She hopes her words do soothe Maea – to think that people thought they were walking around looking for their next meal definitely would unsettle her were she normally just Abandoned. But knowing and both becoming Ascended has opened her eyes to the many ways of survival, of their life, and blood drinking wasn’t one of them. Unless of course you’re looking for a good time or trying to survive in the end.The question is returned with a nod. “I had to bite someone after LongNight when we returned, but that was because I’d lost too much of my fluid to survive the wait until it was over to see my goddess.” A small roll of her shoulders before her green gaze lands on Maea once more, a soft smile at her lips. “But when I fought the blighted pumpkin before and got pretty hurt, I was able to wait it out without needing to bite.” It was all dependent on how badly they were hurt and how likely it would be to get to a shrine to replenish.
The mention of magic has her bobbing her dark head in response, palms opening and pulling together to create a small little trinket of a sun that she hands to Maea. “I do.” She admits. “I thought Ascending would take it away, but it hadn’t. Though… Having fire magic as an Ascended made it difficult. It felt like my magic was trying to escape, like I was burning from the inside out.” An indifferent shrug.
