By Kayla Matt
I Am Nyx
I am magic
Born to cast and fight
It is my destiny
To face the darkness
A warrior of the gods
Should I know anything else?
Fire in my hands
Before I could take step
Taking to spells
Like they were made for me
Reveling in duels
Am I only a weapon?
Raised to be a lady
A role that did not take
Bar brawls at night
An adopted rebel
With terrifying power
Am I even a woman?
Nightmare of Her Youth
Her earliest memory
Is of a mother’s warmth
Fringed by flame
That consumes the town
Licking at their feet
While demons hunt about
Devouring her people
Thrown into the hands
Of a man in red
His glowing staff aloft
She remembers
A mother’s sacrifice
Consumed by fire
To tear demons asunder
Check out Nyx in Legends of Windemere: Beginning of a Hero and Legends of Windemere: Prodigy of Rainbow Tower. Each book is for .99 cents. (Okay, she only shows up in the second book, but please buy both anyway.)




Charles, she seems like such a complex and conflicted character! Lovely poems, too.

She’s great. I think the depth on her is better than the other characters. The conflict isn’t as in your face as it could be. I don’t want to beat on it like a drum.
