Ever since the tragedy of her awakening, Gemma has avoided using her magic... the horror at the inn haunts her. But as much as the trauma has affected her. The raw lightning she unleashed unwillingly is one thing, the other more stable magics she learned well before that are another thing entirely. But still, what if another terrible accident should happen?

But, above all else, Gemma has always been pragmatic. Fear couldn't serve her here. She realized she could not improve and control her terrible power if she's afraid to use it. So, practicality demands practice... somewhere safe where she cannot hurt another soul.
