Journal Entry #5599 Her name is Ember. Such an unfortunate name. Who names their child for what’s left over after a fire? Did her mother possibly have a premonition? But no matter. She’ll be protected and encouraged to grow the talent she has within her. She’s not yet explored her potential. Ember must develop her cognitive empathic abilities. She can then predict outcomes, distinguish truth from lies, and see the causes of emotions. She must be isolated from everyone, especially Will Verus. She is far too valuable to become emotionally attached to anyone, unless, of course, it is me. I already feel a connection to her. —Serpio Magnus, Magistrate
