Is this how I am going to die ?

You asked yourself. You laid on the garden's lawn, you don't know how many days have passed but you couldn't take it anymore.

You wanted it all to end when...A voice suddenly popped up.

"Hello"

A white light appeared. It slowly came down at your level. The light spoke, you saw a flashing [favorite color] light. You didn't feel any fatigue or pain in your body. All of your bruises were gone. The light that came and helped you was now a shining crystal white orb in your hands.

"What are you ?"

The little ball floated around and spun happily, for some reason you could understand exactly what it was saying.

"So your name is Von ? Why did you help me..?"

The little ball flew around the garden and flew around your head. When it touched the top of your head you felt some kind of crown. You take it in your hand and see it was a beautifully crafted flower crown.

"Friends..? You would really want to be friends, with somebody like me..?"

Von jumped up and down, responding positively.

After Atalanta stopped visiting or talking to you, you were alone for so long...Your brother would always ignore you in favor of your father's demand, the servant never tried to interact with you, your mother dedicated her time to either herself or making you feel worst everyday and your sister... She would try to be nice but it would always end up in her trying to hurt you in some way.

But this being of power...wanted to associate itself with you. You wanted to cry tears of joy but the past few days have already wasted all your tears.

When your mother finally came in to get you, you could see how surprise she was when she saw you making flower crowns with a floating orb. She tried to hit you and take away Von. You didn't try fighting her off, you were ready to receive another beating, but the impact of her hand never came. Instead, your older brother took the hit for you.

You didn't know where he came from but you were surprised to see him defending you.

"Mother, l'est calm down. Why not talk it out in the living room ?" He still remained compose even after taking a brutal hit on his face. He only rubbed it but didn't show any pain.

Your mother quickly nodded to your brother's proposal before calling out the maids to check if your brother had sustained grave injuries. The worry she showed was only towards herself, she was scared of what he was going to do to her.

You remembered how he looked back at you, his [eye color] eyes showing no ill intentions.

You've always had complicated feelings towards your brother. On one hand you wanted to scream at him and ask him why he left you in your years of solitude but on the other, you felt like you owed him a lot for defending you and Von.

After everyone learned you were a magician in some way, everyone left you at your own device with some occasional request of showing your skills in magic.

You still felt isolated, the only good thing was that your mother stopped beating you as frequently. She still did but on rare occasions.
