I will do my utmost to remember the compliment from such an esteemed hero when I am in need of guidance.
[ Despite the words sounding as if they are mere pleasantries? The Crystal Exarch is quite serious with them. Many rough roads lie ahead of him as he attempts to find the right time in which to contact her properly. Many lives and many decisions bar his path, but he shall not be stopped. Not when much rests on the outcome of what he must achieve.
His musings pause as he realizes where her gaze has landed. Ah... of course. He should have known it would have been a curiosity. Who else walks the lands with parts of their body as translucent as crystal? Simply because it is just that. Crystal. ]
You wonder of the state of my hand, I reckon. [ A nod despite his smile turning rather ... old. ] There are many magicks in this realm that require beyond what my body can give. As such, I rely on... something very old and very precious to aid me. Yet, with all things, one must consider the equilibrium and what certain things cost. In exchange for the aether and additional aid required for magicks that are of the most import... that very precious thing takes from me.
Or, in simpler terms, the more I might borrow from it, the more of me it requires. It is a price I am more than willing to pay and decided to pay a very long time ago.
