Children were a bundle of joy, but what happened when that bundle of joy possessed the power to level a city to the ground? At that point, they became a natural disaster.
Ranar was an extraordinary child born of extraordinary circumstances.
With each passing day, she grew stronger, far beyond anyone her age.
When she had been younger, Damon's greatest fear was that she would grow into someone capricious and cruel because of the power she possessed. So he had always tried his best to teach her sympathy for those weaker than herself.
Children, at their core, could be cruel.
They burned birds' nests. They hunted rodents. They captured lizards and toyed with them. They drowned ant hills.
It was not because cruelty was their nature. It was simply capricious amusement. They did not see such creatures as living things that could feel pain. To them, they were little more than objects that moved.
They were ignorant.
