Arron's child was an only child, a boy who studied magic as much as he could from a young again. Child of a seventh born sometimes had very special powers. This child had very special powers indeed and he planned to study about it. He was a protege for his young age and could understand things at an high level as he grew up this showed through.

He was kind and cheerful, is what the people in town told his father. Yet on some days he could be distant but over all friendly with his nose in a book. He loved playing games and he loved reading books all day they told his father.

This child would ask questions and very intuitive, he liked to think of all outcomes. He likes laughing and is engaged in whatever game we give him.

He was an only child all alone in the big manor. Yet he still turned out to be the out going ball of energy. He was smart, on days like this he studied. Keeping his head low and not looking at anyone. Yet when he came down the same way later he seemed to be happy and greeted everyone. 

He was a strange child, some of the kids kept their distance when he looked at them in the mornings. Yet in the afternoons they were all playing together and laughing. Almost like he had a split personality.

He was a curious child also, exploring whatever you could as many times as he could until he understood it. Often going back to the same place four times just until he went off to do the same to another. Watching people and talking to them. Getting to know why they did what they did, and what they liked to learn.

Arron never gave the reason at to why his child acted this way. He himself never knew why either. He could swear at times the boy knew his house better then him. His two favorite places were the Library and the Lake outside the house. He could move fast to get to either.

The man himself thought his child was just as gifted as he thought. Having learned potions fast talking to himself in the library to better understand. It was often cute how the boy would taste something and say 'yuck' if it tasted bad then laugh it off a few seconds after.

His only child was an enigma but he knew he was destine to do great things. His outgoing yet intuitive child.

Who would have ever thought such a child would get into dark magic. 

Who would have ever thought such a child would be afraid of such magic also.

Who would have ever thought such a child would grow up to hurt others.

Who would have ever thought such a child would be afraid for himself.

No one really did, that's the strange part isn't it?

After all he's only one child, yet he's such a strange child.
