Black Ice

Mariette Cass
Children of the Moon

Since the Bloodclaw clan successfully raided a couple of villages of the Children of the Sun, things had been going well. There was a lot of new weaponry, and no one had to limit themselves in anything. The Children received many interesting things in their restless hands, from precious stones and some magical artifacts to quality weapons. It was during this wonderful time that Mariette grew up; her father gifted her with various trinkets, which she was incredibly happy about. Adorning herself with dozens of pieces of jewelry, she walked around the camp with an important air and behaved like a lady. Her father was a strong and respected warrior, so Mariette was forgiven for all the minor pranks she enjoyed playing. The girl followed in her father's footsteps and began to learn how to fight with two swords.
When Mariette's training was over, her father took her into his squad, whose goal was a barbarian village on the very border of the Children of the Sun. However, upon arriving at the location, the squad found only burning houses and piles of corpses. The warriors scattered around the village, trying to find something that could indicate who had done all this. Valuable items were untouched, and the livestock was killed.
A man in a red hooded cloak suddenly appeared in the market square; no one could understand how he got there, but a whisper spread among the warriors. They called him the "demonologist." With one hand, he held a crying child by the hair, and in the other, he clutched a dagger. The stranger shouted something unintelligible, and his cry was full of disgust, grating on the ears and causing nausea; so strong was his magic. After that, he cut the child's throat. A bright red light pierced the evening darkness.
On the streets of the village, the dead began to rise with terrible groans.
Mariette didn't remember what happened next; everything was like in a fog. In the morning, the Children of the Sun found her wounded body among a pile of corpses. The other captured warriors said that she desperately resisted the mage's paralyzing spells and moved towards him with incredible determination, clutching a sword in her hands. No one had ever seen anything like it; the girl possessed amazing willpower. But in the end, she could not withstand the onslaught of spells and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Most of the warriors of the Bloodclaw, led by Mariette's father, managed to retreat; many fell in battle, and the remaining survivors were taken on a journey to the land of the Children of the Sun as prisoners.
After spending several months in the city of the Children of the Sun and getting to know this people much better than before, Mariette abandoned all thoughts of war. Only hatred for the insane mages gave her no peace; how many more of them could roam this land?
She decided to join the Order of Watchers.
