The house is clearly a fine one, even shrouded in darkness as it is now, in the middle of the night. Stone walls with fine tapestries, thick rugs on the floors, and a large bed, much larger than the child which occupies it, as the embers in the fireplace glow dully. She's sleeping, but her sleep is disturbed, as she tosses a little, a frown creasing her young brow.
But there's something different about this nightmare - the girl whimpers, thrashes, and then, without warning, a spark erupts from her hand, setting the bedding alight with magical fire. It doesn't take long to wake the girl, who panics, screaming in terror. Before long, there are servants bursting in, dousing the fire as the girl cowers in a corner, knees pulled up to her chest, arms wrapped tight around them, her face tear-streaked.
Nadia is young, but she's old enough to know exactly what this means, what this is, and how her life is about to be changed forever. Soon enough, her parents arrive, her father stone-faced and her mother visibly upset even as she forces her daughter to wash her face and dress - the Templars will be coming soon.
The last thing the viewer sees is two men, imposing in their armor, swords and shields at their sides, arriving to escort the frightened child away in the pre-dawn gloom.
Re: For Kaylin: 10 year old Nadia discovers her magic
Checking really quickly (Sorry! Should have done this sooner, but this trip has been... difficult.... ) Do you want me to have Kaylin crash (litter ally) into your OTA post, or do you want to find her in hers? (she's just crashed into a tree....)
