Just in time too, as Nolan's outburst made her flinch, and he might've barreled straight through the girl. As it stood, he bumped shoulders with Sora. If Jasmine had the courage, she might've called out to Nolan but as it was she simply cowered next to Jamie. ..... This day was turning out quite lovely wasn't it? It had started so well, yet had gone sour so quickly. Alas, this happened far too often for Sora's taste. It would seem that Nolan too had a similiar thought to Sora as he well and truly cracked it, earning a bemused look from Sora as he finally had stopped nursing his head. He didn't say anything, he simply watched as Nolan bumped him on the way past and waited till he had left the premises before speaking. [color=39b54a]"Well...not sure what that was about. Oh well, doesn't concern me."[/color] Shaking his head, Sora turned back to Jamie. [color=39b54a]"Hmm, so this Ariel girl absorbs magic then?"[/color] Acting like the outburst never happened, the mage looked down towards the merged dual. He didn't expect an answer from Jamie, seeing as it was more just repeating back what she said to confirm, and to further prove that he didn't give her a chance. [color=39b54a]"Then I understand the root of the problem, at least the majority of it. You see...well, I do apologise in advance Ethel. I'm gonna have to break employer/employee confidentiality."[/color] Pausing to give a quick gesture to Ethel, he resumed in the blink of an eye. [color=39b54a]"It's a long story so I'll try to sum it up as concisely as I can. Ethel here, her physical body was destroyed two years ago and reformed to be made entirely out of ethernano. Mostly anyway, there is still a will attached to said ethernano. Her body is also very fragile as it stands, which is a key point. Even the slightest disruption can be catastrophic, henceforth I placed a magic seal on her to help with it. But it looks like I didn't make it strong enough."[/color] Taking a moment to build up suspense, and catch his goddamn breath as it was kinda draining to have a huge monologue after all, Sora took out a seat and, well, sat down. What else would he do? [color=39b54a]My theory is that your guild member here, with her ability to absorb magic, disrupted that delicate balance. Whether it was by taking too much or taking any in general, I cannot say. But, Ethel's body couldn't take the sudden loss and broke apart. And the ethernao that...uh."[/colour] Sora stared blankly at Ariel for a moment, completely forgetting her name. After a quick pause, it came to him and thus he turned back to Jamie. [color=39b54a]"..Ariel(?) here absorbed would've contained Ethel's will, since it would've had no where else to go without her 'vessel' so to speak. I..I know not why she resembles Ethel, maybe it's something to do with the girls magic? I'm sure you know more about that than I do. So, as it stands, our problem remains as such. How do we separate the two? I could try and seal Ethel's magic away, but that has it's own complications. And it doesn't guarantee that Ethel will actually leave the body."[/color] Assuming a thoughtful look, Sora had finished voicing his opinion on the matter. He was interested to see what ideas Jamie had, maybe one of her members had a magic that could help? But man, he needed to surmise quicker. That was tiring, and he hadn't even covered why Ethel had come to the guild. He had breached enough confidentiality for one day, and Jamie hadn't inquired on the matter so no point bringing it up.
