Magic. [ it's nothing short of a scoff. whatever his double did, it was almost impressive- it wasn't lacking some ambition, (perhaps one of the only traits balem would readily be willing to accept in others) and it would have been better if he wasn't just offered that word in answer.
it's an honest answer, sincere down to the on-edge, open manner.
but balem would sooner let earth fall from his inheritance than readily accept magic over science. ] Magic has often been the tersies' simple explanation for advancements ahead of their time.
[ insult or a slight hint of compliment? hard to tell, but that short-fuse anger has somewhat faded down to passive discontent. ] - you are from Earth, at least?
[ there's an afterthought about that relic, now that the proverbial (literal) elephant in the room was removed. he moves forward, looks both effortless and annoyed at having to move at all. he's clearly still more than unhappy about being used as a shield, whether intentional or not. someone as petty as this guy is going to hold a grudge. ] And - see that you never put me between anything here and yourself again. [ can't you tell he's Important?!! ]
