Year 1986
Aurelian was no longer a little boy. At eight years old, he had changed more than time alone could explain. His face was still pale, his eyes as dark as silent wells... but his gaze was different.
It was the reflection of a soul awake, waiting, studying.
In the three years that had passed, he had not stopped training for a single day.
The early mornings found him still in the abandoned chapel, meditating on cold stone, channeling magic through body and soul, tracing mental patterns that only he understood.
