[trifocal]

A lot of places? Then there are multiple places that have developed devices like these?

[holyspirits]

Yeah. There's a lot of worlds and timelines out there.

[ they say this like that is a common place idea ]

[trifocal]

I see... and just as we may come from different points in time, the items here could be from different ages in otherwise familiar worlds... is that right?

[holyspirits]

Exactly.

[ a bit in a "good job!!" type of tone ]

Nothing should be too out of range for you guys to understand, though. We're keeping it simple.

[ with phones. ]

[trifocal]

I see. That does make some sense...

Ah, for that matter, I did want to ask... the item I found with me here, the lance Drakodios... It needs to be returned to my village. Will that be possible?

[holyspirits]

It should go back with you if you do. [ a little dismissively, but; ] Why does it need to go back?

[trifocal]

It is a divine relic, and a central part of our faith. It is to be used by the priestess of the island, and should I fail to return, the next priestess will surely need it. I fear our very way of life would fall apart if my people did not have this lance.

[holyspirits]

It's probably already there. [ they say this in a kind of pensive tone ] I'd assume anything brought here was just a copy.

[trifocal]

A copy...?

Then... our people may yet have a future. But does the one with me now still possess all of the power it should have?

[holyspirits]

Probably not?

[ sound more certain, gama ]

We put a limiter on all powers for now. They're not gone forever, just until you adapt.

[trifocal]

Adapt in what sense...?

[holyspirits]

To being here. It can be a lot.

[trifocal]

Is that also why my eye does not see as it normally does?

[holyspirits]

It's part of it. [ they look at said eye curiously. or they seem like they are. they don't have a face. ] What does it normally see?

[trifocal]

Magla. The flow and nature of magic, or... to be precise, the particles that magic is formed from.

[holyspirits]

Right, magic. [ a little Sure, Magic of them, but: ] Yeah, that's why. You won't be able to see the way you used to for a while because of that.

[trifocal]

[ her special eyes... ]

How long will "a while" be, do you think?

[holyspirits]

Not too long, I think. But I've got kind of a skewed idea of long.

[ it's said pensively ... special sharingan eyes ]

[trifocal]

Oh... because you are an angel? I imagine you must have lived for a long time.

[holyspirits]

[ there's a huff ]

Yeah, you could say that.

[trifocal]

... If I may ask, is an angel something you are born as, or something you become?

[holyspirits]

Guardian angel is a job title. [ helpfully specifying ] Other than that... Both, I think. Depends on the world. In our case, none of us were born angels.

[trifocal]

I see! Was there a ritual performed, for you to ascend to this position, then?

[holyspirits]

Uh. I said yes and shook God's hands? We didn't write up a contract or anything.

[trifocal]

Oh... wow. That is much simpler than our way.
