A/N: .......sorry?

NOT SORRT BITCHES I STARTED ANOTHER STORY 

VIVA THE RESISTANCE I SHALL NEVER STOP BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

~~ 

 I lounged against the wall, watching as the woman, dressed in fine velvet ushered her daughter into a chair. 

"Will you tell me a story?"

The woman laughed softly, deepening the lines of her mouth, "and what kind of story?"

"The one you told brother, about magic."

The mother seemed to hesitate, "and how do you know of this?"

"I heard brother talking about it with father. I wish to know too!"

"But dear your brother is to be king, tis why he was told. so he would better understand."

"but mama!"

She laughed lightly, "very well very well." She picked up a brush and began to run it through her daughters hair, "They say that before you an I had ever existed there was a kingdom and within its borders a world of magic."

"And what happened to this kingdom Mama?"

The older woman hummed softly, braiding the childs hair with gentle fingers, "The kings and queens of the surrounding realms saw danger in this kingdoms residents, for you see, it was the only land where magic resided. Together the waged a war against the potential threat to protect their subjects. The war was long. But eventually the kingdom of magic was purged."

The little girl peered up at her mother, wide eyed, "but what of the men and ladies who use magic today?"

"There were few that were spared in that war. the magic users we see today are their decedents. They side with kingdoms as they see fit and aid us."

She peered at her reflection in awe, "All of them?"

At this her mother gave pause, "...no, not all. There is one who claims no alliance. She is an ally to no kingdom."

The child wrinkled her nose in confusion, "so she helps everyone?"

"No..this sorceress is not kind like the few you have met through your father. She wishes for nothing more than destruction."

"why?"

"No one knows my dear child. Nor do we wish to cross paths with her even if it means to discover why."

"But..wouldn't it help to ask her?"

"It is not that simple dear. one day you will understand."

The child hummed a bit, "okay."

The room plunged into silence.

"Hey mama?"

"Yes dear?"

"What is that ladies name?"

The mother shook her head slightly, "No one knows, not really. She is shrouded in darkness, her identity a mystery besides the rumors that float around her. But they call her Sin."

The little girl cocked her head to the side, "and what did Sin do with her magic if she didn't help people with her power?"

At this the mother blanched, "She became the greatest assassin that ever lived."

She ahed, "mama?"

"yes?"

"whats an assassin?"
