[luckily, Olivine is relatively prepared for this conversation. Eiden may have heard the basics of what essence was before they'd met, but there's a lot he's taught the man. besides, the children always have some questions about it.
this doesn't stop his laugh from being a little sheepish (again), and he smiles at Sylvain.]
Essence is, basically speaking, the energy that all living things exhibit. It exists as an ebb and flow on Klein, and manifests most of the wonders of our world. The seasons and mysteries, even natural disasters are often linked to the fluctuation of essence in the surrounding area. It's a little more complex than that, of course, but I'll save you the lecture for now. [he laughs, ducking his head and picking up another piece of food to eat.]
Mm, for clan members, though—we accumulate essence from the surrounding area naturally, and need to find ways to expend it. I'm still not entirely sure if that will stay true here... but I also don't suspect it will be a problem if it does, for me.
