There's a reason why it takes years to make one of these. It's a really important instrument for Elvish magic.

[ She's proud, ofc. She presses a finger to her chin and looks away. ]

Now that I think about it, the Elves from the Western continent have fairy familiars that can transform into their staffs and weapons too. They're more like tools than little friends, though.

[ She nods towards Flapjack. ]

So maybe it's more like that. Anyway, you're a magic user then, right?

[newphew]

You must be skilled, to have made it yourself. [ hunter is fascinated!! examining ambrosia with unfiltered and nerdy interest. he doesn't touch it, but he does lean in closer for a better look. so cool.... ]

It seems like every world has something along those lines.... [ but the small grin fades from his face, and he shakes his head. not so keen on this subject ] Not on my own. I can only use Flapjack's.

[ flapjack warbles a bit as if adding something to the conversation ]

[picky]

[ Marcille looks puzzled. ]

You can "only use his magic?" That's not the same thing as using magic yourself?

[ Marcille lifts her staff a little. ]

Ambrosia is like a conduit for my magic, and it holds magic power within it too. It works differently for you?

[newphew]

[ he is getting cagier about this topic by the second ]

I can't use magic myself. Most people where I come from can.

[ this is not much of an explanation, but.... ]

Flapjack is magic. So by letting me use him, I can use his. Anyway, tell me more about Ambrosia.

[ ):

This boy doesn't hide his emotions well. Marcille lowers her staff and slows her roll on the topic. ]

Um... Sure. [ She points off towards the town. ] Actually, are you busy? I was just about to go and look for a market that still sells fruit. Do you want to come?

[newphew]

[ sorry marcille..... he still looks very interested in ambrosia and learning more, but.... a brief look of surprise flashes across his face when she invites him ]

You want me to come with you?

[ what is being invited to things..... ]

[picky]

If you want to. It's just shopping.

[ She lowers her head a little. He can say no! ]

[newphew]

Uh.... sure....

[ this situation just confuses him, that's all!! what is getting invited to shop???? but since she invited him, he'll go ]

[picky]

[ It's so they can keep talking! Something about this boy has Chilchuck's prickly exterior and warm, sincere interior. After seeing those tears, she's fully endeared. ]

Great. [ She starts walking them along! ] Do you like fruit? Maybe sweets?

[ And it's so she can find out what he likes foodwise. Nothing wrong with knowing your friend's snack preferences. She'll happily introduce him and Flapjack to bananas. ]

[newphew]

[ unlike chilchuck, hunter is actually a teenager ]

Uh.... I guess?

[ following after her, not really thinking about it. he mostly just ate what food was in front of him, and frankly the boiling isles cuisine is mostly food that even dungeon meshi characters would find unpalatable... ]
