She walked through the darkened forest, undaunted. All had changed. She had changed. A new light shone behind her eyes. 829Please respect copyright.PENANACmnCeMT2nO
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.829Please respect copyright.PENANAlvc3cVbmL9
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.829Please respect copyright.PENANAUMi75dcJKQ
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.829Please respect copyright.PENANAVyipZkBoRv
The highest elder shouted at her, "What have you done."829Please respect copyright.PENANAVZCP1xGXcR
"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.829Please respect copyright.PENANA2IfgeKUc5Z
Then she saw them, Tanith and Celeste, huddling together. Her best friends.829Please respect copyright.PENANAHG3kwwsd9I
The symbol stood for harmony.829Please respect copyright.PENANAw7mGcKRfmT
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.829Please respect copyright.PENANARszR73rPTM
"Celeste. . . Tanith," her voice was even. "I inherited the gift of The Granter of Wishes. I can help you."829Please respect copyright.PENANALkvdWIv3TD
"How?" the older sister Celeste asked.829Please respect copyright.PENANATkTeOyCQjb
She closed her eyes and sighed, "Wish for something, anything that can get you out of here.829Please respect copyright.PENANAShGztD9vEq
"Okay."829Please respect copyright.PENANAzpeREWdlXu
Her hands began to glow and magic swirled around her, lifting her feet from the ground. Her eyes opened with brilliant white light.829Please respect copyright.PENANAZJJc68k6ol
"I wish. . ."829Please respect copyright.PENANAAFUC9VGBP8
She was wild.829Please respect copyright.PENANAUURogKayDO
