- Just as I reached it, the air in front of me lit up with crackling arcs of lightning, leaping around the edges of another - much larger - gust of wind.
- Covering my arms with aether, I spun on my lead foot. Spinning past Darrin's blast while using my aether-covered arms as a conduit to redirect mana, I struck back with a lightning strike of my own.
- Darrin raised his forearms in a tight crusade to block my punch. As the retreating ascendant slid back from the impact, the electricity surrounding my arms simply spread like a web of flickering yellow light through its mana-covered body before dissipating.
- One of the children screamed in sheer excitement, but Darrin's attention was on my hands, which had streaks of burnt skin branching down my arms.
- 'That sure looks fun,' Regis said deadpan.
- Darrin let his guard down, concern in his eyes as he looked at my hands. “That looks pretty bad. Maybe we should get you - "
- I raised a hand that was already healing and his eyes widened as the flesh returned to its naturally pale complexion. "There is no need.”
- Although he was still frowning, Darrin took a few steps back and indicated that he was ready once more.
