The Light of Demacia
((A month passes between Lux's recall to Demacia and her return to the Institute. The official news (and therefore what everyone should know) is that Lux had to leave on an urgent mission to Demacia.
This new Lux will be referred to as Luxanna to tell the two apart.
This post is open to people who have known her well or have at least talked to her (because drama hooray - except you Darius go away :P)
Let the fun begin!))
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The carriage stopped outside the Institute, and a young woman climbed out. She paused to survey the building through narrowed eyes.
Luxanna Crownguard was back, and, standing in front of the Institute, even there one could see that something had changed about her. Her stance was straighter, her back like a plank; her eyes, once bright summery blue, were now a cold hard ice that would make even a Freljordian pause; her face, once open, was poised, cool and emotionless.
The woman pushed the double doors open, walking with purposeful steps down the hall. A brief memory of her Judgement popped up, but she dismissed it briskly. While she'd been weak back then, in front of her brother, she was strong now - the epitomy of Demacian military training and magical power.
Luxanna's path took her past rooms, doors, training centres, and more. Her walk took her outside to a garden, where she paused, wondering why she'd come this way.
A sparkle caught her eye, and Luxanna looked down to see a crystal. A faint memory popped up: A crystal flaring with light and magic, and a flash of white teeth as a blonde boy beamed at her-
As quick as the vision appeared, it was gone again, and Luxanna shook her head. Why had she come out here? She had no time for trivialities. Turning to go back inside, she went motionless as she spotted someone and realised that she had not been alone in the garden. Her hand dropped to her baton, secure in her belt, and she automatically stepped back into a defensive stance as her gaze took in the unknown person in her view.
Whoever they were, and whether their intentions were beneficial or harmful, they would soon discover that Luxanna Crownguard was as much a prodigy as every rumour made her out to be.
