"Right! Yes, we saw the magic you did earlier at Anne's", Hala smiled.

"Yes, it was really -- really cool", Katia piped up.

Adrien chuckled. "Ah, it -- it was nothing special...".

Val glanced up at him with gentle scolding in his eyes. "...Earlier it was all impossible, and now it's nothing special", he commented.

Adrien laughed a little under his breath, now a bit red in the face. He poked his slice of pie with his fork. "...Alright...".

"Where are you from?", Hala said.

"Ordly", Adrien said.

"Ordly. That's so far", she replied, her eyes now widening. "My eldest, Marina, is studying far away, too. She's at the university in Mindeve".

"What is she studying?" Val asked.

"Architecture. She will graduate this September".
