The winds were howling in that night, rushing around between the trees, only being silenced by the even louder rain which these mountains have seen many times. There was a cabin in these woods, standing all by itself. In this cabin lived a woman, some might say she was a witch, but I do know better, Lady Kazhan was above things such as magic. Every lucky fool with the right bloodline can learn how to throw around a fire ball, it takes hardly any skill or training. But she herself wasn't such a fool and in her eyes better for it, who doesn't learn for power doesn't deserve it. That was the idea she lived by, so she started to learn a art which a view have practiced before in her family, but non where as close to mastering it as she was, she would choose to practice the forbidden arts of alchemy, she was a young woman back then, smart yet so naive, "helping people surely will convince them that it is a benefit" she thought, but no the churches seemed to disagree and hunted her away. She had no choice but to live in the woods, there she was save, they would not dare to cross into those woods.
She would soon come to see that here, she could do anything without being bothered.
