Dylan gritted his teeth, willing himself to stay focused despite the growing fatigue. He sensed the woman beside him guiding the flow, her own energy a steady, calming presence. Together, they directed the chaotic currents, slowly stabilizing them and redirecting them back to the boy's core.
Seconds stretched into what felt like hours, but finally, the child's convulsions eased. His body relaxed, the violent shaking subsiding into gentle tremors before stilling altogether. Dylan opened his eyes, meeting the woman's relieved gaze. They had done it.

"Thank you," she whispered, her voice thick with emotion. "You saved him."
