"Clocked that." Nora nodded, but she remained casual. When Mr. Chen moved to attack Nora, she was ready to parry the blow or at least throw enough of her magic his way that he was not going to touch her throat. Pace was already moving though, and she was aware enough of his movements that she held on for a moment. Nora simply stepped to the side and let Pace pull Mr. Chen's attention.<br/><br/>Normally she was not one to watch, but this was rather fascinating, considering she had not quite nailed down just what Pace was yet. Old, for sure...Powerful, check...Neutral, yep...None of those things really scared her, but they did pique her curiosity and that was likely why she was still here...That and he had spared her life. Nora took debts like that seriously.<br/><br/>Though Pace had drawn the attention of the rest of the casino, none of them seemed to keen on jumping into the middle of the odd brawl. People began to scatter, and Nora almost wished Sera was here.  Sera was good at reading people, beyond good really, she could have clued Nora into whether or not the people were running out of fear of the fight or fear the police were about to show up. Plus, she had fire, so that might have been helpful.<br/><br/>"What's the play here? Binding, back into the necklace this thing goes?" She said, loudly, to make sure Pace heard her over the suddenly loud room. If the genie was out of the bottle, it was possible she could shove him back in, but binding was never easy and it was going to be even less easy without the proper tools for doing it. Nora was generally not that kind of witch, she knew the basics, but she relied more on her innate abilities and her training...and honestly just stabbing things or whatever the respective thing that would kill them would be...than spells and such.<br/><br/>"What exactly was in the stone?" She asked, because he had been decidedly vague and it was time to cut through the bullshit. If he wanted her help he was going to have to meet her in the middle.
