We have no choice but to keep running. My stamina is increasingly failing me. My breaths are short and sharp. My lungs are starting to burn so much that it hurts like knives are being stabbed into my chest. My legs are shaking, barely obeying me. They beg me to let them collapse, but my mind refuses. One more step. Just one more. Then another. Please continue.

My heartbeat is screaming inside my head and deep in my throat. A branch tears my arm, but I barely notice the pain.

The landscape before me is blurry. Shapes swirl in the corners of my eyes, shifting like ghosts, like the evil spirits that are chasing us. Their creeping follows us, sending shivers down my spine.

Only at the last moment do the blurred shapes take on their standard form. An invisible shape now approaches me, and as its image clears, I recognize it as a tree. I don't have time to avoid it. My shoulder scrapes against the rough bark. My heartbeat is now pounding in my ears, deafening.

I grit my teeth. I won't give

  • Finding The Heart of Magic   Chapter 35

    My throat burns with each swallow.Each step only sharpens my thirst, making it hard to focus on anything else. My thirst is the only thing I can feel.Then-A voice breaks through."Look," Ballyan's voice carries the first hint of hope. "Light, right ahead. We're almost out."I look where he shows us, and he's right.He turns to me. "So? What's next?" he asks. His voice is firm, unwavering—no hesitation, no doubt."We are meant to encounter a rocky area with a cliff below. There will be a sea featuring a small bay with a beach and a cave. "Although the cave will be visible, we will need to swim to enter it," I reply calmly.The forest ends, and we keep walking. The light is bright, and we squint our eyes until we adjust to it.Every now and then, I discreetly run my tongue over my lips. I admit this does not quench my thirst, but I can't stop doing it. Somehow, it provides relief.The first thing we notice is the smell of the sea. A crisp, intense taste in the air, like a wind soaked

    I feel beads of sweat run down my spine and collect in the dimple at the base of my waist."Did you feel that?" I ask the knights wanting to know their thoughts on what had just happened. Maybe there is some logical explanation. Perhaps it's a unique phenomenon in this magical forest that I don't know about.I wish to be."Yes," Brian answers."What is it?" I ask again."It was just o breath of air."I narrowed my eyes and pursed my lips. "I'm not stupid, Brian. It wasn't just a breeze like all the others. Not a leaf was moved. How do you explain that?'The knight stops short and scratches the back of his neck."You notice that, don't you?" asks me."Of course I noticed. What is it? Why did it happen?"The other knights seem to have heard our conversation because they are approaching us."The truth is, we don't know what it might be. Various legends circulate in people's mouths, but it is difficult for me to believe all I hear." Ballyan informs me, and then I remember."Aida before I

    I remain frozen in my place while my heart starts hammering. I must inform the men immediately. Brian is closer to me, and I decide to tell him.I lean slightly towards him. "Brian," I whisper, wanting to get his attention first.He turns and looks at me. "What's up, princess. Why are you whispering?" he tells me with carelessness, and I want to bring him the plate I was holding on his head. But he is right. He doesn't know."Wild animals are here watching us. They may have surrounded us. Tell to Robert who is sitting near you. Everyone needs to be informed," I tell him, and he nods in agreement.From my seat, I watch the process as the information was transferred from one to another and how their behavior changed from the moment they learned.They left their plate on the ground and put his hand on the handle of the sword, ready for defense.When the information reaches Ballyan, he leaves his plate on the ground, and he carefully searches th

    EdithWe reach the edge of the forest very quickly. Knight Ballyan approaches me and tells me:"It's time to let go of the horses, my princess.""Okay," I answer, and Ballyan gives the order to the other knights.We dismounted from the horses, and the soldiers who had followed us took the horses' reins and, with a simple "Good Luck," took the road back to the castle.We watch them walk away for a while, but when the dust raised by the horse's clattering of feet and drowns us causing us a cough, we decide to move on.We begin to enter the forest, and the drop in temperature is quickly felt. The vegetation is dense. Gigantic trees with massive, thick trunks and low and tall shrubs cover almost all the ground. Somewhere we find some flowers with huge blossoms. This is the first time I see such flowers. They have lovely bright colors and a delectable scent.I gape for a moment at this incredible beauty of theirs when, at some point, a large insect comes and sits on the bloom to feed itself
