Aruna nodded affirmative as Ssarak excused himself to get his food. She didn't fully trust him yet, but his excuse for the mishap made sense. But if he wasn't trustworthy, then she wanted him close all the more. While she waited for Ssarak she continued to sip her soup and watch the crowd, the false matches against the other students were becoming one sided. There was only so much you could deduce from someone's armor and weapons, and fighting someone effectively requires more. Thus, she had kept getting matches that she was unsure of how they would react, leading to multiple possibilities that only made the process more complex and frustrating for her.

As she waited, she idly wondered what the demonstration everyone seemed excited about was going to be. Images of dancing fire and shimmering ice floated through her head. The thought of magic excited and terrified her. It made it possible that someone very unassuming could be a huge danger, and you wouldn't even know it until you were dying. But at the same time it was an amazing tool she could use... That was, of course, if she even had mage blood.
[i] If I am a mage, I wonder what blood I'll have.[/i]

She pondered on such thoughts until Ssarak returned and when she asked his question she answered politely, but curtly. 
"I'm not sure what the demonstration will be but I think no matter what they do it will be... Interesting to watch. And I too would like the insight as to what I may be capable of."
