The Little Witch: The Baptism of Ida | Volume I |

Have I not told you, child of mine, that it would come a day, the very day you would become a witch and you shall become one of the greatest.

Once you would see this world through your dark eyes, I shall always keep an eye on you wherever you go, I shall be there with you.

Fear not this day as you shall be surrounded by your fellows~witches and wizards of the Great North as they shall guide you through the world of witchery, the world of Magic, the world of the Enchanted Forest and once you would meet the White Witch, you would know by then, that you would be safe as no one shall ever hurt you or intend to ;

You shall follow her once she invites you to begin your own journey as to become, what you may expect the least to happen to you, a Witch.

Have I not told you, child of mine, the day I gave birth to you, the day I took you in my arms, I knew you would be the savior.

Fire in your eyes shall be, once you become the Witch, once you shall feel anger and courage all at once to protect our land, our island, then you shall be the savior, and when this day comes, I beg you to turn to Ice, to turn to Fire as they shall guide you, through your journey, to see the light in the darkness, for you to be able to protect us all, children and protectors of the Great North.

For it shall remain a secret, because once the others know, you shall be in danger.

Daughter of mine, I gave thee, the name of Ida, as it shall protect you through your journey.

My little witch.

My little daughter.

May power always protect you.

May wisdom always be part of your journey, little Ida.

My Ida.
