you can do a lot with the runes here, too. It just depends on what you want to focus on.

[[ Respiration, oxidation; she knew well enough that organisms were powerhouses of energy as a matter of course, and his scant elaboration gave rise to suspicions that perhaps these people had simply... learned alternate means of harvesting that energy.

But... one point stuck. ]]

You say... 'the world'. Are we... in orbit? Or... approaching planetary systems?

[colorofthesky]

[ He's not a professor on this subject by any means. He would rather be concise when explaining things like this, if possible, and he hopes she understood most of it.

Her question, however, is telling. Zack shakes his head. ]

The name of this world -- this place, this planet -- is Allaidh Darach.

Once we arrive, we can't go back to where we came from.

[ Or at least, not by choice. ]

[muhafiz]

[[ Her pupils began to narrow; her nostrils flared, the only signal of a sharply indrawn breath. A flush began to crawl up her throat, and it seemed that, suddenly, she buzzed with tightly-contained energy. ]]

... You mean to say, sir.... You mean to say that we are on a planet? Atmosphere, day-cycles, landmasses?

[colorofthesky]

[ ...well, that certainly is a puzzling reaction. His brow wrinkling slightly, Zack nods once. ]

Yes. There's a map I can show you, if you'd like.
