"It would not be impossible to learn, should you wish. However, Hythlodaeus or Emet-Selch would be better suited to judging how much you possess. My sight is not so keen as theirs."

He is more than willing to teach, certainly. But he is not the best judge of how much aether any one person should happen to possess. Still, neither does he dwell on the idea overmuch. Should Ignis wish to follow up on the suggestion he is free to do so, and if not it matters little enough to Lahabrea.

Instead there's a nod at the question.

"I would accept tea, should you wish to offer."

Their sight is better... Distantly, Ignis recalls how one of the bakers - Mithrun - had been quite upset when told of their particular situation and how dragon souls were bound to theirs. Indeed, Emet-Selch had been the one to step forward to speak with him about something. And if he recalls some posts on the network...

"I suppose it is worth inquiring about if they have the capability," he affirms. "Still, for now, I believe the bakery should have access to some lovely tea..."

Which is where he'll take Lahabrea. If nothing else, Ignis can appreciate someone else so committed to his place in life like the local baker is.

wrapped!

"They should."

Getting Emet-Selch to agree to do so is a task Lahabrea will leave in Ignis' hands, but that he doesn't mention. He is not the one who wishes to know, and though he is capable of seeing aether to an extent, his skills are not sufficient to tell what sort of capability one might have. Not if he wants to have any degree of accuracy.

Still, he turns his attention instead to the bakery and the promise of tea besides. There will be time to continue discussing aether and the possibility thereof later. For now, he has earned at least a brief moment of relaxation and conversation that is at least less immediately aimed at celebrating the end of the year.
