The weeks had passed slowly. At first I was really excited to travel but the ship was rather boring. The first week was cool because I was wanted to know everything but the second week was starting to dull. On top of that I had to remain the perfect lady at all times.

The only fun was from watching the men drill on deck I watched carefully as the instructor corrected their footwork the only advantage to my dress was that I could practice along with them. standing with my upper body held perfectly still nobody noticed the shifting of my feet as I memorized their moves then later that night I would continue practicing with my sword.

My sword is a two handed short sword kind of like a broad sword but very short like a cutlass the guards curved to look kind of like wings and the blade was tinged blue and seemed to glow but that could be attributed to my holy powers.

My holy powers as a priestess are uncontrolled. Well they are controlled but by my emotions. I tried to learn how to control them but no matter how I tried they would never follow my direction.

It wasn't until years later when a priestess by the name of Keade passed through when we learned that it was because part of my soul had been stolen that I would never be able to control them again. At least until my soul was returned, but that would never happen.

The best way to control them was if I put them into something say my bow or sword, but I could use anything with silver. But its not like I consented to put my power in the objects, I couldn't control that either.

Most of the time nobody noticed but it always happened, I have never been able to stop it. So when I was fifteen my mother had a special ring commisioned. The stone in the silver band soaked up spirtual powers, in most people it would drain them completly and leave them weak and powerless, but me it well kept me looking like a normal person.

If I didn't they would swell until I would literaly be glowing pink and well it creeped a lot of people out. The use of silver is essential because it left me like a normal human but with concentration I could imbue some of that power into my weapons.
