โฆ Synopsis
I finally learned how to use my powers, and just when things were starting to look up, I was attacked and everything changed.
A student on a Dox-induced rampage ripped through the academy grounds just to get to me. Dozens were hurt, myself included, but with the help of my friends, I was able to put an end to the chaos.
I barely escaped with my life, and I was happy that it was over, but something's been different since the attack.
After I recovered, I noticed that my powers were no longer working as they should. Dr. Kresnik and Mr. Hoover said that everything's fine, but for some reason, it hurts to channel my energy, and when I do summon my flames, they're barely an ember.
Everyone thinks I'm a hero because of what I did to stop that attack, but I don't feel like one. I feel a lot of things, but none of them are remotely heroic. If anything, I'm afraid.
Things are changing, and I'd feel a lot better about it if my powers were back in commission. Even at my strongest, I was too weak to win on my own. If something were to happen now when the academy is vulnerable, I wouldn't stand a chanceโฆand that's just the thing.
Something is happening. The longer I stay here, the more I can see that things are beginning to shift.
A change is coming, and I need to be prepared for whatever comes my way. We all do.
