Challenge #05003-M254: Worthy Becoming

Find out who you are, and then do it on purpose -- Weirdlet

[AN: Hats off and respect to Dolly Parton, who lived by those words and is an example to us all]

There's no record of the first Halfbred. None know who they were, what their ancestry was, or how well they may have lived. Common conjecture posits that it was how Drakkonbred became a species, but some people will theorise anything.

In certain centuries, Halfbred folk were rare. It was easy for each and every one of them to feel like they were the only one on all of Alfarell. Zaneya could easily believe she was alone, were it not for her multitude of siblings. Dad was a Harukh, Mam was an Elf, and they were annoyingly goopy about being in love. Every two years[1], there was a new baby sibling filling out the household.

Seven younger, and one older. Each taught Elven magic and Harukh'ai rituals by each relevant parent. Each taught everything they needed to know to survive on their own because the Harukh'ai were largely Unwelcome in many places and its culture insisted on possessing such knowledge.
