:I think we should make sure he's not supposed to stick around to be assigned his remedial ethics lesson? And I hope he doesn't try to set anyone else on fire:

Permalink

:Do you think he is likely to? ...Hmm, also do you have the Mindspeech range to alert one of the Guards outside this room, I do not: Lionwind's eyes are still fixed on the other boy who they haven't gotten to yet. 

Permalink

She nods. Mindspeaks the guard. :One down, one to go. Is he free to leave? He ran off and I don't know if he was already lectured or whatever:

Permalink

:Not sure how much the lecture now would've stuck: the Guard answers, :but it's not like the school'll lose track of him, we informed his teachers and there'll be followup:

Permalink

:Okay, thanks!: And she returns her attention to the remaining boy.

Lionstar gets to work. The 'don't' set-command, in addition to being less broad, also seems a bit less deeply stuck in place, and the process goes faster. 

Permalink

She helps some, now that she's seen it done.

Permalink

This boy also seems less gripped by sheer terror, though he avoids Azabel's eyes and keeps his gaze fixed on the floor. Once told he can move, he tests this, picks himself up off the floor, and then asks Lionwind in a trembling voice if he's allowed to leave.

"One moment, I will call in the guard again." :Azabel, can you do that?: 

Permalink

:Done with the other one, he wants to know if he can go.:

Permalink

:Coming, I will escort him out:

The Guard reappears, nods to both her and Lionwind. "Thank you." And to the boy, gruffly: "Come with me."

They leave.

Lionwind sighs, stretches. "Well, that is that. Any other questions, or - do you need anything -?" 

Permalink

"I think I'm fine."

Permalink

"Good, good." Lionwind pats her shoulder again. "I will see you for our lesson in two days, then. Excellent work just there - I would not normally have introduced set-command removal this early, but you picked it up fast. As usual for you." 

Permalink

Aza gives him a hug and heads out.

Permalink

Skan, it turns out, has been waiting for her nearby, practicing his aerial maneuvers. He swoops down and lands. "Are you all right?"

Permalink

"I'm fine! Thank you for helping."

Permalink

Skan bounces. "You were sso cool! You won a fight!" 

Permalink

"If that's how you want to put it."

Permalink

Wing shrug. "think it wasss cool. Want a ride home?" 

Permalink

"Yes please." And when they get to her house she hugs him and goes in to tell her mother about her day.

Permalink

Her mother has an official letter from the school addressed to her! The envelope doesn't specify what it's about, but it's sure a fancy envelope. 

Permalink

Ranara opens the envelope as soon as she gets it!

Permalink

It's a personal note from Urtho! He congratulates Azabel on her new-awakened mage-gift, and says that he would like her to report to his office at her convenience so he can check her Gifts again and make sure she ends up placed into the right classes for her strength of potential.

So Azabel turns up first thing the next morning.
