[Communication without language is, despite common knowledge, entirely possible. Difficult, and requiring more than a little creativity, but certainly possible.]
Kratos?
[Just to confirm. Not every culture handles family names the same way, and not all sorcerers choose their names the same way.
'Kratos', if memory serves, was the Greek god of strength and sovereign rule. Pronounced just differently enough that it's entirely possible the similarity is a coincidence, but still. Not exactly the best name to put Skulduggery at his ease if he's worried about an attempt to take Ireland while the country is largely defenceless -- and he is. Greedy people do stupid things.
Next up: magic.]
Are you an Elemental or an Adept? [He demonstrates the question by snapping his fingers and generating a small flame in the palm of his hand, then snuffs it and motions for Kratos to do the same. The question should answer itself, hopefully.]
