( Get used to me addressing her as Vira in my posts, as well as Crow and Seraphina.)
Vira sat alone in the middle of the rather barren cage, Cav haven taken himself off to the far side as to watch some grazing deer. They were so close to him, yet a simple, inch wide fence separated them from life and death. He growled lowly to himself, obviously irritated.
Now most people would consider Seraphina stupid and blind for sitting trapped in a cage with a growling lion. But of course, her train of though it was separated her from normal people. And her talents, as well. Cav seemed to have no intentions of rejoining Vira in the dry area that she sat upon, instead plopping his mass in a large amount of shade. He released a large yawn, a flopped over on his side to rest.
Vira, taking the time to do something more productive, picked up her bamboo stick. It seemed heavier than normal; even with the steel that usually sat inside out. Since inserting electricity to steel was much too easy a feat, Vira decided she wanted to challenge herself by inserting electricity into the bamboo itself, and making it hold it. It seemed impossible; but the thought didn't phase her. She had been trying to do so for around two weeks, each time producing the same results. A quick glimmer of electricity, and then none. It hadn't been able to hold.
After trying five times or so, each time failing, Vira gave up and reclined back for a while. Trying such a new thing took up a massive amount of energy, trying it more than eight times exhausted her and would need immediate sleep. The sun was hot on her face, which caused her to drift off even faster.
