Meesei continued to examine the jewel as Juseich described its past. As she explained how the jewel reacted to magic, she poured more magicka into it to see for herself. It glowed brightly, and just as Juseich described, there was a point at which the magicka seemed to disappear entirely before causing it to glow. It wasn't a phenomena she had encountered before, so she wasn't really sure of where to begin. According to Juseich, her family had been trying to unlock its secrets for generations, and given her position, Meesei could guess that they had access to talented enchanters. It seemed like there was little hope that she would be able to gain some insight into the object that hundreds of years of research could not. Even if Meesei had knowledge of old magic, the Psijics' knowledge was even more esoteric. 

[i]"If it has been hundreds of years and no one has determined its true purpose, then I can only guess it would take a truly talented enchanter to unlock its secrets."[/i] Meesei commented before looking to Ariel. She heard her question, but as she looked at her, an idea popped into her mind. [i]"...or perhaps not."[/i]

Meesei nodded to Ariel, this time answering in Cyrodilic. "Yes, the jewel is incapable of detecting lies; it just glows when charged with magic. Or at least, that is its only obvious function. There is likely something more to it. You are not an enchanter, are you Ariel? You would not know a great deal about how to create or examine an enchantment like this." She asked.
