The next morning, the air was crisp and filled with a sense of anticipation. Seraphina and I headed out to the secluded training ground once more, ready to push my limits further. Today was going to be a real test of my abilities, and I could sense Seraphina's determination as she walked beside me, her red flames flickering in her eyes.
"Are you ready for this, Elara?" she asked, her voice both stern and encouraging.
I nodded, taking a deep breath. "Ready as I'll ever be."
We stood facing each other, the morning light casting long shadows across the training field. Seraphina ignited her hands with her red flames, the heat radiating from them palpable even from a distance.
"Remember," she said, her tone serious, "these flames are not just for show. They will burn you if you're not careful. You have to use your wind magic to deflect and control them."
