"It was prophetic, almost. The birth of a beautiful baby girl under a black moon, the waters of the ocean had been calm, the breeze soft and cool. The small child, left unnamed, cried for her mother. Mirai Blackwood. The daughter of the late Lady Sol and Lord Seraphin, a spiting image of her father- Long, lightly curled raven hair, piercing purple eyes. A single glance down at the child leaves her with a foul glare, one of disgust. The child before her was no better than the beast that is her father. Valor was not a man that she would ever settle with, their agreement was one strictly for power. A few drunken sexual encounters with the man was never meant to go this far, but nonetheless, she was left with the girl. She screams endlessly it seems, the lights around them flicker until one explodes into shards of glass." ******************* A fantasy story, one of witches, demons, and the like.
