Well, she and the boy really were quite chummy with the hand-holding, Sir Bonesington noticed. It was almost cute, even. He couldn't resist smiling a little at it before she actually did answer his question.
He let his jaw hang open for a bit. Then forced himself to close it.
Well, that sure explained a lot! That odd feel she gave off, her requiring mana so bad, the sheer power that she had emanated for those few seconds there... it all made sense now. Why she appeared to be an ordinary human, yet all those factors that did not match were there. Whatever kind of goddess or god-like being she actually was, she had probably been sealed in a human body and had most of her power taken away at the time. Obviously, her human existence couldn't simply sustain such power easily, so she burned through it quicker than a mage spamming showy spells just by being there. And if her slightly power drunk expression was any indication, it had probably been a while since she had any power whatsoever at her disposal. Thaaaaat was...
A little understandable, honestly.
The lich did his best not to sound surprised (and he honestly wasn't that much, given how much she already felt like some sort of high level spirit or old god), and bowed lightly with a overly grand gesture of his arm.
"I think that explanation shall be satisfactory for now. I thank you for the honesty. A pleasure to make your acquaintance then, miss Valda."
In light of the recent revelation, he mentally thanked the heavens or whatever other omnipotent force overseeing them for Zahar really not being here.
"My name is Valda Becker, and I am human," she says with a hint of a smile for Bonesington. I am also a goddess; it is a long story"
