"You march with the most powerful weapon of them all; immortality."
Morelle pushed the tufts of cotton into her ears, shaking her head back and forth.
No. No.
I will not be one of them.
After watching the horrible army march off into the distance, a quiet knock sounded at her door.
"Morelle, let me in."
Wiping away a tear, the frightened girl opened the door to her chambers.
Her mother stood before her.
"My dear child, what is the matter?" she embraced the girl, planting a soft kiss on her forehead. "You should rejoice."
Morelle shook her head. "I- I am happy here, Mother. I do not need anything else."
"Darling, you will soon see the truth. Our greatest enemy shall be conquered."
She nodded, looking into her mother's eyes. "Where is Father?"
"He is indisposed." said Morgause. "Think not of him, but of us."
"Of course, Mother."
But Morelle, in truth, feared what her mother would think of her. She would be abandoned the moment they knew, become the enemy.
Because Morelle's magical ability was broken. She had tried, time and time again, but it never worked.
"Come," said her mother, "we have a long ride ahead of us."
