Basically. Sounds like it's more likely to get us results than trying to stab at things they don't want to talk about.

[It is a little bit weird, though, considering the situation. The magic seems to be relatively new, and surely the Joikull people could tell that that was probably the source of the melting issue...but the fact that they don't want to admit to it implies they might already be too attached to the new magic.

A slight frown crosses her face.] I'm wondering if their reasoning for not wanting to talk is plain just wanting to keep peace or keep the new magic, or something else.
