When I finally wake up, I'm in a new room. This one is a little bigger than the hospital room I was in. It's also mostly brown, with only two beds in the room. There are three windows on two walls. I'd guess we're in a corner room of a temporary residence. I doubt that Yone or Yasuo would willingly leave the monastery. It's their home after all these years.
I slip out of bed without any issues. I guess my magic has completely healed me then. Honestly, it feels great to feel like me again. In my excitement, I made a few little borealis butterflies. They flutter around me excitedly, though my chest once again feels a little tight. I wince and let the butterflies disappear. My lungs feel ok after that.
I decide to go looking through the room, seeing if Yone or Yasuo are here. If they are, I'd like to talk with them, catch up with what has happened to both of us. They have a mission here. That's rather exciting. If I'm alone, then I can learn from Daamien and Aurora. I need to be able to control my magic, that it can heal as quickly as it does while also using the only necessary amount. That way I can actually fight with my magic instead of relying on Starshadow to protect me all the time. Maybe I can learn how to use magic while he's not near me. It would be nice to know exactly why I feel like I'm suffocating while Starshadow is gone.
Upon seeing that I'm alone, I grab a few pillows from the head of the beds. I arrange them into a nest next to a wall, so I can let myself relax completely while also staying upright. I sit down and close my eyes, concentrating on taking deep breaths in and out, concentrating on going to see Daamien and Aurora...
I open my eyes to look at my magic. I can see why they say that I am capable of a lot of healing, the stream has expanded wider. It's starting to resemble a wide river. I try to find where Daamien's place of residence is. I have to conjure my shadow magic and walk quite a distance to find the hole that connects Daamien and Starshadow to me. Though, the dot looks… ripped. Badly ripped actually, like paper. Magic is trying to go in, only for it to splash back out. It makes me wonder exactly why that is the case.
"Starshadow is too far away. He can't help you channel your magic." Daamien interrupts my thinking. I yelp a little bit in shock. The little bit of time to resettle my thoughts is all I need to think clearly
"That's odd. That didn't happen while I was in Bilgewater."
"... Damn, I thought I had a good explanation as to why. I'll have to think about it." Daamien curses softly. Aurora giggles before creating little… are those flying poros? Apparently, we share similar traits. She sends them to float around Daamien's head. He waves them off with a soft glare at her. "Why?"
We both know the boys are out and about, though they'll check in on her in about half an hour. They've been checking every hour after all. Aurora gently reminds him. I jolt a bit.
"Wait, how can you know that? I thought that you were in my core."
We are Magic. Aurora wiggles her hands a little bit. I can't help but snort at the motion. She's a regal, kind, loving being. I can't imagine her making jokes, though if Starshadow is in here often enough, he might have changed a few habits. That just reminds me that Starshadow is currently being held by a crazy teenager that doesn't exactly keep her promises. Afterall, time did pass between her bringing me to Targon and returning. I really hope I'll see Starshadow again. It's not the same without him.
"Back to the lesson at hand. You did rather well for your first attempt to control how much you heal, but it's still overwhelming. We're going to train you. Ready?"
"No."
"Now you sound like Starshadow." Daamien jokes a little bit. I smirk and pretend to gasp.
"I mean, yes!"
I hope you know that I'm going to be telling Starshadow about this. Aurora laughs. I pretend to be terrified. Alright, time to be serious.
"The first thing about your magic that you need to understand is you have an immense amount of magic… As you can see." Daamien gestures over the golden overflow of magic. "I want you to pick up the smallest amount of magic."
It doesn't sound that hard. Especially since I can see how much I'm grabbing, so I try to follow Daamien's task. I kneel at the edge of my magic and dip a finger into it. When I pull it up, magic twice as big as I am flows into the air, but it doesn't seem all that heavy. I blink in shock at it.
"What?"
The first misunderstanding you have. That is a drop compared to how immense your core is. Aurora pats my shoulder. She reaches into the light and manages to pull out only a speck. This river is a representation of your magic in your body. Assuming you could pull out a drop with your finger is like assuming you pull out a drop in comparison to your body.
"How are you pulling out that little then?" I do my best not to pout.
It's the first time you are really experiencing magic control, Leilah. You can not think about the size you want to get, but rather the intent. Your magic will follow through. Aurora places the little drop of magic back into my core. I try again, placing a small finger into the core and doing my best to imagine what I need it to do…
What do I need it to do though? There's nothing to do here. All I'm doing is pulling magic out. I want a small amount, around the size of a drop on my finger, but that resulted in a massive ball of magic. So, thinking about a physical representation won't work… What will?
