[ That gets an eyebrow raise from Claude, considering he assumed Viktor would've had considerable mastery of whatever magic was in his world. Because that's how this orb could exist then even with all of the technology that's far beyond Fodlan's reach, right? Something to puzzle over and nothing of great importance compared to what they're actually talking about which includes the hesitation to both 'teach' the device through experience and what he sees as clear reluctance for having to get rid of it after... whatever it is takes place.

He looks once more at the orb and is silent for a time, this time to contemplate all of those possibilities Viktor had spoken of - agricultural, environmental, medical - and how once this creation is destroyed all of that might be out of reach or might require a much slower approach. It's awe-inspiring to observe something with that kind of power. What little he can lend to it, he will. ]


The magic I'm talking about is mostly based in Faith in Fodlan's goddess. Which likely explains why I've never been particularly adept at it since my faith doesn't count for much there, but it's the main form of healing. A spell's cast through your focus, and it can vary in intensity to heal things from scrapes and bruises to much, much larger wounds like those from battle. There's theories to go along with it to help learn beyond having literal faith which is how I picked it up.

I don't have the books here, but I have copies in the Horizon if you'd like to see them. [ That part's also paired with a slightly rueful smile. ] Not the first time I've wished for copies of those books to have in hand here, truthfully. That's partially why I thought showing it might be best, but I understand the need for caution from the immense capabilities it has that you've described. Something like this would be rightfully called a wonder in Fodlan as I'm sure it would be here, too.
