*I then held the stick in both my hands*
Huh... Too bad, would've been nice to know a little more about dragons. Even if they're from another world. Oh that reminds me, what was your world like? Are you and Lily from the same world?
Our world was... Well, to answer the second question, we're both from the same world, in a sense. There, we had both a physical and spirit realm, full of greater and lesser spirits that aim to become superior spirits. Lesser spirits like Lily have to possess someone with a huge reservoir of mana to complete that evolution. Someone like a hero.

I have an unusually small capacity for mana. To compensate, I learned when I was young how to channel magic through catalysts, like this metal. Channeling isn't all that uncommon, but it can make a mage appear to have much more mana than they actually do. Lily, being an airhead, didn't bother checking my actual mana levels and possessed me. When I ran out of mana, she couldn't use me as a host anymore and we've been stuck like this ever since.
