She slipped out of bed in the early hours of the morning, silently making her way into the nursery. The room was mostly in shadow, lit only by a nightlight near the crib where Eli slept peacefully. She stood over him, hands resting lightly on the railing as she watched him dream. So beautiful, her little one.

Gently, so as not to wake him, she gathered him in her arms and walked across the room to take a seat in the rocking chair. The light didn't reach this far, and she frowned, unable to see his face clearly. A small ball of flame crackled into life a moment later, suspended just above and to the side of the chair. There, that was better.

Eli stirred as she stroked his face with her thumb, but didn't wake. He was going to grow up to be great, she knew. He'd accomplish things she didn't have the opportunity or power to achieve herself. So much potential.

"You're special, aren't you my little sorcerer?" Awiergan whispered, holding him close.

Eli smiled.
