Morning passed like usual although my mind couldn't stop thinking over that dreamlike place I dreamed over during the long night. 

I'd become capable of crawling and somewhat walking as I have now reached the age of one. Walking however only lasted me fifteen seconds at the most until my legs tremble and fall. 

Mother is slowly but surely developing my body to walk although sometimes it feels as if she's also focusing on my muscular build. When I least expect it, she'd always examine my arms and legs as of memorizing my growth and decrease in muscle. 

Lately she's been outside showing off her sword skills during the time I always stare out into the wilderness. It's as she's trying her best to persuade me, sure id join but my body needs to keep adapting and growing for me to reach that outcome. 

This size and body wouldn't even be able to hold a plastic or wooden toy sword. I can at least swing my hands around imitating the handle and swings of a sword. But not physically do it, perhaps my choice of allowing my magic abilities to grow was the wrong choice. 

"Viole!"

She'd scream with a smile outside our home as I would look outside at her outfit of exercise and the young boys glaring from the distance. Has puberty already struck them, perhaps it starts early compared to my former. 

"Why don't we head outside?"

The maid had softened somewhat from before. She seemed to have changed of her weary self against me as if something had naturally changed her. 

It was disturbing at first, but I grew to like her more. Most likely due to my infant mind. 

Allowing myself to be lifted, she headed outside to where mother stood as I was placed on a wooden seat to see a closer performance. 

Mother seemed to be dancing around with the sword as the wind around her vibrated with each of her movements. She was manipulating her surroundings with the source being the iron sword in her hand, she'd perform like a ballerina. 

Her moves were flawless and professional. Each swing she'd made would release air as they'd come to a supposed stop but continue afterwards. 

Her eyes lighted purple as the sunlight lit them further from there former. Her deep toned blonde hair turned vibrant as if to resemble a flame. 

To her conclusion her sword pointed at me as she'd reached her stop and release air to my direction as the impact remained minimal and soft rather than rough and dangerous. 

Surprised, is what I hold in my mind as this experience had never came to me before. I watched many shows and handled the sword in different manners in the past, but this dance with the sword demonstrated further potential in the use of the sword. 

I've grew to believe that wielding a sword was merely a tool for one to use in war before and now for those with little potential in magic. However mother changed that thought process with her abilities and demonstration of what's she's completely capable of. 

It was frightening but beautiful at the same time. 

"Your really have the combination of us both."

She turned back to normal as she pulled out a mirror and placed it in front of me. This was the first time I'd ever seen my bodily physique and appearance. 

My hair was long to reach my arms as the color was a lighter blonde with white streaks in the ends. My eyes were purple to the center as the outside was a green tone similar to that of fathers greenish blue eyes. 

Despite my male attributes, my overall body structure would resemble that of a girl rather than a boy. Face and all had the resemblance of my own mother rather than my own father. 

Fascinating, as my skin was also as white toned as mothers rather than a deeper one like fathers. 

It's as if all my traits came from her rather than him, although only a few come from my own father. 

I smiled without knowing due to the happiness that built as I looked at myself intensely. Mother developed a warm smile as well, alongside the maid who joined in. 

As the whereabouts of the boys disappeared and nobody else seemed around and more into the village than in this section. 

The sky turned dark and thunder seemed to strike out of nowhere. 

The whole village turned dark but even more so where we stood and mother stood guard as the maid summoned a spirit sword. 

Silence filled the air and only the sounds of clashing swords were heard as only their clashes of iron and metal were to be visible. 

There was a fight, and it was rapid and intense that we couldn't keep track of their location. 

"Finally found you."

A sinister voice filled my left ear as the sensation of a cold dagger touched my neck. There was a faint slize before I was separated and put onto the arms of mother who had her sword removed from her hands. 

There were two men, one to be severely injured.
