The Edge Of The World Of Magic
Episode 1
Amara looked at her hands she closed her eyes shaking her head.
Random gang member: boss some guy wants to talk to you what’s your response?
Amara sighed deeply she opened he eyes looking at the member who talked to her.
Amara Strauss
Bring him in please.
The random gang member nodded he quickly ran off a bit frightened.
Amara Strauss
(It’s been well over 20 years since I was abandoned and 8 since I left that god forsaken orphanage I can deal with anything.)
Amara unsheathed her sword slamming its blade into the ground.
A man walked in with short brown hair a pair of swords on his back he stopped once he saw Amara he smiled.
Quill hint
You must be Amara?
Amara Strauss
Who are you and your accent are you from the eastern empire?
The man smiled he nodded.
Quill hint
Yes I guess my accent is enough to give me away.
Amara Strauss
My my you are a long way away from home aren’t you easterner is it truly a wise choice coming here?
Quill hint
I can say the same for you mixed blood.
Amara pulled the sword out of the floor threatening the man he smiled oddly.
Quill hint
Don’t worry I mean you no harm just a word of advice hide your elf ears better.
Quill hint
Their poking out of your hair.
Amara sighed she shook her head.
Amara Strauss
I’m fine with my elf heritage anyway why the hell are you here!?
The man smiled hesitantly.
Quill hint
My name is Quill I’m a mercenary from the eastern empire a women claiming to be a nun but was not dressed as one hired me to give you this letter.
Amara looked at him confused.
Amara Strauss
Why would a nun hire a mercenary but not a actual carrier?
Amara she lowered the sword back into the ground confused Quill smiled shrugging.
Quill hint
My guess is she wants this letter off the books people usually hire mercs to deliver letters if they have something dark to hide and they can’t hire the carrier guild due to their logging.
Quill opened a hidden bag pulling out a letter he quickly passed it onto Amara.
Amara Strauss
What faith was the nun from do you know where she was from?
Quill hint
I believe she ran the local orphanage.
Quill hint
Her faith is unknown to me though.
Amara Strauss
Alright thanks you can go.
Amara said Quill nodded he turned around and left Amara looked at the letter it felt heavy the envelope became bigger than previously.
Amara Strauss
He probably casted a resizement spell on it so he could place it in his bag.
Amara shook her head she grabbed a letter opener quickly cutting it open she emptied the items onto a wooden desk she looked confused.
Amara Strauss
Some kind of papers?
Amara quickly pulled up a chair sitting down she flipped the paper to check the other side she dropped it her hand trembled she stood up immediately.
Amara Strauss
That bitch hole of nun I said I didn’t want to see.
A tear fell down Amara’s eyes she picked the picture back up.
The picture was of a boy and a man the boy had been around the age of 4 he had been sitting on the mans lap who had looked older than Amara the boy had silver short hair with silver eyes they had been outside.
Amaras finger lit on fire she brought it closer to the picture setting it on fire she dropped it into a bucket.
She picked up a second picture looking at it quickly it had been the same boy standing in a field with upset eyes Amara quickly dropped it and all other photos in the bucket it quickly got consumed by the fire Amara watched as the fire consumed the photo she looked as one of the photos soon got close to the boys face she shook her head grabbing it and putting it out she hugged the photo.
Amara fell to the ground crying.
A unknown amount of time later.
Amara opened her eyes she looked around confused and worried.
Gang member: Boss your alright.
Amara Strauss
W-What happened?
Amara shook a bit shocked.
Amara Strauss
What are you doing here?
Quill hint
I forgot to give you this letter.
Quill took out a envelope offering it to Amara she shook her head.
Amara Strauss
(What does she want can’t she see I don’t want to see him)
Quill hint
I think you should read it.
Quill hint
Then I’ll read it for you.
Quill opened the letter unfolding it he smiled.
Quill hint
Dear mom hey it’s me your son Quincy I know you don’t want to hear from the girl from the orphanage but at least here from me I still remember the night when you took me to the orphanage when I was 2 you left me behind without a second thought I don’t know why... but the nun says it’s never too late to come back momma she said it’s never too late to take me back it’s never too late to be a mom.
Amara covered her mouth she began to cry.
One of her subordinates looked at her shocked.
Episode 2
Amara looked at her hand she wiped away at her tears..
Amara Strauss
I’m sorry child but if I want my revenge I can’t prioritize a child.
Amara picked the paper from the boy up she quickly folded it.
The note began to be set ablaze she tossed the blazing letter in the trash.
The door opened Amara jumped up a bit looking a the door it had been a women.
Female crew member