"Everyone has different ways of how to control their magic. Some see their magic, see what's the worst that can happen, and know that no matter what happens, they will always be able to control it."
"I don't have that luxury, being blessed to never harm another without taking pain myself. How can you control your magics?" I mumble. I look at the only people who can actually teach me about myself.
My magic has always been a part of me since I was born. It's like knowing how to breathe for me, so I'm not going to be that much help. Aurora apologizes.
"Well… It's been a while. It's hard to remember exactly how I learned mine." Daamien sheepishly rubs the back of his head. I feel my entire face drop.
"Then how am I supposed to learn how to control my magic if the very people who are teaching me can't explain?" I do my best to remain calm, even if I'm a little frustrated.
Everyone learns a little differently. Perhaps you can ask Yone and Yasuo. Or anyone else you come across how they mastered their craft. Mages or healers would be better options, but different techniques can apply. For example, both Mages and warriors have to use their magic repetitively. Aurora suggests. It's not a bad idea, to be honest.
"In the meantime, keep practicing trying to take out only a drop. We'll be trying to figure out where Starshadow is." Daamien turns to Aurora. He picks her up very gently. They cross over the vast amount of magic in front of me to the hole where they begin to take the smallest amounts of magic from me to try and heal the rift.
With that, I concentrate back on mastering how to pick up a small bit of magic. I dip my finger into the light and imagine a tiny, TINY droplet on it. When I pull my finger out again, it's almost like the amount of magic I pry up is bigger than before. Little bubbles seem to float away from the sphere and drop back into the river. I frown and let it back into the river and try again.
Again… Again… Again… Again… I lose track of how often I pull up magic, trying for a drop. Every single time I try, all that ever seems to happen is my magic pools large enough to swallow me whole if I want to. The more I try, the bigger the magic bubble. I scream in frustration and slam my hands into light. The magic clears where I try to hit it, and my fists slam into the surface underneath. I can feel the pain sing through my arms. I yelp and cradle my arms into me. Dammit. Why can't this be easy? Why can't I get this right? I need to! Daamien and Aurora think I'm capable of it. I have to be. I have to be...
I come back to the real world with a snarl on my face. I don't know how long I've been trying to control my magic, but I still haven't succeeded. I know that he said he wasn't going to teach me unless in an extreme emergency for this very reason. Still, without Starshadow to protect me, he was going to. Maybe… if Starshadow came back… then Daamien and Aurora won't teach me magic anymore. I need to get it right.
There's a soft knock on the door. I sigh and try to stand up, though my legs and feet are tingling. I must have been trying for a very long time for me to be unsteady standing up… and my stomach is growling quite ferociously. I should probably eat something. I don't remember the last time I ate or drank anything… My throat's definitely feeling a little dry, now that I think about it… so I go over to the door and open it up… Just in time for a knock to the face.
"Ow!" I yelp and clutch my head tightly. I stumble a little bit from the pain. My forehead throbs a little bit, though it's almost immediately gone. Dammit!
"...Whoops…" Yasuo mutters under his breath. I sigh and wave it off.
"It's fine." I wipe any sweat off my forehead and body the best I can. Who would have thought that trying to use only a small amount of magic would be so tiring. I blink to see Yasuo and Yone carrying bags. I'm not sure what they are holding, but it's probably going to help. Especially since something smells really good. My stomach reminds me rather painfully that I am still lacking nutrients and liquids. The pain is enough to send me to my knees.
"Are you alright, Leilah?" Yone murmurs. He puts down a bag he was carrying. The next thing I know, he's offering me a cup of water. I greedily take and chug the water down. I don't stop drinking until I have every last drop. Even then, I still feel a little thirsty, but definitely much better… even if my stomach is attempting to rebel from getting too much in my stomach.
"I don't think you should be drinking that fast." Yasuo comments. Yone glances at Yasuo for a moment before carefully checking on me.
"I haven't eaten or drunk anything in over twenty four hours. I need it." I take a quick moment to defend myself before going back to drinking.
"He's not wrong. You really should be more careful." Yone supports his brother. I wave a hand over my stomach, trying to take the ease off with a small bit. Annoyingly enough, the ache immediately disappears. A soft growl appears in my throat. "Leilah."
