I've heard about the collars that neutralize a person's magical abilities.
Do they still use those in this new Verdana?
If so, how do they react when used on a non-human?
Are they turned human too or are their abilities simply taken away?

Do you mind if I ask you a favour?

A gift? [ awkward awkward he still doesn't know what to do when offered gifts! ] You didn't have to..! I'm sure that whatever it is is wonderful.

Ah... Did you want to come to my cave instead? I finally finished making it 'homey'! Your friend would be welcome to come too, ne?

I would like that very much, Akito. Is it far from where I live with Kozmotis? If you can send me directions, then I am certain Dane and I can track you.

[akito]

My sense of 'far' is different from most people's... But I don't think it's too far away! I can ask the Wind to lead you over, if you'd like.

[That pulls a warm laugh from Elissa.]

Dane would likely love that. He is a friend from home, Akito! I have at last found someone who truly knows me. He has been my friend since I was a child. When I awakened in the glass tomb after perishing from Tarbosaurus-inflicted injuries, I found him patiently waiting for me by my footlocker. You can imagine how happy I was to see him.

[ he can't really imagine it - not really - since he has nothing to relate it to, but he can understand it, at least. ]

That's good! It's always nice to have friends from home here, ne?
