Switched

We were born in a time of war in a world full of monster and human like creatures. Like elf's, wolf men, fairies, and anything else you could imagine. My brother/Blake and I were born as identical twins. But we were complete polar opposites. No one could tell us apart except that I was a woman and he was a man. My parents were the only ones who could tell us apart just by our faces. Dad always said I had a gentle beautiful glowing radiance about me especially when I smiled. My parents and brother were mortal. But I was born with wings like birds which made me very special. My wings were snow white. The legend is when a female creature is born with white wings like a bird a new era of peace shall be born and the earth shall become a new. The priest who delivered us said white represents everything pure and good in the world. He also told them that I must never show our wings and that I am to never be tainted by the outside world. Otherwise my wings would turn black and the world would enter an age of mass chaos and destruction. So my parents gave me to the priest that delivered us to make sure that never happened. He named me Faith. He never let me outside the church walls. He always had me prey and worship after everyday and practice the teachings of the book. He also dressed me as a man and called me Raphael so no one could tell I was a woman. My own brother couldn't even remember I was a woman or my real name. He even got a sorcerer make a necklace so no one would recognize me and so I'd look human. My parents still brought my brother to see me everyday since the church wasn't far from the castle. When my parents died suddenly parents when I was 12 leaving the throne to my brother he quiet visiting. I was forgotten. Then I'm my 18th birthday the war had reached our borders and the church was on the border.
