"Oh, we're here." (Shara)
Oh man, does that mean I won't be able to listen to the rest of the story unless I survive.
*tap* *tap* *tap*
"Welcome, Shara. I see that you did your job."
"Edna, I see you are still cold." (Shara)
"As per usual, follow me." (Edna)
As soon as we entered the building, it was eery. I'm not too fond of this feeling.
"Her test will be conducted here with ten others." (Edna)
With the room now opened up, i see parents holding their children in silence. Although at this moment, they all seem calm to calm in fact.
*Creak*
"Seeing as you are all here, I shall explain what you will be doing."
Who is that man?
"For the safety of you and the children who do the test, I ask that you do not intervene with the ritual no matter the circumstances."
That doesn't sound good at all.
"The child going first will be Adam Markel."
That child I might see a child die before my eyes. I don't want to do this—the parents, with a resigned look, handed over their child to a man in all white. Laying down the child on a symbol that looked like something I recognize and can't remember. Darkness surrounded the child while the parents had to hold themselves back from grabbing their child. With that, the man who was talking started to chant something under his breath.
"et priuatam huic puero occurrit nos producat quoniam est munera et priuatam. Haec dona puer cum enim donum est donum non moritur. Donum fac ab omnibus suis. Dona hoc ipsum Vivamus Zebe."
What the Fuck? As soon as the chant ended, Adam started to glow. The man doing the chant knelt and spoke once more.
"With the blood of the unknown shall he be worthy."
Tilting his hand, he tapped Adam's head, causing a mark to appear and disappear. After that, the kid started to float. Once he was a foot off the ground, he flowed back down. Picking up the child, the man handed Adam back to his parents, who started to cry.
"Your child has survived the ceremony. Once your child turns 3, you will be required to come back to find out what his ability is for that is the time of the manifestation."
Why are you still crying? Never mind.
Over the next several minutes, the man called out everyone else's names. Not one of them died.