"Just… something I need to practice." I answer lightly. Yone does not look impressed while Yasuo snorts.
"What do you need to practice?" Yasuo asks. He sounds a little intrigued.
"Nothing you can really help with, unless you can tell me how to use my magic." I bite a little bit. The frustration is getting to me. Yasuo holds up his hands slightly.
"Uh, I take it that you aren't doing so well?"
"Not really. Sorry." I let out a frustrated breath. Yone rubs my back a little bit. Yasuo jolts before diving his hand into the bag he's carrying.
"I get the frustration. Learning how to use the wind technique is hard." Yasuo remarks, squatting down to offer me some jerky. This time, I take it carefully out of his hand and naw on it. My stomach definitely thinks it's too much, though I can already feel my magic soothing it. It mildly aggravates me, though with a little food in me, I have an easier time keeping my temper. Wait a minute…
"How did you learn?" I look at the two of them. They look at each other before looking at me.
"You were there while we were being trained." Yone points out. I roll my eyes slightly, mostly at myself because he's right, before standing up to sit on the bed closest to the door.
"That wasn't what I was trying to say. How were you taught? What worked for you to learn what you did?" I do my best to clarify what I'm asking. Yasuo leaps onto the bed behind me with a bit of a windy flourish. Yone rolls his eyes while he takes a seat close to me.
"Oh, my master drilled it into me. If Elder Souma saw me move my sword even one millimeter away from what I was supposed to do, I'd have to do the practice over and over again, until I had it perfectly. Even from the beginning. Learning how to wind wall was tough. He made sure I had the proper steps before even attempting to try it." Yasuo answers. He's laying on the bed with his hands on his head. Yone shakes his head before holding my hand. I can't help but blush at that.
"Mine was more along the lines of learning the right steps, then using it in combat over and over again." Yone informs me.
"So none of you have ever done it too well to the point where you have to backtrack or do without a mentor." I groan and cover my face.
"What do you mean too well?" Yone sounds a little surprised.
"I… the way Daamien and Aurora-"
"Daamien? Who's Daamien?" Yasuo sits up eagerly. He looks like he's getting ready to tease his brother.
"The one responsible for my left eye. Anyway, the way that they put it is that I basically let my magic just crash into the injury. As Daamien was a war healer, most of my magic is more than capable of healing everything it needs too. The problem is that I expend too much magic. For healing a small cut, I tend to just keep pouring extra magic on until it's closed, even if all it needed was a drop." I don't even bother trying to get into too much detail. Magic and swordsmanship are… understandably different. I can't even use Daamien or Aurora for help. Just like everything else about me, I'm different. I have to learn things the hard way.
"That… does seem like a problem. How much magic do you have? From what I recall, you weren't getting sick from using magic last time, just tired." Yone reasons. At least he's trying to help.
"Uh, enough to last being nearly magically frozen for a week, after bringing ten people back from the dead, and then teleporting immediately afterwards? Or I survived being on the Shadow Isles for over a day and being mauled by a monster? You can take your pick." I really don't know how to measure how much magic I have. There's just no real way to determine how. Though, I think I've been missing Starshadow too much. There's no way I personally would have said it like that. Yasuo bolts up while Yone's eyebrows are attempting to join the sky… Dammit, Starshadow.
"Wait a second… you… went to the Shadow Isles… And survived…" Yone hesitantly repeats me.
"That's why I couldn't heal myself when I was attacked by that creature. I had used up all my magic staying alive." I shrink a little bit. Both brothers are staring at me like I'm different. It makes me wish I didn't say anything at all.
"Wow. Remind me not to make you mad." Yasuo remarks after what feels like a lifetime.
"Really? That's all you say?" Yone sounds incredibly exasperated. Still, all tension I didn't know I had fades away. A laugh erupts from my throat. This… this is nice.
Once I start laughing, I can't stop. I do try, covering my mouth and turning away, but I can't stop. Yasuo and Yone bickering is just so… mundane and ordinary. It's like me and Starshadow, but it shows me that this… this is normal. I can be normal for a bit. I could definitely use this to relax. My laughter is apparently contagious as I hear Yasuo start to join in. it isn't long before Yone joins in. We're such an odd group, laughing without a care in the world in our room. Yasuo starts to lean on his brother trying to stay upright. I slip off the bed from how hard I'm laughing and land soundly on the ground. That stops everyone's laughter for a moment, though I start it right up again immediately. I have no intentions of stopping. We laugh for what feels like hours until we're all just collapsed on the ground, trying to breath. Little giggles escape every now and then, but we're done laughing for the moment. The only sound left is the sound of heavy breathing.
