ia Estate. It had been two days. Two harrowing days of training, studying and discovery. The

s her grandmother who had been in charge of teaching her Elven lore and some aspects of Elven magic

ing of her education with Kelsey lifting the spell she had placed upon her when she was a child. It was a fascinating

new. And the mere truth that magic existed and that she would be able to use it one day was almost like a dream c

that had grown longer and was now no longer back length but waist length. Her eyes seemed to shimmer in an otherwordly glow and the e

able in her own skin. The explanation had come after Kelsey expounded on the fact that Elves had to use glamour spells

n which will be of no problem in Natus but should you wish to come to the mortal realm, yo

ng faster. They were limited on time and although the restrictions had been released on her abilities, they knew they would need all the help they cou

by her capabilities. The two sparred for hours, enhancing not only Calli's physical abilities but her infusion of magic into all her moves. The young, newborn e

was glad to share the moment with her granddaughter- a moment she had longed for many years. She had done the same for Ira and now, wa

been the last on her long schedule of work and by far her favourite with magic lessons with Kelsey coming in at a close third and sparring a close second. Learning the High Elven L

back when I was oblivious to this life. I know I said that I didn't want this and, for a time, I was kind of mad at you and

gth when my life seemed to be crashing down all around me. I'm still scared, honestly, for what is to come but everything that you, grandma, Kelsey and everyone here has t

tried and failed to keep her tears at bay. Yes, the responsibility ahead of her was grand and imposter syndrome always seemed to loom
