- High fantasy is my personal favorite, followed closely by modern fantasy and post-apocalyptic, but I can happily play in any genre if the plot is good enough.
Unlike Hana, Karl did not wolf his food, instead eating at a slow and methodical pace. However, he still managed to clear his first plate at about the same time that Hana finished her first bowl, and he slid the plate slightly to the side. The house immediately scooped up the dirty dish, whisking it away through the door to the scullery, where it would subsequently be washed, dried, and returned to its shelf.
Karl settled back into his seat, the glass of wine carefully cradled in one hand. Hana had gone mercifully quiet, and he was just starting to fully relax when her timid voice once more interrupted his reverie. Karl glanced up, a small frown immediately forming on his face as he studied the black rectangle in her hand. It certainly didn't look anything like the phones Karl knew, but that didn't mean he thought she was lying. Karl had never bothered to keep up with the changes in technology, especially not after the start of the 1900's, when it had begun to change so quickly. He had no doubt that the things people considered common these days were things he would never have even seen.
No, Karl had never bothered with technology, and he hadn't built in anything to accommodate it in his house, either. Even things as seemingly simple as the lamps and internal heating were handled by various magical artifacts. He was certain, as far as technology may have advanced in the outside world, he would still be able to accomplish more with the things buried in his house than any piece of machinery ever could, no matter how advanced.
"There are no outlets in this house," Karl replied flatly. However, aware that the house would provide something for her shortly if he didn't deal with it, Karl didn't completely ignore her request. Instead, he extended his hand to the side, snapped twice, and then spread his hand flat, palm up. For half a second the kitchen was silent, before a small hole spread open on the wall of the kitchen. A brilliant, cerulean light began to spill from within it, before a blue stone appeared in the gap. A second later, it whizzed across the room, and into Karl's hand, the hole closing behind it.
"Here," he continued with a sigh, lightly chucking the stone in the direction of her phone. Despite being thrown, the glowing orb didn't clatter to the table, insead seeming to hone in on Hana's phone. A second later and it began to hover around the piece of technology, emitting gentle pulses of light. Immediately, a familiar ding filled the kitchen, as the phone indicated it had received power. "You can borrow that."
