[In the City]

Fiery (rushing towards Amelia): "Amelia! I have urgent news!"

Amelia (curious): "Fie? What's going on?"

Fiery (in a hurry): "There has been a dragon attack in a town to the south!"

Amelia (concerned): "We must go then. Let's go right away!"

[Before they leave, a stranger suddenly approaches them.]

Random Stranger (pointing): "It's the girl everyone in the city is talking about! The girl who effortlessly carries heavy crates."

[People murmur]

Amelia (smiling nervously): "Oh, it's nothing special. I just like lending a hand whenever I can," she says to the stranger.

Fiery (shocked): "Ame?! What have you done?"

Amelia (panicking): "Wait, Fie, I can explain!" She jitters around anxiously.

Fiery (angry): "What if people were to find out about your ability?! Do you want to repeat what happened in the last town we visited?"

[Amelia bows her head in sadness.]

[A soft voice speaks up.]

Old Woman: "Please, don't be angry at her..."

[Both Amelia and Fiery jump in shock at the sudden appearance of the Old Lady]

Old Woman: "With her help, hundreds of families will be warm this upcoming winter."

[Fiery is silent and visibly worried for Amelia]

[Fiery grabs Amelia's hand and smiles at her]

[Amelia smiles back.]

Old Woman: "I don't have anything that I can repay you with, but please, enjoy this." She puts a cookie in Fiery's mouth.

[Fiery's expression changes from shocked and worried to delighted]
