Daine listens, brow furrowed. Her frown deepens at the term 'witch;' it's sometimes used in her realm, but not in a very complimentary way. Which is silly, because the Gift is the Gift. It's only evil if that's what you're using it for.

"In my realm, most folk have the Gift," she explains. "They might have a little one or a big one, but it's not bad. Not on its own, anyway. And we don't have demons." After a moment's consideration, she adds, "Sometimes a god can give someone magic they didn't have before, but that's rare. Not many people can survive being a god's vessel." Or so the Graveyard Hag told her, and as exasperating as the goddess had been, Daine doesn't think she was lying about that particular point.
