In the Walker household, Elma was diligently caring for Lily, who had just turned one year old. Gently, she checked Lily's temperature and offered her warm milk, ensuring that the baby was comfortable and sleeping soundly.
After Lily had fallen asleep, Elma continued with the chores, washing dishes before sitting down in front of the television. Exhausted, she eventually drifted off to sleep. In her dreams, Elma saw a young girl with blonde hair, looking radiant yet distressed. The child appeared to be crying in the middle of a dark forest. Elma tried to reach the girl, but she moved further away with every step. As the girl vanished, Elma was abruptly awakened by Lily's cries. Rushing to Lily’s room, Elma asked softly, “What’s wrong, sweetie?” She picked Lily up and held her close, guessing that the baby might be missing her parents who were still in the hospital. It was late into the night by the time Elma had managed to soothe Lily back to sleep. As Elma prepared to return to bed herself, she heard a faint knocking at the back door. Frowning, Elma murmured, “It might just be the wind,” but given the recent attack on Evan, she decided to check it out. Upon approaching the back door, she noticed a few strands of hair peeking through the crack. Her curiosity piqued, Elma opened the door, and to her surprise, she found a young girl with blonde hair, wearing a dirty nightgown and clutching something—a bow. The sight was both striking and peculiar: a disheveled child with a precious relic. Elma's heart went out to the girl. Although uncertain about the child’s identity, she decided to help her. Surely, a child like this posed no threat. After making her decision, Elma carefully picked up the girl and carried her inside. *** The next morning, Evan felt significantly better, likely due to his recent level up. The doctor, astonished by his quick recovery, finally allowed him to go home. Evan, along with his family, returned to their house. Upon arriving, Elma asked Daniel and Maria to speak with her privately, while Evan headed to his room. It wasn't long before Evan came out of his room, looking perplexed. “Who’s in my room?” Daniel and Maria exchanged glances before turning to Elma. “Did Aunt Elma bring someone home?” Evan inquired. Elma nodded, her smile tinged with guilt. “I’m sorry, Maria. I found a girl sleeping outside the house. She looked so exhausted that I brought her in to rest in Evan’s room.” Evan was initially indifferent to the situation, but he was taken aback by the sight of the bow beside the girl. Curious, Daniel and Maria hurried to Evan’s room. Like Evan, they were astonished by the sight of the beautiful child and the bow. “I tried waking her up, but she seems to have a fever, so I let her sleep,” Elma explained. Maria felt the girl’s forehead. “She has a fever.” Daniel turned to Elma. “Did she say anything about her parents or where she’s from?” Elma shook her head. “When she woke up briefly, she cried out for her parents.” Maria and Daniel exchanged worried looks. Maria’s maternal instincts told her that the girl might be going through a very difficult time. “Let her rest for now. We’ll talk to her when she’s strong enough,” Daniel decided. Evan was about to ask where he would sleep if the girl was in his room, but a familiar notification sound echoed in his ears, signaling a new quest. New Quest: (0/4) - Protect Aria Sterling - Safeguard Arrow of Eternal Light - Investigate Aria Sterling’s Background - Make Aria Sterling an Ally Quest Description: Aria Sterling, the daughter of the Sterling family, is now under your protection. Safeguard her from any threats and ensure that the Arrow of Eternal Light remains secure from those who would misuse it. Her presence and the relic will have a significant impact on Arcadia’s fate. Investigate Aria’s background to gain a deeper understanding of her destiny. Evan read the quest notification carefully. The names "Aria Sterling" and "Arrow of Eternal Light" immediately reminded him of the quest to save Michael Chang and the Blade of Eternity. “Blade of Eternity and Arrow of Eternal Light?” Evan pondered. “Why do these people want these relics so badly?” ***

He sat on his bed, staring at the wardrobe where Aria had slept the night before.When Evan came down to the dining room, he found Elma busy preparing breakfast. Her face still showed signs of fatigue, but there was a gentle smile on her lips as she saw Evan.“Good morning, Evan,” Elma greeted warmly. “How did you sleep?”“Good morning, Aunt Elma,” Evan replied as he sat at the dining table. “I slept well. But… I’m still curious about the girl you brought home yesterday. What exactly happened?”Elma sighed and stirred the soup in the pot. “Her name is Aria Sterling. I found her outside the house last night, and she looked exhausted and deeply distressed.”Evan listened intently. “Did she say anything? Does she know who was af

As the sun began to set, the Walker family gathered in the living room. Aria, feeling more at ease in this new environment, sat on one of the sofas while Evan, Maria, Daniel, and Elma surrounded her. They planned to discuss their next steps.“So, Aria,” Maria began gently, “we’ve heard about the situation you’re facing. But we’d like to understand more about what happened and how we can help.”Aria nodded, looking at Maria with eyes still showing anxiety. “I know it might be hard to believe, but the people who were chasing me have very dark and powerful abilities. They’re after me because of this arrow,” she said, pointing to the relic she carried. “I’ve seen their own power, and they seem to have magical abilities.”Daniel, who had always been skeptical of things that couldn’t be explained scientifically, looked at Aria with doubt. “Magic? That sounds like fiction. We live in the real world, not in a novel.”Elma bit her lip, trying to recall if there was any logical explanation for

I hope this report will get serious attention.”After breakfast, Daniel left for the police station with the full report about the si

Evan had decided that he needed to keep his newfound interest in magic and his own abilities a secret. He didn’t want to alarm his parents or create more concern than necessary. Thus, he approached Aria with a carefully crafted plan. After breakfast, Evan found Aria alone in the living room, quietly drawing with crayons. Evan hesitated for a moment, then walked over and sat beside her.“Hey, Aria,” Evan began, trying to sound casual. “I’ve been thinking... I know you can do magic, and I was wondering if you could teach me a bit.”Aria looked up, her blue eyes wide with surprise. “You want to learn magic?”Evan nodded

It’s nice to meet you too.”Evan felt it was time to make the official introduction. “Riley, I want you to meet Aria. She’s a witch.”Riley was stunned by this revelation.
