Raia is the daughter of the strongest magician in the world Kary. She was born in the year 925 of the magical calendar.
"Waaa waaa", "Congratulation your lordship she is a..." "A what? Siena", said Kary, the strongest magician in the world a tall man in his thirties with a toned build flaming red eyes, and long black hair, to his daughter future nanny, "Please your lordship I beg of you to cancel the party," said the nanny literally on her knees covering the body of the girl that she was holding in her arms while bowing.
"A what? Siena" angrily repeated Kary not even acknowledging what she just said mana was now beginning to radiate from his body, when all of a sudden it just stopped cause he remembered that both his wife who had just given birth, and his daughter who had just born were weak and couldn't handle mana pressure at this moment.
"She-She is blind my lordship, please cancel the party it will be a humiliation for the strongest magician in the world to have a daughter that is blind and will not be able to learn magic", deep down she didn't mean a single word of what she said even if it sounded hurtful she already loved the baby to bits and was just putting up an act to get her employer Kary to drop the party so that the girl could live in peace, without the stigma of being blind and the pressure of being the failed firstborn.
"She is what? Siena"Now Kary's magic difficult to maintain within himself due to the boiling anger, "She is blind my lordship" repeated fearful Siena, a charming young woman in her mid-twenties with green eyes and blue hair, still kneeling and bowing not showing the baby to her father.
"Blind ... my firstborn is blind the heavens must be playing a prank on me, they don't want my genes to be passed on," said Kary now almost laughing out of desperation, "My child, no it's impossible my child is blind" now butted in the mother of the girl Sara, a good looking woman a little older than Siena with blue eyes and blonde hairs.
"I'm sorry but we can't cancel the party it's better for the girl to have this stigma from birth than to have all the kids know it the first day of school in ten years," said Kary leaving Siena shocked but what shocked her more is what he said after that, "Oh and that child name I will let you pick it if Sara doesn't want to, the only thing I will give that child is my last name and regretfully so".
These were his words before going out of the room and closing the door with a loud bang that made the child start crying again.
"I will too leave the choice to you, Siena," said Sara, "Margaret escort me to my room I need to rest," she said right after calling for a maid just outside the room, and with that Siena and the baby were the only people left in the room.
"Shh, it's okay stop crying Siena will get you a bath a name, and some clothes pretty soon".
After the conversation, Siena went to the bath and started washing the newborn while she thought of a name fitting the beautiful girl.
In the meantime in the party room, a big 200 square meters lounge area with a balcony connected at the floor by two curved symmetrical stairs made in a white marbled material, the rest of the room was white and red with golden ornaments and chandeliers, where the guests who had just finished arriving from the entire nation, even the king family was present Kary made his entrance from the door behind the balcony.
It was clear he was not in a good mood and the entire room had gone silent thinking there was some sort of complication during birth, and one if not both between his wife or child had died, then after what felt like hours he finally spoke up "Hello everyone thanks for coming to my childbirth party but sadly this party will be canceled after this announcement".
Everyone gasped silently thinking the worst had happened, "Stay calm no one died", now everyone was even more confused, cause if no one died then what possible reason could be so important to cancel his childbirth party.
"My child if I even want to call that thing like this is... blind the worst curse for a magician".
Now the gasps were not silent anymore all of the guests were shocked to say the list, blind!
The first child of Kary the most powerful mage in the entire world was blind and the most surprising fact was that he said it publicly which was, basically a death sentence for that child, "Is the child a boy or a girl and what is the name if I am allowed to ask your grace" asked one of the boldest nobles out there duke Garcia, a fat and annoying man in his late thirties, "She is a girl as for the name I don't know neither me nor my wife gave her a name it will be her nanny to give it to her but her surname will be mine so you will recognize her instantly at school if it's the reason you are asking duke Garcia.
And that's all from me the party is canceled have a good night everyone".
After that, everyone went home apart from the king and his family, even if Kary was their friend and like an uncle to their children they didn't approve of what he did, cause like this he condemned his daughter for a life of bullying more than what would have happened if he didn't say anything, so the king, Klaus, a stoic man well built and tall with short brown hairs and eyes, went to talk to Kary, and his wife Laura, a charming lady with black hairs and eyes, with their son Marcus and their daughter Lilia, two twins born three years prior went to the bath hoping the nanny didn't already finish the baby first bath.

In the bathroom Siena was thoroughly washing the girl in the hot water when the doors opened revealin a worried and exausted queen with two small children who's eyes lit up seeing the water, "Mommy can we go in to the bath" they both said in unisom, at that moment Siena realised who had just entered the bath room, a big room with a thermal bath big enough that 30 people could stay inside at the same time without feeling cramped.
"Your majesty the queen w-what are you doing here" said Siena bowing as much as she could without submerging the child who's name was still to decide, "Relax Siena I'm here to check on Kray and Sara's daughter" said the queen now noticing the kids pouting becouse they haven't gotten an anwer yet, "You both can ask Siena if you can take a bath" continued queen Laura.
"Obviously my queen I would only dare to ask if they can please be careful cause the baby is still a new born and is quite fragile" responded Siena being careful to be as courtful as possible, "Siena there is no need to be so formal, moreover, Kray that insensitive bastard annouced to everyone that his child is a blind girl so that her future is as screwed up as possible" replied angrily the queen.
