The Hidden Past

Kael's eyes seemed to bore into Lyra's soul as he began to speak.

"You were born into a world of magic and wonder," Kael said. "A world where supernatural beings ruled and humans were secondary citizens."

Lyra's eyes widened as Kael continued.

"But you were different, Lyra," Kael said. "You were a Shadowborn, a being with the power to control the shadows. And you were destined for great things."

Lyra's mind was reeling. What did Kael mean?

"What happened to me?" Lyra asked.

Kael's face was grim. "You were taken from your family and hidden away," Kael said. "Your powers were suppressed, and you were raised as a human."

Lyra's eyes narrowed. "Who did this to me?" she asked again.

Kael's eyes seemed to cloud over. "It was the Order of the Veil," Kael said. "A secret organization that seeks to control and manipulate supernatural beings."

Lyra's heart was racing. The Order of the Veil? What did they want with her?

"Why did they do this to me?" Lyra asked.

Kael's face was grim. "You were a threat to their power," Kael said. "And they sought to eliminate you."

Lyra's eyes locked onto Kael's. She knew that she had to know more.

"What do you mean?" Lyra asked.

Kael's eyes seemed to bore into Lyra's soul. "You have a destiny to fulfill, Lyra," Kael said. "A destiny that could change the course of history."
