[It's kind of on Rita for not really explaining her magic yet, but hearing a mage likened to a fairy tale witch is definitely a new one. To her, magic and science are intertwined--she can't properly study the former without the latter. She listens with a dubious frown at first, but as the Clarke's explanation moves on to fusion, her brows furrow in thought.]
So that's what you meant before...
[About the radiation burns. It sounds like a poor replacement for blastia in Rita's (biased) opinion, but she's never heard of atom fusion like this.]
You're not talking about a normal chemical reaction...and inside the stars...
But--how do you know all this? How do you know what happens inside a star?
--Wait, did you say something about spaceships? Who the hell are you?
[All of these come out in rapid succession as Rita's brain processes it all--she doesn't know whether to believe it, not until she can study and understand it for herself, but it's all both fascinating and shocking at the same time.]
