[She lifts her eyes to the view beyond her friend... and he's right. It's dark where they are, so the stars seem to shine all the more brightly above the sunset, and the far shore, more densely settled, is full of warm distant lights too.]

It is.

[And he's part of that nice view - but far be it from her to feed his ego by saying that out loud!]

With how warm it still is, we could have dinner out here, assuming you have some portable lamps or candles... or can you make lights that stay in place with your magic?

[In hindsight, she regrets not asking the fairies for light magic when they gave her her tattoo. She really wanted the Mermaid Song ability, but why did she choose retrocognition? Sure, it's an advantageous skill that she's already familiar with, but wouldn't it have been nicer and equally valuable to share the light-making ability with Jade?]
