It was relevant when Cecilia arrived at the battale. Danger was everywhere. She looks around franticly, trying to find the one she dearly loves. When she spotted Auburn hair, she immediately ran for him. "Lucas!" She screamed out for him pleadingly. As if he heard her through the sounds of battle, his gorgeous brown eyes widen in fear. "Cecilia look out!" His screams were clouded as she turned around to see a humanoid wolf hybred growling at her looking it's ready to attack.Cecilia reached around for a weapon but found none. Terrified, she glanced at her lovers brown eyes one last time, right before the hybred tore her to pieces. All Cecilia ever heard was her lover screaming in anguish. "Cecilia!" And all went dark.
Cecilia woke up, gasping for breath. She looked at her surroundings and sighed in relief before she frown. What was that dream? And who was Lucas? Apparently he's a lover to someone. To her? He acted like he really did loved her. She even recalled calling him her lover in the dream. 'Wonder if it's real?' She thought to herself and scoffed. Of course he isn't real. She was only dreaming.
Cecilia sighed before getting off her pod and went to stand in front of her human sized mirror. Her face was a pale white with her dark chest-nut hair curled curled around it. Cecilia glanced at the girls pretty emerald eyes staring back at her in the mirror. 'Is this really how I look? If so then I'm nothing beautiful, no one can tell me otherwise.' Disgusted and angered, she grabbed her brush and threw it at the mirror and watch the glass fall. The mirror was cracked and Cecilia was ashamed of herself now, for this mirror was of her mothers.
Looking away from the mirror, Cecilia got dressed in a simple hunting outfit and grabbed her boots before leaving her little cottage. It was dawn as she tredged through the trees and found the spot by the river. She glanced around for eyes watching but none showed. She digged through the dirt for her bow and lefted the area.

Time flew by as Cecilia looked around for any animals. But so far the absence is worrying her. She couldn't find anything so far besides trees and insects. Just then Cecilia's hair stood on the back of her neck, making her freeze. What's out there? Cecilia shivered as she felt eyes watching her. She turned around but found nothing in hiding. Is it the trees? Are they warning her of some danger? If Cecilia is having these dreams, maybe the trees can give her a hint on what's going on. Cecelia bent on her knees and put one hand on the bark of the tree and the other to her forehead.
Underneath the gentle touch of Cecilia's hand, the tree hums beneath it. It's pleasure showed through emotion at finally having communicate with someone. 'What's disturbing the animals?' She asked it. Instead of answering, it gave her an image.
'There was men on horses fighting. Swords clashing against each other as a boy round her age shoved a sword down a soldiers chest. Cecilia blinked for a minute before she realised the dream she had was a vision. He really is real. The battle ended and Cecilia realised that Lucas, if that is his name, was gravely injured along with his horse nearby. Cecilia pulled away with her mind and patted on the bark, 'Thank you for showing me this.' The tree hummed under her touch one last time before she went into the direction of the injured boy.
Further she goes, teh more she can smell the sweet, metalic scent of blood. Finally, Cecilia found him lying down next to his bloody white horse by the lake with a pool of blood surrounding them. Cecilia rushed over to them and dropped her bow and bag . She digged through her bag and found and old rag along with some bandages. Walking over to the river, she rinsed the rag to make it soaked in.
She bent in front of the boy before gently touching the rag on the gauze on his left arm. As she was almost finished with the cut, an arm shot out and grabbed her wrist tightly, making Cecilia look up to glaring brown eyes. "I can heal myself." Cecilia almost swoon over his voice before stopping herself.
He watched her as she finished cleaning everything up. "How did you know I was here?" He's asking because he knew she was looking for something. She glanced at him from where she was crounching on her knees near her bag trying to make a fire that'll last during the day possibly most of the night. "I have contacts to tell me the on going events in the forest. Apparently your fighting scared off all possible meal." He felt his cheeks flushed at that before looking to see his horse sleeping right behind him. It was also healed, but he remembered the horse being injured just as much as he was.
"How can you heal so good?" He asked. She looked at him for a minute before sitting down in front of him. "I lived on my own for as long as I can remember. If I got injured I have to be able to know how to heal myself, so basically all the healing I did, I learned it." He was suddenly upset for having to ask that question. "Sorry" She looked at him curiously. "What were doing out here in the forest anyways?" She asked. He was agitated about the answer but she was honest with him so he should do the same.
"I was sent out here to look for one Cecilia Maria, considering she knows the forest here well and that she has tons of skills that Captain Joans needs for assistance." His explanation made Cecilia think for a minute. Should she ask for his name? She knows he would ask for hers but really, she'll try to keep it a secret from him as long as she can. "And why does the Captain want with Cecilia anyways?" Lucas blinked at her for a minute, she knows who Cecilia is? He can find out. "He needs her skills in healing some of his men. There will be a war soon and he'll need all the help he can get." Cecilia thought for a minute. So the dream was telling her the truth. She would be with Lucas soon and she would end up beign apart of the war, but should she go along with it?
"I know where you can find Cecilia." Lucas looked at her warily. "Oh you can? Where is she then?" He asked. She glared at him from his tone. "There's a bar near here. If you keep going on that route..."She pointed to the route right by them next to a tree. "It'll take you to the bar. You'll wait outside of the bar near a barn that holds the horses. You'll know it's her." He nodded at her. "Thank you. The search for her will make things so much easier." She rolled her eyes before getting up and grabbing her bag. "Well I got to get going and so should you, if you had that fight not long ago, you would need to move quickly for there might be more soldiers coming. And I don't want the animals disappearing." She said before turning back to where she made her entrance. "Wait, whats your name?" He asked her. She turned around and smirked. "That could be said for you." His shock look made her laugh as she left the river and the woods behind.
