Ablution - A ceremonial act of washing parts of the body or sacred containers
Absolution
She turned slightly to run hesitant fingers though the boy's hair, ruffling it slightly as if she would a child's before the movement changed, and she was twisting the silky strands though her fingers. "I... thank you. For doing this for us, I mean. You know I would have helped you get the necklace back even without your offer to help, I don't know how to repay your kindness."
At her words, his cherubic face turned to her, an unreadable expression marring his delicate features and making him look almost doll like in appearance. "You are my absolution." He stated simply, moving a single hand in random patterns; the water mirrored him as it rose to shape itself to his whim, twisting and twirling though the air. "My atonement."
He then willed the water toward her, allowing it to dance among the flames he'd already conjured, creating a wonderfully choreographed mixture of fire and water for her to marvel at.
"I could not favor you because of your heritage -a god must be just and equal to all- so your returning to me of the necklace was a difficult enough task to justify my actions; I would have helped you reclaim your love even without it though; your despair was so much like a mirror of her own."
