Just The Beginning
The sun just started to rise above the horizon, the bird start chirping and fluttering their wings as they got ready for their morning flight. Everything seemed peaceful but as just moments passed a young women was running through the dense forest, small animals dashed out of her way and birds flew away as she ran. The sound of a ground of bandits chasing after her. She picked up her pace and headed towards the dense part of the forest where no path had been formed. She quickly hid in a small cave, big enough to fit a medium dog but it was however covered with vines. She was able to hide herself just as she started to hear the bandits get close and ran pass her. Just when she thought it was safe and tried to move she heard another set a foot steps. She stayed still and covered her mouth. “ I won't harm you, I am not one of them.” A males voice chimed gently. The foot step grew near then stopped right in front of her where she saw only the lower half of his body. 'Could be a trap...' she thought to herself but not even one second later he turned sharply and cut the vines like they were butter, revealing Zoe's horribly shocked face.

Captured Raina was born into the world filled with magic, her mother an elemental being and father father a powerful sage. They both taught her of how powerful she was and how she could control and learn of her abilities. They kept hidden in the mountainside far away for villages so know one would learn of their daughter. Unfortunately things can not stay hidden for long and when she was just fifteen the Emperor they served had known for some time and demanded their daughter when they refused, he ordered them for execution. Yana was a young lady then and knew if her parents didn't want her working for anyone so she ran but she swore to avenge her parents death when she was strong enough. After that she moved around from village to village helping the needy and the poor, she even helped defend villages from raiders and bandits that tried to attack. Though she never got close to anyone, she lived solely on her own and did everything by herself, only making friendly conversation with people when it was needed.
She had recently moved into a new village, 'Berndiens Edge'. The name came from the man who built the village, the leader who they looked up to and had a very specific rule that passed down his generation who because the Leaders for the village through the years. This village not only had one but many main trading stations for ships with goods that came in to dock for the region. She's heard this village has had some pirate raids here lately, so she came to stay for a short while and try to make everyone happy. She started to learn about the people, talking with them and making a few friends. Before she knew it months had passed by and she had taken a liking to the village, she even had a crush on one of the locals though she would never admit it.
It was a normal day in 'Berndiens Edge' everyone going about their normal lives, getting groceries, children playing with one another and business meetings held in the local bars/cafes. It was a good day except when all hell broke loose. Pirates had docked into the trading port and started wreaking havoc on the village. Emma knew she couldn't just stand there so she took a chance to stop the violence when the Captain of the pirates showed up.
She made the biggest scene, wiping his crew all together with a giant wave of water and slammed them into walls making a clear path for the captain to see her. "I'm more valuable than anything this village has....Take me and spare the village...You don't, you and your men will be swimming with the sharks..."she threatened as her blue eyes glowed softly. The captain just nodded and pointed at her. The men quickly got her into chains and pushed her onto their ship then to the bottom of the ship where they kept prisoners. Now captured she had to do something to free herself from this ship as they used cursed chains which made her powers useless, but all she could do was wait until she spoke with the captain. ((new))
