tmi/tid meme ➝ two shadowhunter families: Herondales

It’s not a scar. It’s a birthmark, of sorts, and a Herondale family secret. The story Stephen told me was that years ago, a Herondale ancestor encountered an angel. The angel touched him on the shoulder, and the touch left a mark like a star. It is the mark of one who has been in contact with an angel. The mark was passed on through his blood: all his descendants have it as well.
