(n.)lack of self-control.

AGNAR

Caspian passed out after the professor's great revelation while mumbling about some sort of death. It's been a long time since we wrapped ourselves into a cocoon made of trees. I was feeling hungry and then my eyes fell on the sling bad Aceline was carrying.

"Umm ... Aceline? Do you-"

"Don't talk to me." She said, cleaning her bow and arrow, "It is 6 am and I haven't had coffee yet so, if I do anything to you it cannot be held against me!" she stated sharply cutting me off.

Okay, that was unexpected.

"How do you know it's 6 am?"

"Caelum told me."

Wait.. what? It's been a whole day already and no one told me? Dang dude I missed my beauty sleep.

"What happened"?

I turned around, only to find Caspian floating in the air upside down.

"Okay, don't freak out again but I think you are flying." Aceline whispered

And obviously, Caspian freaked out. The professor helped him get back down and started grinning like a proud dad. This man seriously gave me the creeps.

"I found her!" professor Caelum exclaimed.

"Who?"

"Aceline's mom!"

"My mom died when I was 3," Aceline said clearly bored from the professor's antics.

"How is her mom-" I stared only to be interrupted by Aceline. "Dead mom."

"Oh for goodness sake stop interrupting me. How is her 'dead mom' going to be any help?" I said emphasising Aceline's statement

"She is the pure spirit!"
