[He wants to laugh. Why bother with the pleasantries? He knows what she's here for.]
Because you suspect me, oui? Make no mistake: I'm not offended. You're looking for a cause that explains an effect, and you've narrowed down the options. Why not speak more plainly of your doubts, Mademoiselle? I won't bite.
I do not believe you're the cause; however, I do believe you are suffering from unique symptoms.
[She's more than happy to be direct and even genial about it; this isn't a meeting between two warring noble families who trade their blows in slights and insults.]
It's because of that magic of yours. No one else here is so in tune with frequencies...perhaps if my Resonance abilities were available to me, I could feel and see them myself, but I can't. If you see inevitability in our situation...I think you might have some insight into what's happened before and why there are repeating records.
Perhaps so, Mademoiselle... but pull back far enough, and you will see patterns emerge anywhere. Records suggest this has happened before, oui, so should your focus not be on the root cause?
[Undoubtedly, Cantarella is considering that too. For now, however, he'll focus on her question.]
My audiomancy has its limitsβ more so here than back in my homeland. If we humor your line of thinking and study these patterns as reoccurring echoes... then until the cause of the 'sound' has been rendered mute, its echoes will continue to ring out at set intervals.
