Child of the moon
Magic. A ability that has many different capailities and branches within its bounderies. While many of those are known to be able to do wonderous things, others have been known to cause severe damage.
One such example is Divine magic. This branch of magic is much stronger due to its godly origin. The problem is that due to such it has a draw back each user of divine magic has a 'Affinity' that their magic revolves arround. For a example Lord apollo and his Divine prophocies.
Such a prophicy given due to a Divine magic user or seer is most likley going to happen, how it will though is the matter. These Prophocies are never clear cut and simple and are almost always delivered in a way that is only clear upon the happening.
Mortal seers however are different there is no obligation or mandate to them. A person could just as easily ignore the mortal seer as they could follow the prophicy. That is why within the magical ministries there are thousands or prophicy orbs that remain uncompleted in storage just in case.
If a prophicy where to be heard however there was always the possibility of it becoming self-fulfilling.
This shows the difference in strength between the magics. So when the mistress of crossroads brewed the potion of adoption she made sure it was divinely empowered.
The potion of adoption was one that was created in the days of merlin, the days when clan wars where frequent and conquest rights where used to claim the properties of the fallen. So when a young child was left after the war the potion would be used to bring them into the clan thus allowing them to be raised as family.
It worked in a process of controlled mutation (not that they knew that at the time) in a child under five with so much time left to grow and adapt to the process. The potion would first reinforce the child with healing magic, then using blood magic it would start a rapid process of change through the childs genome. Once the genetic changes have finished The healing magic combined with the effects of a subtle touch of the polyjuice potion to ease the process enacts the changes required to the new genetic structure.
Due to the many different effects and stages in the potion it is one of the hardest to make along with the Felix felicis.
So it was of no surprise that when lady Artemis fed it to young harry that he fainted due to the pain of the final stage of the potion. The change.
Artemis was shocked to say the least to find herself doing what she was but she had to admit nothing riled her up like people abandoning children. It was why she had blessed her darling Atlanta. She would always regret that Atlanta didn't want to join her hunt.
So when she had the chance to save this child from those ….things that abandoned him, she lept at it. She had never had a child herself and had always felt like she was missing something. She loved her huntresses like they where her own but there was always something.
So she decided to take the chance even if the child was a male, she could teach him to be a respectible brother to her girls and at the same time she would have a blood child to ...cough ...cough not spoil.
But first she had to solve a few problems like the ability of those things finding her new child. That was when the idea of zoe adopting the child came neatly to bear. It was funny too as she did look like the female version of the childs old father, that would help.
So the child started to morph and immediately Artemis knew something was not going to plan as the child was out cold. But the childs face and body shap was changing, his hair became a deep blood red. She could not tell about the eyes but that was when she realised her mistake and swore.
The child now had two mothers. Two mothers. How could the child be male if it didn't get the necessary dna from a male.
"Well girls" She beamed as she hugged her new daughter close to her. "It looks like you have a new baby sister!" she beamed with joy.
She had a little girl, her own little girl and daddy couldn't be mad as she hadn't broken her vow. The problem though was what to name her as her old name just wouldn't do.
After a few minutes of cradleing the child she abruptly said "selene" "excuse me milady?" zoe asked while a few of the others were confused as well. " ohh im sorry I was just thinking she would need a new name as her old one wouldn't fit anymore." Artemis said with a small chuckle causing smiles. "true my lady so what where you thinking?" asked one of her nieces.
"i was thinking Selene" Artemis nods. That was until she spotted one of the girls frowning. "yes christie?" "erm my lady just selene or will she have a family name?" with a fingure at her chin as she tought " a point" Artemis mummbled.
"My lady thy does not have a family name but I do so how about Selene nightshade" asked Zoe unussually timidly Only to receive a bright smile in return. "an excellent idea. Now I think it has been a long day for us all So off to bed I get the feeling we are going to be in for a interesting few years."
