*The night that Alex left*
After receiving her letter from the black box of letters everyone got, Raven was holding it in her room. She was terrified to open it, but she also wanted to read it more than anything. She didn't want to accept that Alex had left without a proper goodbye, but she also wanted to know where he was going and why.
She had been crying since discovering he wasn't in his room; however, at this moment, she wiped her tears away and opened the letter.
"Dear Raven,
Honestly, this is the hardest one of these letters to write. Now, I know that at this moment you probably want to give me a good and proper ass kicking, which is understandable. I did leave without saying a thing. There are many reasons why I chose to do this, but mainly it was because I wanted to protect you. I need to find the strength to do so, which sadly means I can't stay with you, at least not for awhile.
I'll be traveling to an unknown location to train; you see, I was given an ability. I have an ability that holds tremendous power, but it's very dangerous because I truly don't know how to use it. I'm able to access some of it, but not enough to be where I want to be. The people training me also possess similar powers.
I don't know who one of them is, but the one I've met so far is named Adelia. She seems very understanding about my power and will help me harness the true extent of its abilities.
Now for the personal part, you and mom are the closest people to me, but you especially. I know we're not the typical brother and sister, but we're us, and that's enough for me. You who understands me more than most even Mom or any of the maids. When I come back, I hope we can still be as close as we are now, but I don't feel like it'll be the same me; I may change, and I hope you can love the new me as much as you do the current me.
Hopefully I'll be back with you soon, but just a quick note: you should join one of the academies in the capital. Xymaris Academy, preferably; they should help you develop your magic. I can't be the only one getting stronger after all. I really hope to see how far your talent grows; I just know you can become the best student in that academy. I will always believe in you.
- Love, Alex"
Raven read every word of the letter. She held onto the thought that Alex would return and wanted to see her stronger. She still had a lot to think about and wasn't done crying just yet.
She knew she had an objective now. To follow his words so when he came back she could show him that she is reaching her potential.
However, she had one quick thought that caused her eyes to darken in anger.
"Who the fuck is Adelia?"