"So… Do you… want to… hear what… happened?" I ask. Yone recovers first, slipping off the bed to join me on the ground. Yasuo rolls over and happily hangs his head and arms over the edge.
"So, what happened to you after the Festival?" Yasuo asks. I smile and give in. Yasuo's old enough to hear everything. Besides, I have no doubt Starshadow would have told him everything anyway. He always did use Yasuo to let me and Yone have our time alone. Siblings.
Neither of them are pleased to hear about my first journey to Demacia, with me being tied up and forced to run behind horses, getting punished just for being a magic user. Yone holds me tightly in his arms when he listens to how Marcino died under my hands. He rests his head tightly against mine, trembling a little bit from hearing the massacre that happened. Yasuo is almost hypnotized from the sound of it, terrified and amazed at the same time.
"Starshadow needs a raise." Yasuo comments lightly. I snort in amusement.
"Oh, he's already given me so much trouble for that. Made me give him the best massages and food when we went to Ixtal. I learned a little Ixtali while I was there."
"Ixtal? I heard that they are rather prideful about magic. How did they treat you?" Yone asks, concerned.
"Not that bad. I made a good friend there while learning how to heal. At least I learned how to heal without passing out from doing it over and over again." I start. I tell them how I managed to befriend a princess, Qiyana's issues with her siblings. I can see Yasuo's happiness and gratitude in his eyes as he hears about the abuse the poor girl went through. Talking about being nearly frozen going to the Freljord put the entire room on edge.
"That's how you managed to freeze yourself, wasn't it?" Yone asks when I finish telling them about my experience with True Ice. "You mimicked the characteristics of it."
"Well, Starshadow did that. I… was kinda dead by then." I mumble, leaning my head into his shoulder. He tenses once again, but he lets out a quick sigh.
"Perhaps I should be going with you after this meeting." Yone remarks softly. Both Yasuo and I start with that statement. We stare at the eldest swordsman in amazement.
"Brother? Are you serious?" Yasuo asks hesitantly. "You've been saying that you want to make sure you are completely trained before going with Leilah."
"She needs someone by her side now, from the sound of it." Yone wraps both his arms around me.
"I don't recall you being so affectionate." I can't help but point out.
"If you recall, you died in my arms. I'm not going to let you go that easily now that I've seen first hand just how bad things can get for you." Yone points out.
"But, what about Yasuo?"
"Don't worry about me. I've been waiting for this day for ages. No big brother to get me up at the crack of dawn." Yasuo lets out a happy celebration. I shake my head while Yone scolds him, proving Yasuo's point even more. "Though, I haven't heard anything about the Shadow Isles."
"I haven't even mentioned the second time I was in Demacia." I protest. Yasuo and Yone settle back into listening positions. I can see the murderous intent in Yone's eyes for someone trying to hurt me… again. I didn't mention that I passed out from my magic being pulled out so fast. Or that I was beaten. Just that I was captured and Starshadow helped me escape. Then I managed to grant an audience with the king… and managed to save his life… and was poisoned… and nearly died… I really need this break from nearly dying all the time.
I even tell them that I was a lady of Demacia now, a sworn protector of the royal line. Yasuo, of course, snorts at the irony since I can't choose any single person or line to save, but they keep listening. They listen to me talk about possibly starting a new mage village in Demacia. They listen to me talk about the trial, including when I renounced my title… I really wish I could have hidden the next part… when Sylas… snuck… a kiss… But I would rather it have come from me than from Starshadow when he gets back. Naturally, Yone's face takes on a rather stormy look while Yasuo looks ready to tease him. A quick glare from both of us stops his mouth from opening. I finish my tale of Demacia as quickly as I can, including my denial of being a lady. I complete it with a soft red glow on my face. The magic I used to hold Yasuo's mouth drains me quite a bit. By the time I get to talking about the boat, my throat is dry again. Yone takes notice can grabs another waterskin. Naturally, I gulp it down.
"I told you, Brother. I told you that she was going to turn heads. I told-" Yasuo points at Yone. His face is something I would imagine on Starshadow's when I do something that he specifically told me not to.
