Another day at Hexside, the same old lessons, same old people.
I have never hated it there, however it feels so repetitive, it's "all for the emperor" though. I gag after saying his name, i grab some toast with blood berry jam, my Palisman and fly off to school.

"You know Echo, I've never really felt needed." I sigh "What am i doing talking to my Palisman about my problems, you can't help..."

"I feel you" Said an unfamiliar male voice. I spin round to find the golden guard, I can't help but pull a 'uh huh' face and begin to speed up. "Woah, going a bit fast aren't we?"
"Im going to be late for school."
"Oh well, you were boring anyway"
I slow down at his words, i am not boring. I pull out my flute as my guitar is at school and play a melody, he seems entranced, his eyes lighting up at the sound.
"Wow, that sounds, horrible." The spell begins to kick in as he begins to sway and struggles to stay upright
"Oh...no..no! You..will be...caught..." and he's gone.
That will teach him to call ME, Aria, best bard in hexside, boring.

Upon arriving at school i meet Luz and Amity at the gates, Luz was eager to meet me. She was a human that attended our school, though never having meeting before this, she sure has made a name for herself.
"Aria right?!"
"Mhm, Your Luz right?"
"Yeah! I was wondering if I could ask you about bard magic?!"
"Sure?"
"Ok so-" She rambled on but one question had me at a stand still.
"Can you combine bard magic with let's say, healing? Like you could play a healing song?!"
"I've never tried? I wouldn't know how?"
"Fascinating. If i give you so glyphs could you try when you're free and let me know asap?! Ooh im so excited!"
"Sure?"
—-/ Schools over
Another day at school over, i head to my secret spot upon a hill and pull out the glyphs, i attach one to the strings of my guitar, remembering to bring it this time, and find an injured rabbit, i play a simple energy reviving tune and hit the glyph whilst playing, to my shock, it worked! I could be a healing bard! I danced around and prepared to tell Luz the next day.
—-/ school the next day
"Luz!"
"Aria! Did it work?"
"Mhm!"
"Wow! Ok, I can teach you all the healing glyphs and you can use them whenever!"
Liz taught me all i needed to know and wrote it in a book for me to keep. When i heard this screech.
~~~ 'Hello is this on?- *clears throat* Can Miss Aria Siluye please make her way to my office? That's Miss Aria Siluye to my office'~~~~
Weird, but i oblige and head to the office to find the golden guard? Based on the room's atmosphere and just general feeling, The golden guard was not happy to see it was me and the principal well he looked like himself,
"Aria! How lovely to see you, You are not here for trouble or anything but rather you are being invited to Emperor Belos' Coven to train."
"W-what?"
The golden guard stepped in "The emperor was impressed with your combination of healing and bard magic and had requested you join us. You have until friday to let us know of your answer."
"...no."
"Haha, im sorry, what?!"
"I don't want to join."
"Why? you get 1 day off a year, you sleep in till 6 AM, you even get left alone on top of a mountain and see who makes it down alive!"
"I don't need to tell you my reasoning."
"Fine but the emperor will be most unhappy with this response."
——
The emperor wants me. As if. I play music and heal things whats so great about that. Wait. What if?

Aria enters the closest town to her house and overheard some scouts talking to a wild witch, hurting her. She begins to play a sleeping melody on her guitar and the 3 fall asleep, she grabs the witch and runs to the nearest camp that allowed Wilds, With a strum of her strings she healed the wounds of the witch and fled returning to mark the scouts with a symbol, an eye with a spiral and wings, it resembled the inside of her Palismans ears. Her Palisman Echo, was a Bat and had large ears and wings taking those aspects and designs she created the symbol of her new anti-Emperor self, Symphony.
