"Well, Master... I must say that while it wasn't all too unexpected after my last experience with your magical energy, you have a very... unique magical energy." She blushes slightly. "I may have... gotten a little bit carried away with myself. I had to make a conscious effort to stop myself from trying to take all of the magical energy I could from you." Caster reveals with no small amount of shame in her voice.

"Pardon?" You can't really believe just what you're hearing.

Caster shrugs. "I'm not quite sure myself. All I know is the magical energy contained within your body is... well it's far more similar to True Ether than it is to any of the elements that should exist in this era. I imagine it was only thanks to my experience of living within the Age where magical energy similar to your own was so prevalent that I was capable of snapping out of it even with a direct link to more of it." Caster starts saying worrying things, very worrying things. "Though don't mistake what I'm saying here. It might be very similar to the True Ether of ages past, but it's fundamentally not the same thing. Your own magical energy only feels similar to it."
