Before

Lysabel

Yineria Family,

We are sorry to inform you of your daughter Surrnina's death, she was overpowered by some watchers on patrol. Sorry for your loss.

Lysabel fell to the ground too, she had been working so hard so they would have a future together.

Lysabel went back into her room, everything seemed so devoid of life now. Her parents needed to get ready for Nina's funeral so Lysabel decided to just stay in her room, she needed to be alone. She picked up the journal she had been writing all the ideas she had for the server and threw it in the bin. What was she supposed to do without her sister? The journal didn't last long in the bin as she picked it up and held it close. She then noticed a note on her desk, she had seen it before but it looked as though somebody teleported it into her room, based on the aura it held it had been a delayed teleportation. It had her name on the front, her nickname, and it was in Nina's handwriting. It read:
Lys,
I've been stirring too much up here, I can tell the generals feel threatened. I know they're going to get rid of me, I can't run though, I know they'll go after you if I do. When it's your turn to fight just know if you show too much power, the generals will have it out for you. To survive, be invisible. Please don't tell our parents. I'm sorry sis that we couldn't have the server of our dreams, but I know that you will do so many amazing things.

Your big sis,

Nina.

More tears fell from her eyes, they had killed her, their own leaders. She couldn't do anything, she wasn't anyone special. She did decide then and there that she wasn't going to tell anyone her ability, she was going to be invisible.

It was a few years after the war had ended and Lysabel started her new position as one of the first council members for the Main World. They hadn't had any new members join, she and Gryff had asked the High Leader about it earlier but she said that it wasn't the right time yet and they would have all 13 members when the time was right, but they still had been very busy. Lysabel had used the plans in the journal from her server in conjunction with the other two council members to create the layout for the city they were building. They had gotten a lot done but they were still expanding out and creating more places for people to call home. The three of them also had another goal of finding any groups of admins and watchers that were stuck in the old ways. Many places called themselves academies and were using whatever spells, or hidden parts of the code they could, to stay hidden from them.

Lysabel was sitting on the roof of their recently completed home and the headquarters of the council, ᓵ||∷╎ℸ ̣ ⍑⚍∷╎ᓭ, she had just received news that her parents had been killed. One of the admins who had been at the final battle who had actually preferred the old days had been angry with her for siding with the High LEader and had decided to get revenge because of that, which is why she was sitting alone on the roof, letting her tears fall down. She didn't really know what to do, she had grown close to Gryff in the past but this wasn't something she felt comfortable sharing with him, and she had kept herself closed off from everyone else so she didn't have any friends, and now she didn't have any family.

"Are you okay Lysabel?" the High Leader said, flying next to the upset admin.

"I'm fine," Lysabel said, drying her tears and trying to pretend that she was fine.

"You don't have to pretend to be fine. It's okay to be upset," the High Leader said, placing her arm around Lysabel.

"I lost everyone. An admin killed my parents," Lysabel said, "I don't know what to do. I don't have anyone,"

The young admin turned towards the High Leader and started to cry on her shoulder, the High Leader held her close. The High Leader said, "I'm sorry about your parents, but you aren't alone. Gryff and I are here for you, and in the future, the whole council will always be there for you,"

The two just held each other close, Lysabel was letting her feelings out that she had been holding in for so long. "Thank you," Lysabel said, separating from the hug.

"Remember, you are always allowed to share your feelings," the High Leader said, "You and Gryff can have the day off, I'll cover everything for you. If you need more time off let me know and you can have it,"

The High Leader left Lysabel to have her alone time, but Lysabel was thankful that she came and checked on her. She was glad she could have people she could be close to.
