Still Safe in Angel’s Hands?

2022-01-14 16:51:46Some girls, about thirteen years old, gathered in a bedroom by one bed, although time to sleep was announced by Miss Blackwood’s yells and screams more than fifteen minutes ago.
The children gathered around Elizabeth's bed. The bed where she would sleep for the first time without Dorothy, her best friend.
The blonde girl, unable to sleep, kept herself busy with a thing she used to do most of the time when she felt restless.
She organized some stuff in that bed. There was a narrow, pinched pot on the bed, its upper part being covered with a canvas that had some small figures cut into it. The bottom of that old and parched pot was completely missing, and on one side it had a bigger crack. At the bottom the pot had a piece of a blurred and broken mirror, with the mirror facing the upper part. There were some more pieces of mirror on the windowsill and on a small almost damaged nightstand. The one on the cold sill faced the dusty window, and the one on the nig

E.C. EDWARDS - The Mighty Antimagic Spell The Mysterious Man
It's been more than two weeks since Dorothy Miller left the orphanage, but it seemed to Elizabeth that a human lifespan passed since then. She still did not get used to the thought that she would never see again the one who was always with her. That’s why, she seemed to see her every day sitting at the table where they usually ate, waiting for her in their room, or going down the stairs ... Not once did she run after her, grabbed her by hand, took her in her arms and held her tight and ... and only then did she see that it wasn't Dorothy Miller, but another girl. Every time it was like this ... Could it be anything harder than losing the last person who really cared about you? The only family you ever had ... when you were meant to not have no family ... … “Hello,” an elegantly dressed gentleman, wearing a long black coat to his knees over an expensive suit, with lacquered leather shoes, as only a lord could wear greeted respectfully.

“That's right, Mr. Green. You are perfectly right, sir ...” Mr. Green put his hand in a pocket of the overcoat and held out a plentiful purse for Harp. “I know I can’t reward the work you carried out in twenty years with these ...little devils. Consider it a small payment from Miss Elizabeth Edwards. From the work she will do, dear Mr. Harp. I'll get my money back from her work. Mr. Harp was the happiest man on Earth at that time. “I apologize, Mr. Green for having the courage to believe that the little miss’s life will not be as it should be with you. If I think better, you are more than adequate to correct and guide her in life. It is clear that you know very well that work ennobles man. “The harder it is, the more it ennobles us,” Mr. Green added sniggering. “That’s right, but you must also consider that these children must be educated as well through ...” Yet, Mr. Harp failed to finish the sentence.

“Catherine Edwards?!” Miss Blackwood ran down the corridors of the orphanage, with the reminder to limp from time to time when she met a small group of frightened children in her way. “Elizabeth, where are you, little bitch?!” As usual, the old lady fiercely looked for her... to make poor girl’s life even more miserable. The woman kept screaming. “Catherine Edwards ?!” She entered each tiny room, each dormitory stuffed with furniture and old closets. Some of those closets had no doors because they were eaten by bugs. She hit them with her crutch. The old lady saw a lot of children washing the floor blackened in time, not because of the dirt, but because the children used to polish it daily. That floor with traps here and there with rotten or broken planks. “Kid, where's Elizabeth Edwards?” The boy, about seven, carried a bucket full of water almost heavier than he was. He stopped near the old hag. “I don't

It was that kind of noon when even though the sun was in the sky for some time, in the shade of the trees it was quite cool. Even so, the scenery was so pleasant that you could sit carried away in those waves of greenery, listening to the birds’ spring songs.Next to a hidden forest path, where someone right in the head would not stop, there was a carriage. The horses were tired and hungry. They ate grass with gusto, like a wolf devouring its prey. It was clear they had come a long and difficult way.A man and two children got off the carriage. The man, Mr. Benjamin Green, paid the coachman for the trip and thanked him. Then he beckoned to the two children to follow him.Elizabeth’s heart was pounding with fear because she didn't know what was to happen next. Only when she saw the little boy Johnny smiling and winking at her, she recovered her courage and calmed down.How come this little boy who was hit so badly and probably that happened eve

Yet, she had no time to wonder more, for in a moment Johnny began to disintegrate slowly, slowly, smiling as if his gradual disappearance was something as normal as opening a door, until he completely vanished. His clothes vanished too. That mysterious tree seemed to have absorbed him. So no one could blame on Elizabeth that she was even more terrified now.There was some very fine, tickling dust rising slightly from the girl’s left hand. The girl was terrified ... She had her reasons. How would anyone feel if his hand becomes dust instantly, after which the same thing happens to his body?But when she felt Knudlac's palm clutching her hand gently and when she saw his soothing gaze, kinder than a father’s for his daughter, Elizabeth became much quieter."Don't be scared," the professor explained. We will go together in a much friendlier place, a place where you will be pleased to be. I promise."And after he saw that the girl also answered wit

