The talk with Darien gave Kurt a lot to think about. Apparently, he wasn't even what he thought he was, or was yet. It must have been that red aura he could tap into sometimes just not very well. It seemed to come out when he needed stress and adrenaline. When Kurt was in a battle his mind would lock into a flow sometimes that's when he felt it most.
If there was a seed that needed to bloom, how would that even work? It obviously was some metaphor for it but Kurt didn't know where to start. He thought he was strong and Lich explained to him that wasn't very true at all. A dragon, snakes, and spiders large enough to see humans as food.
"So what are we going to tell them?" said Talia.
"How about the truth this time?" said Kurt. "The True sorcerer came up in conversation and Darien apparently was also looking for him. The news from Castle Bright Flame seemed to make him go off."
"I guess that works leaving out the parts about you?"
"Yeah."
