Seldara was born the first child of King Stran XXII. Much to the disapointment of the people she was a woman. She grew up on the teachings of her mother as her father was busy most of the time. Her brother was born a few years later and everyone was in high hopes. The king's line could now be continued. Now everyone wasn't focused on her and how dissapointed they were she was female.
She had decided no matter what she did in life, she would always look out for her younger brother, being female never worried her too much.
She developed a strong bond with her grandmother from her mothers side and was taught many things rom her. Mostly about herbs and spices as that was the old womans specialty.
Being a Strantolian magical matters rarely came up. Strantol was a non believing country yet magic was practiced here every day of the week. The only magical thing her father accepted was Draco. An old sorcerer who visited the family regularly and became quite good friends with her grandmother.
Although she never got to know this man very often she would always hang out for his visits and smiled when he came.
The enevitable came one night as she lay in her bed. Seldara had a vision or dream of her grandmothers death and quickly raced to her room only to discover her dream was a reality.
She was so angry with herself she gathered some books from the forbiddon scrolls in her fathers dungeons and started searching for a way to bring her back from the dead. |
