Darla Deen was always keen that she was not like other infants. She hardly ever cried, and her parents never saw why, since the Fey and a long passed cat kept her company. And At night some Folk would say the Moon Doe would lay, by her sill and sing sweet lullaby.
Darla Deen was always keen that she was not like other six year olds. When most her age were content to play with inanimate clay, she made it move and dance. To add to the oddities, ravens kept her company, seeking favor by scaring bullies away. And then one day, when all the strangeness got in the way, a man from a odd school came. He gave Darla one look, even talked to the rooks and decided Darla needed a school change. So within a few days Darla had a uniform change, and off to Academy she went.
Darla Deen, at the age of 16 still knew she was not like her peers. The Academy she adored with its magics and more, made her feel like just another girl. But as time marched on, her powers grew strong, and even made a few teachers rather twitchy. For not even the best could contest Darlas' incredible prowess of Directing the Etheric Flow. And very few would know, because it never really showed, that miss Deen never studied not once. For she already knew it all, but were it was learned she did not recall, so they claimed her a genius.
Darla Deen, age 18 graduated with top degrees. She declined a position of teaching new acquisitions and set off on her own. Darla Deen could been seen almost anywhere across this world. Her fame spread wide but she could always hide from those who sought her out. the reason for her travels is a mystery still unraveled but I would hazard a guess, that Darla Deens' Quest was to find something within herself.
Darla Deen at 20 would meet the peculiar man that was I. It was out by a lake (it was quite great) where I was caught by Darla's' eyes. It was easy I admit since the fox head didn't quite fit with the orange suit and tie. We chatted for a bit until Darla felt fit to ask me her question of "Why?"
To which I said: "Darla Deen you are always quite keen, but I understand why this eludes you. Through your whole life you've felt it, how you didn't quite fit in, that some great self truth escaped you. But I am here now to give you just that, since the person playing with you is cheating."
And I told her a story, of self possessed romance and woe, of a man filled with wretched desire, and so this man cast a spell so simple or complex none could tell, one held in places by falsities and lies. That spell soon lay broken as the real Darla had awoken, and boy was she mad as hell. As her form grew and swelled, she asked why it all took so long. I simply replied "Humans are easy to hide, especially so when you don't quite know which magician your friend might be inside."
Darla Deen, A dragon and maybe one day a queen, simply rolled her eyes. But she thanked me for this day before she was off and away to char a vain and foolish man. And well I could sit idly by, such a thing an entertainment gold mine! So like any good friend, I made sure their path's crossed again and boy oh boy did he ever fry.
