(I started drabble practice. I have a list of words and a list of characters. I roll a die to see what happens. Aura and her older sibling complex is first.)
Aurania watched Tristan walk away from her; his back tall and shoulders broader than she remembered from before. She wasn’t really sure when it happened, but the baby brother she was so used to protect was now someone far more powerful than herself; someone far more capable, and strong enough to carry his own weight. He didn’t need her anymore to tell him what was best, or explain how to hold his sword the right way. Somewhere along the way her brother became a man; and a burden that she could no longer carry. He didn’t need her to anyway.
