Are you sure about that?
Edmund hesitates for only a moment. The hand running soothingly over his hair and his Mum's warm eyes convincing him that it's ok. "I'm an Abandoned, Mummy." It's like a weight has been lifted off of his chest as the words tumble out. "I have fire magic." Or more specifically, candle flickering magic at the moment.
The small child takes his Mum's hand in his, "Uncle Jata helped me figure it out. He also told me that Lady Safrin wouldn't be angry, just like you said last time. But..." He squeezes his Mum's hand for a moment. "I'm still worried. I don't want Mummy to get in trouble with Lady Safrin. And I still want Lady Safrin to like me too."
