Getting to business

We were sitting in an impasse, he was staring directly at me, sweat was dripping from Rathie's head. Miria looked at him, surprised and also afraid of what might be on his mind. Lily just gazed at them with some expectations, something that might unveil why my legs are as they are. But this seems to prove wrong. Everything seems to have shattered ever since I said those words, crumbling into a heap of pebbles.

"This… This explains a lot, why I can't sense any real damage. Are you…" He thought for several seconds, he wasn't sure if the question is the right one to ask now. It seems that he doesn't want to talk about it even if it's regarding me. "Are you perhaps a mana user?" His eyes in one way sparked but on the other hand, he seemed a little down as well. Miria looked at him wondering while Lily was staring outside the window at the still loud wooden sounds.
