[Wasn’t that the truth? And really, didn’t everyone have that kind of streak in them at some point in life?

That might be getting too philosophical - at least for a friendly gathering over tea!]

It can be used for that too. I know, once the mixture sets, I tend to put it into pouches to distribute. After a while, the scent fades, but it does help to have it in a more manageable form. [She can’t imagine how heavy it would get if she carried glass jars around everywhere. Not to mention dangerous, when they didn’t know if another unexpected situation might pop up here.] I… didn’t think about the fact that glass might be newer. To me, it’s something used so often where I come from. But Prydain is different, isn’t it?

[The pivot from almost philosophical to just standard chatting is appreciated. Eilonwy has some of her tea.] We don't use it for jars as much as for windows! But we have glass blowers, of course. Most of our jars are either clay or iron.

[Sometimes, it was best just to chat about the enjoyable things in life! It was something she could appreciate with Eilonwy - having a friend that she could rely on for both the mundane and the hardships they faced here.

Someone steadfast and kind.]

Do you have stained glass windows there? I’ve mostly seen them in the churches and older structures in England, but the different colors and designs really stand out. And iron… I feel like that might be more rigorous of a process to shape into jars, though I’m sure the craftsmen are quite skilled at it? Iron doesn’t agree with the fae in my home though, so Elias makes sure to not keep any around.

let's fade out here!

Some! Not as many as other places- but we do have them. Simple designs and some of the colors only look right at specific times of the year because of the light, but they're nice to look at. Iron jars take more work, you're right, but they're also stronger than clay.

[As they chat, Eilonwy thinks back to other things she wants to share about Prydain and really about other magical beings and how things seem to work together. She'll keep the conversation lively enough.]
