Lorian - Part 1

Writing another story for my English class... Enjoy! Comment and rate too! :D The chapters are meant to be relatively short!
Onyx walked through the Lorian Forest, slowly, and carefully. She walked along the path, now covered in snow. She could see her own reflection in the lake nearby, and she felt great. Her feet made a crushing noise, as they squashed the snow below them into a little blob. There was a huge Oak tree, meters, and meters high, and she couldn't resist! She got her grip on the first branch, and swung her legs over. She let her head and hands hang down towards the ground, and she closed her eyes as falling snow hit her head, and the icy snowflakes turned into water droplets.

When she decided it was time to go, she dropped down on the ground, and followed the path, once again. Her hair was shining, and reflecting off the snow. It looked unusually white today, probably because the snow filled it up. Her purple mittens were so eye-catching that she wondered if she should take them off, in case a Lorian Fairy came by, and chased her away for ruining the peace of the Forest.
Onyx's black eyes twinkled and shone like stars as she finally reached Plumkiville Village, the center of the winter season in the Land of the Lorian Warrior.

The First Lorian Warrior, was a great great great great grandpa of Onyx's, and since she was an only child, and an orphan, she had to continue the quest of the Lorian Warriors...And that quest, is to get the Sacred Plumkiville Book back to the king!
Onyx had reached the village of Plumkiville within an hour, and she found the shop she was looking for ; the magician's store! This place had all the chemicals, and potions you could ask for, and one of them included the Dragon Blinding potion! This was a favorite of Onyx's, as she had won so many fights with the help of it.

'Hello Master,' she said gloomily, in a very tired way 'Have you got the potion I ordered last full moon?' she added, looking around the room. It was dark, and the fire was lit. Just the way it normally was.
'Ah, Onyx, my loyal customer! Yes, I do have it. In fact, I just finished making it! Let me just put it into a little bottle. Or, do you want two, just in case?' he asked, widening his eyes, so that they popped out even more!
'Thank you Master, two will be fine. Have I told you about that quest I have to go on? It's so strange. I never thought that I'd go on one of those again.' Onyx said, wondering if Master himself had ever been on a quest. He seemed to know a lot about them for a person who'd never been on one.

'Ah yes, I've heard about that quest. The Lorian Warrior legend, and the Plumkiville book. Two very different things, but the quest has been the same for centuries! You, Onyx, a child of 17, must find the Sacred book! That is a very tough, but very rewarding task. You know what it would mean for your family!' he said, going a little off topic, but never mind that. Onyx thanked him, paid for the potions, and went on, to buy her weapons!
It was a very long walk down to the Weapon shop, but since Onyx ran, it didn't take that long. She bought a sharp knife, a helmet, sword, bow and arrow, and a little belt, that had tiny little knives in it, that she could use for smaller enemies!

The snow was beginning to fall faster and faster, and the streets were filling up with white layers of sparkles. The people started running to their homes as the rain came down, suddenly! Onyx had nowhere to go, so she chose to hide in the nearby woods. Little did she know, that there was a big secret in those woods. Well, she'll find out now!
Whatcha think?
