Kate: These kids were using magic. More than that, they were chanting some kind of mantra to do it.

Kate: How many mages have you heard of that do that? What is that even called?

Phil: Well it's ritual spell casting.

Kate: Most of all though, I was NINE when I changed. That was over 12 years ago. Look at them.

Phil: Uhm, either they are the youngest chimeras in the world or they weren't part of the event at all. They were taught?
