Elizabeth
The part that made her job difficult was the flash of flames. Being so close to the wall, concentrating on catching the water droplets, then getting a burst of heat in the face? Not helpful. As she pulled back from the warmth, her feet slipped on the water and ice combination, sending the bucket jostling in front of her. It would have been fine, if it hadn't sloshed all down the front of her shirt.
With a sharp intake of breath, Elizabeth leapt to her feet. The bucket dropped to the ground with a loud clang, splashing the rest of the water over the stones. An exhausted sigh was the only sign of her annoyance as she wrung out her clothes enough to keep it from seeping into her skin. Shaking her head, Elizabeth righted the container and knelt down again. With an encouraging nod to the others, she said, "Let's try that again."
Elizabeth tries again.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
