When I got here, someone told me that it might be better if I kept my powers hidden.
Since then, I've seen people who have powers talking about them here. It's nice that I'm not alone anymore, but it's not nice to be afraid of what might happen if everyone knows what I can do.
I might have been able to help a few days ago if I had known what was going on. For example, I haven't tried it before, but I think I might be able to put out fires. I just want to be sure that it's safe for everyone if I make the attempt. I don't want to hurt anyone.
So, what do you think? Do you have powers? Were you born with them? What can you do? Do you hide your powers here? Is there a reason why I should, or why I shouldn't?
Also, can you do the same things that you could do at home? I've been practicing alone, and I can't. I'd like to understand that, too.
If you don't have powers, are you afraid of people who have them?
If you're trying to keep any of this a secret, you don't have to tell me who you are.
Thank you.

Things have changed since then, though. I wasn't frightened anymore. My powers are part of me, and I enjoy using them, as long as I can keep from hurting anyone with them, and as long as it's safe for other people to know about them. I thought they would hate me, but they didn't.
What are you capable of? Do you understand how to control what you can do?

My mother and grandmother were accused of witchcraft more than once.
Your people have come to accept it, after all? You are blessed, truly. I am glad of it. But how did you learn to control such abilities?
I.. am not entirely certain. I see things which either have or will happen. And influence the weather. And there may be more than that. I cannot control any of it. And so it terrifies me. I wish I were.. simply like everyone else.
