Kimcharly Quezzley had always felt out of place, even in a world where magic didn't exist__until that morning...

Kimcharly Quezzley adjusted the strap of her pastel jumper and glanced at the crowded street, the sunset painted the cobblestone streets pink, and for a moment, everything felt normal, with each step, The matches she sold glimmered faintly as the moonlight start to appear...“Kimcharly has black hair with soft bangs, striking black eyes, fair skin, and a sprinkle of freckles across her nose.”

Many years ago, Kimcharly ran away from the orphanage, and she sat at an empty street, shivering, Life in the orphanage has been harsh and lonely, The orphanage was cold and gray, the walls whispering loneliness and rules she never wanted to follow. Kimcharly’s heart ached for freedom, for warmth, for a place where she could belong. One night, she slipped out quietly, leaving behind the life that had never felt like hers.

Kimcharly hunched over her tiny basket, the matches rattling softly as she walked the dim streets. Her stomach growled with hunger, a sharp reminder of the cold, lonely orphanage she had left behind. Every step was heavy, but her heart ached more for warmth and kindness than for food. suddenly, Abartomey and Marjo Quezzley knelt beside her, treated her as she is their own daughter, offering comfort and warmth...

Through, their pockets were nearly empty, From that day on, She sold matches along the street to help their modest home, but even in the cold and struggle, she knew she finally found a family

One chilly evening, as Kimcharly shook her basket of matches, a soft chirping sound caught her attention, Perched atop a lamp post, is a strange tiny, plump, round bird like a fluff ball, with fluffy feathers and a delicate tiny reindeer-like Antlers... its eyes sparkled in intelligence and wisdom, and its whispers seemed almost like secrets carried on the wind, Kimcharly froze, almost mesmerized, as the little creature flitted gracefully from lamp to lamp.

Without thinking, she followed, weaving through narrow streets, her curiousity pulling her onward, too focused on the mysterious creature, she didn't know where it will lead, only she is interested to see where this mysterious strange bird go

Rounding a corner too quickly, she collided with someone, a woman with Auburn hair on a bun... "Oh! I'm sorry! " Kimcharly gasped, bowing slightly, grabbing her basket on the floor

The woman smiled gently, her eyes kind. "it's quite alright dear, are you hurt? "

"No... I'm fine, " Kimcharly replied softly, her cheeks burning. "I'm... I'm Kimcharly Quezzley... "

"Kimcharly Quezzley" The woman repeated, nodding thoughtfully. "I'm Laurica Gizzleton, it's a pleasure to meet you Kimcharly"

Kimcharly's awe and curiosity didn't fade, even as she introduced herself, Laurica's warm demeanor made her feel oddly safe, as if the world isn't entirely cold and harsh, Little did Kimcharly know, this chance encounter would be the start of something far greater than she ever imagined

Finally, the day came to an end, and Kimcharly trudged home with her basket lighter than before. She opened the door to see a familiar face instead of her adoptive parents. Laurica stood in the dim hallway, speaking softly with Marjo Quezzley. The two seemed to talk about something important, glances exchanged in secrecy.

“Kimcharly, dear, go to your room,” Marjo said gently, guiding her inside. “We’ll talk later.”

Obedient but curious, Kimcharly tiptoed into her room and closed the door quietly behind her. She pressed herself against the wall, listening. Her ears caught fragments of conversation.

“…she needs to attend Narinquelton… the magical school…” Laurica said softly.

“…yes, it’s important for her safety and growth…” Marjo replied.

Kimcharly’s eyes widened. Magical school? She had never heard of such a place. But before she could gather more information, the conversation ended abruptly, leaving her with a swirl of curiosity and excitement.

Very early on sunrise, the sunlight started to shine brighter, rays of sunlight entering the windows of The Quezzley's cobbled cottage which smells of fresh flowers surrounding the area... people's windows opened, some started the morning chatter, others head to work on bicycles like it is a very normal morning

Kimcharly was in her room, on a night dress, writing in her diary ever since she forgot to write on it yesterday, her mind racing...

The image of the weird strange circular bird with a tiny beak and antlers on a lamppost yesterday still clear and fresh in her mind, she can't stop thinking about it, as well as the woman she bumped onto yesterday named Laurica, she remembered Laurica's conversation with her parents Marjo and Bartomey Quezzly about a odd magic school named narinqu? or whatever that was, was a very weird name you will not hear everyday, plus, what is that circular bird with Antlers?

Kimcharly head downstairs into her usual pastel jumper but in a different color, and a white underdress, her mind still racing...

"Good morning mom" Kimcharly smiled as she saw a luggage packed with her clothes,. "mom, are we going somewhere? " Kimcharly asked curiously, heart beating as her heart knows what's going on

"Kimcharly, my dear... you are going to Narinquelton, the same school I've been into when I was young... Your going to love it there" Her mom Marjo answered, but a hint of sadness but happy in her voice

"Mom, what's wrong? " Kimcharly asked, feeling very uncertain but worried

"Kimcharly, sweetie, I think its time for you to know the truth... Laurica will tell you everything, you may already know her, "kimcharly's dad Bartomey answered, feeling a bit uneasy

The door creaked open and a woman with familiar Auburn hair showed up, it's Laurica Gizzleton

" Kimcharly, dear, are you ready? " Kimcharly asked in her usual kind demeanor, Kimcharly's mom marjo hugged her tight. "I'll miss you sweetie, see you next year... Don't worry, everything was going to be okay, just listen to Laurica and you'll find out the truth, okay? I love you"Marjo's eyes got teary as she pulls away, Kimcharly just nodded, keeping her eyes from getting teary as if deep inside, she is very anxious...

