Chapter 2—Lily

Lily's POV.

Lily. Yes, that was her name, though she didn't know it until a couple of months ago....

She was wandering around in the forest as usual, but not too far from her tree house. She had known the forest by heart a long time ago. Every tree, every flower, every bird, every stream...but she had also learned that dangerous creatures reside here.

She couldn't remember how she got here, but she knew that she was very little when she did. The unicorn herd took her in, or rather, saved her. One of them fed her with milk, milk of its own. And she was healthy again, she lived with them, played with the small unicorns, they were her family and she loved every one of them.

Day by day she grew, grew strong, grew beautiful, though she didn't know what beauty was. She built her own tree house, raised her own food, made her own clothes, which in her opinion were just cloths covering where the centaurs told her that needed covering.

The centaurs. Yes, they were her mentors, her teachers, they accepted her, as the unicorns have. They taught her things, things like archery, and hunting; they taught her the ways of humans, their language, and their life; they also taught her about the stars that shine at night, what they do, and what they tell.

They told her that she was a human too, but they told her most humans are bad and that they hope she never have to meet them, for she is too pure, too innocent. Sometimes she couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to be with her kind, to live like them. She knew there was a castle at the edge of the forest, and there were people in it, people that looked like her. The unicorns didn't like her going to the edge though, neither did the centaurs, but once or twice she couldn't help herself and she sneaked there.

She would hide behind a tree and watch the giant castle in the sunlight, it was so huge, so majestic, she'd see people her age, playing in the lake, talking and laughing with each other. She would wonder again what it'd be like to be a part of that. She knew they were wizards and witches, she knew the castle was magical, and she knew too that she was magical.

Until one day, a wizard came into the forest.

He was talking to the centaurs when she came. She saw that he was quiet old, with long silver hair and beard that reached his waist. He wore half moon glasses and behind those glasses were a pair of twinkling blue eyes.

He was surprised to see her, and asked her what her name was. She told him she didn't know, and that the centaurs called her "The Unicorn Child". He was more surprised. He then asked her birthday, the centaurs told him as they've seen in the stars, because she didn't know that either. After a few minutes the old wizard produced a book from his robes, the book looked worn out. He told her to touch the book, she did, she saw hope in his eyes when he started flipping through each page. Then he seemed to have found what he was looking for, and he was beaming. He showed her. On the page, there was something glowing red, she looked at it.

"Lily Evans."

"Yes. Lily Evans. You are Lily Evans."
