Having any sort of gift means having a connection with the Balance, understanding what will Balance it and what won't, usually only in direct relation to their own gift, but with some basic understanding and connection to the Balance at large.

[He sighs.]
Unfortunately, neither my sister nor I ever got to experience those conditions.
