Carpathian? The only other word that came to mind for Azkadeliah was Powerful. "Oh, right," Azkadeliah said slowly. "So, wait, do you know many spells?"

"A few," he replied. "I always found the magical aspect of our being far more interesting that the combat. Unfortunately it's often the later that's stressed in our upbringing."

"Hmm, would you say you know a lot of counter-spells?" Azkadeliah asked.

He frowned slightly, "It would depend what you mean by counter spells. I can unweave barriers and shields, mind charms, see my way through illusions and other comparable acts."

"What about, say, if someone was accidentally, or on purpose, turned into a bug?" Azkadeliah asked.

Jazz frowned more so, "You mean someone was forced to take on a form?"

"Well, Murtaugh fixed it last time, but it seems like something I should figure out too, you know, in case it happens again." It sounded so much worse when he said it . . .

"You would force someone to take on another form," he regarded her for a moment before asking softly. "Why?"

Azkadeliah sniffed, suddenly on the verge of tears. She sounded like a monster. "I didn't mean to! He just made me so, so mad and the next thing I knew he was a beetle!" she cried. It wasn't like she meant for it to happen. She never meant for bad things to happen.

"I'm sorry..." Jazz said suddenly feeling horrible. He'd not intended to upset her so. He just...didn't understand. At first he could not imagine this woman intentionally harming someone...then he couldn't understand why he was so interested in learning about her. None of that mattered at the moment. "Please, forgive me, I didn't understand...with the way you said it...I was confused."

"I can't control anything! Oh, simple little spells that always blow up in my face!" Azkadeliah cried.

"What are you talking about?" he asked in a more gentle tone.

"My mom says I've got all this talent, if I could just learn to use it. But the more I try, the more things go wrong! I can't even make fireworks work without taking out half the forest!" Azkadeliah said. She'd at least stopped crying. Now she was just angry with herself for being such a bad witch.

"You simply require more practice," he said in the same gentle tone. In a way it was strange, while he had always been kind and understanding towards his sisters, he could not recall when he had spoken to anyone in this manner. He wanted to encourage her, to ease her fears, and more than anything he wanted to see her succeed. "Every great master must put at least sometime into developing their craft."

Azkadeliah sighed. "I practice all the time! But when it comes right down to it, when I need my powers the most, I lose control."
