Adjusting my pace once again, I spoke.
"How much do you know about Fate's Interface?"
I didn't bother easing into the questions.
I asked her directly.
Lilith continued walking. For a moment, I thought she wouldn't answer.
Then, finally, she parted her lips.
"Nothing much."
Two words. That was all she said.
Then she went silent.
Is that all she was going to say?
"It's fine," I said. "You can tell me anything about it."
"Sighh.."
Lilith sighed.
A quiet, almost imperceptible sound.
Or maybe it was just me who was imagining it.
"It was a gift," she finally said. "Provided to those who gained control over their Authority."
A gift?
Then that means…
"That means you have it too."
She had used her Authority for a long time, maybe over a millenia. There was no way she didn't have it.
If she did, then she could teach me more about it.
But—
"No."
Her answer was different.
"Only Solmora's had it."
"Solmora?" I was surprised.
It was my first time hearing that word.
