Beqanna could not stand such a reckoning. It has been through enough.
Her gaze passes over each of them, though betrays nothing. <b>”You do not need me to accomplish your dreams. You know the path, and you know the price.”</b> Of course, many standing beside them would stand in their way. Their dreams conflicted, required one to win out over the others. It would always come to war. Whether in the name of peace, expansion, or simply selfishness, it did not matter. Life always ended in death.
<b>”Sochi, your dream above all else intrigues me. It is different. Tell me, where should we go?”</b> She waits a moment for the answer, before turning her attention to the others. <b>”Lepis, you will be great, I do not doubt it. You may want to talk to Castile.”</b> She gives them both a pointed look before continuing. <b>”However, Lepis, I will leave you with a gift to help you on your journey.”</b> In her usual fashion, she does not say what. Lepis will need to discover it on her own. <b>”For everyone else, you will be given the ability to call an element of your choosing to your defense.”</b>
With that, she disappears, ready to meet Sochi wherever the tiger chooses.

Sochi wins Straia. Go ahead and post somewhere for her for more details!
Lepis, who tied for first (and I used a random name picker to decide) will receive Peace Manipulation (4 spaces): User has the power to influence all forms of peace, including mental, physical, spiritual and conceptual ones, within the land they reside and can extend mild control over nearby lands/others. The user can end conflicts and may be able to help quell wars.
Everyone else may choose an elemental aura (fire, water, light, darkness, etc. - NOT emotional ones like fear). Post in updates if you choose to claim your aura.
