Subaru:  “Lesser spirits, huh?”

Puck:  “That’s right. Most are classified as lesser or greater spirits…though a lot are outside of those categories.”

Subaru:  Subaru frowned at the term he hadn’t heard before. “Err, you see, a Spirit Master can’t use spirit spells unless she makes a pact with spirits first. The details of the pacts differ according to the spirits. Still with me?”

Puck:  “It helps that you’re quick on the uptake. This won’t get far if you keep going off on tangents, though?”

Subaru:  Oops, said Subaru with a blushy smile.
