That night in the Forbidden Forest something eeri was going on. Even more than usual.
A beautiful white mare sat at the edge of a clearing, it's young foal at her feet. The only thing that made this majestic beast more different than other horses was the glistening silver horn decorating it's head. I watched this rare sight with a full heart, not many can witness the beauty of these fantastic beasts without seeing how valuable they are. But my intention tonight was to leave them be and not to destroy their peace with my greed.
I was about to take my leave, when I realised that the unicorn had tensed. It immediately sprang to its feet and took off at a run, it's foal at it's heels.
I stood as motionless as I possibly could.
The air shimmered in the center of the moonlit valley. A silvery humanoid shape began to form, slowly gathering and becoming whole. Whatever it may be it had a cloak which covered it's face and it stood about an inch off the ground, floating in the air.
He was a ghost
Or a person
I really couldn't tell. I was afraid now, unlike the unicorn I had nowhere to run. My only hope was to remain here, silently watching.
My pulse quickened.
The ghostly form had turned to my direction and was now slowly coming towards me. I held my breath in hopes that it would stop, that something would stop it, but it didn't. It kept coming closer. Now it was so close to me that I could see it was a young boy. He had silver hair and silver skin but it wasn't translucent like other ghosts.
The ghost boy extended his hand.
"auxilium tuum requiro" he said, in a voice like silk.
