Year after year, the awakening does take place at the Xeterra Temple. The sa temple where lots of people in the Tuvalon Kingdom got to awaken their power elents, those that had the mana core in them.
As known, every child in the Tuvalon Kingdom was to go awaken when they had gotten to the age of 8 to see if they'll awaken an ability. But they wouldn't just go to the temple when they've gotten to the age of 8, they'll have to wait till it gets to the ti set for the awakening.
So most kids that do engage in the awakening were already 8 years and so months old. And the awakening would take place under a month, so every kid in the Tuvalon Kingdom wouldn't get to awaken on the sa day.
The date for the first awakening was already getting close, and many parents were getting anxious. You know, that sa anxiety, would my child get to awaken an affinity?
Aiden was gonna be taking part in the first awakening as well, and he was so confident. He knew he'd awaken an affinity, he knows he had the mana core in him...but he didn't just know what ability he was gonna awaken.
..As for Aiden's parents, that's Ethan and Emma, they were anxious as well, they weren't different from other parents.
Would Aiden get to awaken an ability or not? Especially, Ethan, he was so anxious, he needed Aiden to awaken a power elent, even if it was only one. As said, he wanted at least one of his family mbers to go to an academy specialized in training benders.
Hazel awakened his main ability, which was the wind affinity, but she chose not to go to any of the academies specialized in training benders...she was learning a skill now. He needed Aiden to awaken an ability and see if he'd agree to go to any of the academies specialized in training benders.
..But the first thing was for him to awaken an affinity.
Aiden was at school currently, and he was sitting in his seat with his two friends sitting close to him. They were conversing, and what were they talking about? The upcoming awakening that had gotten so near.
Both Aiden, Oliver, and Ava were all 8 years and so months old, so they'd all be taking part in the awakening. This was the sa case for many kids in Aiden's class, many of them were up to 8 years old already, and they'd all be taking part in the awakening as well.
..Just that they'd most likely not be engaging in it on the sa day.
But as for the kids in Aiden's class that were below 8 years old, they wouldn't be taking part in the awakening 'cause the mana core in them wouldn't have been fully developed for the awakening yet if at all they have the mana core in them.
All of the kids in Aiden's classroom were aware of the upcoming awakening, and many of them were discussing it. They were afraid if they had the mana core in them at all, if they'd get to awaken an affinity.
..And this was the sa case for Oliver and Ava, they were afraid if they had the mana core in them, they didn't know if they'd get to awaken an ability.
They didn't want to be considered useless, so they were hoping to awaken an affinity. They weren't even talking about awakening two power elents like the talented ones. Let them talk about awakening one affinity each first.
..You'd be hoping to awaken two power elents and end up not awakening even one...do you know how disappointing that is?
Aiden watched how distressed they were as to if they'd awaken an ability or not, and he couldn't help but smile a little. He knew that both of them had the mana core in them, he knew they'd get to awaken an affinity each.
He's confird this since by checking their stats, and they both had the mana stat in their status. But as for the others in his classroom, he didn't know if they'd get to awaken an ability or not, he haven't checked their status before.
"I hope I'll get to awaken an ability, even if it's only one". Ava stated with a kind of distressed expression on her face, a very slight one.
"Yes, I'm hoping for the sa thing too, I don't want to be considered useless". Oliver added.
"The ti for the first awakening is getting near, and my dad keeps telling I shouldn't be too bothered. Even if I don't get to awaken a power elent, they wouldn't consider useless, they wouldn't remind of it,
But his words don't seem to be comforting at all. I still want to awaken an ability". Ava voiced out once again.
"He definitely ans what he's saying. They want you to awaken an ability, but if you don't, they wouldn't consider you useless. They are your parents, you are their child, they love you. But as you said, that doesn't an you wouldn't still want to awaken a power elent,
Even if they don't consider you useless, what of other people? Can they stop you from getting mocked by outsiders?". Oliver stated.
"Exactly". Ava said with a bit of smile on her face, Oliver just hit the point.
"I want to awaken a power elent badly. My parents haven't told anything, but even if they tell they wouldn't consider useless even if I don't get to awaken an ability, I still want to awaken one". Oliver uttered, he just spoke his mind.
Aiden wasn't saying much, he didn't have anything to say, he knew he'd awaken an ability. He wished he could tell them that they'd awaken an affinity or even affinities. But he couldn't tell them that 'cause he didn't want them to start questioning him.
..You know, how did you know that? And those types of questions...he doesn't want that.
So he just kept mute while glancing at them converse. He only said a few things at the beginning of their conversation. But for about more than a minute now, he hadn't said anything.
