"My Lord, what is it that's bothering you? Why did you leave the room thus? " The wolf queen asked her husband as he rushed back to his chamber and sat restless on his place.

The king heaved deep signs as he looked hither thither.

"My Lord... " the queen began but was cut short.

" Is that even possible? That is the only logical explanation I can come to. Ah! My luck. My luck. I can't believe I am even thinking it could be so. But it is. Reality is indeed stranger than fiction. It is indeed. " The king heaved another deep sign.

Just then Xie, Roe and Lin rushed to the entrance to the kings chamber and yelled for permission to come in.

"Come in children, come in. " He said as he sat a little more comfortably.

" Nana said the pendant is still with a wolf. Somebody from the Royal family, " Lin got straight to the point.

" She's come back to her senses. She alright? " The queen inquired.

" Yes mother. " Roe replied.

" With a wolf you say. Hhhmmm. I think I know where it might be. " The kin

Mia ran on all fours. She ran and ran till she reached an opening. The beast was almost recovering from its fall. It walked towards Mia with baby steps, rubbing its eyes along the way." Mia. Mia don't go. Mia. I am your uncle Jin. Mia" It called out to her in a voice full of sorrow.Mia looked at it and then back at the opening. She peered down the opening but couldn't see anything properly. It was too dark down the line." Mia come back here. I will keep you safe. " The beast called out and came towards her faster.Mia looked at it for one last time before taking the plunge ahead. At the back of her mind was running the argument that it was better to die someplace else than die , torn to pieces, loosing all dignity."

    There was a strange ringing sensation inside Mia's ears. The space around her caved in as if spiralling around her neck. Her head spun like a falling star from the heavens. Things were starting to get 'Crystal' clear infront of her eyes. The moment the other mermaid turned around as she was being dragged out of the assembly along with the girl right infront of Mia, she could not dismiss the striking resemblance with her mother. Things started falling into their places. She could understand why she was able to see Anajana. She understood why the mer-boy only communicated with her. She understood why she had no difficulty breathing even when she was under water without any spell. She could also understand the subtle implications her mother use to make."What's on your mind girl? Huh? Wouldn't you tell? You are all grown up huh? A teenager with temperaments. Aahh! If only we were in the ocean I would instantly know what's going on in there.

    "Indeed he had it. " The wolf king finally answered Nana, " When the mer-witch tied me with her chain and thrust me inside a celler like space in that structure where brother Jin was, she gave me only twenty breaths worth of time."Nana slowly came walking inside listening to the story deeply." I immediately, selfishly asked him straight away about the Spirit Conjurer the moment he came infront of me. I neither asked him how he was doing nor did I enquire him about how pale he looked. He himself must have been too shocked to see me there, but he only smiled at my question. " The wolf king continued, " He smiled and said ' Oh! So that is why you came here? ' But instead of answering I yet again pushed him with my demand, letting him know how little time i had. My brother wasted no more time in letting me know where he had it hidden in the caves beyond the fountains. Our time was wrapped up no sooner after this. As the mer-witch pulled me witht je chain, Jin hurriedly pressed that pend

    Lin darted off towards the Southern Oceans, taking the messanger along with him." There. " Lin placed him on the ground as dust blew with the intensity, " Where did they say they were keeping my Mia? "The man pointed at the ocean bed with trembling hands." There? How did you get there? " Lin asked , wondering how a mortal could stay underwater for such a long time." There's a shrub behind the palace of the mortal king. It one eats adequate doze of it, one can breath under water for quite a long time" the man answered." Really? There is? Take me there immediately. " Lin picked the man up and off they went.Lin made a soft landing behind the palace ." Here? " He asked the man. The man nodded his head and pointes towards a purple orchid like flower."

    Mia had a lot going in her mind.Escaping the harrowing experience at the tower was ignominious enough. To top it up she had the revelation about her mother. It would have been alright if it stopped at that but she had to deal with her new found aunts. While the two were busy engaging with Mia in hope that Mia might have been sent by the new queen to terminate their exile, Mia was lurching from the truth about her birth. She had heard how passionately her father spoke about her mother. It was sure that there was love. But never had Mia fathomed the depth of her mother's sacrifice, may her soul in peace rest. Every word her mother had spoken, every advise she used to give, made more and more sense to her now that they were so out of reach. Mia had been desperate trying to find a way to help Anjana and the mer-boy, ever since she had known about their fate.

    As the waves circulated around them, Mia could feel Lin's hand slide behind her as he cried inconsolably. Mia had always seen Lin face calamities head on. He was her rock. Even when the initial phases of the curse was evoked, Lin was the one giving Mia some hope. He had seemed like he had the key to every door. But now that the strong wall he had been hiding behind crumbled, Mia could see how vulnerable he was. He had put up a very believe able act of resilience. But it seemed he had been hurting as well. It was far different than what Mia had done to push him away. But how could she. How could she bare. She knew she did it to protect him and their child. She knew she did it to hide what she had to do for them.

It looked surreal. They marvelled as they swam. The guards stationed at the intervals opened each pass at a time as they kept proceeding without any hindrance. There were glow fishes patrolling the perimeter as they gave out light. Mia pulled Lin further as he kept lagging behind, admiring his new found." Come on. What do you keep staring at? " Mia asked as she noticed Lin stare at one of the guards.She was as beautiful a mer-witch could get. All of them were. What made them even more attractive were their voluptuous busts.

    Akata's brows furrowed as the God in front of him pulled out what looked like a luminescent moon from his pocket.
