Envy arched an eyebrow at the mention of Kire acting stupid under the enchantments effects, wondering how such a reaction occurred, exactly. When Ruli had been practicing, as he said, he felt pressure squeezing him, but he'd kept his mind. However the Amrian magic worked, it was certainly a few degrees different. "Here, I don't believe humans have magic." Envy admitted as Ed explained that such a thing was dormant in all of their blood. "Short of a few sly of hand tricks and cons, things that put on good entertainment and empty a pocket or two. But magic like you've witnessed I have only seen produced by those with elven heritage. Likewise, in different degrees." He added. Turning his head, he looked toward Narda. "Are you saying your family is shorter than you are? I can't imagine the surprise when you just continued to grow." He blinked, trying to imagine as much for a moment. "Kartaians are always tall. Take Rab, for example. He was probably taller than the average man before he was what they would count as an adult. Though he is far shorter because of his mixed blood. I have no such excuse. I'm just short." He grinned, showing his teeth before he bit into the last of his pork. Slowly, the shadow elves rose and filtered out, muttering among themselves about the decent dinner, and about the fishing that would present itself as soon as the storm passed. Envy listened idly, then looked around to the other three. "So, you're taking some of your citizens back tonight. More tomorrow. Then this gate ordeal. After that, what is next?" Envy wondered. "Don't tell me we'll be waiting another quarter of a year for you to make an appearance. I may have to keep your giantess for company and incentive."
