[@Stabby] [@Zeroth] The last thing that Femus expected was to have Nira call out to him for advice. He continued holding his spell stable and tried to keep a part of his mind on developing Shock Round while he figured out what to do. It was clear that Nira was feeling the pressure after starting to develop a relationship with this other pixie. But, Femus hesitated to respond. He felt like they weren't capable enough to bring in a pet/ally at that level. The pixie could be useful but it would have to settle down first, completely going against its nature. It just didn't seem possible. A wisp might be a better bet but those seemed... grumpier. Maybe they should start smaller and develop skills to help them out with this kind of thing. Perhaps bugs or small mice or something like that. Still, he hadn't seen anything like that... unless it was in something else's stomach. For now, though... he needed to answer "If it can't be controlled, and it can't be trusted, then we don't need it with us. If it follows us or we encounter it later, we'll deal with it then. If we have the right skills by then, we might even be able to pull off taming it." He said finally, speaking loudly enough to be heard but without exposing himself visually. Oddly enough, the act of speaking while trying to maintain a spell brought something to mind. Magic often involved chants and such. Maybe that would help to finish this skill faster. He kept his volume down for this though. Small spell, small chant... something simple. "Shocking force enhance, Shock Round."
