S T O R Y : After standing in place for a moment, Sun walked almost in a trance up to the stage. She was bestowed with a opal circlet with rubies in it, to represent that she was a SkyWing candidate in the Trials of Ascension. Sunrise put it on with shaking hands to cheers and Lady Peregrine announcing, “All of the candidates, please come to the castle tomorrow, at ten for the Training. Bring any possessions you would like too, for you will be leaving for the Trial Island in a few days.” The crowd dispersed and Sunrise stepped off the stage as her family rushed her. “Oh, I’m so proud of you!” cried Cloudwing, while embracing Sunrise. “We’ll make a special dinner to celebrate. Oh, and you’ll have to pack, too…” Sunrise tuned away, only half-listening to her mother. She would have to leave the island? For how long? The Trials could go on for months… Sun turned to Dusk. “How long do the Trials usually go on for?” “Oh, I’d say 6 months at the most.” Dusk replied. “But don’t worry,” he said, spotting her crestfallen face. “That’s only happened once. Usually it’s for 1 ½ months or so. Just a warning, though: I’ve heard they pack lots of trials into the first few days!” Sunrise smiled, relieved. She wouldn’t be away for so long after all! She chatted with her mother the rest of the way home, and when they reached their destination, she walked into her room and started wondering what she should pack. She grabbed her silk scarf and wound it around her neck, fingering the soft silk threads. She also grabbed her bag and packed in necessities and other things. She barely got any sleep, because she was worrying about everything that could go wrong. Yeah sorry this one is short
