"I am hoping to find out if there is anything different in the soil from close to the Singularity than in the common dirt around us. It may seem like a small thing, but I believe tests upon its magical properties would be worth trying."
This is to Ambrose. Since the locals rarely are able to go, outside of when they've done so carefully during the Dimming, it might not have occurred to them to try this. They must have been busy just hoping to stay alive as they did caskets. Istredd has the time to take samples from all parts of the crater and organize them into places. Either it will show that the soil right next to the Singularity is powerful and lesser so the farther they get away ... or it'll all be the same and they get a different type of answer.
Istredd turns his head to listen to Sabine's answer and he smiles because he's not surprised at all that she has the type of steady head to know what to say in this instance. And it is all the truth, it is ringing in her tone. He turns his attention back to Ambrose.
"I was hoping we could take Kyle with us to assist with the casket, so our attention isn't split in too many ways." Kyle has risen in ranks in the castle and he's well-respected by now. "And that will be if for this visit. Stephen has given his blessing." So Ambrose doesn't think that Istredd's snuck in there without their chief magical Summoned involved.
