The minotaur chuckles. "Just watch."

Mark pants as he offers his good hand to Chuck when he wakes up. Once marks is up he reaches over and, quite literally, removes his hand. "Well...there goes another one..." he says, looking at it.

Quill blinked.

"But He gripped and, and I saw him do minute manipulations of a pipe and tobacco. That means...."

He blinks and shakes his head again.

"Fully articulated prosthesis?"

He was flabbergasted and astonished.

"Fully Whatty what?" The minotaur looks at him dumbly. It's nothing fancy. Are you sure you were watching the same hand I was?"

By this point Chuck has taken his seat again, drinking to relieve his growing headache, and Mark has headed into a back room.

"I mean a fake hand that works like a real hand."

Quill thought back. it could be that he merely grips and he used the other hand to get the match and the tobacco. but still there was no clue that the hand didn't work proper. he decided not to follow the Minotaur to the back room. He didn't know if he was allowed or not.

'Who made the hand?'

He shrugs and moves to help with returning the tables to their regular position.

Quill went to wait beside the door and once again remembered the feeling he got from will. The Minotaur was right next to him at the back of the room. He felt compelled to apologize for the thing he had not said. he turned to Will.

"I am sorry. i underestimated your people sir... I mean Will."

He corrected himself remembering what Mark had said about calling him Mister.

"You think, because we do not wear your clothing, live in your cities, believe your beliefs, that we must be savages? Your princess thought so once too. Then she learned otherwise. Then there was war." Wills voice drifts over his shoulder smugly.

Quill felt a foal to those words. All he could do was offer up some excuse.

"I can't help how I was raised to think. All I can help is how I learn."

Was all he could muster.

"It is all we ask." he says with a more good-natured smirk.

He smiles back and nods.

"Um si.. Will, who makes the prosthesis for your men. Um the fake body parts."

He added the last parts, remembering the reaction he got from using big words to the other Minotaur.

"We do. Why would we trust anything else to make an appendage they don't have?" He smirks again.

"I have to complement you on the sophistication of them. I never would have guessed it was a fake hand. He even used it to lite a pipe. The articulation is very impressive."

He says as he waits for Mark.

"Your craftsmen ship is grand Who are your artisans?"

"It is an ancient technique from back when the minotaur and the buffalo were friends. when they showed us ways of using the magic of the land for power. The women and the shamans make them back in the home land."

"Magic of the land?"

Quill asked as if the concept was a little lost to him. Ponies, and especially unicorns had been taught that unicorns were the only wielders of magic. That they were the only ones who has such a gift. What was the magic of the land?

"Life." is all he answers with cryptically.

He scratches his head.

"You're hitting me with something deep here."

He admits and ponders how life could be magic.

Will gives you a weird look. "Am I?"

Quill felt small under that eyeless look again.

"I don't know. It seems like you are but maybe it's just I'm too blinded by my own past to know what you are talking about."

It was a ridiculous question, an obvious question.

"From the sun. they process the power from the eye of Sol through photosynthesis."

He says but at this point he was not sounding so confident with his answer. Everything else he had been taught had been wrong.
