[The video cuts to Axel, smiling tiredly. He must be in bed, given that there are pillows behind him and he's covered up to his chest in sheets. It's all white, looks pretty idyllic.]

Sorry for that... Extended absence. I collapsed while caring for the sacred fire. Gave my shinki a bit of a scare.

[He laughs a little, but it turns into a cough.]

Basically, I burned myself out. Any of you have advice on what to do while you're supposed to be resting? I'd appreciate it; nice as this vacation is, I'm gonna go stir-crazy here.

Each person can usually only do one of those things, so I guess it seems less like magic to me?

[small_reservations]

Well, some of us specialize. I'm not super good with magic, but I can manipulate fire.

[fullcowl]

That's amazing! Fire is really powerful, but it can be difficult to control.

I can do it with my partner, but I'm not as good as it as he is.

[small_reservations]

You've got that right! But I've been doing this for 11 years, so it's not hard for me anymore.

[Unless he's really overwhelmed.]

[fullcowl]

That's amazing! I've only been using fire and ice for... about two months now.

[small_reservations]

Ice too, huh? Isn't that a little opposite? Or do you just manipulate heat?

[fullcowl]

Fire and ice are both part of my partner. It's a little opposite, but it's his and we can work with it.

Well, good on you. It sounds like a pretty cool powerset.
