The beginning of new life
This world is a mess of different things , some are apparent , some are hidden , some are bad and some are good, some things are forbidden , some are allowed but why man is always interested or drawn towards the things which are forbidden. why man can't be satisfied by the thing he has. why there is greed, for power , wealth, authority. why man is so cruel , why he is so dangerous.
my name is Victoria Philips Otto. i was born in Washington DC and the day i was born was the most sad day for my dad you know why , because i am a girl , he wanted a boy , a boy who could take his place in his sacred work. My dad mourned for weeks because a girl was born to him. was that my fault , being a girl. The binders have their strange rules and policies that they can have only one child , if a boy is born then he will become a binder to fulfill their sacred duties but if a girl is born to someone she will just serve them and then she will be married to other binder man and will serve him.
The struggles for my life started that day. Binders are men they don't women in their groups because they think women are not capable of doing their sacred jobs. The binders they protect human from the threats of magical world . they bind magical creatures which are highly dangerous to hell. they also have some kinda powers that i don't know how they get. my mom was not like other women in the binder society . she started training me since i was a child. she trained me to fight with weapons and without too. she taught fighting skills , survival skills. to be a binder you need to pass a test. they don't train women or girls for the test but boys.
their community is hidden to human and a very vastly spread community. They have their secret bases and academies to train the new binders. The community in which i was born is called as the Acrom. this is called so because they are the destroyers of the acrom . which i don't what it is . this society is situated somewhere remote in WASHINGTON DC . They have their council,homes,academy there. i have never seen the outside world. They don't let women out of the society, we don't interact with other humans. we have some gardens which are the only place of outside world i have seen. they have a school for girls where we study which was also opened because of my mother's efforts. because she wanted me to study.
so here i am, thinking all of these random thoughts a week before my 18th birthday. when i turn 18 i can challenge the council to test me to be a binder .
i have seen struggles in life, wishes that never came to reality, bullied by boys. who are treated superior in our society. but my mom wanted me to be different. my mom wanted me to be first female binder. she wanted me to create history. she said its my destiny to find the truth and light. but idd'nt understand what truth and light i needed to find.
A week passed like day, days like hours , hours like minutes and minutes like seconds and the final day came.
I got ready and went to the council. everyone was watching me like what is happening, what is she doing here. As i told you guys before they don't let us into their sacred chambers but i did . i went straight in the council and challenged the head of council Philips Otto my own freaking father.
