Hell yes, Strange is here for this! After what feels like an eternity of 'don't touch the bloodstone, Strange,' 'stay away from that, Strange,' 'it's a dangerous artifact, Strange,' finally he's going to see what that rock can actually do.

Strange is away at the spaceship when he receives Syrlya's invitation, so it takes him a bit to return to the carnival, pick up pencil and paper of his own, then make his way over to the training area, flitting from reflection to reflection as much as possible. Unfortunately, the training area itself doesn't have an actual mirror (note to self, bug Lambert about that) so Strange has to walk that last distance. Still, there's an obvious spring in his step as he walks over to hear Lavellan's question.

"Not by much!" he teases in return. "I do have a reputation to uphold, after all."
