Zain
The sly creature turns his back on his son, pulling the twins apart as planned with a hidden grin. Vic was smart, too smart for his own good. The boy was nowhere near as malleable as his sister, time apart is just what they, he, needed.
They walk a distance; his eyes rolling back to find the filly glancing back at her brother. He decides it best to distract her with chit chat and he very much wanted to hear of what other powers she possessed. "What was this you were saying about wings?" Clearly, she wore none like the many winged things of the sky. The inquiry is enough to put a spark back in her eye and a bounce in her step.

As they near the tall flat he turns to where the incline meets the ground. He notes she is entranced by the structure, curiously asking what it is.

He inches closer to the edge, leaning towards the open air. W-what are you doing? She stammers as she watches anxiously, her flames wicking across her body even higher. "You can do anything if you believe in yourself..." He leans even farther before gathering his legs beneath him and leaping into the dry air...