"Yes, I know you did. I would like to hear the rest of the story since we haven't heard about how she managed to get on the Shadow Isles…" Yone snaps slightly. I don't fault him. This is precisely what I was trying to avoid… though maybe this is the better option. Daamien mentioned that he could choose where we go, so maybe… Maybe we can choose the safer adventures.
"At least there isn't much left to talk about. The last bit is the Shadow Isles." I bring their attention back to me when Yasuo pokes a little too much fun at his brother. Just the name in itself is enough to get them to stop squabbling. In this tale, I don't have to try to keep Yasuo from acting up. It feels like a horror story. Just saying what happened to me… I feel like it couldn't have happened to me. Everything about it is so surreal. Maokai, the Warden, Kahlista, … Viego. My stomach curdles in my stomach just thinking about it. I don't tell them about my possession from both man and magic. It's too much for me to even think about it, let alone speak of it. Too fresh. All I tell them is that Starshadow valiantly tried to protect me, but I had to grab him and run to keep us both alive. We were hunted down by the mist when we ran into Maokai. He protected me to the best of his ability. He wiped out the mist and gave me energy to teleport to a somewhat relative safety before we were teleported in front of them. I don't try to explain what happened to me while I died. That's… not something we want to relive. At the end, we're simply silent. Yone is gently rubbing my arm in reassurance. I'm not sure if it's for himself or for me. Either way, I take comfort in it. He still cares for me, even after all this time. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, we did last longer last time.
"You are full of surprises. Your blood actually lifted the Black Mist curse?" Yasuo speaks up.
"For a moment. Weird, huh?"
"You could actually restore the Shadow Isles if you manage to increase your magic power." Yone breathlessly comments. And with that, my shoulders feel immensely heavy. I bury my head into him. I don't want to think about increasing magic power.
"Maybe it's not an increase in magic power, but being able to control my magic."
"Well, you certainly aren't going to get anywhere with control over your magic just being in here all day. Let's go out." Yasuo perks right up, flipping over us. Yone gets up normally before offering me a hand up.
"You should probably take a break. I think we can all use some air."
"Well, maybe a break would be nice. I'd like to see how Navori is nowadays anyway." I take his hand and let him pull me up, though he doesn't let go of my hand. Yasuo happily leads the way out of the room.
"I forgot that you were Navori before, with… less than pleasant experiences." Yone remarks. We walk down a few steps that lead outside.
"I go places that need help. Less than pleasant experiences are just a fact of my life. Which… probably means that something less than pleasant is happening here." I sigh. Yasuo and Yone both glance at each other. I shake my head. "Like I said, something is happening. You mentioned a mission here in Naavori. Do you mind telling me?"
"Yes." Yone answers. Once again, Yasuo and I are surprised, though there's a small part of me that's indignant enough to make me cross my arms. I force us to stop right outside the building they are residing in.
"Brother?" Yasuo attempts to ask, but Yone doesn't look in his direction. He's looking at me.
"You just came back from the dead after visiting the undead, while also deciding to try to practice your magic. We are capable of completing it without your assistance. Just use this time to relax. Besides, Starshadow isn't here to protect you if something goes wrong." Yone is trying to be reasonable. For the most part, I get it. Though, when he brings up Starshadow, my indignation grows quite a bit.
"Are you saying that I need to be protected all the time? Consider the fact that I have magic-"
"That you are struggling to control. What happens if we're forced to fight? You run out of magic too easily-"
"I can hold an entire room still if I need to. I've been able to do that for at least a year." I snap.
"I just want you safe, Leilah. That's all. Last time we saw each other, you came back with a hole in your throat and being unable to speak. You worried me. You still do. Then you nearly die in front of me" Yone reaches out and places a hand on my cheek. I sigh and lean into briefly before standing up as tall as I can… Which isn't that much, but I have to try.
"I am not helpless, Yone. Not like I was back then."
"I never thought you helpless, Leilah. You are one of the strongest people I know, but… it's just… Seeing you like that… I don't want to put you into a situation like that. Our mission could do exactly that." Yone seems a little flustered.
"But it's ok if I do that to you?" I scoff. The younger brother takes notice of our slowly rising hackles and steps forward.
"This is our first mission without an adult coming with us. I guess Yone's taking this like a test to see if he's learned enough to come with you on your adventures, and he's determined to see it through." Yasuo wraps an arm around his brother's shoulder. Yone glares balefully at his brother, but Yasuo did help. I'm not as mad anymore, though I'm not going to let this go.
