Sirius stared at those silver flames and approached to see them better. He was surprised to find that the flames weren\u2019t hot; he touched them and didn\u2019t get burned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat kind of flames are these? I\u2019ve never seen them before.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI just tried to do what Liam did, but I guess it didn\u2019t work.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWait, what were the words you said?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPurifying fire, may your flames cleanse and restore the body. Wait, I think it was destroy,l got\u00a0<\/p>\n
confused.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius put his hands into the fire, but once again, those silver flames did nothing to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI guess I failed.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think so, but I didn\u2019t know you could use fire magic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI just did what you told me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know if I explained it to you, but wizards and magic bearers are not the same. Wizards can use all types of magic, but magic bearers have only one magical attribute: earth, water, air or fire. Even with enchantments, they can\u2019t change their attributes or use other types of magic. But you\u2019re an exception. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s because you\u2019re a half\u2013elf or because you\u2019ve also inherited your father\u2019s abilities. I understand that all members of the Venobich family use fire magic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s true, everyone in my family uses fire magic. From what I read in one of the kingdom of Laios\u2019s history books, that\u2019s something that characterizes the Venobich royal family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril touched her hair and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust like our red hair.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis makes me wonder what the limit of your magic will be, especially since you haven\u2019t fully\u00a0<\/p>\n
awakened your power yet.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I\u2019m also a bit curious about that. I wonder how strong I\u2019ll become and how much I can truly\u00a0<\/p>\n
contribute to this war.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril looked at her hands and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI wonder if, with this power, I can protect Alessandro. Although, if possible, I wouldn\u2019t want to break the last seal. I don\u2019t want to lose the part of my mother that\u2019s inside me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll help you manage your magic as best as I can so you don\u2019t have to break the last seal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, Sirius.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t done anything yet, and I can\u2019t assure you that you won\u2019t have to break that last seal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, but your intentions mean a lot to me, so thank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After that day, Abril continued studying hard to control her magic. After two months, she memorized all the magic books in the tower and learned to control her magic perfectly. She was at the tower\u2019s door waiting for the response to the letter she had sent to Alessandro; Sirius\u00a0<\/p>\n
approached her and asked,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI sent a letter to Lessan, I\u2019m waiting for his response.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou always exchange letters, but why do you seem so anxious today?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI asked if I could go back to the palace. I\u2019ve learned to control my magic, so there\u2019s nothing left for\u00a0<\/p>\n
me to do here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril saw the messenger arrive. She ran to meet him, eager to quickly read Alessandro\u2019s response.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere\u2019s my letter?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, Miss Amara, I don\u2019t have any letters for you today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you sure?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCheck again, there must be a letter for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The postman checked his bag and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, Miss Amara, but I really don\u2019t have any letters for you. I only have a letter for the tower\u2019s\u00a0<\/p>\n
owner.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius approached and took the letter the postman was carrying. Abril saw the seal of the Veriatte royal family on the envelope and asked,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy has Lessan sent you a letter and not me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius put the letter in the pocket of his cloak and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think you\u2019re mistaken, this letter wasn\u2019t sent by him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius began to walk away, but Abril followed him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve seen the seal on the letter, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s from Lessan.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not from him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen why did you hide the letter?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
|||\u00a0<\/p>\n
Please Coine Find Me\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t hide it, I just put it away.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen show me what the letter says.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t do that, it\u2019s confidential.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know who I am. If it\u2019s a state secret, I can read it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, but I can\u2019t reveal the letter\u2019s contents to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Claim\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril had a slight suspicion of why Sirius didn\u2019t want to show her that letter and why Alessandro hadn\u2019t responded to her letter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe doesn\u2019t want me to return, does he? That\u2019s why he hasn\u2019t replied to my letter, he\u2019s probably forgotten about me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think that\u2019s the case, he loves you madly, I can assure you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen, why hasn\u2019t he come to find me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe wants you to be prepared.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve prepared enough, I\u2019ve memorized every magic book in this tower and learned to control my\u00a0<\/p>\n
magic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius had no way to refute Abril\u2019s words; she was a true genius, memorizing books just by reading them once. What took others years to master, Abril accomplished in two months.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPerhaps it\u2019s still not enough. You\u2019ve only been in the tower for two months, there are still many things you need to improve, like self\u2013defense, for example.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, I think you should learn to defend yourself. Remember the war will start soon.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDoesn\u2019t learning to control my magic count for anything?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, since that would only be useful against monsters, but is useless against humans.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not completely useless.\u2018\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour magic only heals or nullifies other spells; you can\u2019t defend yourself with it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI suppose you\u2019re right, but I really miss him. I thought I could finally see him again.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After saying that, Abril started to walk away, and as she did, she wondered if Lessan missed her the same way she missed him or if being apart for so long meant nothing. That day, she returned to her room and cried for a long time, wondering if she would ever see him again or if she was destined to become a forgotten wife once more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clutching her pillow, she whispered through her tears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
