Over the years tales were told Astrid like her siblings was given a name, Klaus the hybrid, Rebekah the first, Elijah the noble not that she understood why to well in the end he tended to break many more deals and promises then the rest of them combine. but the other three were a bit different Finn had no name as he had been mostly locked in a box, kol was know the homicidal maniac but that was due to there other siblings calling him that. And Astrid, she was know as the silent one a name that fit her well. They were creatures of the night, and as such they became dark, Killing dozens to hundreds to thousands. She grew into her darkness it suited her but she never let it take over her, let it control her. Yes there is darkness in her but it will never own her.
She hadn't changed to much still love to learn anything and everything she could, studying every language she could, learned to play almost any instrument, she love figuring out math and science. She also for some reason she took quite a joy to fighting, learning to weld swords and axes, became quite the archer and was very impressive in hand to hand combat. After all she had all the time in the world to practice. And reading story's in her dreams not that she knew the palace she visited so often was truly real.
Her and her brother and studied every type of magic they could find over the years. From different spells, different types of creatures, different religions of magic, different gods and spirits. As they were much more respectful of magic and knew when others(like some gods of other beings) were higher then them, they showed respect. They had met many beings Apollo, some centaurs, Selene, and Death.
Meeting death was interesting because it wasn't with any of the thousands she'd killed, it was the first time someone was able to stake her in the heart in 1216. Not with a white oak stake of course, death was slightly confused of why her soul was refusing to truly leave its body. Until she realized who it was.
"Oh wait your one of those magic immortals" death asked her.
Astrid gave a nod with a curious look in her eye. "Your death aren't you" she asked somehow just knowing.
"Yes I am, it's nice to meet you" she responded kindly. Death stuck out her hand to shake, and Astrid shook it.
"Your different from what I imagined" Astrid told her, this made death frown a bit clearly thinking she was assumed to be something bad and terrible. "Nothing bad" she corrected "I don't exactly know what I was expecting but I quite like this" Astrid smiled at her.
"Thank you, you are very kind" she turned to the side as if she was hearing someone call her "I have to go but do you think we could meet up for tea sometime?" She asked with hope in her voice "I mean I know im not going to have to truly come for you"
"I would love that" Astrid excited responded. Now from every few dozen years to a hundred or so depending on if any war's or plagues going around, they would meet up for tea and chat, and share. Unknown to Astrid it was the great idea for a bet.
Threw out the years every time she got close to one of Ayana's descendants something would happen to them before she could even ask if they would help undo the curses that was put upon her.
Unknown to here Elijah would destroy every chance for her to do this, if there brother couldn't be free of his curse why should she.

"Kol are you sure this is a good idea" Astrid asked him.
"Yes my dear sister, our brother needs to be taught a lesson" he answered moving about and around the table "and with this diamond we will finally be able to dagger him" he looked at her holding the diamond in his hand showing it to her.
"And then we can wake Finn, your right we need to do this" she decided looking at him "the spell we'll need for this will require 2 witch's and of course it can't be made with silver" she said picking up a spell book off the table and flipping threw the pages
" I happen to be 1 step ahead of you sister" kol retorted while holding a golden knife out to her "only the best for our dear brother" he smirked
"Oh you've out done your self" she giggled, gazing at the knife in her hands. " now we just have to wait for the full moon to do the spell" she looked up at him "and your sure your witch's are willing to do this"
He scoffed at her " have I ever let you down?"
"Um I can think of several different time when you failed to do your part" she told him in slight jest. She listed up her hand to start listing them off as kol started
"Alright alright I get it" rolling his eyes, as Astrid started laughing. He put the jewel in his pocket "now come on we best get back before anyone gets to suspicious.
The two of them went on there way back walking arm in arm as he told her about the two witch's he had to do the spell one named Anna and the other named Freya. Both very lovely girls kind enough to help them, she told kol how excited she was to meet them.
"We'll your in luck im bringing one of our lovely ladies tonight" he confessed.
She gave a small gasp "which one?
He gave her a small smirk tapping his chin "hmmm I think I'll leave that to be a surprise" they approached the house and let go of each other "I'll see you tonight Astrid" he said with a wink.
"Can't wait" she answered with a small smirk of her own.
Astrid went off to start getting ready for the party just a few hours later with the help of one of her maids. She wore a ruby red dress that was mostly made of tool, the top was off her shoulders with bunched up tool that made it look like flowers, a small beaded belt that looked like little jewels and a cross laced back.
"My lady you look like a dream" her maid Grace told her with a smile as they were both looking at her in the mirror . Grace Colbert was a women who was physically about 6 or 7 years. A very kind women who always made sure to tell Astrid when the town got new book, as she lived next to the bookshop.
"Thank you, you are too kind" Astrid replied back "oh but what have I told you Astrid is just fine none of this my lady business" she informed grace. Astrid always liked Grace and she knew she had 2 little children at home so she made sure that Grace never got in the way when ever one of her brothers were throwing one of there tantrums.
"Oh sorry I forgot, Astrid" she said with a smile "now come on the party's starting" She said with some excitement in her voice.
"Oh wait I have a Christmas present for you Grace" she walked over to her dresser and picked up a small box and walked back over and handed it to her. Grace took the box from her with confusion and opened it to find a gorgeous necklace inside made with a dark metal chain and a blue stone.
" oh Astrid, I can't possibly take this" she gasped looking up at her with slight tears in her eyes trying to hand it back to her.
"Oh yes you can" she informed her with a firm voice. Grace knew Astrid was not one of many words but when she did say something she meant it. "The stone is called kyanite, it's for vivid dreaming and changing your hopes" she added "and it's been charmed to protect the wearer"
"I don't know how I could ever thank you for this" Grace cried Astrid whipped a tear from Graces face.
" you can thank me by" she walked back over to her dresser picking up two more wrapped boxes "going home to your family and giving these to your two precious children for me" she handed Grace the boxes with a large smile.
"What i can't this is already to much" grace tried to give them back.
"Oh pish posh your my friend" she smirked " it's Christmas Eve and you need to get out of here and back to you family, tell them I say merry Christmas" she walked them over to the door before Grace could even get another word in "now you get home safe, I have a party to get too" she gave her a wink and was about to walk away when Grace pulled her in for a hug.
"Thank you Astrid" she whispered into her ear. Then pulled back Astrid gave her a smile and started walking down the stairs.
Astrid knew this was going to be a Christmas to remember, and it was just not in the way the expected.
