A man is standing above a woman with a baby in her arms. The man stares at the child's face, and wraps his arms around the woman.

"She's beautiful." The man says as he brushes the baby's cheek.

"Of course she is beautiful Magnus. A child with my eyes, and your last name." The woman says with fear in her brilliant gold eyes. The Magnus looks into his wife's eyes, and kisses her cheek.

"Maria my love, don't worry. Our child will grow up to be strong, wonderful, and powerful." Magnus says with fire in his eyes.

"Cassidy is only a child Magnus. We do not know if she is the prophesied one." Maria says as the baby opens her eyes for a moment. Maria looks into the girl's gold eyes and smiles lightly.

"I know Maria." Magnus sighs and walks towards the door.

"I love you Magnus." Maria says. Magnus smiles and walks out the door. That was the last time Magnus saw his child, or the woman he loved more than life itself.
