Nova POV:

“So..you wanted to speak to me?” I ask Esmerelda as we reach a small clearing.

“I did, yes” Esmerelda confirms as she takes a seat on a fallen tree and motions for

me to join her. “So a gift you weren’t aware of..”

“Is it a gift?” I ask drly, thinking of the over whelming tension I felt in my head before.

“I think it is” she replies laughing lightly. “Perhaps you could use it to your benefit.”

“Are you hinting at something Esmerelda? If so perhaps speak freely just this once” I say trying to stay polite despite my inner frustration.

“I apologise” she says surprising me as my eyes flit to hers. “I’m used to talking in tongue and keeping myself in check. I have said too much before and it cost me dearly. I am, believe it or not, trying to help.”

“I know” I say quietly with a smile, “perhaps my patience is being tested a little after

recent events.”

“Understandable dear” she chuckles. “Your gift, although seemingly hard to control I believe you could learn to isolate the emotions and make it easier.”

“How long would that take me though?” I ask quietly.

“I will speak to Corina, I don’t think you can master the skill but you can try and control it more than you can currently” she says positively. “Corina is a more patient person to aid you than I.”

“You..impatient?” I laugh, “I can’t imagine that.”

“In some ways I am trust me” she says her wise eyes clouding over in memory, “but I

believe Corina can help you.”

“Is this necessary, or urgent?” I ask knowing if I ask what I’m truly thinking she would

not answer.

Looking at me calmly she inclines her head slightly giving me my answer. “Then I will meet with Corina” I tell her.
