As they vanished from view, I couldn't help but exhale a heavy sigh, astounded by how quickly the situation had turned on its head. Even though I was confident that Ursa's hands would heal, it served as a stark reminder that newly awakened gifts could be treacherous. It made me realize that I needed to be more cautious and composed, as the same could happen to me at any moment.
With that realization, I made a mental note to be more mindful of my actions and surroundings from this day forward until after I awakened my gift.
Nevertheless, I cleared my throat to command everyone's attention. With Fiona's absence, I needed to gather my composure and take charge, especially since I was dealing with a group of teenagers.
