For years, Kira had wondered if she failed the academy. She had trained to become a caretaker, yet every stone she awoken the child came out with some sort of problem. Insecurity, anger, the inability to speak, the list kept going. She could help kids just fine, but awakening a stone? It frightened her, now. But, she wanted kids. Desperately so. To the point her chest hurt. She didn't have to awaken them. She could imbue and let someone else (Zenith) do the job. She just wanted babies, and now that she had a stable relationship and a rather roomy home she felt it was time to include children into her life. October was coming, but she'd just imbue and set the stones aside for later.
What could possibly go wrong?
