Corrin stayed quiet as Leslie brought out the various things and set them on the table, nodding occasionally at each little explanation. Huh. The chain was actually a good idea, though she couldn't immediately think of something that would be useful for a magic watch chain. Maybe if they could make it unbreakable? She'd have to research that...

"No, these are all great," Corrin said once Leslie had finished. "And I'm sure El will like whatever you get her, but the chain idea is lovely." She nodded as she spoke, gesturing for Leslie to take a seat in the other chair.

"We will have to come up with something useful, but simple, for the chain. I've found that the more straight forward an enchantment is, the more permanent it seems to be. Otherwise they won't last terribly long. Not until you really get used to it. And some will never last long." She shrugged. "I haven't really sorted out the pattern to it, yet. Enchanting a glass to stay cold seems to last a while, but when I enchant my sword to produce flames, it only lasts a few minutes. I think it might have something to do with how much magic it pulls from the...well. Everywhere?"

Corrin hadn't done a lot of reading outside of the practical parts of this. But that was what she had needed!
