"You got anything that would allow me to contact you when I've scouted the place?"
Kaze nodded and then rummaged about in the small rucksack he carried under his arm.
Ranma blinked as the evon held out a small, silver clamshell-shaped device made of plastic. "This is... you have a cell phone?"
"Of course," Kaze said. "I do not share the view of certain doddering old - mostly elven - magi that Earth Realm technology is worthless,
unreliable alchemy to be shunned for older practices."
K's brow furrowed. "But... if you had a cell all this time... shouldn't you have called home to tell your church what happened to you? I mean,
they still don't know you survived, right?"
"Are you out of your armor-plated mind?" The priest shouted incredulously. "Do you have any idea what the roaming charges for this thing is?
We're over two hundred miles from the nearest service area! My family may be rich, but I live on stipends and gambling winnings!"
