The word, like the symbol it names, is made of power; that much the Huntress can tell, though the tongue is unfamiliar and means nothing to her. Maybe, if she could remember herself better, it might be different... but this mind is an insufficient vessel for everything she is sure she once knew how to do.
What the mage says is intriguing, though, so she makes herself pay attention to the answer to her own question: information, freely given, is a good sort of gift.
"Not beginning, nor end, nor a middle, since there is no measuring time at all, except as we will it to exist or no," the Huntress adds matter-of-factly, with an expression that suggests she imagines she is being helpful. "Though there is a great deal of creation and destruction as well: I think your kind would not be so out of place as you expect."
She has been watching Jones sketch, but now she pauses, and traces the path in the drawing with a fingertip, ending with that finger at Jones's wrist. "...You would not be so out of place there." A subtle emphasis on the word; a subtle acquisitory fervor to her tone.
