Dixie

Ordinary One

Dixie hailed from a land where wolves could ignite fires from their paws and sprouted wings from between their shoulder blades. Some could increase a plant's growth by tenfold while some had webbed paws and breathed underwater. An endless possibility of powers sprawled the eternal paradise Dixie's pack lived in, yet she received no such power.

She was mercilessly bullied by peers and frowned upon by her elders because of her lack of abilities. Once she reached adulthood, she abandoned the cursed paradise and journeyed into the world full of rain and shine and wolves like her. The moment she laid eyes on an oasis in a sandstorm that reminded her so much of her former pack, she knew that she couldn't live anywhere else.

Io welcomed her in and she could relate to being outcasted by her pack. However, she didn't think as highly of her healer, Jericho, the one could speak to the butterflies that whispered around him. Dixie believed she'd escaped the grasps of otherworldly powers and detested that she never could.

He broke through her though. His patience and care broke through her hardened past and she confided in him about the wolves whose scornful eyes forever scorched her soul.

Ever since that day, she began falling in love with the wolf who whispered to the butterflies.
