His surprise at hearing that she did not know the strange bone's tale manifested only in the slight rising of his brows before he nodded in acceptance. His curiosity, it seemed, could not be sated as to the origins of the unusual item but there were many things he did not know the answer to, and remaining ignorant on this matter would cause him no harm.
"Indeed," he confirmed, and then he blinked twice in quick succession as she lifted the large bone without any effort at all. He reached for it gingerly, still expecting the weight to be significant when he accepted it from Seren--
And nearly threw it into the air on accident as it proved to be as light as a feather despite its size. He locked his muscles at the last moment and just barely managed to keep his grip on it and avoid disaster. Drawing a deep breath, he marveled at the incongruity between the visible mass and the actual weight, hefting it - carefully - a few times. "An unusual magic," he observed. "Though the size is... inconvenient." The diplomatic way of saying: how is one supposed to carry it around? "I wonder if it could be made into a lightweight armor?" Far more comfortable than something heavy and constricting in the more traditional metal or leather.
