She was later rescued and adopted by the commoner Casull family. Her adoptive brother, Shannon, a swordsman, and Raquel, a sorceress, became her protectors. They travel through history protecting Pacifica's life from numerous assassination attempts by people who fear the outcome of the prophecy. Throughout the story the abilities of both brothers are constantly seen. By contrast, Pacifica is a typical sixteen-year-old girl. Pacifica's inability to defend itself is a repeated source of doubt.
