Mikado's head began to tip at the extended explanation. "Spells for swords?" came the murmur, almost in awe. That Tolten was apparently a knight was one thing--that he was an old fashioned knight with a sword, while supposedly harnessing magic for that sword.... All of it came really impressive. Even as Mikado kept shifting his belief. Though there was an odd point to question. "You're weakened here?"

The same kind of energy that comes from lightning." Which... sounded a bit like magic, that way. Maybe it was, and they had just learned it like science. Turning a switch to gain light seemed incredible until you learned the process behind it. It might be that Tolten's magic was a little like that....
