Alik's Mother

Alik's mother was a mysterious woman with multicolored hair that faded to white at the tips. She had animal ears and a tail, and she was always wearing a long cloak that hid her figure. Alik never knew her real name, but he called her "Mother". Mother was a powerful sorceress, and she taught Alik everything he knew about magic. She also told him stories about the world outside their village, and Alik dreamed of one day exploring it. When Alik was 16 years old, Mother disappeared. Alik searched for her everywhere, but he could not find her. He eventually gave up and returned to his village, where he lived a quiet life as a farmer. One day, when Alik was 30 years old, he was working in the fields when he saw a woman in a long cloak walking towards him. She had multicolored hair that faded to white at the tips, and animal ears and a tail. Alik knew immediately that this was his mother. He ran to her and embraced her, and she hugged him tightly. "I'm so glad I found you," Alik said. "I've missed you so much."