Amara Strauss
Ready the ship we are going to the capital.
The girl nodded she ran off closing the door behind her.
Amara Strauss
Father it will be time for retribution and now is the time to attack.
Emily Blair
Why honey you don’t look alright.
Amara shook a bit shocked she looked at the window a gir at been standing entering the room.
Amara Strauss
Don’t act dumb Emily I said I never wanted to see him again.
Emily entered the room fully she raised her hands defensively.
Emily Blair
Hey I just thought you would at least want his thrown away letters and some pictures.
Amara Strauss
Throw away letter?
Emily nodded she turned around huddling frowning.
Emily Blair
That letter was written before his 4th birthday those letters were also taken before his fourth birthday.
Amara looked at her she shook her head looking away.
Amara Strauss
How is he now?
Emily Blair
Before he was smiling... but during his fifth birthday he became more depressed And not just that he’s getting sicker.
Emily turned around looking at Amara she had a frown.
Emily Blair
You should see him he’s getting weaker and I don’t think he will ever get better.
Amara Strauss
I’m sorry I can’t what I’m doing is more important.
Emily Blair
More important than your own child!
Emily turned around she then smiled.
Emily Blair
What if I told you your son is like you a mage?
Emily Blair
Yup I’m afraid the people might ostracized him.
Emily Blair
The village he lives in currently is small and it’s filled with hard believers of the faith I’m not sure your son will be all right with even his friends abandoning him I’m sure the one thing that goes into his mind is jump off a bridge after all haven’t you heard 5 year olds mages are hearing a voice influencing them to kill themselves up in the East.
Amara Strauss
It’s.... not my problem if he does that it’s his adoptive parents problem.
Emily Blair
Why I even his adopted mom abandoned him didn’t you know he only one he has is his adopted dad and even that seems like it’s falling apart I’m pretty sure last time I saw him he had a cut or a bruise on his face.
Amara Strauss
Shut the hell up Emily I don’t care.
Emily Blair
Hmm... it seems that way I’ll come back with his stuff once he dies.
Emily turned around she opened the window beginning to leave.
Emily stopped she secretly smiled turning her head her smile quickly disappeared Amara had gotten up reaching over.
Amara Strauss
J-Just in Case can you tell me where they live if my mission ends sooner?
Emily nodded she pulled out a roll throwing it towards Amara quickly catches it.
Emily Blair
That’s a map to the location.
Amara nodded Emily quickly left shutting the window.
Amara Strauss
(Did Emily lie or was she telling a truth but anyway I kinda do hope this ends soon I want to see him.)
Amara hid the map in her bag she picked her sword up and left the room.
Female crew member

Amara Strauss

Male crew member

Amara Strauss
Tell the crew to set sail we leave for the capital today and we aren’t going to let anything to stop us.
Female crew member
Yes ma’am!
Male crew member
Yes ma’am!
They both left the room quickly.
Amara sighed she laid back onto her bed looking at the ceiling as it begins to move.
Writers notes: Male crew member and female crew member are for every crew member that don’t have a name... you can basically call them generic NPCs like in video games but only for the crew/gang.
Amara Strauss
I wonder who will I have to kill....
Amara Strauss
....To get to the target.

Amara smiled she walked off deck looking around everyone looked at her sideway.
Random Citizen: Those long ears really have guts coming to our home after what they’ve done to Empress Mara.
Amara started to walk ignoring their cold gaze a man stepped in front of her starring her down.
He had long blonde hair and wore amor.
Man: You have some guts coming here elf.
Amara looked at the man unfazed.
Amara Strauss
Everyone has rights to return to their roots same as you a guard have the rights to talk down to someone even if their bigger.
The guard scoffs he raised his hand angered.
Amara Strauss
I wouldn’t if I were you.
Amara looked at her sword the guard gulped he turned around and walked away Amara sighed she continued to walk.
Amara’s blood began to boil as she remember something.
Young Amara Strauss
Mom why does everyone hate me?
Amara’s mom looked at her she frowned.
Marie lane
Why darling that’s not true I love you.
Amara looked towards the side upset.
Young Amara Strauss
I know that but why?
Marie lane
My dear daughter... you are the product of a truce between the west and east empire even though all children should be loved you I guess are the exception for everyone including your father and sister but.... not for me I love you.
Amara smiled Marie caressed Amara’s face smiling.
Amara Strauss
If you loved me then why did you....
Amara began to remember something after.
Marie lane
YOU STUPID GIRL SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BORN I NEVER WANTED YOU AND NO ONE WILL WANT YOU!
Marie raised her hand smacking Amara, Amara retreated to a corner and began sobbing.
Amara Strauss
Why am I remembering that at a time like this I must focus on getting my revenge.
Amara arrived at the castle guards tried to stop her but they swiftly met Amara’s blade.
Amara stopped at the door she placed her hands on it.
Amara Strauss
Ignis illumináre.
The door began to light exploding into a thick smoke.
Amara shook her head walking through killing any guards that tried to stop her covering her in blood.
Amara stopped once she was in the throne room and there had been no more guards only a tall man stood in the center back turned.
Amara Strauss
Father face me!
The man jumped a bit turning around while carrying a child Amara’s but it hadn’t been one from the pictures it had been a older boy trembling.
Jean Strauss
My my dear Amara you really should hide your children better after all one of them may die.
Jean unsheathed a small knife pointing it at the boys throat.
Jean Strauss
Attack and he dies.
Amara Strauss
He dies either way and I for one would rather take you out then worry for someone’s safety.
Amara began to ran sword in hand Jean looked at her shocked.
Jean throws the child he points his finger at Amara.
Jean Strauss
Invert illumináre caeli!
A gust of air spewed out of his fingers hitting Amara head on exploding half the building she had been launched into the sky her body broken and torn apart from the inside.
Jean Strauss
My daughter I hope you find what makes you happy.
Jean looked at the boy he threw he had been frightened.
The boy: I did what you’ve asked so please let my mom and father go!
Jean Strauss
What I said was true you are the heir to my throne so no you stay here while I find her other someone else.
The boy fell to the ground he got knocked out by the shock Jean shook his head and quickly walked off leaving the boy to the floor.
