"Storms, Blood, and Arcana" - Chapter 1

Masterlist
Aveline hated to let her trusted halberd grow dusty and unused, hidden beneath her bed, but she was worried — worried that she would somehow be recognized if anyone saw it, worried that word would reach home, worried that she’d be found.
She shook her head, banishing the anxiety as best she could, before pulling her dark hair into a tight braid and getting ready for another busy day as the small village’s only apothecary. She wasn’t bothered by it; she enjoyed the work, and it helped keep her mind off how much she missed home, and her family, and—
Aveline shook her head again and pinched the bridge of her nose. She couldn't allow her thoughts to spiral like that. “Focus, girl,” she told herself firmly. She glanced in the mirror and grimaced slightly at the sight of her neck. She adjusted the collar of her tunic so that it hid her most unusual feature and made her way to the kitchen to whip up a quick breakfast for herself and open shop.
Aveline’s life as an apothecary had begun when she helped a small boy who had fallen and scraped is hands and knees. Aveline had used the skills she’d learned during her time in Katolis to disinfect, treat, and patch up the boy’s injuries. The town she lived in was small, so word spread quickly, and before she knew it, she was the town’s healer.
“Evie...?”
Aveline turned as the front door opened, one of her fellow townspeople using the false name she’d taken on. He seemed to have a rash on his arms, and Aveline sighed. “You fell in poison ivy again, didn't you?” she asked calmly.
The young man nodded shamefully, and Aveline silently plucked a ceramic jar from her shelf of ointments and salves. She donned a pair of protective gloves and carefully applying the ointment to her patient’s arms. “There you go,” she said, thoroughly washing the gloves. “That should calm it down by morning, so long as you don’t fall in again.”
“Er, right,” the young man said in embarrassment, picking up on Aveline’s mildly chastising tone. “Thanks, Evie.”
The clumsy man left, and Aveline barely got a moment to catch her breath before she heard a rapid series of knocks on her door. “One second,” she called, though she felt a chill down her spine. Her patients normally just came in; that was the arrangement. Her quarters were separated from the shopfront by a locked door, so she didn't mind people letting themselves in. So, to hear somebody knock, and that furiously, made her uneasy.

“Come in. Oh, hello, Aveline,” King Harrow greeted when Aveline stepped into the throne room.
“Opeli said you wished to see me, Your Highness?” she said, as composed as always.
“Yes. Several people, including Soren and your Aunt Amaya, have come forward with concerns about your behavior,” the King said, standing up from his place on the throne and walking over to stand before Aveline.
Aveline’s brow furrowed slightly, and the look in her deep brown eyes seemed almost troubled, though it was nearly impossible to tell with her. “My behavior? Have I done something wrong?”
“No, and that’s the problem.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Aveline… ever since your mother and I got married, you always…how do I put this…” Harrow paused. “...stayed within the lines.”
“I’m afraid I still don’t know what you mean.”
The King sighed. “That’s what I mean, right there. You say you’re confused, but you don’t show it. Nothing in your voice or expression or body language ever give anything away. Ever since your mother died, you’ve been so…closed off. You’re allowed to feel, you know. You’re allowed to have fun, or be angry or upset or sad, or to be in pain. But you don’t let yourself. Why are you so against expressing yourself?”
Aveline thought about the King’s words. “I appreciate your concern, Your Highness, but this is just how I am.”
Harrow sighed and gripped Aveline’s shoulders. “Aveline, blood or not, you’re my daughter. I love you as if you were my own child. I saw you have fun with Callum and Ezran when you were a child. I know you aren’t incapable of feeling. I just want to know why you so rarely…show yourself. Your true self.”
“Your Highness, I promise you, I couldn’t act differently if I tried.”
The king sighed, and it was clear that he didn’t fully believe her. “Very well. You can go. I’m sure I interrupted your studies.”
Aveline curtsied and backed out of the throne room.
She looked to the side and saw the figure of the King’s closest advisor—and her least favorite member of the castle staff—leaning against the wall, as if waiting for her. “Princess,” he greeted.
“Lord Viren,” Aveline said, her tone a little icier than it usually was. “Can I help you with something?”
“My son mentioned that you got injured during training last week,” Viren said, “and that you didn’t go to see any healers.”
“It was just a scratch,” Aveline dismissed. “It didn’t need any special attention.”
Viren sighed. “With all due respect, Princess, you are very stubborn.”
“That’s interesting,” Aveline said, “coming from you.”
“You don’t seem to trust me.”
“You haven’t given me any reason to,” Aveline said. “Quite the opposite. Are we done here? I was in the middle of some studying when I was summoned by the King.”
“Yes, of course. My apologies for keeping you, Princess.”
Aveline nodded and made her way back to the library.
---
“Y—yes, yes,” Aveline called as the knocking continued. “Yes, I’m—I’m coming.”
She finished setting her gloves aside to dry and opened the door to the shopfront. She had been ready to assess what needed done, but the only word she could say, staring down at the two human boys—one of whom was holding something that looked unnervingly like a dragon egg—and a moonshadow elf awaiting her, was: “Oh.”

