“You are who you decide to be, Kiva. Good or bad, it’s your decision. Your magic is a tool — you wield it, not the other way around. It can’t turn you into someone you don’t want to be. That’s not how it works.” His tone softened as he finished, “You don’t have to fear your magic. But you do need to nurture it, embrace it, strengthen it. And when you do . . . Kiva, you could change the world. Heal the world.”
