Backstory

One night, I was stargazing with my best friend in a meadow near my home. It was something we did regularly as we both were intrigued by the night sky. What can I say? I'm true to my name I guess.

We laid on our backs, pointing out constellations that we knew and shared inside jokes. As I traced the shape of Orion with my finger, a sudden seemed to appear out in front of us. Startled, I sat up and saw that my finger was glowing softly, casting a gentle light in the darkness.

My friend stared in amazement as the glow grew brighter. Curious and unafraid, I reached out, and the light seemed to respond to my touch, dancing like the stars above. In that moment, I felt a surge of power and a deep connection to the cosmos.

I quickly told my best friend that I'd see her later and ran back home to tell my parents. They exchanged knowing glances when I told them. Totally not what I was expecting at all. Maybe a "hm, we should maybe take her to the doctor" or "You're going to an asylum" not "hey, so actually, magic runs in our family and you're a witch".

A week later, an owl arrived at my window, clutching a letter with a wax seal. The rest is pretty much history as the saying goes.
