Alexis Ness, a typical noble in the roses of The Alamanie Empire. This poor boy, bullied and shunned by his peers and friends, longs for a life other than the mundane experiments with chemicals and compounds that don’t hold any mystery to them. But his family legacy must carry on.

Alexis, the poor boy, always drawn to danger, drawn to the unknown, and drawn to the magical. To him, everything he can’t cast out of his mind is what’s most magical.

————————————◇

”What’s magical about a concept?” His family sneers. ”Nothing can ever come out of your fingers like light. You’re playing make believe again— go ahead and clean up that mess you made.”

Alexis, that poor little boy, trudges along and picks up the shards of glass that shattered across the stone tiles of his estate’s pathway. The Ness family’s renowned name as successful scientists reflects on the beautiful mansion that clears the very edge of an abandoned forest.

The pathway, littered with sharp glass and a mercury solution used in the thermometers that Alexis broke was hard to clean up. It’s just glass… but he gets the foreboding feeling he shouldn’t touch the glass or anything that the mercury solution came into contact with.

The shard began to rattle against the ground. Alexis’ instinct saved him for once, and with wonder, he watched as the shards floated off into the woods, barely skimming the stones on the pathway long abandoned and weeded with overgrown flowers from lack of use.

Alexis, the naive boy, decides to follow. After all, glass shards can’t float so suddenly. Nothing would ever be able to explain that except magic. The dangers of the woods behind the Ness Estate were rumors he’d taken lightly… after all, the poor boy is attracted to the mystical unknown.

Carefully, Alexis walks down the grassy pathway. Amidst the shadows, he can feel something watching him.

Alexis, the enchanted boy in discovery of a mage, can only stare in wide eyed shock.

Magic is real. And it exists within the person in front him.
