Okay, I get it. [ Tess' tone is brusque, cool, almost flippant. She feels fucking weird talking into a locket, of all things, but it's been a long damn time since she's had anything like a phone, so hey, might as well try this out, right? ] This place is magic. Fairies, trolls, goblins, whatever. You have 'em. Like some kind of fucking fairy tale. [ She honestly isn't sure what to believe right now, so she's getting right to the point. ] I just have one question for you. Cordyceps. Have you heard of it? And more importantly, is it here?

[ Tess glances aside for a moment, her eyes flashing with - fear, maybe. Not that she would ever admit that. ] Because I can live with magic and shit if there's no infection to worry about.

[ Whatever 'living' might entail here, anyway. ]

[ Right, she is a kid. No matter how experienced she might be, everyone who speaks to her will assume the obvious: she's a pampered student. It might be a good idea to go with this, so she nods feverishly. ]

Your parents must have had a strange sense of humor for that. [ As does she because who else besides her is going to find that funny? ]

I wish you the best of luck. If you do have any questions in the future, I can try to answer them.
