MORE STORY!
Chapter four
The revelation that I had magic was quite a shocking one. The next morning, after I confirmed that last nights events were NOT a dream, it took some concentration to get my fire magic to work again.
My mother had told me stories of enchantresses before she had died, and it had just uccured to me that maybe...mother was an enchantress! An enchantress, mother had said, was not to be confused with a witch, for our magic did not involve worshiping the devel and any other demons, mother had told me enchantresses were also known to be holy people and believed in God. That fit mother perfectly, for she had been a very holy woman. Maybe, I thought as I sat by a stream neer where I had camped last night, being an enchantress runs in the family, and if mother was one that would sertently explain my magic...
A rustle of the trees around me shook me out of my thoughts. I looked up and was suprised to see a girl a bit younger then me in slave like clothes run out of the woods. She looked just as suprsied to see me. She glanced at my clothes, which I relized still were easy to tell they belonged to royalty or a nobel even without the embroidery and jewels,and swept into a low, clumsy cursty.
"I'm sorry for stareling you my lady" she said in a sweet voice, looking down.
"Oh it's alright," I said with a smile " I'm pri- er, lady natalie, and you are?"
She looked up, shocked. I suppose a peasent, or slave, was not used to nobels asking them anything about their-sleves. I couldn't help but feel sorry for the girl
"Er... I- I'm E- E- Erica" she muttered
Erica, I thought, that's pretty. "well Erica," I said. "how did you end up here"
Erica blushed a pretty red. " oh well... I ran away m'lady, I'm a slave you see, as are- or were my parents. After we tried to escape for the fifth time, it's torture working for this man, my master beat both my parents to death...I was scared and angry so I ran."
Oh my, I thought, that's absolutly horriable. How can men be so cruel like that?
At no reply Erica continued. "If you do not mind my asking m'lady" she said. " what are YOU doing out here?"
"er..." I said "it's a long story..." but Erica insisted on hearing it so I told her.
I'm sorry but I have to end it here...
