[At this point, all Althea can think to hope for is that this place will be at least something like a break, and not nearly as messed up as it first appears to be.

[She couldn't help but be very interested by that information, both because it meant there were other people here who had some semblance of powers and were finding them... less stable, and because that meant somehow a kid had control of a force of elemental might and she was almost jealous it might be good to know how he learned it.
