Nodding back at Seren, Saiden found himself relieved to leave talking about Vanya for another day. Making a lantern for her had been hard enough; recounting his life with her probably would've caused him to break down again.
Focusing on cooking was always a joy for him, as was teaching someone. Grinning widely at her, he nodded. "The first step to baking anything is mixing the wet and the dry ingredients separately. Oh, and making sure you have the oven heating while you get the dough ready." He gestured at the ingredients he'd assembled. "Why don't you mix while I start the fire. Happy to answer any questions you have along the way."
So said, he moved towards the oven. There was firewood and kindling stacked next to it, and he saw some still smoldering embers inside. Carefully, he built up the fire, using just a touch of his air magic to help him.