"Your majesty I understand that we are in private but please I would sincerely ask of you to restrain from cursing in front of the kids" said a worried Siena, awaiting repercussions as she had been rude to the queen "Oh", said the queen covering her mouth with both hands "Kids you don't have to repeat what I just said, it's a bad word and it's not to be said ok?"
"Ok, mum we will not say it," the twins said still in unison which surprised Siena, "Now on to more important things you two go change if you want to bath," the queen said pointing to the twins who instantly ran to change and go bathe as quickly as possible while the queen sat at the border of the bath "Now Siena did you understand what I said a second ago?" the queen asked.
"Yes, I understood. Frankly with how he reacted saying that the heavens didn't want his genes to be passed on I anticipated something like that to some degree" the nanny answered "What did he say? For the love of all that is holy why? Only because his firstborn isn't what he wanted," the queen said seeming almost exhausted at Siena answer.
"Still I love this girl more than myself already and I will do everything in my power to make her feel loved, appreciated, and... Raia her name will be Raia!" Siena excitedly announced.
"Raia is our cousin, mom?" Marcus asked, "She is right?" continued Lilia, "She is my dears but she is still too young to play so be careful around her okay?" their mum said, "Okay Mommy" they both responded jumping in the bath, at that same moment Siena started to tear up, near full on crying "What is happening Siena are you okay?" asked the queen, "It-it's okay my queen it-it's just that I was prepared for Raia to have a lonely life till she started school where she was definitely going to be bullied for being blind.
I'm just so grateful for what you have just said.
At least two people at the academy won't bully her, it's already something to be happy about".
The queen realized what Siena had just said and added, "Siena don't worry I will manage to make Lilia and Marcus play with Raia when she is old enough. Like this she will have someone to rely on for at least three years".
Siena watched the queen and as more and more tears started filling up her eyes as she understood the meaning of the queen words, "Thanks your majesty. You really have my thanks. I will never be thankful enough for what you are doing" Siena said.
At that the queen replied, "My husband is going to talk to Kray and maybe... but I don't assure anything he could find an even better solution, but I can't say for sure. For that I'm really sorry".
Siena was shocked as to why was she doing so much for her and the daughter of someone she personally barely knew so she asked exactly that and the response was really surprising, "Siena. you were my only real friend in school. I would have liked to hire you myself, but Sara got to you first and you seemed to like your job there. That's why I didn't do anything. As for the girl, first she is basically your daughter now even if she has her father's last name. Second, her father is a really good friend for my husband and like an uncle to my kids. So if I have the chance to help his family, even if he doesn't consider her as that, I will do it".
At the same time in Raia's father office, the door slammed open "Kray what were you thinking? Do you even understand what you just did to your own daug" "Yes Klaus I know", Kray interruped, "And that is exatly why I did it, that thing don't deserve anythig more than my surname and that is alredy to much but to that I am obligated legally so..." "You are an idiot Kray, that girl didn't do anything it's not her fault and yet knowing that much you condamned her before her first day of life even ended", the king said fuming with anger, "Yes it's not har fault the heavens decided my genes were to strong to pass on, so they decided that I should have a cursed daugther, she will never be a magician and that is all that matters to me if she can't be a magician she will not be my daughter and that is all I have to say get out Klaus", rebutted Kray anger returning to him when he fainally managed to calm down a bit,
"NO that is not all Kray she is destined to be alone, thankfully my wife and I decided that at least our kid will have a relationship with her cause otherwise she will be alone with her nanny all her life, and will be obviusly bullied at school so, do you truly understand the consequences of your action", continued the king, "I said I do Klaus I know full well what will happen to her I just don't care, what happen to that thing is not my problem, you can even take both her and the nanny with you for all I care do YOU understand Klaus", commented Kray, "Yes I do Kray I understand that you are no longer the friend that I knew of you are just a man who only care about power and only power nothing else, a lone man with a god complex. From here on out you are banned from coming to the palace unless you are summoned or until I give you permission again do you understand Margrave Akira, (Small tribute to Akira Toriyama may he rest in peace), also thanks for the idea I will do exactly as you say I will take both the nanny and your daughter to the palace so that they will live a somewhat normal life, especially your daughter".
"Don't ever call her that again in front of me Klaus", Kray snapped and the king exited the room slamming the door as he was fuming.
Then going towards the bath to find his wife he encountered them already out and probably going to the baby's room, "Your Majesty the king", Siena bowed, "Daddy", the twins ranto their dad hugging him, "Dear" the queen said kissing him on his right cheek.
"How did the discussion with Kray went Klaus," Said the queen, "Awfully like you probably predicted I berated him for doing what he did but he said that that thing like he called his daughter was a curse and if his child wasn't able to become a magician then she was not his child. Then he suggested something interesting and I accepted so Senia and..." "Raia Klaus," said the queen, "Siena and Raia you are both coming to live with us in the palace".
And with that Senia finally broke down crying thanking and apologizing at the same time, so much that it took 5 minutes to finally let her calm down, after that Siena went to grab the essentials for the girl the first night after which the royal family would have furnished two rooms a nursery for Raia and a bedroom for Siena.
