Simple magic is more than enough in her eyes as when it comes to Creation magic, she has always lacked any real talent for the school beyond the smallest and simplest of spells.

To have warmth return to her joints and her discolored skin to lose its dark hue as vessels heal and blood returns where it is meant to be. To feeling of magic helps to chase away some of the chill in the air and ease the tension that has settled so deeply into her shoulders.

For a moment, she is quiet until she realizes that he has asked a question and nods eagerly. "Mm, that's right. I got it as a gift when I was small and has become something of a source of strength for me."

Alan nods, a little guiltily pleased with himself despite the situation. He's never managed that particular trick much — perhaps practice is getting him somewhere.

"Does it remember the strength, or do you?"

This is definitely a normal question to ask people.

[sulena]

"A little bit of both, perhaps?"

Because sometimes she can forget when things become overwhelming or when Saoirse feels herself at the end of her rope. Carefully, she brings the stone out and holds it up into the light.

"It's a nice reminder when I feel down."

[alankazam]

"A sun, in grey weather."

He sprawls down to his elbows.

"Or a fire, from the cold."
