Choosing to try again with the fire, once the act of hurting herself for the sake of power grew too much to bear, Maea guided it in low streaks across the stone, this time more intent on severing root from stem than burning the plant as a whole. Encouraged by the lessened smoke as a result, she amused herself with drawing patterns with the streaking flames, swirling and dipping along cracks and crevices to the furthest stretches of her domain.
"Got any favorite tricks?" she asked, grinning over at Alys like a kid caught with her hand in the cookie jar; half mischievous, half embarrassed to be seen playing with what had always been touted as a flaw and a sin. "Looks like we're almost done, so now's the time to show off!" That is to say - please show her a trick. The bigger and bolder, the better. It wasn't every day she got to see others work their magic, and air was a comparatively rare ability.
