Rhea


Rhea



Rhea Alvarez stood at the edge of the cliff, her eyes reflecting the silver Twilight cast over Stella. Her skin, dark and rich like the earth beneath her feet, glistened under the last rays of the sun as she faced the distant call that had haunted her dreams for weeks. The shamans had called: those ancient, unwavering keepers of the old ways were the last arbiters of who was worthy to walk the path she now walked.

They did not call lightly. The whispers of their intention had spread like wildfire. Murmurs of an ancient ordination bestowed only on those who bore the unmistakable mark of Nahuatl. The touch of the deity was a rare thing, often manifest in gifts that frightened others and invoked reverence in those who recognized their power. Rhea had known that day was coming ever since she'd felt the electric pulse of the Spirit of Kukulkan course through her veins for the very first time. Just as inescapable as it was clear: Kukulkan had chosen her to wield its fury, its strength, its unrelenting storm. But for all her power, she knew one thing clearly: to carry the mark of the old gods was no small weight.

The scent of salt and wildflowers carried on the breeze as she turned from the edge of the cliff; her white hair caught the wind, a streak of lightning against the dusk. With each step that she descended from the precipice, she was making decisions more weighty. The path wound down toward her village, nestled deep in the valley below, where green stretched endlessly, blanketing the earth in life. She hadn't been here in months, not since the awakening and the power that came with it.

People heard of the change, some saw it with their own eyes, and a tint of amazement and fear always remained in their gazes whenever they chanced upon her.

Rhea

The elf knew that the task before her was as much a business of dispelling those fears as it was of proving herself to the seers and shamans. Power was a strange companion, one that set her apart from even those she had once called friends. Few understood what it was to become the storm and to command the skies. Even fewer understood the responsibility it demanded.

But as she neared the middle of the village, things changed. People began to gather and curiosities began to run wild. Children peered from behind their mothers as their round eyes reflected a mix of curiosity and admiration. Rhea felt the warmth of their gazes beckon her toward the center of their gathering. A woman came forward, her nails a riot of colors, her jewelry flashing in the sunlight. She held a gold necklace in her hands, catching the sunlight. She hung it around Rhea's neck and her fingers grazed the cool metal.

"May this bring you strength," the woman said, her voice soft but filled with conviction.

Rhea's breath caught for a moment.

The Sorceress touched the necklace feeling as though the respect of her people was a weight against her skin. One by one, the villagers approached her and adorned her with different trinkets and ornaments: bracelets of intricate beadwork, rings with precious stones--every item a token of their trust and belief in her. The simple gesture of adorning her felt deep like some sort of blessing ritual. And with every piece she felt the connection tighten between them like a mixture of past and the future. When that was done, Rhea continued on her way, the villagers following in silence for as long as they could. With every step, she felt the power of her heritage running through her veins, like an old and ancient song of the land and its people.
