Her lack of control led to a deep-seated fear of her own powers, which was so intense that she considered it a relief when magic fell and she no longer had to fear herself. She could shift between forms quite easily, though her fire control was less than exemplary. Aelin's Fae heritage manifested itself at an early age. While some people expected her to marry Aedion Ashryver, her cousin and confidante, to solidify the family's claim to the throne, Aelin found the idea laughable, outrageous, and disgusting, because after all, she considered Aedion to be her brother, and Aedion felt the same.
