Iris. Many would imagine the flower or the part of the eye that held color rather than a girl that appears to be seventeen. At least, those outside of Stila, the ancient country that was home and sacred ground to all witches and magical beings alike. To them, the name is that of a savior's. Many whisper about the mysterious girl's strength and powers. With such powers, come tasks that only she can do. As such, Iris is sent to Aneria, a kingdom that would sooner burn a witch than let her walk their streets all to save a human boy from the attacks of demons.
