The one who returned

It had been weeks since I had returned. When I woke up I was alone on the hill, my brother who I remember was not far away, not even close to being seen, I also possessed a wound on my chest, but that was closed.

"Don't get distracted now Moira, keep running"

Narcissus is guiding me somewhere he claims to know, I am not a saint, much less have the power to see the future, the day I returned I found the dead body of a beast man.

In his pocket was information about the invasion, all I did was use that information to fool the king and get food and shelter, but soon he will ask me to use it again and I will have no more excuses, so I must leave.

"Turn here"

As I turn I see a gate, next to it is a human sized wooden door, there are no guards in this part of the castle, which is strange, but I will not question Narcissus, not now at least.

When I get close enough I hear cries of pain, it is Queen Grace, the sound comes from that wooden door.

"We have to help her!"

"It's no use, the fall of the Eden kingdom is more important"

That... Damn, reluctantly I approach the gate and the first thing I see are sparks bouncing off the metal.

"That's it, use what I taught you."

Putting my hands together I bring the angel out again, many find her beautiful, but this was the figure that killed me, I can't see any beauty, only disgust and revulsion.

"Open"

At my command the angel placed his hands on the gate and began to push, with the strength of this angel I can destroy mountains, but now the gate doesn't even move.

"No this idiot, the light bid"

When I returned I noticed something strange in me, I felt a power, a force I never felt before, by focusing on it I could tell with total certainty, it is the same power used to kill me, light, I could feel the light.

"Ok"

With a wave of his hand, a spear of light appears in each angel's hand and with force and speed he stabs the gate, the sound produced by this confrontation is so great that I go deaf for a few seconds.

The vibration produced from the impact causes the whole castle to shake, dust falls from the ceiling and stains my clothes, it is now a dead end, I look at the gate and see that the cut made a small opening, that I could get through.

As soon as I passed through the gate I felt heavy, a formless force held me in place, the corridor is long and I cannot see its end.

"Moira, I believe we will now go our separate ways"

"What? If you leave me here I will die!"

The fairy ignored my words and flew away, watching her go I remember the day I met her, it was the same day I met him, the beast man.

He had a cat's head, his chest had a hole and blood dripped like a house with a leak on a rainy day, when he saw me he was surprised and grabbed his dagger, but soon put it down, he didn't have much strength left.

I don't know why, but when I saw this man I understood many things, my brother always thought I was a cute child who doesn't know the horror of the world, but I always heard from the merchants rumors about a war.

We live near the Marian wall, but outside its protections, so it is common for beings of other races to appear, beastmen like this one are always hunted because of their appearance, but this one looks different.

The man lying against the tree is wearing a completely black outfit, a pair of leather boots and a cloth covering part of his face.

"Kore, motte tte"

His last words were these, in his hand is a paper that he tried to hand me before his death, I approached cautiously, on tiptoe and took the paper quickly, the body fell right away.

Looking at the paper I found out about an attack by the elves, and it also tells about a conflict between the angels and a red dragon, apparently they were fighting for the domain of some place that the spy could not find out.

I can neither read nor write, much less was there anything written on the paper, but when I look at it this information goes straight to my head, soon after the paper caught fire and fell apart, its only trace was a puff of smoke.

The man cat dying was something expected, but what came out of his pocket surprised me, a ball of light, also known as a fairy, she called herself the fairy of new beginnings and that if I followed her teachings I would be able to do something magnificent.

A magnificent death, right Narcissus? Damn, one month, we were together for one month and he discarded me in just one second, the angel over my head seems to have understood my pain, as he embraced me with his wings.

Immediately the force that held me disappeared, I completely forgot, the power of these feathers, it can erase spells imposed on living beings, this is how I have helped to bring those invaders from another world.

My moment of happiness was over as I could hear footsteps outside, run, I need to run for now, go deeper into this corridor and find the sacred Tree of Eden.

No end, was the impression I got, but I can hear a bird singing, for some time now and this motivates me to want to keep running, I don't know how much time passed, but I kept running until I reached a square and completely white room.

In the center of the room resides a strange thing, it is thin, but also thick, it looks short, but it is the tallest thing I have ever seen, it is green, but also brown, it is shaped like a tree, but I can also see a face.

In total silence I search for Narcissus, but I have no success in this search, the room is small, so it should be an easy thing to find him, but before I finish my search a voice sounds in my head, three times and at the same time.

"One of the 7 has finally arrived"

"Say what you wish"

"Only one request will be fulfilled"
