Emerald asks what the wand thing was.
 
“Oh, that. That’s called a Etheric Beacon. It can be used to pinpoint an area to teleport to and also has the effect of reducing the amount of energy it takes for a pony to teleport. It’s often used by armies as reinforcements. Not so much ambushes. The beacon gives off a large amount of energy that most people trying to sense magic will see it easily. Almost like lighting a firecracker in a dark room. Pair of sixes.” Joyride says, placing the cards down.
 
Emerald asks why people don’t use those things to travel everywhere all the time. They sound really useful.
 
“Because teleportation isn’t really the best way to travel. Very few ponies can actually use teleportation, and even fewer can do it without error. Not to mention that teleportation is tiring, even for someone like me.” Joyride flips through her hand again and then continues, “Not to mention that the materials in Etheric Beacons are expensive, even if they can be used repeatedly.”
 
Emerald asks about the mantle. He kind of wants one.
 
“Like, just one like mine or a magical one? You can get mantles anywhere, but a mantle like mine will cost ya. Pair of Kings.” Joyride says, grinning at Emerald as she puts down her cards.
