Beautifully Magic

Thrown headfirst into a cruel and unforgiving world where magic is perceived as the root of all evil, Raelyn is determined to do all that it takes in order to protect her little sister Danica who bears an uncontrollable and innate magical ability. Ever since the first appearance and the devastation caused by Danica's rampantly growing powers, both sisters garner hatred and ill-will wherever they go.

As Danica's budding powers continue to blossom, Raelyn knows it's only a matter of time before her sister's fledgling magic completely consumes her soul, an all too common occurrence that proves fatal to all the young mages who never get the chance to control their gift. An occurrence that Raelyn has resolved to never let happen to her little sister. Even if that leads to seeking help from the most prominent order of mages in the known world. Residing in the magical city of Wilmont, mages live freely, safe from the ever growing threat of the White Knights, a religious order whose only aim is to rid the world of any and all magic.

I bring my sister into a tight embrace, feeling her light hair brush against the bottom of my chin. "It doesn't matter who you are or where you come from, in this world there will always be people that cannot stand the sight of you."

I press my eyes tightly shut, squeezing her little body against mine.

"If there is anything, anything, that I could teach you, it would be this: You are the stars, the moon, and the sky. You are everything that makes you the you that I love and nothing will ever change that."

"To me, you are beautifully magic."