"Yone, if you are coming along with me, you have to work with me, not if you are capable of doing your task by yourself. It's not about keeping me safe, it's about knowing and seeing what is happening, so I can help. I can't just stay on the sidelines."
"Leilah, please. Just rest. Maybe in a week or so we'll tell you, but please remember that we witnessed you nearly die. If it wasn't for Starshadow… I'm sure you wouldn't be letting us go anywhere for awhile until we are completely healed ourselves." Yone points out as we leave the hotel. A few people notice us in the crowd, but we're left alone for the most part.
I really want to fume, but… he's not wrong. Even after I healed them from the brink of death I'm sure I would be demanding that they rest. They're just concerned for me… Maybe I can use that…
"Fine. On the condition that you tell me what your mission is." I raise a finger. The brothers both let out a sigh of relief.
"Navori has been suffering from attacks for a few weeks. Normally, the monastery would not have answered, but there were claims that vulkodalks are in the area. They disappear and reappear without a trace, which is odd because they are rather big creatures." Yasuo starts to explain.
"Vulkodalks?" I ask.
"What attacked you earlier. That was a juvenile." Yone clarifies. I feel my blood drain from my face. That thing was able to knock me onto my back. It was longer than me… and it was a juvenile. I have to take a moment to breath.
"So yeah, we're here to take care of the pests. We've already taken down seven of them. According to the report, there's ten that need to be taken care of, so we only have three more left to collect before we're done our mission." Yasuo finishes cheerfully.
I frown. If it was that simple, I doubt we… I would have arrived here, even for a break. I'm pretty sure something else might be going on. If that's the case…
"Yone, Yasuo!" A distant cry interrupts our musings. We turn around to see a well dressed man running towards us. There are scratches all over his body. Yasuo and Yone are immediately on edge when the man collapses right in front of us, still bleeding heavily. I drop to my knees and try to heal his injuries slowly, like how Aurora and Daamien want me to. He heals up within seconds. I do my best not to growl under my breath as the man stares at himself in shock before looking at me. At least it isn't an instantaneous heal, but I'd still rather not be healing someone faster than your normal healer.
"What is it, constable?" Yone interrupts. The man - constable jerks around to look at the two boys.
"There's a whole pack of them in the middle of the city. They're attacking everyone!" The man cries. My eyes widen and I try to teleport, only for my lungs to feel like they are being crushed again. I actually hunch over and try to claw air into my throat. I have to stop or risk passing out.
"Leilah?" Yone is already crouched down next to me, trying to help.
"Can't… teleport… Need… Starshadow… Go… I'll… rest." I cough out. Yone and Yasuo both nod before racing off. I force myself to breathe a little bit before looking at the man that came to us. He looks at me in surprise.
"Leilah? As in Sett's girl Leilah?"
O.O... Naughty Naughty, Sett. Granted, he is the type to just claim things and if no one says anything, then no one's going to refute him.
So, this chapter is also a bit of a recap chapter, about everything that's happened. It's still slow, but at least this does confirm one thing. Yone will be going on one adventure with Leilah at least before everything goes to hell. We also see that Yone still thinks of Leilah as that girl who gets hurt easily. With how much training he's had, he has his pride. Unlike Leilah, he's never been on a mission without someone to be his sort of saviour. Leilah was literally in a place where it was do or die for her. She knows the importance of allies. Yone, in his pride, wants to prove to Leilah that he can protect her. It's a bit of that pride in a partner that one can protect the other. Yone, hearing about that, makes him desperate to prove he can keep her safe from her nightmares, so don't be too hard on him for trying to keep Leilah out. it's not going to be his first attempt to do so.
There's also a bit of a display of just how magically powerful and out of control Leilah is. Her magic reacts to her, not what she always wants it to do. Ever have those moments where you couldn't control your tempers? That's Leilah in a nutshell. And now, she's going to be practicing.
Well, now that explanations are out of the way, I'm gonna ask for a review here and there because I don't know how I can improve without your feedback. Finally, I hope you guys are having an extraordinary day, night, evening, any time of the sun cycle. May you guys shine brighter than Leona and have the determination of Diana, while also having the kindness of Leilah and the humor of Starshadow, because you readers deserve to be so much more than ordinary.