Miss Harmony cleared her throat and began to say:“Of course. I'll start with ... How to explain to you, my dear? Until today you could only notice what you wanted to see. You spent your life in a real world, as those people who want to ... ignore magic. We call them ‘sceptic’. And this world is different from theirs.”“I was sceptic too?”Miss Harmony smiled so warmly that anyone would say her picture should be added to the word kindness in the dictionary.“Have you noticed anything strange with you so far?”“I saw I could make bright ponies ... out of nothing and other stuff like that.” “Then you aren’t sceptic. You couldn’t be sceptic ... Your parents were some of the best and most powerful wizards that mankind has ever had. Like Professor Eadan Knudlac. As for you, some people think you’ll ... the most powerful witch of your generation.”

“I drink water. To become the wisest wizard,” the boy replied as if it were the most obvious answer.Because Elizabeth was puzzled, Miss Harmony tried to explain to her:“Some rumours say that if you are a pure soul and you speak the truth in a difficult situation, this fountain will fulfil a wish when you sip in its water. And that you could become the wisest. At least that is what the old wizards ... and their legends say. But I say they are just myths, because I do not know someone who had a wish fulfilled by this well. It just managed to help the older ones trick their kids.The professor got close to Johnny who swallowed the water as cracked earth swallows the first drops of rain.“Johnny, stop! You have drunk water from the well and you did not become the wisest, as you can see ...”Miss Harmony looked at the little girl smiling and said:“I think he has drunk at least ten times water in this well.&r

“Unfortunately, we don't have time now, dear. Tomorrow after classes Johnny can accompany you wherever you want to go. And you can spend as much time as you want in this garden. If Johnny agrees to accompany you.“Of course, Miss Harmony.”The woman continued to present the surroundings, and the two children followed her.“Here is the Sanctuary of Mystical and Non-Mystical Creatures. You can meet anytime you want animals from the real world. You can search and see any life form that lives on Earth, underground or in the water.”"Or a beast-monster," Johnny smiled trying to imitate a beast in order to scare Elizabeth.But the girl was not scared at all by the so charming Johnny.“Johnny, please be nice,” the professor heckled him.Then turning to the girl:“Yes, it is an area with beasts. You can find out everything you want about them. But I advise you not to visit it. Becau

Silence was deeper than it is in a cemetery after the fight with the evil wizards.Vlad's army of wizards suffered heavy losses. But also a win, which may worth the effort and all sacrifices, because now they had a parent of magic on their side ... that elf Lord, a force that the powerful army of black magic hasn’t had until now.Elizabeth watched sadly and tearfully Miss Harmony's fiancé crying, holding her breathless body in his arms.“I'm so sorry ...,” said the girl. At any moment, she expected a miracle to wake up from that nightmare. You know the feeling when you breathe in relief after a bad dream when you’re awake, sweating and terrified.Still, nothing happened because the girl wasn’t in a dream. Everything was as real as possible ... including the words spoken by Miss Harmony's fiancé:“YOU HAVE A REASON TO FEEL SORRY! YOU KILLED HER! You didn’t leave to her any chance to defen

As he saw he could do nothing, he disappeared, to look for help, perhaps.“As I can see we’ll be more in a short time. And as I set out to stay fewer, I don't delay the introduction ... I introduce to you the new Prince of Dark Magic, Lord Tbylisium, whom you had the honour to know for sure.”As soon as the elf Lord appeared, he cast a curse on one of the wizards who were with Knudlac.“Pel’Nai Vejyje!”And that wizard disappeared turning into ash. His guardian, a wolf, also disappeared, to Knudlac and his group’s disappointment, but also of Vlad vampire’s.“What a pity ... I even felt hot blood boiling in him, calling me to drink it.”“I didn't have such a great idea for an entry like this! Magnificent!” exclaimed Vlad laughing. “Worthy of a true Prince of the Night ...!”Only he and the other evil wizards smiled. Everyone in Knudlac's group was sad…for they

Even she believed that, but not her Guardian. The little hawk descended from where he was in the air with speed and clung to the bloody creature’s mouth. He began to snatch with his beak pieces of fur and flesh from the mouth of the Lycanthrope.She screamed again, but not as before. This time it was a cry of pain. He tried to catch the hawk with his claws, but failed, sign that something was going on. Smoke began to come out from the creature's mouth, his limbs failed to obey him and suddenly something seemed to poison his whole body. Howls and screams of a wolf about to die were now heard from the Lycanthrope.Elizabeth saw that the wolf-creature was started shrinking.The hawk stopped attacking and landed on his master's shoulder watching calmly the huge Lycanthrop shrinking more and more until he became an old, skinny wolf.Scared and confused, physically destroyed and suffering from the curse put on him, the old wolf collapsed exhausted to the

