Melanie had lived white the life, she had been born to a princess light and a king of darkness survived under a tyrannical father, the death of her mother and somehow had managed to attend Magicka despite being of the Von Schatten royal family, albeit through an alias, Dahlia Thompson. During her time she had begun dating a boy from the Le Blanc family - Mathias, and actually managed to sleep with him once. Who would have thought that a lustful merman would be her undoing?
Melanie had ignored the weird stalker for months but had stayed on guard around him.
But one day her guard was thrown off when she discovered that she was with child... Mathias child... Her first thought was to tell her brother, then Mathias.
However... On her way to her brother's dorm was when the merman would strike, he came up from behind her - And Melanie having her mind elsewhere didn't sense the man's presence on time and got knocked out...
The next time she woke months later chained up in a cave - He had apparently put a sleeping curse upon her that was supposed to remain forever... But... Melanie had broken it and since he had not thought to enchant the chains she was able to break out of them too.
Melanie escaped the ghastly place and ran back to Magicka swiftly, or rather swiftly enough for a pregnant lady... Which wasn't really that fast...
However just as she was about to enter the school an arrow flew into her back as she crashed into the gate letting out a scream of terror.
The merman walked towards her ice-sword in hand. Melanie pulled the arrow out of her back and called forth her dark magic shoving the man backwards a few miles but as he was weakened so was she... She pulled herself upwards and tried to make her way towards the gate once more feeling drained of her all magic, as the large reserves she had were used to awaken her.
Ice chains suddenly wrapped around her leg pulling her backwards once more but she shielded her belly and grabbed the icy arrow and cutting the chains free.
However, before the merman could make another attack he suddenly stood with no head.
A darkened man stood metallic fingers seething with the dark arts. To most, this man's dreadful beauty would have been utterly terrifying... But to Melanie it was comforting.
"Bal..." She reached out her hand weakly groaning in pain as said man hobbled towards her.

"I'm sorry sir, she requested we prioritise her child..." The head healer spoke holding a bundle of blankets in her arms.
However, she got no reply only metallic fingers reaching out and taking the small babe from her arms - It was a baby girl, with soft pink hair, and big blue eyes. To his surprise, the child did not cry when she saw him in his darkened form, she reached out her tiny hand and laughed a laughter that sounded like the bells from heaven.
"What did my sister name her?"
"Helisya..."
"Helisya Von Schatten, welcome to the world... Your mother has entrusted you to me so... I shall honour that trust, my dear niece..."
