"Unfortunately, I can't. Even as a Mage I have my limits and I'm quite aware of them." There's an undercurrent of frustration in Casper's father's voice. "Children of the gods are much more resilient."

Casper says nothing. He knows he's just being thrown at the problem, but the worst part of it is that he's... not sure what else he can do. Mario's so nice and he doesn't want the guy involved in any of this and -

"We're running out of time. We need to find a way back, and if these mirrors are not going to lead us home then you need to figure something out."

The younger man is quiet for a few long moments, and then - "Why me? You're the one who knows more about the Worlds than I do." "I wasn't asking." Casper opens his mouth and then closes it, staring at the ground.
