History
Background
Someday Aidan O’Dwyer would come back for his little girl. That’s what he told Darcy the night he disappeared, and that was the hope she clung to through years of neglect and abuse by her adoptive parents, who’d discovered a little too late that maybe they didn’t want a child after all.
Well, Aidan died fighting the good fight, but his masters in the Stormcrow Society were happy to take charge of his bright, nubile, magically talented 16-year-old daughter, who by that time would just about have sold herself into slavery to get away from home forever. Which is more or less what happened.
The cult took Darcy, trained her, honed her talents, gave her a purpose in life. As difficult and painful as the training was, she never felt unwanted, never had to wonder what would happen if she crept downstairs to fetch herself dinner when her mother was in one of her moods, never had to wait until her father had left for work so he wouldn’t come into the bathroom while she was showering. There was no love, but there was belonging.
