and focus on your breathing. Slow it down and concentrate on the in and out of it. When you feel something let me know,” he replied.
    I focused on my breathing. The way my body took air in and expelled it was amazing. When I truly paid attention it was miraculous. Then I felt a surge of energy entering my body from the ground. It was warm and tingled.
    “I feel it.”
    “Describe it to me?” he asked.
    “It’s warm and it is spreading through my body.”
    “Good. Mother earth is sharing herself with you.”
    “It feels fantastic.”
    “Absorb some more and then we will move,” he said.
    “Okay.” I took in a few more breaths then opened my eyes.
    “Now we are going to move.” He took my hand and led me to a circle. He spoke a few words and the pit erupted with a fire. “Now we will repeat the process.”
    Once again I felt warmth and tingling all through my body. It filled me with passion and ardor. I wanted my husband strongly then. He told me to hold on to the feeling and he would quench it later. Then we moved back to the pool we swam in. The process here felt cool and invigorating, but powerful. Lastly we stood and simply breathed. The air in my lungs was potent and made my skin feel alive.
    “Now you have absorbed power from all the elements. I think that is good for today. Tomorrow we will test your skill,” Tomlin said, kissing my lips.
    “Riona.”
    “Yes?” I said.
    “I didn’t say anything,” Tomlin replied.
    “The woman is calling to me again.”
    “Then answer her.”
    “I am here,” I replied.
    “You have one month before I arrive. Riona, be ready.”
    “I will.”
    “What did she instruct?” Carolyn asked. She had run from the porch when she realized what was going on.
    “She said I had a month and to be ready.”
    “Then we should really work hard for the next thirty days. Hopefully tomorrow I will be at full strength,” Carolyn said.
    “For now we are going to retire,” Tomlin said, taking my hand.
    “I think I will go for a swim for about an hour?” she questioned.
    “That sounds about right,” he said with a smile.
    “Is this some kind of sibling conversation?” I asked blissfully unaware.
    “She doesn’t want to be in the house while you and I make love,” Tomlin answered matter of fact.
    “Oh.” I felt stupid for even asking. This entire love making thing was new to me. I’m sure eventually I will get the hang of it. Tomlin took my hand and led me into the cabin. He opened the door and closed it quickly. The rest of our night went by loudly at first and then quiet. We shared our bodies with intensity until neither of us had any energy left.
     
    “Wake up, my love.” Tomlin was leaning over me gently stroking my hair. I stretched out my naked body willing it to come to life.
    “It’s early,” I yawned.
    “We need to start training.”
    “Okay.” I sat up and made my way to the closet. I put on a purple gown and headed to the outhouse. I used it and went to the river. I splashed my face and ran a comb through my hair. When I was satisfied with myself I went back to the house. Carolyn had breakfast all laid out on the table. It smelled lovely, though I don’t know how she had time to fix it all. I sat beside Tomlin and ate until I was full.
    “This was lovely, Carolyn.” It dawned on me then there were no cooking utensils and no fire going. I gave her a quizzical look.
    “You will learn to conjure anything you wish. It’s simple once you get the hang of it.”
    I closed my eyes and thought of a hot cup of coffee. I focused all my energy on it. When I opened them there was a steaming pile of hot coffee headed toward my lap. Tomlin and Carolyn sat there and laughed. I scooted back quickly. Then the coffee was gone.
    “Well that didn’t go as planned,” I said.
    “I guess not, but it was a good try.” Carolyn could barely contain her laughter.
    “I can’t believe you even did that much with no training. You must be powerful indeed.” Tomlin
