He always believed that the family elders were incurably stubborn and rebelled against their wishes at every opportunity.įinally, Gusion was given the chance to prove himself, when the time came for him to take the Paxley family's most important test - a rite of passage into adulthood. The patriarch's fourth son, Gusion, exhibited a high affinity towards light elements at a very early age, but rather than spend his days with his nose buried in a book studying spells, Gusion would use his control over light to imbue himself with the speed, to run laps of the family estate in mere minutes, and to enchant old ceremonial swords with powerful magical properties of the Holy light. Gusion, however, was determined to break the mold. In their eyes, the path of the magician is the most sacred and noble vocation there is, and all those who brandish a sword in battle are merely considered as insubstantial weaklings and dim-witted fools. The Paxley family is one of the most powerful, proud and prestigious magic families in the Land of Dawn, and each of it's member is raised to become a mage of the finest order.
