Ray blinks a bit. "Lot of people out there using that name," he muses. "It's a good name, though. Pleased to meet you, Raven."

Ordinarily he would stick out a hand for the shaking, but it occurs to him that he has a better option. He reaches to his belt instead and removes a device, sliding it across the table for Raven to see. "This," he says, "is a psychokinetic energy meter- we call it a PKE meter, for short. I use it to measure the strength of spirits, or magic, or other such influences in an area. It's quite useful in a lot of ways, once you learn to read it properly."
