The human hesitantly shuffled forward, approaching the bars of the cage; face now flushed in light. He tentatively reached a hand through the gap of the bars, holding it there in offering.

”I can show you”

He offered. Hand held out towards the fae, palm up. Lilia hesitated, looking down upon the human’s hand with caution. He didn’t want to step closer and end up getting bitten by the human- But his curiosity was growing. He had no idea of the kind of magic he could use, it could be extremely dangerous. The potential for harm the human could cause was too high for it to be worth it. But, for some reason. Against all his feelings, he pushed away the gnawing fear of the humans potential vices, and took the move to take the humans hand.

Eyes squinted in search for any hint of aggression from the human. Ready to pull his hand back at the slightest movement. His finger brushed the humans palm, testing the waters to see if the human would suddenly snap. Upon finding none, he allowed his hand to slip into theirs.

"You may show me."

Upon gaining permission, he loosely intertwined his fingers with Lilia’s. The two’s hands met, both cold from the chill of the late Autumn wind. The human closed his eyes, taking a slow, shaky breath. A glow began to build, a soft shade of orange, like the beginning bloom of a sunrise. He felt a flood of magic, flowing in between the ridges and bumps of his finger pads. A gentle buzz of warmth grew in his palm, until his hand was a comfortably warm. It was soft, flickering like fire on a snowy night. The human gently let go of him, hand slipping back through the bars of the cell, and he slowly retreated backwards until he was a safe distance from the Fae General.
