Sylvus jolted a little when the child seared his face with a tiny fireball and skittered away in panic. he thought to himself. Sylvus grimaced slightly when he grazed his cheek with his finger to gauge the burn. He closed his eyes, and with a few indescribable whispers and a brief glow, and the burn was gone. Her little trek across the bar and into another dark corner probably drew some more unwanted attention. As casually as he could, Sylvus got up from his crouch and picked up his mug, taking another sip and approaching the girl once more. "I'm not gonna hurt ya.." he spoke, far enough not to be singed by another fireball but close enough so she could hear.
No one saw the child hiding in the dark, most thought he was crazy. So they ignored the 'crazy' man. Mary slowly crawled out of the corner and went to pick up the picture she dropped, Sylvus has a feeling that he shouldnt let her see whatever is on that picture.
