Adrian's eyes widened in amazement. He'd heard of witches before, but never one with the ability to manipulate the elements."That's amazing," he said, his voice filled with wonder. "What can you do with that power?"
Alia's expression grew serious, and she gazed into the fire. "I can control the elements of ice and cold," she said. "I can freeze water, summon snow, and create blizzards. However, great power comes with great responsibility."I must use my abilities with care and caution, or I risk causing harm to myself and others."
Adrian nodded, feeling a sense of awe and respect for Alia's abilities. "That's incredible," he said. "I've never met anyone like you before."
Alia smiled, with a hint of mischief in her eyes. "Well, you haven't met many people at all, have you, Adrian?" she said, gently teasing him.
Adrian laughed, feeling a sense of warmth and belonging that he had never experienced before. With Alia by his side, he felt that he could face any challenge that came his way and that he had a purpose and a destiny that were waiting for him to claim them. And as he drank the warm, soothing tea, he felt a sense of peace and contentment settle over him, like a blanket of snow on a cold winter's night.
As Adrian finished the last sip of the tea, he began to feel a strange sensation spreading through his body. His head felt light, and his vision blurred as though he were looking at the world through a thick fog.
He blinked a few times, trying to clear his vision, but it only made things worse. Suddenly, his eyes began to glow, with a bright blue light emanating from within.
Alia watched with surprise and wonder, her silver hair catching the light of the fire. "Adrian, do not be scared off," she said, her voice calm and reassuring. "Just wait and calm your mind and thoughts." "Do not engage with any feeling; just watch."
Adrian's heart pounded in his chest as he struggled to do as Alia had instructed. He closed his eyes, trying to block out the fear and confusion that threatened to overwhelm him. He took deep breaths, in and out, in and out, focusing on the rhythm of his breathing and the sound of the crackling fire.
As he calmed his mind, the blue light from his eyes grew brighter, illuminating the campsite with an otherworldly glow. Alia watched in amazement, her eyes wide with wonder.
Suddenly, the light faded, and Adrian opened his eyes. He felt different, changed somehow, though he couldn't quite put his finger on how. He looked at Alia, a question on his lips.
"What just happened?" he asked, his voice shaking slightly.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Alia smiled, a gentle warmth spreading through her features. "You have a gift, Adrian," she said. "A rare and powerful gift that not many possess." "You have the ability to harness magic and wield it as your own."
Adrian's eyes widened in amazement. He had never heard of anyone with magical powers before, much less believed that he could be one of them. But as he looked at Alia, he could sense the truth in her words. He felt a sense of excitement and anticipation building within him, like a fire that had been ignited by a single spark.
"What can I do with this gift?" he asked, eager to learn more.
Alia's smile grew wider, and she stood up, stretching her arms above her head. "That is something that only you can discover, Adrian," she said. "Your gift is unique to you, and you must learn how to use it in your own way." But do not worry; I will be here to guide you along the way.
Adrian felt a sense of relief wash over him, knowing that he had someone to turn to as he embarked on this new journey. He looked at Alia, grateful for her kindness and wisdom, and felt a sense of belonging that he had never felt before.
With her by his side, he knew that anything was possible, that he could unlock the secrets of his magical gift and use it to make a difference in the world. And as he gazed at the starry sky above, he felt a sense of hope and wonder that he had never experienced before, like he was on the brink of a great adventure that was waiting for him to claim it.
Alia noticed Adrian's reaction and smiled reassuringly at him. "Don't worry, young one. It's not uncommon for someone to possess magical abilities they're not yet aware of. "We just need to figure out what they are and how to control them."
Adrian nodded, feeling a little bit better. "How will we do that?"
"Well, there are many ways to test for magical abilities," Alia explained. "But first, we'll need to do some research." There are ancient texts and grimoires that contain information on various types of magical and supernatural beings.We'll start there."
Adrian looked intrigued. "What kind of magic is out there?"
"Many kinds," Alia said with a smile. "There's elemental magic, like the frost magic that I use." There's also fire magic, earth magic, and air magic. And then there are other types of magic, like necromancy, divination, and illusion magic. "The possibilities are endless."
Adrian's eyes widened in wonder. "I had no idea there were so many types of magic!"
"Yes, and there are also many different types of supernatural beings," Alia added. "Some have the ability to shape-shift; others can control the elements; and still others have powers we can't even imagine."
Adrian was fascinated by all this new information. "What about me?" "What kind of supernatural being am I?"
"We'll find out soon enough," Alia said with a reassuring smile. "But for now, let's rest." "Tomorrow, we'll start our journey to uncover your true nature."
After the words from Alia, Adrian felt a little bit cut off, but he understands that he should not be too excited when it comes to those things.
Alia continued to study the pages of her book, occasionally glancing over at Adrian to check on him. She couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility for the young boy. After all, it was she who found him on the side of the road, unconscious and alone.
As she continued to read, her mind began to wander. She wondered what kind of life Adrian had before he met her. What had led him to wander the Agrehim Mountains alone? And more importantly, what kind of power did he possess that was strong enough to make his eyes glow?
Lost in thought, Alia almost didn't notice when Adrian began to stir. He let out a small groan and shifted on the thick hide.
