"... It's hard to explain. The air just feels different."

"... I was just out on a walk. Taking a look at the scenery. There's no Gargoyles in this area anyways."

"... Possibly, but I think it's something else."

"... Ah... Floyd. You're here... Are you chasing Rosehearts today?"

"... Good morning."

"You wouldn't like one of my retainers then, he is very loud. But... Loyal, extremely so."

"... Just an odd feeling."

"..."

"... It is quiet again. The ebbs and flows of volume are... everchanging."

"..." He's thinking to himself once again.

"Good Evening. The night seems to be... calm for now."

"Her majesty has revealed herself once again."

"I've only barely had a conversation with her. But... she is powerful and someone to aspire to be like. I look forward to more talks."

"... The Thorn Fairy herself? Yes, I have met her."

"... Whose?"

"... I am sure Sebek is trying to locate me at this very moment."

"Surely, my magic... will be of use here."

"..." He's thinking to himself once again.

Yes, he's got an incredible amount of magic.

"..."

"... Whether openly or in secret, yes." He shrugs. "I think it's a similar thing for many beings. Not just a segment of Humanity though they... Tend to be more... What's the term... Emotional about it?"

"... Good morning."

"... The multiverse..."

"... It's... good to be strong, but... the vast majority of... individuals are scared of my strength. At least, where I'm from. Power causes fear. It's just how the world works sometimes."

"... Where in the multiverse am I?" He's asking the [reader].

He's just standing there, in the open, lost in thought.

"... I don't know any that are as powerful as my own grandmother. But then again, the... multiverse, as I'm told it is, is quite vast. Truthfully, on my own world, I'm also... an extremely powerful mage."

"... Who?" He's trying to put two and two together. "... As for you... I can only hazard a guess that someone gave you your powers?"

"... So you are a mage?"

"... I have told him to behave himself. Hopefully I got through to him."

"... You are magic? Are you also a fae?"

"I will be fine, Shroud. Thank you for your concern. I have tasked Sebek with... groceries."

"... I do not, that is correct. An overabundance of magic but.. no 'superheroes'."

"... I can persevere. Though I think I'll... abandon the area whenever Lilia cooks next time."

"... I have seen... individuals who call themselves hero, but I cannot say any of them were 'super'."

"I am fine now."

"... I did not mean to eat it... but there was a little bit of... flight from the 'dessert' that caused the issue."

"Everything is fine. There was a slight... incident involving Lilia's cooking."

".... I admit, this whole.... multiverse thing is quite... fascinating."

"Hello Shroud."

"... Good Evening."

"It is a quiet day.... I am thankful."

"... Good day."

He's admiring the Gargoyles of a castle.

"This is quite true... occasionally power becomes a 'fairy tale' if not shown on a regular basis and individuals would challenge those for... various reasons." He continues to think for a moment. "... But... it has to be the right amount of a display. My magic tends to be one level... if you told-

"... Admittedly, I have been accustomed to solitude while I've spoken... but... recently that seems to have changed. Individuals being... less afraid or more bold... Or perhaps the amount of individuals who do not know of my lineage have increased. It is a thing I ponder on occasion."

He's slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the Thorn Fairy. Malleus gives a small bow. "... I did not realize you were listening in, my apologies. I was speaking... out loud, as they say."

"The Thorn Fairy's Raven is truly a type of supporter that anyone would wish to have."
