They walked side by side through the thick wooded trees of the great forest.
She held the baby boy close to her as she looked down and smiled at him.
“Taliesin, do you think this is the right decision?” she asked turning her head up at her brother.
“Little sister Talia, if you believe this is the best for your little boy then I support you all the way.”
“Its just he hasn’t shown any ability at all, shouldn’t he have shown at least a little?” she said looking back down at her son.
“The most beautiful rose blooms later then the rest, perhaps he is just a late bloomer and in the end he might be the most powerful there is. Time will only tell.”
They came out of the forest and headed for a house. Once there, Talia knocked firmly on the door. Moments later the door is answered by a young man and woman.
“Would you like to come in and sit?” the couple said.
“No, but thank you, we can not stay long.” Spoke Talia
“Master, is this the child you spoke of?” they both asked as they bowed to her.
“Please no need for that. Yes this is he; his name is Xarisin it means Son of the Wind.” She told them looking at her son with a smile.
Tears began to flow down her soft cheeks.
She never though that she would ever give her young child away.
Taliesin put his arm on her shoulder to give her the sign that it was time.
Talia then slowly put the small child named Xarisin into the young woman’s arms.
“Thank you.” Talia said drying her tears away.
“No, Thank you for this greatest gift, considering we could not have one of our own.” The man said.
“You both were my best students, if he doesn’t show any sign of ability please keep it from him. It is best that he stays away from the world we live in.” Talia said.
“We understand Master.” The couple said.
They turned away and walked of, Taliesin put his arm around her and without looking back they both vanished.
