The Naming (part 1 continued)

The circle has existed for over a millenia. It was first brought together by Noah and his sons after the Great Flood. It was during those forty days and forty nights aboard the Ark that Noah and his family became the first members of The Circle and the members of The Circle became known as the Watchers. There was a time when all of mankind was trained to be a Watcher; when names were given to children to protect them against the slings and arrows of the Prince of Lies and his fallen comrades but as time moved forward the exact nature and beginning of The Circle faded from memory until all that was left were a handful of families that kept the Watcher Code and who trained thier children to take up the mantle when they passed. Imelda and Androse were one of those families and thier children Andrea Nicole, Gavin Otto, and Magnus Jayce were in the process of being trained to become Watchers. Not all children of these families are trained to become Watchers a child must pass a test each year of thier life beginning at age four. These test are designed to determine which area a members child may be best suited for. Imelda and Androse were both full Praetor Gaurds and it would not be long before thier eldest daughter Andrea passed her last test and came into the fullness of her name. In the meantime Imelda kept busy assisting the Circle with research and Androse helped with training the younger children two of which were his two sons Gavin and Magnus.
