Before Enki could reply about the empathy, Sylv continued about the instrument. He wrinkled his nose and looked at the ryill with some measure out disgust. "I'm... not sure you could call that 'playing an instrument'," he grumbled.
And then he sighed, letting the other hand fall from the back of his neck and starting to fidget with the instrument somewhat. "A spell is close enough, I guess? Except it's... passive, not deliberate. Unless I make an effort I sort of pick up and spill strong emotions."
He shifted his focus to the instrument again. "This is called a Ryill in Rihan, but I think I've mostly heard Terrhasu call it a 'Vulcan harp." As usual when he quoted something in Ængliish his accent ended up particularly heavy for those two words. "It's... an instrument shared by Rihannsu and Thaessu, or umm Vuhlkansu, I guess, to use their own name for themselves." He paused, realizing he was getting awfully close to the aimless rambling stage and then gave a small shrug.
