Cora sat on one of the logs facing the cave entrance where dying rays of light outside slowly withdrew. She brushed kindling from her black hoodie as Phil attempted lighting the fire pit, using his hand as a conduit for light. It was not to her amusement that Phil burned himself, however she never considered the healing properties of light to flesh, and quickly dismissed her concern. Phil would be fine. Which meant in the future they had a doctor of sorts on their team, if Phil's element did minor healing like that. 

Phil worded his question poorly, and Cora wrinkled her nose. Asking it so outright meant one was also addressing the fact none of them had any idea what to do, and all three of them had it in their thoughts for the majority of the day. So asking such a blatant question was pointless. But Cora merely grinded her teeth, glancing at Will as he struggled with an answer. His voice was soft, fluid like his element. It touched the sore parts of Cora, loosening her up. But it was short-lived when she saw a silhouette enter the cave. He seemed almost in a trance-like state in the way he moved forward; she recognized that pull. It was Kyra's summons. 

As the figure ducked down, a flame tiger pounded into the cave, running at full tilt. Only to her great disdain of fire did Cora act out of self-defense, encasing her skin in a thin sheet of reflective, fractal-patterned frost. Besides that, she didn't flinch or move a muscle as the flame ignited their fire pit, creating a near-bonfire instantaneously. When Will toppled off his log Cora had to laugh. 

[i]"So can I just start with 'Please don't attack me!' and we can take it from there?" [/i]Said the stranger as he approached, introducing himself as Yahtzee. She watched his creature with interest, especially when it moved to curl up by the fire. 

Cora leaned over to Phil, pointing at the dragon. [b]"Kinda looks like Toran, doesn't it?"[/b] Toran was a dragon-type, from the few times she saw the spirit. 

A new elemental? But, then... If this was Kyra's doing, Shida... Shida really was dead. Kyra wouldn't send two of the same element. And it was this thought that stopped Cora from being as enthusiastic as Will, even if she echoed his sentiments of having a new element among them. 

[i]"I'm Will and this is Phil and Cora. We have powers too just like you. You're what's known as a Hygron, a guardian of nature." [/i]Will said, taking the initiative to explain the basics to Yahtzee. Cora frowned. [i]That can't be his actual name, can it?[/i] As Will spoke, she slowly felt a sense of pride well up in her chest. He reminded her of Wolgran, speaking with the same love for the elements. 

Cora patted the empty log beside her, dispelling her frost skin in a puff of mist. [b]"Come sit with us, Yahtzee. We'll tell you all about the history we've witness in the short time we've come to understand things. To be honest I didn't think Kyra would be sending another Hygron, but I suppose she easily forgives when it means the survival of the earth."[/b]

She tilted her head, a half-smirk playing at her lips. [b]"Yahtzee isn't your real name, is it? Where are you from?"[/b]

She glanced back at the Water Hygron. [b]"And Will, I like your explanation. Did you want to continue filling this man in?" [/b]
