A school seems like a vital thing, here. If there were people with such powers back home, they were only rumors as far as I knew, and rare rumors at that, though more than a few soldiers, my son included, swore up and down that General Faustova could move rocks with her mind. It sounded ludicrous at the time.

[Now, though... that actually might explain a few things about her. While he was not so stupid as to doubt a woman could make a good General, he had always found the stories of the rock slide she had caused confusing. He had served in the mountains, he knew it wasn't easy to just shoot the right part of them and create one, but if powers were involved? Well, Anatoly just felt very glad that the good General was Russian and not German.]

Inexplicably, the file they gave me said I have two utterly unrelated powers: a healing touch and electricity manipulation and generation. If my son were here I am sure he would tell me that's a reference to some mythological or folkloric creature - such things were his hobby - but I see no connecting thread between those two ideas. Nor do I wish to hurt someone with the latter, though I know enough about biology to likely do well with the former.
