Chapter; 3 Life

My first memory in this world was being somewhere warm and then suddenly a bright light was exposed on my face my skin chilled by the air and my ears welcomed by the sounds of screaming. "It's a girl" the woman that was currently holding me said in a familiar but new language. The woman holding me was old around 70-80 head full of silver and pale blue eyes.

She handed me over to a woman with dark almost black hair and slightly glowing red eyes. "She's got my eyes" she said on the verge of tears. "And your nose" the old woman added. "If only Adler could be here to see her" the woman who I assumed was my mother said. The old woman took me into her arms again and said "come now little one, mama needs to rest". She carried me out of the room and swaddled me before laying me down in a wooden crib.

The days after that day were much the same eat, poop, sleep, repeat. I learned that my mother's name was Erika, and my fathers name was Adler, the old woman who had helped with the delivery was Valerie my grandmother. I had an older brother named Ivan and I was named Christina.

We lived in a large cabin in the middle of the woods. My mother was a magic user and magic apparently really common but most people could not do anything meaningful with. My family was different. My father was part of the magic guard that protected the kingdom from monsters and other kingdoms. My mother had also used to be part of that group but sincere she had my brother she retired from her job to take care of us.

Magic showed up in the human body at the age of 4 and one can show signs before that age. People with magic are treated like the high society the stronger you are with magic the more wealthy and power you had in society. My family could have a lot more wealth and power because of the strength that they had but they decided to have a quite life and put most of the money they got into an account for later use.

The days and months turned into years until finally I was three. That was the age where my magic first started to show itself to me and those around me. I didn't really know what was happening but I could feel my body heating up and and some type of energy coursing through me. I was outside playing with my brother when suddenly the dirt turned to swans and started to move around me.

"Mom Christ has magic, look!" , my mother came running outside of the house to come and see. She was so excited she even started to cry. She was blessed with two children with magic and strong magic at that. My brother had showed his magic two years before I did when he was 3 he had fallen from a wooden post and used air magic to keep himself from getting hurt. Things went like this for a while longer no one had any idea of the hard times that were coming ahead.
