Ayden nodded to the little boy, weird things happened. This was proof of that, there was no need to dwell on the reason, they were safe now and that is all that really mattered.
"Who are you? and yes, a few. Are you...are you doing this? Was it you all along?"
Ayden smiled and spoke to everyone, not just the woman who'd asked, "My name is Ayden. I am doing this, but it's not something I'd like to share with the world, but desperate times, call for desperate measures."
Ayden shook her head. "No I I didn't do this all. I pulled the boy from the water. I kept the others from plunging into the water. And I made this globe of fire to keep us warm. "
Ayden pointed at Zoya. "You, my friend, dried his clothes so he's not sitting here in the snow completely soaked. And a rather ingenious weave it was."
Ayden knew what it was like to find out you could do something so out of the ordinary. But she didn't have anyone tell her it was okay, and that there was nothing wrong with her. "Once you learn to control your gift, your side effects will diminish."
There was no need to come straight out and say that the sickness would vanish from her, there was no need to send the boys screaming to their mothers about the sickness. "But if you do not you could end up like so many others of us."
Ayden looked at the warmer children and let the fire wink out, but she didn't let her gift go with it. She wanted to get them away from the river and to safety before she'd let go. "I think we should see these children home. We can talk more on the way if you'd like."