...the sunlight was fully awake, as Laurica and Kimcharly head outside the front door of the cottage, their shoes clacking as they walked onto the cobbled floor, Kimcharly looked at her parents one last time, Marjo's melancholic smile and Bartomey comforting Matjo before stepping inside the brown carriage, feeling a bit anxious but nervous, the words "you'll find out the truth" echoed in her head as she sat in the carriage, waving goodbye...

◦•●◉✿ ✿◉●•◦

Kimcharly was looking outside the view of the carriage, all she can see now was trees and endless landscapes, the horse clacking was the only noise heard, but until Laurica spoke

"Kimcharly, I want to tell you something... even you're parents know about since the very beginning... ", Kimcharly looked at Laurica, showing that she is listening

" Kimcharly, me and marjo are sisters, your mother, was adopted by my family, and we treated her like our own family... and we both studied In Narinquelton, a magical school, everything there was so magical from enchantments into animalogy classes, and there, I met Kimberly riverdew, and Charlie Whistlesnew, I became close friends with them, just after Narinquelton, they got married, and have a child, a daughter, but after two days of her birth, both of them suddenly disappeared, varnished without a trace, and their daughter was sent to an orphanage to be taken care of, and their daughter was you, Kimcharly Whistlesnew.. "

The carriage finally came to a halt, the air now smells of greenery in the Middle of the forest path, Kimcharly came to look outside, all she could see was tall trees and bushes, nothing exciting...

Laurica led Kimcharly as they stepped outside the carriage, Fresh air, fresher than the village moving swiftly upon them

At last, Laurica held out a strange looking stone, shaped like a star, but weirdly sparkling like a galaxy and was colored black...

Laurica threw it at the spot, and it blasted a little revealing a faint smell of smoke and a portal was now visible in sight

Kimcharly was flabbergasted, clapping her hands on her mouth, she never ever saw such a thing, her mind racing, where will that portal go? What is that star shaped stone?

"Kimcharly, this portal will lead us inside Wisteria Hollow, that is where you'll buy your Narinquelton Equipment, are you ready? " She offered a kind hand, when Kimcharly offered her hand, Feeling very nervous, Kimcharly and Laurica entered the portal

At first, Kimcharly felt a weird feeling, The air suddenly got stronger and colder but not knocking her away.Andnd all she could see was nothing, not color black, not the surroundings, just nothingness... until, colors start to appear revealing, revealing Wisteria Hollow, Kimcharly looked around in Amazement and wonder, her eyes wide, not believing what she's seeing.

Nestled in a secluded valley stood Wisteria Hollow, a village cradled by the roots and branches of an impossibly vast wisteria tree. Its trunk towered like a pillar of ancient magic, wide enough to house a dozen cottages within its bark alone, and its branches stretched outward like welcoming arms, heavy with curtains of lavender blossoms.

The homes of the villagers were far from ordinary. Some were built at ground level, crafted from riverstone and sun-faded timber, standing slightly crooked as if they had grown rather than been constructed. Others clung directly to the tree, fitted into its crevices and wrapped around its limbs like barnacles on a whale.

Higher still were daring dwellings suspended on wooden platforms, their porches overlooking an ocean of purple petals below. Stairways spiraled around the trunk, stitched together with bridges of rope and polished wood, swaying gently with each passerby. Instead of lantern posts, residents hung glass orbs along the pathways, each filled with fireflies or softly glowing moss, casting a dreamy haze across every step.

Above the village, half the sky shimmered beneath a canopy of wisteria blooms, tinting the world in constant twilight. Sunlight that managed to slip through the blossoms arrived in streaks of lilac and pale gold, dappling rooftops and walkways like scattered stardust. The ground was forever dusted in fallen petals, so thick that footsteps made no sound at all.

Beyond the reach of the tree’s shadow, the world remained bright and clear. But within Wisteria Hollow, everything moved slower, softer—as if time itself obeyed the rhythm of the falling blooms.

Kimcharly couldn't believe it, there is no way this is real, as if, this looks like a dream, too dreamy to be real… She tries to wake herself up by pinching herself, but whenever she does... she is still there…?

"Let's go Kimcharly, let's buy your wand, are you ready? " Laurica said calmly with her Kind demeanor, Kimcharly was too speechless to speak and just nodded

They head inside one of the shops, "Enchanter's Twigs", As they both entered, The shop was smelled mostly of Wood and polish, The whole shop interior was covered in shelves full of boxes and boxes of wands, and an old man with a crooked nose showed up, wearing circular glasses" Ah! Another Student for today, I am Mr. Davin Ritcherback,Here to get your wand?" Kimcharly nodded, As Davin picked out a wand box, as he opened it, it revealed a black polished wood, The wand was finely polished, smooth as glass beneath the fingers. At its tip bloomed a delicate crown of swirling metal — not straight like a normal wand’s edge, but curling in elegant loops, as though shaped by wind. The gold formed a heart-shaped frame, cradling a single gemstone at its center, glowing softly like a captured star. It was less a wand and more a miniature scepter, regal in design yet perfectly balanced for spell work

"You can wave it, lets see if it is perfect for you",Davin said, Kimcharly, too excited and look at it at awe, she wave on a swirl, sparkles appeared at the wand tip and the sparks shimmered and swirls revealing something from her imagination, A puppy with long ears flapping on the air

" Ah! yes! you just accidentally used The Imagery Enchantment, it shows what the user is thinking about, or even whats in your imagination, A first year just mastered it at first try, but accidental, how marvelous! that enchantment can be tiring, and capturing the image in your mind clearly was also hard work, well done!" Davin Clapped his hands, surprised

The image disappeared as Kimcharly stared at her wand, cannot believe what's happening right now, "Kimcharly, I am sure you'll get high marks in enchantment classes, first years, including me many years ago, struggles to use the imagery charm,i'm proud of you, " Laurica assured
