The sphere doesn't respond to her, at least not verbally. Noriko can feel it resonate with her anima, but other than that it doesn't seem to do anything. Considering that she had attuned herself with the sword and the sphere is resonating with her anima, Noriko could only guess what the sphere was, the brass sphere the sword was encased in. She wondered how she could activate it...although she couldn't help but feel that the sword would have been wasted on her, Noriko only knowing how to use her fists effectively.<br/><br/>Before she goes to bed, Noriko will ask her people to double the strength of the watch. She couldn't be sure if someone had seen her and there was simply no way she was going to risk it. Noriko went to bed with it orb tucked beneath her pillow.
