A smile was poised upon the young fae's lips as she stared at the new life ahead of her. The pretty seal point tabby saw beauty even in the horribly deep and dark swamp lands that she would soon call home. She saw beauty in most everything - she had since she was a young girl.
The girl looked so graceful, so beautiful. She carried herself like a princess despite having lived her life among common folk. She had been a princess. She still was, in her mind, though her title had been granted to her long, long ago. Mother One had died during childbirth, and the tabby femme knew not much about her (Mother Two did not know much either, or maybe she was just not letting on). She was a queen though, Mother One. And the girl's father was a king. Father was... She frowned as she thought of him. In her heart, she wanted to believe he was a good man, but he had cast her out at a young age in favor of her older sister. For the life of her, though, she could not blame Father. He was just trying to protect Sister, wasn't he? The feline let the frown fall and instead replaced it with that smile she carried from earlier. Silly Father! If only he had known that Freyja was a goddess in her own right - the goddess of courage. She wondered if Sister knew.
Sister. "Nayru." The name was not foreign to her. Mother Two had told her countless stories about her older sister. The girl loved sitting and listening to the tales of the young goddess, her sister. Never once had Freyja found herself envious or angry; she was excited to hear all the wonderful things her big sister would accomplish! Nayru was so important to Akala! Freyja felt nothing but pride at her sister's abilities. Freyja had not come into her own powers, and although it would be some time before she acquired any abilities, she was born ready.
"He-e-ello!" the girl called in a singsong tone. "My name is Freyja! I'm looking to join - er, uh..." She bit her lip. What had Mother Two called this place? Darn Frey for not paying more attention! [color=#A36B5E][b]"I'm here to join Banglehood?"
