"I don't know where ever you like. Mind you I bet you might want something to eat first?" Will gestured him out the door. It was funny, it had only been four months since she started here yet it felt like years, yet here she was showing somebody else around.

She made a good point. He hadn't eaten for over twelve hours... Probably thirteen, by now. All the other aches and pains he had been feeling had detracted somewhat from the gnawing feeling in his stomach.
"That is a... very good idea," he replied, laughing a little. "It's strange - So easy to forget hunger when your arm is broken and you're going... blind, but as... soon as you're healed, it's as if it never... left." He didn't really know if he was expressing himself clearly or coherently or correctly... But it was quite rare for Toreth to have an unexpressed thought, so out it came anyway.
"Where do you go to eat here?" he asked, tilting his head to one side. "Is there a dining hall, or...?" He trailed off, hoping she would answer for him.

Will laughed again. "Yes, we do have a dining hall and if we go now we might be the first there for dinner!" she led him down the corridor and around the corridor. "So, what are your powers? I can't remember if I asked you or not,"

"No, I don't think you... you did," he said, blushing slightly now. His Ability was feeble compared to what most of these people could do. He glanced away as he answered.
"I can fly." He had been quite right; his answer sounded quite pathetic. He scanned desperately for something else to say. "That's all, I... think. Calia - our leader - she sent me here because she has a... strange idea that I'll be able to control air. But there have been hundreds - thousands - of people with the same... Ability as I, and as far as anybody knows none of them have been able... to do so. I'm already... perfectly capable of flight, so if I can't control air... Well, I probably won't have much.... reason to stay here for very long."
He thought for a moment. "And also, I suppose, I can see during what your... race consider to be nighttime. But that... means I'm blinded during the day, so... not a power, really."
He turned back to look at her once he was sure the blush had left his cheeks. "And you?" he asked, smiling. "What is your Ab-" He bit back the Ancynan word before it escaped. It would only make him feel homesick. "What are your... powers?"

"That's so cool! Me? Nothing special, fire, molecular combustion which is where you can explode things through your hands, premonitions and psychokenisis which is where you can move things you can't see," she gently smiled.
