Terra Australis: Ethereal Secret Chapter 8: A New Life
Everyone only had a few hours of sleep before the sun started to rise again. Isuzu slowly got up on her bed as she woke up around her usual time. She looked at the wall clock on the side to look at the time. "6 o'clock," Isuzu whispered as she yawned while stretching her arms. She noticed something beside her, a large bag and a suitcase with a name-tag. She stepped out of her bed and approached the luggage. The name tag said, "To Ms Isuzu Harukawa." This regained her senses immediately. She opened the bag to see a new fresh set of clothes, some for everyday life and others for parties or balls. "Wait, these are all mine?" she asked herself and then looked back at the clock. "Oh no, Iowa!" she exclaimed. She rushed over to the window, and as she put aside the curtains, she shouted. "Iowa, wake up!" the bright light of the sun fell upon Iowa's closed eyes, instantly bolting her out of her bed."W-what?!" Yelled Iowa, half-asleep. "The general might be calling us anytime soon, we

Isuzu bowed down like it was her last in front of the South British general. Desperately wanting for at least, just once, be able to say goodbye to what is left of her family.Iowa and Celeste waited anxiously for the general's response.Celeste held her cup of tea closer to her chest as the air started to feel heavy. Iowa's heartbeat slowly started to pick up the pace. At the same time, Isuzu clenched her fist as she began to feel her mind throbbing just like her unruly heart.Her lips quivered as she started to feel the ice-cold sweat trickle down her face.The general, Matilda, watched as Isuzu pleaded and gently called her on her first name,"Isuzu, look at me." softly said the general.Isuzu slowly raised her head as she saw the South British-Australian face of the general, her blue eyes and crimson red lips."You're not a prisoner here Isuzu, but I suggest we be cautious with what we do, OK?""What do you mean?" asked Isuzu."Well," the general then leaned back on her chair, lett

An hour has passed in South Britain. The general was writing in the pages of a book as the silence of the room engulfed her.She could only hear the sounds of the tip of her fountain pen rubbing against the manila paper, the insects outside the room, and the ticking of her grandfather's clock.As she wrote continuously, she started to feel the ticking of the clock become louder as she kept on writing.She then started to recall vast memories, but then as it got more severe, she suddenly raised her head to the sound of someone opening the door.Caught in the moment, Matilda slipped, "Sonia?"Matilda took a second to get back up. She blinked her eye to see a soldier saluting her."Ma'am," he said before dropping his salute, "General d' Armee Camille Chevrolet of French Arctica wishes to discuss something with you immediately.""Oh," Matilda took a while to realise, "Where's he now?""In the lobby, waiting. General Camille said it's very urgent and mustn't be announced in public." answere

“Right, that’s the last of them!” Shouted Iowa as she carried her last case into the carriage. Isuzu climbed in, taking all the clothes and essential items she was given. Iowa hoisted herself up and sat beside Isuzu as Celeste approached the two, “All set?” She asked. The two nodded as they hugged some of the luggage. Celeste nodded and approached the driver’s seat. She sat down and drove away.The gates opened before them as the guards saluted Iowa as soon as they noticed she was inside the carriage. Iowa saluted back they passed through the black iron gates with the South British coat of arms engraved in the middle of them.They exited the building and turned right. For the first time, Isuzu has seen what capital looks like. She looked to her right to see huddles of houses made with brick complete with balconies and windows for every room and to her right were tall black fences that separated the main government building from the surrounding places and shops. Beyond those fences

Hi, thank you for reaching this far into the story. Let me know what you think about it. Is it bad or good? I'm not so sure myself so I'm asking you to write a review (no pressure, I'd just like some feedback.)This is Volume 2, A Dark, Desolate World, where the story continues on where the first volume stopped.Our main character Isuzu goes to South Britain, the British colony in Terra Australis to speak with the person who made her go there in the first place, the General.Aside from Isuzu's point of view, Volume 2 will also focus on Terra Australis' other characters like Celeste, Iowa, the antagonists and is basically the start of the actual story itself.Here, Isuzu will find herself in a new chapter in her life, one that completely caught her off guard so I hope you keep on reading.-Feelsweebman

Immediately they dispatched the letter, sending it to the capital, New London.A few hours later, General Matilda received a knock on the door as she was writing something. “Come in.” She said as she raised her head to see who it was.

