[Whoever's watching the feed right now can probably tell that something's not quite right. Not only does Eley look blackened and sore as if he had been scorched somehow, but the tree behind him also looks as though it has met a similar fate, with shattered branches and charred bark.

And in his hands, he's holding some remnant of what might have been a scarf at one time, though right now it looks like nothing more than a rag.]

Why would anyone do this? How could they... enjoy such a thing?

[He sounds tired, disappointed, though that quickly turns to bitter anger.]

Edmundo the Blade has made an enemy of me. He has shown nothing but disrespect. I should not have let him get this far. If only I was not so complacent, so tied to the path of peace, this would not have happened. My tree...

[Yes, he's more concerned about the tree than he is about himself right now.]

If anyone knows a way to repair the damage, I would be grateful to you.

To be honest, the reason I chose to study from them in the first place was that at the time, abilities were very limited. Though I wish there was a better way to ... learn about their origins.

As for myself... [It's always easier to relate this to non-humans, though she still has her reservations-] the ability to use magic is innate for those who have elven blood. There are some rarities among those who haven't, but there isn't enough supporting research as to why.

I would also be interested in finding out more about those spirits. I may not be native to this world, but I feel it may be beneficial to all of us to try to understand them.

[Elven blood though... Eley hadn't yet realised that Raine may not be entirely human. Not that it bothered him at all, of course. He gives a nod.]

Then you have elven blood yourself? Interesting... I had not yet met anyone possessing such a thing.

Yes... the term used is half-elf, at least for those of us with mixed blood.

As for the spirits... it's been implied that they have a strong bond to the land in this enclosure, even if they aren't native to this world.
