Eldon was glad that he was feeling better than anytime he could ever recall since forever.
There was strength in his limbs and he could even experience that continued revival of his spirits with every breath that he took.
He did not know if it was because of his children or not but he concluded that they were most probably one of the reasons for his rejuvenation.
"How long has it been since i've last seen the sun and the sky?" Eldon thought as he gazed upon the bright horizon above. It was beautiful. Simply breathtaking! He continued within.
"We have someone we need to take with us, Uwyn. You'll see once we get there." Maru sm
"I'm Maru and she is my sister, Uwyn. We're happy to see you today, Daisy." said Maru.His heart went out for the child. Her shabby thin dress barely protected her from the elements and even her face seemed gaunt with not enough nutrition into her small body."How about your grandpa? What's his name?" Daisy asked once more and pointed on the distant old man who was accompanied by Fiona and Ash.She was curious about the cute flying creatures and had wanted to approach them for a time and maybe touch them but she was afraid that she might offend them.Her aunt Lily had always reminded her to be wary of her actions towards peopl
It was ineffective but it broke the heart of her father. In the end, Eldon released his daughter and put her down."Aunt Lily!""Brother!" Daisy ran towards her family the moment her feet touched the ground."So shall we?" Maru asked again with a smile."Yes." was all Lily answered because she had no choice but to do it. Her body and voice was controlled by an unseen influence.She had wanted to shout and crawl out of whatever this place was but she concluded that she could not. Lily was like a soul trapped within her own body. Powerless to stop what was
"You two are both strong now and with those magical beasts around, I doubt that anyone would dare bother if you won't let them. But Daisy and Shane are different." Eldon continued."We don't want you in our lives!" Shane shouted. It showed how much he resisted the idea. And Eldon could only shake his head in understanding.He even detested himself for every folly he had done in his life. Elise who had been the mother of this pair was also a great woman. As an attendant of a heroine, she had lived a good life.But when her master had taken notice of their relationship, everything shattered in but an instant.Elise and him were
Each pet flew towards their designated masters and they got acquainted pretty soon after that."What about aunt Lily, brother?" Daisy asked.Her aunt was silent throughout the entire ordeal and would only whisper calming words during their crying outbursts earlier.She loved her aunt even more for that. Aunt Lily was their mother, father, and guardian, all in one person. And Daisy would also want to give her aunt a pet as a present.Although it did not come from her but still, she would have loved that she too, was not excluded from the rest of them."I
Sometimes he would take her to hunt in the forests nearby and take low level magical beasts with them as tokens of their adventure and other times they would only talk about anything under the sun.Olivia was like a teenager all over again. But she was loving their time together and she couldn't wait for what was to come for them."Why did you suddenly open up about your father, Maru. Did you and Uwyn find him?" Olivia asked her son.She looked at her son to gauge Maru’s reaction but all she gathered was the same calm expression on her son's face."Nothing, mom. I'm just curious because you and Sir Evan seem to get along
"No matter what you did in the past, Ezperanza. I doubt that you deserve to be caged in that desolate cage for all of eternity. No one deserves that!At least not a woman who is as kind and as beautiful as you are." Maru uttered sincerely and Ezperanza couldn't help but be moved by the genuine words."Who is she, Maru?" a melodic voice entered into the fray.She was dressed in nature's colors and guise but that did not take away the natural beauty that was hers."She is a friend of mine, Lyra. Her name is Ezperanza." Maru introduced the pair of strangers.
Maru observed that the wet garments were caked seductively on her body and Maru saw the erect crests that responded aggressively to the low temperature of the elements."The water is cold, Maru." Mistress Ais whispered and hugged him from the front. Two pairs of twin mountains had now assailed his senses from the back and same before him.Maru and Mistress Ais were leveled equally because he had chosen to stand alongside his friend in identical height.And although he took the guise of a middle aged guy but his stature was comparable to a giant of a man.A full 7 feet of proud physique that corresponded to Mistress Ais' own wi
"SWASH!" two bodies joined as one into the deeper parts of the swimming pool."Wait for me, Maru!" Lyra called and followed in haste towards the object of her attention. Seeing this, Ezperanza could only shake her head but there was a bright smile upon her face."It's good to be alive." she thought.Though there was still guilt hidden behind the joys that she was feeling but within a second, Ezperanza chose to forget everything else and just enjoy the blessings of this great memorable day.She dived into the waters once more as she celebrated her new life in this unknown world of fresh wonders. But at least this time, she was
