Chapter Thirteen
Parisa walked quietly through the forest, her mind flashing back to the village from earlier. It made no sense that a village would just disappear without affecting the other areas although it was the same with what happened to the Nordic settlement in Vinland thousands of years ago.
But why? And how? Why would a group of people suddenly leave? It's not like they have run scarce the source of food that they lived off and decided to go someplace.
And the fact that it wasn't just the physical bodies that were missing but the souls as well. It doesn't make any sense at all.
"Who could've done this..." she mused, as she walked through the forest, her feet barely making any noise.
Akram followed suit, cutting down any branches or bushes to make a clear path for her, that for some reason is entirely in her own world, not noticing anything at all.
"Maybe someone with a grudge?" he supplied with a small grunt as he lifted the

"Here, take this." Akram held out a brown faded cloak towards Parisa before placing his bag over his shoulder. "What is this for?" she asked as she looked at the cloak with curiousity, lifting the fabric gently as if it were made of glass. "It's for you," he told her. "Use that to cover yourself as not to attract unwarranted attention." he said, gesturing to the other's otherworldly looks. "The place where we are going is heavily supertitious when it comes to seeing something different." he explained. She raised an eyebrow at that, and with a teasing smile responded. "Am I that different?" He looked at her for a minute before shaking his head with a small chuckle. "Your looks...are not common," he told her. "Very few people have the same looks as you are, and when I say few, say about 0.01 percent of the entire world." She nodded, slinging the cloak over her shoulder. "And you say that us different are considered evil, is it not

"Stay back!" Aedre shouted as she brandished a knife towards the small childlike creature who was grinning oddly enough at her and imitating a small child.She knew enough that what was in front of her was no small child who just got lost in the forest, it brims of something far more different. It screams anger and jealousy but at what, she doesn't know.But what she cared for most was Tivona. Eversince the demise of her home, the younger had been taciturn to the point that she had shut herself off from the world. And since the younger was also knew to using the power she had inherited, her aura had been leaking through the barriers and had somehow attracted the creature to the smell of childish innocence.After taking a small bath and refreshing herself with the water from the river, she had decided to come back with a small catch to likely appease the younger and to hopefully get a response when upon stepping into the clearing, she had sensed somet

"Where are we going?" Parisa asked as she walked beside Akram, her eyes looking around her in wonder; at the people gathered in the square, calling out their wares and inviting customers to have a feel or a taste of their offered goods. "Home." was all Akram answered as he lightly pushed past people, his arm held out, making a sort of barrier against the them and the both of them. "Home..." she repeated, her voice taking on a depressed tone. She wondered how that felt, going back to the place where you belong, where you felt a ease, safe from the prying eyes of the world. But it has been years-millennia even that she had last set foot in her home. She wondered how her fellow brethren are doing, and have they cast her from their hearts for what she had done. Noticing the depressive tone of her voice, Akram turned to her, "Are you alright?" he asked, concerned. She looked up at him, a strained smile on her face, "It's nothing.

“What was the-thing out there?” Tivona shakily asked the Huntress as they walked through the forest, guided by a small orb of flame that the Huntress had conjured earlier.After the Huntress had released an arrow directed at the creature, Aedre took that as a sign to grab Tivona, against to the younger’s protests at the sudden movement and ran from the scene, without looking back, the Huntress following after them.Aedre and her exchanged a look, the other hesitant in telling the younger the truth while she was persistent as there was no use to hide the younger from the horrors of the world as she should get used to it earlier than later.The older-now the caretaker of the younger heaved out a sigh. “A puckwedgie.”“Puckwedgie?”

"I just don't get it," a short brown haired young man with grey eyes asked as he straightened up from his post by the doorway to the atrium of the chamber."Get what?" Null asked as he raised a hand to ran through his silver hair. His eyes searching for something from the thousands of glass bottles enconsced in small alcoves around the room."Why are you so intent on destroying everything?""Not really everything," he replied as he took a random bottle, checked its contents and huffed at the absurdity that was written on it before shoving the brown parchment back into the bottle, not caring a bit if he tore the aged document. "I do want to preserve one thing.""What is it?""None of your business." he replied as he looked around the room, his eyes searching for one particular item that had piqued his interest earlier. Something about old buildings?Why the need to keep some old buildings just for educational purposes while it could pos

She took in a deep breath, her nostrils filled with the smell of the ocean, she closed her eyes and let herself be dragged into the world of blissfulness, her problems being washed away by the currents, her silvery hair flying around her, her body relaxing the wind's embraced."So, you've come." a voice spoke and she slowly opened her eyes."Ah, so it seems that even in dreams you can't stop yourself from barging into other's personal lives." she spoke, her voice calm."It is something that brings me quite the pleasure that none can understand."She turned her head to look over her shoulder at the stranger, her eyes slightly widening as she saw silvery hair with grey eyes."...Wha-what are you doing here?" she asked, her voice shaking while silently cursing herself at the absurdity of having someone hear the fear in her voice.The man calmly smiled, a dangerous look in his eyes as he strode towards her, hands in his p

A frail old man on a wicker chair at the far end of the room, hunched over a desk, his quill moving in a frantic pace as if what he was writing is in dire need to be composed and hidden away.He barely looked up as small timid footsteps approached the desk, accompanied with a trembling shadow cast over the desk, sobs threatening to escape from the visitor."What did I tell you about playing when you haven't finished your studies?" he asked, more like a reminder as he continued writing, eyes fixated on the parchment in front of him."When will I have the chance to enjoy life like those other kids?" a small petulant voice asked, and he slowly raised his head to look at the child he had raised for so many years. "All I've ever done since I could read was pore over dusty scrolls, and recite some useless spells that would never even matter.""And how did you say that what you've read is useless?" he asked, as he st

A small lithe figure floated through throngs of people, her wings slightly extended on her sides, her short black curly hair flew around her face, her blue eyes focused on each and every figure in the room. She landed in front of a tall, graceful woman with long flowing hair, the other sat on a velvet chair, playing a soft tune on the huge harp perched on a small stool. "I've found it, Daena" she breathed as she softly approached the other, her feet barely touching the ground. The other girl slowly opened her eyes-blue-violet-framed with long lashes, turned to face the younger, her face barely changing in expression at all. "Did anyone know?" Daena whispered as she stood up, her white long robes falling gracefully down onto the ground. "No, I made sure that no one is around," the former whispered, her blue eyes bright. "I just still don't get why Parisa was banished. Others have done so much worse." Daena looked
