There's something very nostalgic about standing in front of a large audience and walking them through scrolls and then expounding on the principles of magic. She has more to say at this point, though, she's dissected more spells into their component pieces and Olórin's been around for a while now to help explore vast combinatorial explosion.

"Bet we can find and fix a world in less than three months, if it's another one of the low-tech meh-magic ones like most of Edda's neighbors..."

"Well, we'd have to do it in less than two. Or at least get it stable enough for you to take a few days to do other things in that time. We can delay actually scheduling the concert just in case?"
