Are you sure about that?
The second the man's hand touches him, Edmund jumps back. A candle on a nearby table reacts to the Abandoned's unease and the flame surges higher, even though he hadn't commanded it to do so. The flame rises just high enough to set the sleeve of Enzo's shirt on fire. The shopkeeper lets out a curse and quickly splashes the older Abandoned with a bit of water.
"Uh..." Edmund watches the events with bewilderment. Once things calm, he processes Enzo's words. "Oh! Hi Enzo. I'm so so so sorry about that! Are you ok?" He flitters around his now grown friend with concern, checking him for burns or other signs of injury. The child feels immensely guilty for practically attacking a friend. Accidently, but still.
