"...right, then." Ciroc responded.

"Is all this technology a bit much for you?" Ilias asked.

"A little." Ciroc responded.

"I'm just being exposed to so many new things, it's a little on the overwhelming side." he said further. "I've visited a world that has tech in it, but I don't think it's anywhere near this level." he went on.

"And my home world of Adaminia has... well, it has semi-functional plumbing in the nicer buildings." he continued, before pausing to think about it.

"Think of it as... oh, how was it described to be once...?" he wondered aloud. "Ah!" he said, snapping his fingers. "It's like medieval fantasy, but add a little bit of basic advancement to it." he finished.

"Lunet?" Ciroc asked.

"Indeed!" Ilias responded.

"All right, I shall look for her." Ciroc responded. "What sort of person am I looking for?" he asked them.

"Look for the female wearing a strange band around her eyes. One that looks like a glass blindfold." Ilias replied. "...you'll know it to see it, trust me." he then said when the man looked even MORE confused.

"All right...." Ciroc said, scratching his head a little.

"Cafeteria, agent Sharp's office, or the... tech department. Got it." he then said further.

"I assume those blue panels will recognise those locations if spoken in those terms?" he asked.

"Well, with this bracelet, you've already helped me immensely." Ciroc assured them.

"If anything, I have an immense thirst for knowledge right now." he went on.

"...that, and returning home..." he added quietly.

"We're doing all we can on THAT front." Ilias told him with a small sigh.

"But we'd be more than willing to answer any questions you may have." he assured her.

"...though if they're about ME, then you're in for a long history and mythology lesson."

Ciroc nodded in response.

"I understand." he said.

"I can never forgive Vyran for the sins he's committed in the past, either." he said further.

"Vyran?" Ilias asked.

"I man bent on the destruction of Adaminia, and ultimate power for himself." Ciroc responded.

"He is the biggest treat to my world."

Ciroc's eyes widened a little, and he took a small step back, as Ilias just shook his head.

"The person in question is... a source of immense contention for us." he told Ciroc.

"She's caused a lot of pain to a lot of people." he sighed.

"I can tell." Ciroc responded.

"And... an elf. That's even more of a shame." he went on.

"The elves where I come from would never even consider such acts."

"Oh, in no way do I pity her." Ciroc stated.

"From what little I've seen, and what she's told me, if anything, she is to be commended for dealing with what life has dealt her, and turning it into as much of a positive as she can. Which seems to be quite a bit." he told them.

"Although yet, what happened in her past CAN be seen as regrettable." Ilias agreed.

"The thing is, if SHE doesn't regret it, nobody ELSE should." he reasoned, before pausing.

"...except the ones that did it to her. THEY should feel immense regret, even though they never will." he growled.

Ciroc nodded.

"Very kind." he said.

"Especially Aedan and Robyn, as well as agent Sharp, himself." he went on.

Ilias just chuckled.

"Makes sense." responded.

"A shame about Miss Hazel, though." Ciroc then said.

"She seems far too nice for her past to have... well... happened."

"....oh dear..." Ciroc responded in a bit of a hushed tone.

"That doesn't seem fair, though." he then said. "Why should the descendants inherit the sins of their progenitors?" he asked.

Ilias just sighed as well.

"They shouldn't." he said.

"But life isn't really fair." he lamented.

"However, if her cousin is anything to go by, there's a chance for mana redemption in the future." he then reasoned.

Ciroc still looked confused, and shook his head.

"...I have plenty of questions." he said.

Ilias just chuckled.

"I bet you do." he responded, knowing many were likely about HIM.

"But a big one is what happened back in the medical wing." Ciroc then said.

"What did your magi..." he started to say, before pausing. "Sorry, mana. What did your 'mana' do back there?" he asked Kiah.

Ciroc shook his head.

"No, no, no odd sensations." he said.

"This is doing its job perfectly, and even beyond." he chuckled.

He then looked a little confused, and glanced at Ilias.

"Snake?" he asked.

No sooner had he said that, had 3 green snakes emerged from under Ilias' hair.

"...snake." Ilias confirmed.

"Oh!" Ciroc exclaimed, very clearly surprised.

Ciroc smiled as he stepped inside and saw the redheaded woman, alongside a brown-haired male.

"Hello." he responded.

"And it's all because of you that I AM out and about." he told her.

He then paused for a moment, thinking about something.

Trying to remember something.

"Ah!" he then said, snapping his fingers.

"Kiah, right?" he asked. "The one that had the unfortunate incident when I stepped out of my room at the medical wing?" he asked further, sounding a little sheepish with that.

Savra was just silent, before taking another bite.

And another. And another.

"Woah, woah, slow down." Ryker said.

"But won't it melt?" Savra asked.

"Not worth getting a headache over." Ryker reasoned, before just shaking his head.

"And yeah, seems so." he told Eke with a small smile.

"Oh, I see, I see." Ciroc responded.

"Still, that is a very useful ability, and the fact that you could tell at a glance whether or not the bracelet worked is extremely handy." he commented, looking over to the open door afterwards.

"As for those currently over there..." he then said, trailing off and pausing briefly as he thought about it.

"Well, I would hate to bother them..." he said. "If they're busy, anyway." he said further.

"Should I come back later?" he asked her.

"Or... should they be told that they can come and see me? Or what is the protocol here?" he asked further.

Ciroc nodded when she said what she did.

"I can understand that." he told her.

"Silver lining and all that, I suppose." he went on.

"Still, your capabilities seem quite useful." he continued.

"And again, thank you for the bracelet." he said again.

"Is it of your doing, solely?" he asked her.
