... Ah, a little girl? Oh, she was so cute, too! ... Her age was rather young for being involved in such an endeavor, however. Still, Althienna was quick to push that out of her mind. If the Wizard Marshall had called her here, there must have been some reason for it. There was no reason to doubt him. Smiling pleasantly, Althienna reached out and gently patted the little girl on her head.

"I'm afraid I don't have any chocolate," she began, gently stroking her hair as she did. "However, I'll be sure to let you know if I get any, so don't be concerned."

Althienna could easily guess that it wasn't likely any of the other magi in the room had chocolate on them... and that many of them would likely be less then polite to a little girl, as her eyes traveled around the room... Ah, what was this? A nervous-looking girl, apparently a few years her junior, placing a shard of aged wood in her circle. A catalyst, then? One provided by herself? Curious... ah, and on top of that, the girl was rather cute as well. In a fashion she considered the child whom had asked her for chocolate too young for, of course. The little girl was more like a puppy. However, there were a number of girls who fell under the definition of cute she had applied to the nervous girl in the room... Oh, yes, quite a few of them appeared most [i]interesting[/i]. Ah, but where was her mind wandering? This was hardly the time, she could contemplate such matters later.

Cheeks slightly colored in embarrassment at her own train of thought, the silver-haired magus straightened, removing her hand from the little girl's head.

"In fact, I'll be certain to have chocolate next time we speak."
