[She snickered and nodded.] I grew up around magic and witches. The lore of druids was something that was normal to me, and I lived among the fae, so I don't think I ever had the chance to become as scared as someone from outside that life could be.

But I guess that makes sense. It's like being afraid of someone with a gun. The first time you hear it go off, it's terrifying, and seeing what it can do even more so. If you don't know as much about it, and Druids keep their secrets close, it can be scary.

...and like you said, a kid with a gun's a scary thing on its own.
