They returned to the old library just after sunset, Tom looked to be the only one of the three who wasn’t nervous. Brean and Draogo were already waiting and they made the short trip to the beach caves quickly. Draogo took Aurora to the mouth of one of the caves, where they would be partially concealed, Brean sat with Kiræ and Tom on the cool sand just outside.

“Kiræ,” Brean said softly, “I need you to understand that what you did, the magic you used, it isn’t bad.”

“Then why were you so worried that I could use it? And what exactly did I do?”

“The magic that you used is known as Elementa Praesidium. It is the ability to combine the elements into a protective force, which forms a barrier around you, while banishing those you see as a threat. It is a magic that is usually possessed by the Gods and not one I’ve ever seen in mortals.” Kiræ’s eyes were wide.

“So, you don’t know why she has this ability?” Tom asked and Brean shook his head, “is she in danger?” again Brean shook his head. “Then surely it’s a good thing,” he continued turning to his sister, “you’ve got the ability to protect yourself and that’s amazing.”

“I don’t think it’s that simple,” Brean said, “this is a powerful magic that mortals to my knowledge should not be able to possess, and even if they did they shouldn’t be able to use it because of the power it requires. Somehow you do, so tell me again what happened.”

Tom explained the incident with the mingual again and Brean listened intently, he nodded as Tom finished. “I believe I now understand how you were able to access the power you needed.” Kiræ looked at him almost pleadingly. “When you used this magic, Tom was in physical contact with you and I believe you may have drawn the power you needed from both of you.”

“So it was our combined power that produced this magic?” Tom asked.

“Does that mean Tom also has it?”

Brean considered this for some time, “I don’t know,” he said finally. They sat in silence for several minutes, then Brean as if forgetting they were there began muttering to himself. “Still very odd…and what about the opposite? Their powers are certainly unique…perhaps he-”

“What opposite?” Tom asked and Brean winced as he was brought back to reality.

“There is an opposite to the magic Kiræ performed, it is known as Elementa Validus and it also requires the combination of all four elements to work.”

“And what does it do?” Tom asked warily.

“It destroys,” Brean replied slowly.

“Destroys what?” Tom asked.

“That which you deem threatening. By combining the elements you are able to create a destructive energy, which will radiate from you and destroy your enemies.”

“Do you think I have this ability?”

“It’s possible,” Brean said, “but the chances are minimal, you will have to attempt it to see.” Brean turned back to Kiræ, “if you are willing to lift your boycott, I will do my best to teach you how to control this new magic.
