THE TRIBRID

"Mia exclaimed, "Ugh, I just can't believe I have to go to Mystic Academy." She turned to her father, Aron. "Dad, you know I need this education to understand my abilities better, but it's hard to grasp when everyone sees me as just a werewolf. You taught me everything I know, and you're one of the strongest werewolves around." Aron sighed, trying to reason with her. "Mia, I wish you could see that going to the academy isn't just about fitting in. It's about growth and finding others like you. Your mother and Adam's passing has made life tough, but you can't let that define your future." "Maybe you understand, but it feels like an outcast's life," Mia interrupted, her voice tinged with frustration. "I fear things will only get worse at the academy. There's no mentor for someone like me." "I do understand, Mia," Aron reassured her. "But I'm making this decision for your own good, despite how it might hurt." His determination was clear as he added, "You are going, and that's final." With a heavy sigh, Mia trudged up the stairs to gather her belongings. She knew her father's decision was final, driven by his love for her welfare. Despite her resentment, she couldn't deny that he always acted with her best interests at heart.
