Kiron nodded along. "Admirable method of practice, pushing one's limits for one's own betterment. I can see you are very passionate about your interests as well." He nodded once more. "I suppose this concludes our exchange, doesn't it?"

There exchange (seemingly) concluded, if either Kiron or Dalia attempted to leave, they'd find a decorative gift bag not far in front of whichever direction they happened to go, their name written in neat, flowing cursive.

"Yeah, that's me. I go hard at everything I do. One hundred percent maximum no chill, and all that," Dalia said with a grin, leaning back slightly and slinging her regular skates over her shoulder.

"And I guess we are. I'll see ya around Kiron. You gotta let me know what you end up using the silk for."

As she turned to leave, Dalia noticed the bag and rolled over to it to inspect. Someone had clearly dropped a gift and... it had her name on it?

Peeking inside, Dalia squinted and glanced back at Kiron, wondering if this was some weird thing he was doing.

"If we happen to cross paths again, then I'll be sure to let you know what I made the silk into." With that, they both parted. Kiron was going on his way back to the shop but just a short distance away, he noticed a bag. Seeing as he never seen that in his way here, someone must have dropped it very recently, but there doesn't seem to be evidence in the form of foot prints. Maybe he could look for someone looking for it, or he could see who it was for. With any luck, he could just ask around. But to his surprise, when he read the tag, his name was written on it. "How curious." A knee on the snow, he opened the bag to see what was inside.

Dalia's bag is small, and contains a comb that looks like it's made of Jade... or something that looks like it.

Kiron's bag was significantly larger, the size of a loaf of bread, and inside, only barely hidden by the paper was an egg. It was fairly round, the texture of the egg soft, and the whole thing was a light grey color.

Dalia frowned heavily at the comb, looking around and squinting at everyone nearby. She was checking threads to see if any of them went back to her - to see who might have left this gift here. So far all she could see was the thin, tenuous thread of mutual gratitude between herself and Kiron, but...

Turning the comb over in her hand, she bit it to see if it was really made of stone.

There was no obvious connection Dalia could find on the strings, nothing that stood out in any way.

On the other hand, the comb did appear to be made out of natural stone, a small star carved into the handle. It was the type intended for styling, not for pinning.

With a shrug and seeing that there were no strings that connected her to anyone nearby - Dalia used the comb to move a stray bang out if her eyes as she started to skate off for home.

Running the comb through her hair would have immediate, if gentle, magical effects - her hair would rearrange itself in an elaborate style, the sort that would take quite a bit of time to set up normally. Repeating the process would produce a different hairstyle entirely.

Kiron eyed the egg suspiciously before pulling it out of the bag and inspecting its surface for marks. "Lacking intricate patterns... This is not an Easter egg." An egg this big surely wasn't from any bird he knew of. Balancing the egg just a foot away from the snow in one hand, Kiron began to rub his fingers together on his other hand, tiny sparks occasionally flying from his glove. Once he was done with that, he touched the snow and it formed a chalice big enough to put the egg on, though the snow chalice was no longer cold to the touch. Once on the chalice, Kiron further inspected the egg for any magical traces.
