In a small town called Colddale, a young mage was practicing when her mom called her in for supper. 

"Did you hear? The king may have a new knight. And the youngest ever." 

"Is that so dear? Go get washed up and get your sibling for supper will ya?"

"Yes ma."

With that Estrea walked to her room and putt her cloak away. She walked into her brothers room to hind them messing with her staff.     

"What do you two think you are doing?"

They dropped the staff and ran out the room. Estrea grabbed her staff and went to putt it in her room. When she walked in a small grey owl sat in her window.

"Why hello young one. How may I help you?"

The owl held out a letter. The letter was light tan paper with a wax seal.

"Thank you. You may go now."

The bird flew off and Estrea sat to open the letter.

Dear Estrea,                                                                                                                                                                               It has come to the kings attention that you have been able to master some of the hardest spells. the king wishes that you come to his castle by the third Tuesday. please do not be late.                       - Sir Folwin

She ran down the hall in disbelief, the letter in one hand her staff in the other.

"Mama, Papa, you will never believe this. The king Ishan wishes to see me."

"What? That is great my dear, but why?"

"He wants to see my abilities with magic."

"See I told you all that practice would pay off. Now let us calibrate. my daughter is going to be a royal mage."

they walked out of the house smiling and laughing.
