Maybe that would be for the best. This world and the Void are unkind. Perhaps I should try to be just as cruel. Or perhaps I should just give up -- save this world and turn myself over for death. I would inspire many with my sacrifice -- reignite the rebellion that wages across the stars.[17][20]

First, you knit your hand back together. The process is complicated, but, when you remember what your hand looked like, how it felt, how it operated, the fire goes out, and the dust twists itself back into the shape of your flesh and bone. For a second, when your concentration breaks, flames start to spread up your arm, but you regain control of the arithmetic before the damage can spread. With a heavy breath, you flex your pale fingers.
[18] You heal the minor bruises and scratches across your body, and finish patching the hole in your chest. You decide to take a look -- and between your breasts, laterally,
is a line of ugly, pink scar tissue.[8 vs 6]
[16 vs 4]
The Abomination you approach is mindless -- it huddles in the shade against the cold, its twisted parody of a human face turning towards you as you approach. It makes to lunge but stops within its tracks as you bring your will to bear against it. It's a struggle at first, eventually, it stills, staring at you blankly. Its gnashing teeth and cloven jaw working at nothing. You step closer, and it doesn't respond to your body temperature as long as you keep up the pressure of your willpower. You pat it gently, delicately, with a finger.
Nothing.
[20] You thought that freezing something would be much more difficult than heating something up. Surprisingly, it isn't. While your area of effect is small -- its still large enough that you can still the atoms of hydrogen bound up in the molecules of water within the Abomination's throat. You force the formula with your anger-- and the creature goes still as faint frost forms on around its neck. It sways, then collapses, and, with a faint shatter, its head tumbles away.
I dare say that worked well. I can't freeze its entire body, though. I don't think I'm strong enough to literally slow down or stop the motion of all the hydrogen.
