Sophia
I've been their captive and slave for as many years as I have been on this earth.
Never daring to dream or hope for a better life.
But when they decide to turn me into a baby maker... things change.
I will not let them force me to bring their spawn into the world.
So, along with my only friend, I ran.
Running away turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
I finally found where I belong and a family I didn't know existed.
But they found me, and now they want to take that from me too.
They'll learn soon enough exactly how protective a phoenix really is of who they love.

I don't know what I expected to find when I set off searching for Sophia, but tethered in a cage was not it.
They want to use me to get Sophia back, but if these mages think that my family will trade one member for another,
they're in for a big surprise.
We don't give up on each other.
I'm probably going to die in this cage, but it's better than her.. Right?
