I was walking down the stairs fairly early in the morning, about the time everyone wakes up to eat breakfast. I covered my mouth as I yawned and stretched my arms into the air. Then, I heard a knock at the front door.
'Who could that be?' I thought to myself. 'No one ever comes to visit the mansion…' I jumped the last few steps of the stairs and quickly made my way over to the door. I was slightly confused once I opened it.
No one was there. I leaned my head out the door and looked left and right. No one was in sight. I pulled my head back in and was about to close the door until I heard a slight shuffling at my feet.
I looked down. There was an old basket with… a little baby wrapped up snuggly in a light blue blanket. The baby was sound asleep. Then I saw a white piece of parchment on the blanket.
I picked it up and started reading. "I am sorry if my darling little boy Mage is a burden to you, but I have no where else to leave him. It hurts me so to do this, but I need to put him in a place where I am sure he will be taken care of. I will be back for him as soon as I can until I get enough to take care of the both of us."
After I had finished reading, I looked down at the little boy's face. It seemed like there was a sense of pure innocence around him. He had a full head of blond hair. It made me wonder what color his eyes were.
I sighed and picked up the basket. I couldn't take care of this little guy alone. 'I think I'll ask Marth and the girls to help me. I don't know if anyone else will agree with helping me.' I went inside, closed the door, and headed back upstairs to the room I shared with Marth to tell him the new news.
