Well, that's good.
-my expression darkens slightly when she asks me-
Me? Well, I was born into a....... Shall we say abusive family.
When I was 10, I knew I had to leave or I would die.
I lived on the streets for years, stealing or scavenging what I could to survive.
All until one day......
I had just gotten a good haul. Some gems from a nobleman's house.
I was on my way to fence them, when a gang of other children jumped me and stabbed me, leaving me for dead.
At that moment, I felt a warmth flow through me, healing my wound. I now know that was light magic, coming through.
I was later found and adopted by a wealthy old man, who had lost his son in the war.
He taught me all I know about sword fighting.
There was also a lamia who lived there. Sahra was her name.
She was a close friend of mine, and when I was sent here, she said she'd find a way to come here to help. Still haven't seen her, though.
-my expression brightens-
But that's in the past now.
Come on!
-I lead Jane towards a tower that appears abandoned-
This is the old astrology tower.
Even on the brightest day, one can see the stars from the observatory up top.
I'll show you!
-I guide Jane up the tower-
They do upkeep on this tower, so we'll be fine.
