They call anyone not human that. Even if they were human before... I'm used to being called worse. [Beast, devil, slave. Monster was one of the tamer things and she'd been called it enough times to be used to it before arriving.]

Yeah. That's normal here. There isn't magic where I'm from, but everyone with it lost it when they got here. It just doesn't work here. [She pauses for a moment. A hand reaching up to scratch at her chitin covered neck.]

Removing whatever it is probably won't work. A lot of it seems to regrow.
