She walked through the darkened forest, undaunted. All had changed. She had changed. A new light shone behind her eyes. 705Please respect copyright.PENANApn3PS642b4
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.705Please respect copyright.PENANA97hcFg76Tw
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.705Please respect copyright.PENANAP8ZpAmvG3I
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.705Please respect copyright.PENANApOnLXhzo2i
The highest elder shouted at her, "What have you done."705Please respect copyright.PENANAaBvS7GB85A
"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.705Please respect copyright.PENANAsCYwkeOCaE
Then she saw them, Tanith and Celeste, huddling together. Her best friends.705Please respect copyright.PENANAKFedTiz3Om
The symbol stood for harmony.705Please respect copyright.PENANA9xHFgcD32e
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.705Please respect copyright.PENANA6yRyojvEJ1
"Celeste. . . Tanith," her voice was even. "I inherited the gift of The Granter of Wishes. I can help you."705Please respect copyright.PENANAzE6J5XdPIQ
"How?" the older sister Celeste asked.705Please respect copyright.PENANABDFSgx8TgV
She closed her eyes and sighed, "Wish for something, anything that can get you out of here.705Please respect copyright.PENANAWgccxXzXxm
"Okay."705Please respect copyright.PENANAS1oWb2Gi66
Her hands began to glow and magic swirled around her, lifting her feet from the ground. Her eyes opened with brilliant white light.705Please respect copyright.PENANAlu1cJ21tCz
"I wish. . ."705Please respect copyright.PENANAW30tXx3MNM
She was wild.705Please respect copyright.PENANAPz0j23R2aX