A terrible scream suddenly woke Elizabeth from her deep sleep. The girl jumped to her feet as if she were a soldier awakened by the sergeant for instruction, a few hours before the alarm.“What was that?” asked the girl, scared."I don't know," said Fahria, slightly frightened too. I don’t know all the creatures that live on these lands. I also heard some more terrible screams tonight, which scared me too.”"I didn't hear anything ... I was probably too tired," Miss Edwards said, wiping her eyes.“We have a keen sense of hearing ... and sight too. We can hear and see things even two, three days apart.”Jiao Long slowly approached the girls. He gave the clear impression that he looked for something in particular. It was obvious he was scared too and he thought it would be better to have companions on their way to their final destination.“I think it would be better for us to continue our journey

“Mr. Knudlac, do you think it’s okay for me to take part in this event? I think it was more appropriate if Alexander ... I drove him mad and I think I ruined our friendship.”“My dear, if anyone ever ceases to be your friend, it means you’ve never been a friend of his. In life you’ll meet many people ... but only a few are true friends.”The girl thought a little of Mr. Knudlac's wise words, then she continued:“But, my participation ...”“You were chosen for your magic power that’s amazing even for the oldest wizards. They saw hope in you. So everything is as it should be. You’ll be a great wizard.”“Is it true that only the most powerful wizards participated in this contest?”“No, but it's true that everyone who won this contest became very powerful wizards.”“For example?”“For example Vladimir

Are you sure?”“That's what I heard ...”Several children were gathered in the school yard talking about the latest events. Elizabeth was in the spotlight, alongside with Johnny and Alexander, who was accompanied by more friends of his.“I don’t understand why? Why did he choose you? An ignorant girl ... I had to be the one who ... My name had to stay forever in ... The total glory had to be mine!”“Do you think I want to participate in the last event? I don't think I'm ... able to do that.”“Then why did you enter this contest? WHY?!”Elizabeth said nothing more. She was scared.“To mess up with my busi

The boy began to inspect the door. Elizabeth did the same.It seemed that door was locked. It could only be opened by solving a riddle.What can burn like the most terrible fires,To put out any flame or glare, such as water,But also to float like a flake,Which makes it very pleasant to the touch ...“Riddle again. I don't like riddles,” Alexander sighed.“I do,” smiled the girl. “Let's see. What could burn like fire? But also can put out the fire. A liquid ...”“Yes, I know this has to be, but what exactly?”“In chemistry we talked about substances ...”“Yes. Theoretically, Nitrogen, Hydrogen or Oxygen can be liquid, if they’re cooled to very low temperatures, but ...”“It might be water,” the girl tried to interrupt Alexander.“Nitrogen burns under certain conditions the skin and cools everything, so it can be use
E.C. EDWARDS - The Mighty Antimagic Spell In the Depths of the Purple Oasis
The first train ride was a more than incredible experience for Elizabeth. Along with Professor Knudlac, Johnny and Alexander with whom she spent the journey in that train compartment, she learned many things and stories.Out of the window, they could see the sand caves of touareg wizards. Those magic caves crossed by the train, which they left behind, were dwellings of those touaregs that changed size and shape according to their inhabitants’ will.The sand moulded with those nomads’ wands formed mansions, castles or magnificent palaces, as never seen before.And their interior ... could take any shape. Pyramidal, spherical or even in the form of an icosahedron - a geometric body that has no more or less than twenty corners.At that window, when they came to the surface, they could see the magic river and the imposing magic waterfall, both of them bearing the same name, Bighaar, which was different from any other waterfall because the water fl

Tzurtzurk looked at the children who didn’t understand him at all.“You should be told. Do you know why the corridor is called like that? Not because no one finds it anymore, but because whoever enters it’s really lost. That’s why it’s called the lost aisle, of the lost one ... for anyone who dares to enter it ...”The kids didn't say anything. Because what they experienced made them realize what dangers they faced and they could experience something even worse than that.They looked down, ashamed.Tzurtzurk waved his wand in his hand and they all disappeared from the crypt, reaching the place where ... they were likely to hear their punishment.…“You haven't been told since you came here that there are some places where you don't have to go?” the stone elf responsible for the surveillance of the crypt walked very furiously around the three children, in Mr. Knudlac's great room.
