The wheel of fortune begins to turn

[Time flies when you're busy. Girl, don't tell her or she'll end up hitting you again..right nobody can hear me]

The spirit watched the usual treatment to Dianorah by the servant who was posing as her aunt. The screams were frequent and the discrimination was total. The maid was angry with the girl for not having cleaned the room and she began to question her

-Useless brat, that's how you pay me to take care of you...for seven years, and...you didn't clean! What were you doing, answer me- fitting his nails on her arm, she asks the reasons

-I was just reading a book and ...- without being able to finish her sentence, she receives a slap that knocks her to the ground

The servant grabbed her hair and hit her again to leave her crying on the floor.

-Disgusting Mudblood, this is not a library, that's why nobody loves you, because you're useless your parents left you with me. Clean up before I come back, if you want to eat today-

The maid throws a glass on the floor, which ends up smashing and leaves. The girl begins to pick up the pieces and cuts herself. Blood and tears fell to the ground. A heartbroken wail flows nonstop, causing the spirit to speak to him but receiving no response.

[I told you not to tell her, better study at night to get out of this dump one day. If Iwas you, I would have stolen everything and I would have escaped a long time ago, there may be thieves or murderers outside but compared to this, all that is a piece of cake] - the spirit tries to caress the girl to comfort her even knowing that it is useless

-I want to go with mom ....- tears flowed incessantly as she cleaned

[Ay Dian, your mother is not dead. If you knew who she is and what she did with you, I think you wouldn't be crying over a bag of shit like her]

Among the many errands that the servants forced Dian to carry out, was to clean the silverware and bronze lamps that weighed more than the girl. In one of those many cleanings, she decided to escape for a moment and sneak a look at the birthday party that had been organized in honor of the young lady and the young master of the dukedom.

Lucia and Ronald Donovan turned 5 years old and to celebrate, the dukes invited all the children of nobles and aristocrats of the region. The crowd was deployed in prepared sectors in the immense garden for greater enjoyment. Dian had hidden in the bushes and was staring at the party in wonder. She imagined another life, one where she was eating and playing with the other children.

Suddenly her left arm begins to throb. She rolls up her shirt and notices that a strange symbol was forming on her scar. She looked like a squiggle of a poorly made compass and was thoughtful. The spirit next to her was dumbfounded and looked towards the crowd looking for something out of place.

[This is bad Dian. I didn't think I would see something like that and out of all those bastards. Thanks to the creator you can hide that crap under your clothes, who knows what will happen if they know that you are a saint. Maybe even the scum of parents you have, try to use you as a pawn] - the spirit was mocking the most horrendous fate that Dian had ahead

When Dian adjusted her clothes, she ran off and ended up bumping into someone. That someone, to her accumulated bad luck, turned out to be the Duchess.

Duchess Nancy looked scared to see the dirty and bruised girl in front of her. She began to feel panic and remorse. The girl bowed down to pay respect to the lady of the house and was finally dragged away by her aunt, who, embarrassed by her situation, apologized. Nancy hit a warning to the maid and the girl, not to cross in front of her again. Dian assumed that her appearance was unpleasant in the eyes of anyone and followed her aunt sadly.

Her aunt whipped her, punished her without food or water and sent her to sleep in the attic of the workshop for her disobedience.Dian just wanted to disappear and between her tears she began to see an almost translucent blue orb that was guiding her down and pointing to one of the so many vans. As if inviting her to enter it, she opened the door and entered. The orb moved frantically to a stop in the glove compartment. Dian opened it and found cookies, chocolates, and a bottle of juice. Today she would not starve and that made her happy.

When she finished eating, the orb went to the back of the van and stood there waiting for Dian. The girl went back and settled better on the empty bags of merchandise. She got food and shelter and that was enough for her. She began to stare at the orb that she was trying to communicate unsuccessfully, so she decided to keep pace with a meaningless conversation until she fell asleep.

Dawn and the van started towards the market. Dian woke up and realized that she had left the mansion unintentionally. The bags served as the perfect hiding place. When the van stopped, Dian doubted if she was going down or not, so she waited for the men to get out first and the orb started her movement, urging her to get down to flee. She ran as far as she could and the orb pointed to a truck.

She traveled for several hours to a nearby town, where she hid again with the help of the orb, which ended up guiding her to an old church. The nuns welcomed her as one more orphan and helped her when she lied that she was being abused by petty thieves. Eight years passed and Dian was already in her teens. She got a job as a maid for a teacher at the Royal Rubins Academy, who trained her by seeing her ability and diligence in learning.

-Nora, could you bring me the Haines books and Price's manual. I need to rephrase the exam questions, this year I'm going to make it difficult for them- the teacher drank his tea and checked the books on the table

-Here's Professor Jones. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I finished cleaning the balconies and I was wondering if I could ..-

-Of course you can read them, that's what books are for. Take the one you like-

-Thank you very much teacher-

The routine consisted of cleaning up early and then having time to read. The orb constantly helped her by choosing books that would be very useful to her one day. She even guided her in buying newspapers or magazines, where she read and learned about the latest trends and gossip in the capital. The level of skill and knowledge of her was formidable that, when the academy gave a permanent position to Professor Jones, he decided to take her with him to the academy in the royal capital.
