	Da-Xia was up before the sun. She had rathered her things from her tent and folded everything neatly before wrapping it up and mounting everything on Tian, her black horse. It was custom for her people to wake before the sun rose in order to greet the sun goddess, Surxia, and capture the first rays of the sun as one prays and meditates. Her aunt always told her that her mother would go up to the roof of their old home and sing to the goddess as the sun showered her in the light. While Da-Xia had tried to do something similar once her voice didn't hold up to expectation. Instead, she turned to something she was far more superior to, and that was the lyre. Once she had finished with her morning routine of getting everything packed, she took her lyre and sat a few yards away from Tian. The sun was just minutes from rising when she began to play a traditional song of her people, the Chaoxen. 

	Everything had to be perfect today. She had been training all of her life but had only managed to get a trainer for two. It was time. With her mother's sword and her veil, she would finally pass the Right and get her long-awaited Dark Dragon. To step in her mother's shoes was something that Da-Xia had been longing to do for so long. The warmth of the sun only made her more confident in herself. 

	After her song had ended, she put away her lyre and continued her morning routine. She fed Tian and herself something simple. No meats this time, something light but fulfilling so she wouldn't throw up in the middle of the Right. By the time breakfast was done, she could feel everything she had just eaten on her throat. 

	[color=B8860B]"It will be okay; I can do this."[/color] Da-Xia assured herself and bowed her head for a silent prayer.

	By the time Da-Xia made it to the keep the place was already buzzing with energy. While the immense structure of the keep had given Da-Xia a moment of awe, the inside seemed a lot more impressive than the outside. People and dragon alike moved from direction to another with a clear goal in mind. A few hurried to carry boxes while others took their time to get to their destination. Da-Xia, on the other hand, wondered with Tian on her side as both looked and examined the place. Soon they were ushered towards the Village where even more people walked or ran around the place. 

	It was so loud. Too loud.
