She walked through the darkened forest, undaunted. All had changed. She had changed. A new light shone behind her eyes. 685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoImm14QBH
Thira stepped out into the sunshine and paused. There were the gates to the elven village where everything would change. It was now or never. She pulled out a pair of scissors, held them readily in her hand, pulled a hood over her face, and started her march into what was her home.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLjHhIKHrD
All eyes turned to her. She was the center of attention. Stopping in the middle of the hidden town, she pulled off the hood. No one was shocked; it was only Thira. The girl who was just assigned the destiny of highest ranking elder. The corners of her mouth curled up ever so slightly. The girl whose best friend's destinies were to be silent slaves.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pHexyBrlM
Now it was time. The elders were watching her. Thira pulled out the scissors like a sword from it's sheathe. What she did next stunned everyone. A long, white ceremonial braid fell to the ground and blew away in the wind, scattering strands everywhere. She turned her head around to face them, her now short elven white hair blowing freely in her face. Her silver eyes glowed.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2D8DDHVqK
The highest elder shouted at her, "What have you done."685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzLjHaD6SU
"Nothing compared to you." Thira's voice was monotone and emotionless. It was eery. Her eyes started to shift. A symbol formed on her irises. A six pointed shape. It wasn't a demonic symbol, no way. It stood for something else.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HnZLaX3iH
Then she saw them, Tanith and Celeste, huddling together. Her best friends.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5kqtUG8Ec
The symbol stood for harmony.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhetoy1Jjqt
She ignored the elders' cries as she stood up from her kneeling position. Her hand shot out, and a blast of purple magic knocked them over.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe4Y9PWArz
"Celeste. . . Tanith," her voice was even. "I inherited the gift of The Granter of Wishes. I can help you."685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpWEUZ5ryE
"How?" the older sister Celeste asked.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtsO4YsZ8o
She closed her eyes and sighed, "Wish for something, anything that can get you out of here.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9Xk0aNHLz
"Okay."685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24rYYNdL1e
Her hands began to glow and magic swirled around her, lifting her feet from the ground. Her eyes opened with brilliant white light.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ISXwjiJXL
"I wish. . ."685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CxhOgj1cU
She was wild.685Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vglywQ0SF
