Time: Before Dawn
Location: Kingdom of Light, Royal Castle

The first lights of day in the Kingdom of Light were just starting to peek over the horizon. A cool breeze of what was left from the night before, danced through the drapes of Octavia's bedroom window, and the moon and stars still hung high in the sky. Today was going to be a good day. A different day.

Octavia was already wide awake, she wore a white sundress, a small bag straped across her shoulder, and held a neatly folded, dark cloak in her arms. She stood on the very edge of her windowsill and looked down, smiling; it was going to be a long fall to the ground. Her hair danced slightly in the updraft as she took a deep breath, taking in the cool night air, then smiled once more before stepping of the edge and plummeted downwards. Octavia laughed as she continued to free fall, playing a very dangerous game of chicken. The wind howled as it whipped at her hair and clothes.

Once she was about 30 feet or so from the ground, Octavia spread her wings out wide, sending her up high into the air. She smiled happily as she touched the clouds, weaving in and out. She loved it up here, in the sky. When she flew, she knew what it was like to be a bird, to be free. To be free of responsibility, from the tools of pain and suffering and war. To know and feel true happiness and freedom from it all.

 She soon arrived at the boarder between the two worlds. Octavia closed her wings, once again free falling until she was about 10 feet from the ground. She flaped her wings a few times then softly landed on her feet only a few feet away from the boarder. She then folded up her wings and donned the dark cloak that she brought with her. "There! now I look human. Or at the very least I don't look too much like a child of light." She thought silently looking quite satisfied with herself.

Cautiously, Octavia approach the boarder and stuck her hand through. The air was cold and quiet, and a thin layer of frost gathered on her skin, the very second she stuck her hand through the boarder. She took a deep breath and mustered every bit of resolve she could manage. "Today's the day." She murmered to herself, then stepped through the boarder. The air here was cold, lifeless, and silent and the sky was dark, locked in eternal nighttime. 

Slowly, ever so slowly, Octavia took a few cautious steps. After believing she was in no immediate danger, an intense feeling of excitement and wonder bubbled up within her to the point where she couldn't contain it. She let out a small happy squeel and jumped up and down, proud of herself, before quickly covering her mouth and catching herself. Octavia looked around nervously hoping nobody saw her. "Yaaay!" She whispered to herself happily, then giggled.

Octavia took one last look at the world of light, then hesitantly pressed forward. A thin layer of frost grew on the edges of her cloak and skin, her breath now visible, as she walked deeper into the dark forest of dead trees. 

Today was going to be a good day. A different day. A dangerous day.
