Rising Winds of Fate
Chapter Six: Whispers of the Hidden Power

In the hushed corners of their small town, whispers had begun to circulate. Rumors had started to spread like wildfire, fueled by those who believed in the existence of full-blooded silvers, a secret lineage thought to be long extinct. Some speculated that the last true silver might be among them, while others argued vehemently that it could be a boy.

Amelia had become aware of the growing buzz, as snippets of conversations reached her ears during visits to the town with her aunt. She overheard hushed discussions in marketplaces, the tavern, and even among the town's elders, their voices tinged with both curiosity and fear.

One sunny afternoon, while browsing through the market stalls, Amelia couldn't help but listen in on a particularly animated conversation between two women, their voices barely above a whisper.

"I heard it's a girl," one of them murmured, her eyes darting around as if to ensure no one else was listening.

Her companion shook her head, equally discreet. "No, no, it must be a boy! The legends say it could be either, and this time, it could very well be a boy."

Amelia's heart skipped a beat as she discreetly moved closer, her curiosity piqued. Could they be talking about her? The excitement and apprehension swirled within her, and she struggled to concentrate on selecting fresh vegetables.

The women continued their conversation, speculating about the consequences of a full-blooded silver's return and the potential upheaval it could bring to their world. Fear and awe mingled in their voices as they discussed the prophesied love that would awaken the silver's true potential.

Amelia discreetly gathered her purchases, her thoughts racing. She knew she needed to speak to her aunt about what she had overheard. If the townsfolk were beginning to suspect the existence of a full-blooded silver, it was only a matter of time before they discovered her true identity.

Later that evening, in the quiet confines of their home, Amelia approached her aunt with a worried expression. "Aunt Eliza," she began cautiously, "I overheard something today in town. People are talking about full-blooded silvers, and they suspect one might exist."

Eliza's eyes widened with concern, and she motioned for Amelia to sit. "Tell me everything you heard," she urged. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Eliza's face grew solemn. "This is not a good sign," she admitted. "Our secrecy is at risk. If people start to believe that a full-blooded silver exists, they will seek answers. We must be prepared, Amelia."

The weight of their predicament pressed upon them. The countdown to Amelia's eighteenth birthday had taken on new significance, as the town's curiosity threatened to expose her true nature. Amelia and her aunt knew that they had to tread carefully in the days leading up to the momentous event, for the world beyond their doorstep was starting to close in on their hidden secret.
