Tearen listened patiently to everything that Essent had to say before responding with a simple "Hm."
While there were approximately a thousand ways he could get them to the Frozen Fields, Essent had failed to suggest even one, aside from the obvious. Perhaps this was just an assumption on her part that he would have offered such information inherently, or it could signal that she easily lost focus. After all, the girl had seemed to jump at the opportunity to talk about her enthisiasm and determination.
There was also the fact that Tearen was standing right next to a segway scooter. Ah well. The ex-enigma knew her type well enough. In fact, Tearen could see Essent getting along quite well with Jade, once they got to her tower.
Either way, he was eager to see his adopted daughter again, and though he trusted the Witch of Space implicitly with Rebecca's care, a parental sense of urgency compelled him to move along.
So, without further ado, Tearen started walking towards the gate to the Frozen Fields, leaving the scooter conspicuously behind. There was one other thing bothering him, though...
"What are these Fist powers you keep mentioning?" Tearen asked as he walked. To pass the time, he began to braid his long, silvery hair into a woven ponytail. Telekinetically, of course. Essent hesitated for a moment before responding.
"...I've only mentioned them once..." she said slowly, trying to retrace the conversation in her head. Tearen chastised himself mentally: it was so easy to mistake surface thoughts for spoken word when he wasn't operating with a more efficient brain. He decided to play it off, for now.
"Oh? Hm. All the same, enlighten me."

And, we dream of home I dream of life out of here Their dreams are small My dreams don't know fear I got my heart full of hope I will change everything No matter what I'm told How impossible it seems We did it before And we'll do it again We're indestructible Even when we're tired And we've been here before Just you and I
