"I think you should stop and consider that there is some truth to her words." Damian had listened to the whole thing and knew better than probably even Penny when someone was lying, a side effect of dealing with shady characters most of his life. "While I'm positive beyond a doubt that some one is probably dead, searching around for their body would prove fairly pointless, as we are all already in agreement on that. However, your magic is known as a Fire magic, and most people? They hear fire, they think ash comes next, magical or not. Most people only know the type of magic we use, not how it works." Sighing, he walks around the cage for a moment, considering how to continue.

"Penny, you are my best friend, and while killing a person is wrong, that does not make a liar out of them. What makes them a liar is when they no longer tell you the same story twice, and her story has been consistent. However, whether we bring her back or not is not for me to decide." Damian addresses the lacrima. "What shall we do Master Jamie?"