Asielverzoeken toegenomen in derde kwartaal 2022
In het derde kwartaal van 2022 hebben 10,6 duizend mensen een eerste asielverzoek in Nederland ingediend. Dat waren er 3,6 duizend meer dan in het kwartaal ervoor. Het aantal nareizigers steeg met bijna 500 mensen naar 3,6 duizend. Dat meldt het CBS op basis van de nieuwste asielcijfers van de IND.
In 2020 en 2021 werden er minder eerste asielverzoeken gedaan en kwamen er minder nareizigers naar Nederland. Dit kwam vooral door de reisbeperkingen tijdens de coronapandemie. Na het opheffen van de reisbeperkingen nam het aantal asielverzoeken en nareizigers vanaf de tweede helft van 2021 weer toe.
In het derde kwartaal van 2022 dienden 10,6 asielzoekers een eerste asielverzoek in, 3 555 meer dan het kwartaal ervoor en 4 120 meer dan het eerste kwartaal van dit jaar. Het verschil met het derde kwartaal van 2021 is minder groot (1 790 meer asielverzoeken).
Ruim 4 op de 10 zijn Syriër
In het derde kwartaal deden 4 605 Syriërs een eerste asielverzoek. Dit aantal is verdubbeld ten opzichte van het tweede kwartaal van 2022, toen er 2 260 eerste verzoeken werden gedaan. Net zoals in voorgaande kwartalen waren de Syriërs de grootste groep met aanvragen.Het aantal Afghaanse asielzoekers is, vergeleken met vorig kwartaal, met 58 procent gestegen naar 995 asielverzoeken. Na Syriërs en Afghanen vormden Turken (935) de derde groep.
Verdere stijging aantal nareizigers
Er kwamen 3 605 nareizigers naar Nederland in het derde kwartaal van 2022, 465 meer dan het kwartaal daarvoor (+15 procent). Ten opzichte van het eerste kwartaal van 2022 steeg het aantal nareizigers met 41 procent. Syriërs bleven de grootste groep nareizigers (68 procent).Het aantal Turkse nareizigers steeg met 220 (+86 procent) naar 475 in het derde kwartaal. Het aantal nareizigers uit Eritrea en Iran bleef nagenoeg gelijk.
Oekraïne en Rusland
Door de oorlog in Oekraïne kwamen er dit jaar meer Oekraïners naar Nederland dan eerdere jaren. Zij hoeven geen asielaanvraag in te dienen om in Nederland te mogen verblijven of te werken. Een aantal van hen deed dat wel. In het tweede kwartaal van 2022 deden 15 Oekraïners een asielverzoek en in het derde kwartaal waren dat er 5. Uit andere CBS-cijfers blijkt dat tussen eind februari en begin oktober ruim 95 duizend Oekraïners zijn ingeschreven bij een Nederlandse gemeente.
Mensen met een Russische nationaliteit deden 80 eerste asielverzoeken in het derde kwartaal van 2022. Dit was minder dan in het eerste en het tweede kwartaal van 2022, toen er respectievelijk 120 en 170 Russen een eerste asielaanvraag in Nederland deden.
