Strange nods, taking a little sip. Truth be told, he has no idea just what the Earth spirit felt like in the first place. But something had possessed Peridot during their final confrontation. He didn't know what, but he could feel the power coming off of her, power so great that it scared Nightshade. Perhaps that was it?
"With my magic, if I want to do anything large like move a forest or change a river's direction, I need to speak to the trees and the water myself. I imagine that the Earth Spirit would be something like that. The Circle mages speak to the essence of the Earth itself to collect it's agreement and draw upon it's power for their spell." There's a pause, before he continues. "I haven't really heard of the essence talking back though. But then again, I imagine that the essence of an entire world is more powerful than that of the stones, the rivers, or the trees."
It's obvious he's about to go off on a theoretical tangent, but Strange stops himself as he takes a small drink. He's got a feeling that it'll be wasted on Lambert anyway. Though, he does have one more question. "How long did you stay possessed?"
