Necromancer [4]

It was a cold day. 

Just like it usually was. 

Ellnor was a city located high above sea level. The cold weather was something that Aurelia was used to by now. 

"Here, wear this. It's getting cold." 

She had a younger brother. 

He was about to turn ten in just a few months. Aurelia herself was only fourteen, but she was talented in the field of magic. 

It was her talent that allowed for her and her brother to survive in the treacherous conditions. 

The two of them had no parents. They had died in an accident a few years prior. It was up to the then twelve-year-old Aurelia to take care of her younger brother. 

"We've noticed a suspicious mana wave quite far from the town. We're thinking of creating a small squad to check the situation out. Aurelia, you're a mage. What do you say? Will you go? The pay will be good." 

"Me?"