Somewhere in the heart of the mainland of Terra Australis a few hours ago, South British soldiers gathered around in a campfire as the sun slowly rose.They huddled up in their coats as the slow, cold fog of morning dew. A few days ago they had received word from their general to leave their post before Sanctum Day but not before her permission.Then, a soldier on horseback shouted, &ldq

Sonia hugged her back.Unaware of the situation, Iowa hugged her sister in the middle of the halls, letting other cadets see. , "Iowa, not here, people could see." She whispered. "Right, sorry." Iowa giggled as she let go of Sonia. "Anyway what are you doing here, aren't you supposed to be with your cadets?" "Well, I wanted to see you off on your first mission!" Iowa answered. "Iowa!" Someone shouted in the distance. "Who's that?" Sonia asked. "Oh, that's my fellow cadet looking for me." She answered. "Wait, you should not leave them there you know? The two of you might get in trouble." Sonia whispered. "Yeah, you're right, I'm going to go now," Iowa looked back, getting ready to take off. "Wait." Sonia grabbed Iowa's wrist.

A week has passed, several serviteurs and priests have announced their most holy day, Sanctum Day to be held in four – now three weeks. Several members of the Divinity took to the streets and celebrated. The commanders and generals of every colony in the archipelago were gathered by General Matilda in South Britain to discuss the matter. Meanwhile,Isuzu ran to the deeper parts of the woodlands. Her mission was to be undetected by Iowa or Celeste before time runs out. "Right, I only have a few minutes left." Said Isuzu as she watched her small watch run out.She now wore a comfortable white shirt and a type of pants sewed together by Celeste to give her the best comfort as she ran around during training.She vaulted against small logs and scaled through small gaps and tried to avoid stepping on dead leaves because of the crunching it makes.Meanwhile, Iowa and Celeste ran beside each other and started to discuss their plan, "Let's split up, your vines should help," Iowa told Celes

Isuzu spent the rest of the day, practising getting in the world of pitch black and getting out of it. While Celeste and Iowa would support her from the outside, pulling her out if she could not. Isuzu entered that world over and over again. The structures inside started to develop even more.“Right, one last time before we eat dinner,” Celeste said as Iowa helped Isuzu settle down as she held her hand. “OK,” Isuzu answered as she held Iowa’s hand tighter. She closed her eyes as her brain started to visualise shapes and patterns in different colours. Isuzu relaxed her muscles but kept her chin up high, and as she opened her eyes,Everything was pitch black, all except for her.Isuzu walked confidently to the puddle where the other side was and gently dived into the large ray of light. She took deep breaths as she found herself on the surface of the pond and climbed out. She immediately dried up as soon as she walked around the pavement. The world around her, although still covered in
Terra Australis: Ethereal Secret Vol. 2 Chapter 3: Episode
A thick fog covered the desolate woodlands outside the capital of South Britain, New London. As fireflies huddled around the tall grass and leaves, beneath the surface of the forest hid a small cottage made of ordinary wood and metal sheets.As the roosters sang their morning hymn, one of the people inside got up their bed and went outside the house. She yawned as she approached an open campfire where the flames of yesterday disintegrated the little twigs it had left. She spaced out for a few seconds before kneeling in front of the campfire. The ground beneath it covered in ashes which reflected the silver-coloured hair of the lady as she gently placed her hand on one of the twigs, burned to a crisp.After yawning one last time, her red eyes started to glow as the surrounding ground around her start to vibrate. As the chicken called once more, the twig began to take back its original shape and size, not only that but also with the other twigs inside the campfire. Slowly regenerating a
