" Run! Malestiare has attacked the Commons!" One of the villagers shouted. Creating more chaos than there already is. The commons consumed by fire and minions. Villagers using their last strength to fight off Malestiare's minions. However, they are too weak.

In the headmaster's house laid the queen of the six realms, screaming in pain. Sweat dripping off her forehead, as she pants and pushes. " You're almost done queen Elles! One more push!" Headmaster Ambrose held the queen's hand as she pushes again. Soon to hear a baby's cry. The headmaster let out a soft happy sigh and held the baby in his arms.

" kill it." The queen says.
" but- your majesty, she is just a baby! She isn't to blame for this!" The headmaster tries to plead with the queen.
" SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN BORN!" The queen yells causing the baby to cry even more.
" she shouldn't have been born, I've never wanted her anyway" the queen uses her healing spells to heal herself.

The headmaster looks at the baby. He puts his finger inside the baby's mouth so she would stop crying. The baby did stop crying. Cooing as she sucked his finger. The headmaster realized that he most protect this child.

" I'll raise her. She will be my own. No one has to know- she will be mine- I'll take care of her." The headmaster stares at the queen.

The headmaster is the Queen's most loyal Noble . Everything that the headmaster does, the queen respects. She follows his example. The Queen looks at him. She stand up and walks towards the doors. " she will never be allowed at the palace, she will be considered to be like the rest of them. Are you willing to carry that burden?" The queen says without looking back.

The headmaster looks at the child's face and smiles. He rocks her in his arms and hums. "where this child go, i'll go. Even if it means being killed by Malestiare." He says then continues to hum. The queen sighs and teleports away. Leaving a father with a child, motherless. A burden that the headmaster was willing to take in. Even to the end.

" I'll name you, Alyssa. Daughter of the light and dark. Alyssa Ambrose. It fits well." The baby coos and falls asleep.

Would he ever regret it?

The Present

It was a bright sunny day shining in the commons. At the entrance of entering the Commons, stood Alyssa Ambrose, facing the guardians of the gate. Two 15 feet golems with very big swords.

" Ive already proven to you many times I'm Alyssa Ambrose. Let me in." Alyssa demanded.
" run along death wizard. Your not welcomed to this realm." One of the guardians said.

" boys, I've told you many times, you will let her come in and out of this realm as she pleases. She's my daughter, have some respect" Headmaster Ambrose says appearing between the two guardians. Startled by the voice of the headmaster, they let Alyssa in the gate.

" father" Alyssa greets the headmaster with a hug.
" it's been a year since I've seen this beautiful face. How did necromancy and death classes went?" The headmaster hugs Alyssa then pulls away giving her a kiss on her forehead.
" it was amazing father. I can't wait to return back and learn more!" Alyssa said enthusiastic.
The headmaster's smile disappears and got serious. Alyssa quickly noticed and pulled away from his grasp.

" I am going back right?" Alyssa says.
" no you're not. You will be attending Ravenwoods academy. There you will learn new spells." Headmaster says as he mounts his horse.
" but father, they won't teach me anything about death, how am I supposed to master everything? I have to go back!" Alyssa says.
" you have mastered every death spell there is in the book. You've also mastered every life spell there is! Which is precisely that i need you to attend Ravenwoods so you can teach and learn from the other young wizards attending that academy." The headmaster says.
