Sinow didnât think when he led Violissa to the groves. Heâd been overcome with the feelings sheâd stirred within him. He hadnât felt this at peace since before the ascension. Hadnât been able to control the anger that seemed to spew from him every waking moment. Now he had that control; sheâd given him balance, even if it was only temporary. He felt grateful to her, for her. Heâd wanted so much to grab hold of her and kiss her, but at that thought the fire rumbled within him, and he knew it would be some time before he ventured to that point. He understood that somehow, although unspoken between them, there was a desire to get to that place about which the prophecy had spoken, that place sheâd distanced herself from for so long. Now it appeared she was ready to accept him although their union would be slow and would require patience. He knew it in his soul and in his heart. Somewhere in her transformation, he sensed regret in her decision to put him off. Heâd seen it in her eyes, in her actions and heard it in her words.
He didnât think when he stepped closer to her, simply let instinct take over in place of the Darkness she had somehow calmed in him. When she had touched his hand, the intense need that coursed through him threatened to release the ire within again. The sadness in her eyes, the level of need to right what had been done, poured from her. Deep down the desire to protect her and to take away her pain reared itself up and forced the ire back down. This was why they were now standing in a barren grove with the wind stirring the new grass, moving its blades along the stumps of those lost trees as if mourning their absence. He did not expect to see what he did, hadnât quite believed what sheâd told him, but the tears in her eyes burned straight into him, twisting like a knife. Heâd known he had to bring her here. She needed to see the damage and repair what she could of it.
He also didnât expect what happened next. It happened so quickly. They arrived within seconds of each other. As he took in the carnage, she reacted first. âStop!â she screamed at a woodcutter slamming his axe into the side of the massive oak far across from them. The axe turned a vibrant green, the man screaming in terror, dropping it as it shattered to pieces in midair. The green had lingered on his hands then turned a vibrant blue as her Light magic took over where the nature powers had started. He was screaming and rubbing them on his pants as the blue hue continued up his arms. When he saw Sinow, he froze. Violissa must have gotten control of her power as the climbing Light magic began to fade. The man paid it no heed as he trembled in fear of Sinow.
