Power is neither good or evil, but its beholder makes it so. A weapon is mostly described as evil, however it can also save one's life. It is the user that decides whether it is used for good or bad.Power has the ability to produce an effect, to influence, to change. And without change, what was life anyway...
I had always lived my life as a simple young woman with no problem. Why wouldn't I? I had everything an average person should dream of having. My sister and I made an amazing team. I mean if you didn't compare her extremely tall and skinny physique to my petite shape. Or why we didn't shared the same long coal black hair that cascaded down her back every time she walked.
To be honest, she was the exact opposite of me. And I had always envied that part of her. But the two of us were inseparable.
Until all hell attacked.

Tell me if a person falls apart alone in the dark,does it make any sound? And let's say it does,is it as loud and devastating as a decaying broken heart when it's finally found? Or is the sound a soft strangulation hidden that we all miss the time behind words like 'I'm fine'?Nila had mention earlier that Tara's necklace just fell on the floor and she didn't wanted to return it yet because she was afraid of how I'd react."I found it, and I knew I should have rightfully returned it but..

"Kerik! Kerik!"I could hear a voice faintly crying out.That was strange. My name was being called."Kerik!" The voice became a little louder.It was just a dream. Nothing was real. Finally I could wake up."Kerik!" Ragnila screamed out shaking my shoulders.No. It was all real. Fenrel had just vaporized into thin air and Tara.. She was still gone."He's, he's,he's-" Staring blankly at Ragnila as I fumbled for the right words,wishing everything could just made sense. I felt a lump in my throat as I was already misty-eyed. No. I fought against the urge to cry. I had to do something. Anything else but to cry."Kerik. I saw what happened,I know it was intense but I know how to help. Let me help,please. I know who took Tara." She babbled on,but got my attention when she mention Tara."Who?""I don't know exactly but I think
"Very well then. You will get to reflect on your choices well enough in the future."The tone in her voice alerted nothing but one sense. Danger. I had endangered the lives of others because of my foolish pride. I could have walked away politely, and save others. Tara. But leaving the devil to reign did not fully assure me that my family and friends would be saved."This is your last chance Kerik." She added, then paused. Waiting for me to fully accept to the proposal. My mind raced over a million things. What if I choose this option, and defeating the devil seems more impossible than I'd expect. Then I would never forgive myself. If only I could get more time, more days to puzzle over the prodigious decision. But even if I was opportune to that kind of indulgence, I feared my answer would still remain constant."Yes. That's what I choose. This is what feels best to me, so I've made up my mind." Her head lowered into a slow s
"Not yet, your majesty." She scrutinized, as she plastered a half-smile at me. Maybe waiting to confirm whether I would flare up and finally either punch her right in the place that would hurt, or roar in anger and consume the souls of them all. I only returned a false smile to her as a reply. Not the obvious type that showed the tremendous effort in the making of the smile, but the kind that contoured the pretence in the smile. She wasn't supposed to see me getting upset because I wasn't upset with her at all. She wasn't supposed to feel a tiny percentage of my transferred rage."But, Kerik?" Mona called, and my heart nearly sank. She shot a piercing look at me and smiled with teary eyes. I almost bursted out into tears but quickly calmed myself and tried assuring my mind that it wasn't really my fault. I was fixing this. "You said you had a dream about how we could save Ragnila, and your sister as well. And Lavi. How... How do we save them exactly?" 
"So, you killed the god?""Shall we get over to the next place? The whole point of the mission gave me a headache. A painful headache that you have no idea how to get rid of, you can't cut your head off just because you wanted to cure your headache! Although I wished I could just fill that, only if I wouldn't die.You know that feeling, when wish you could just stop something but you dare not stop. You see, there's a certain level of tiredness that equates to insanity; for me it was when I'd like to temporarily dislocate my spirit from my body, as if I could ask the universe to take me out for just a short while, let mysoul go wherever souls go to be. I'm a fairlybrave person, I am, but sometimes I just didn't wanted to feel the process of recovery all over again. I knew I had to wake up feeling okay in the morning. I would, but it was simply a level of worn-out-ness that hurts. But I knew I wasn't tired physically. It was the mind a
"Kerik! Kerik!"I could hear a voice faintly crying out.That was strange. My name was being called."Kerik!" The voice became a little louder.It was just a dream. Nothing was"Here, follow me." The woman who was supposed to be my mother, lead us to a small room close to the kitchen. "We'll be safe in the pantry, my child." She smiled again, like she'd been doing since she appeared to us."Thank you ma'am." Bellamy quickly appreciated her rendered help, and looked at me for a reply too. "We thank you so much." He added after getting nothing but a blank expression on my face. "She's just been through a lot.""No worries. I'll leave you two to send off anything that might leave a trail on your hide out." Her lips curled into another smile, but was instantly replaced with a worried look. "I love you, so much." She whispered, then focused on Bellamy. "Please take care of her, and stay safe." Having said that, she t

"WHAT!" My voice came out a little louder than I'd expected. "What the bloody hell do you want?""Where are we going next?" And with that statement, he provoked every nerve that filled me, and I could fill my eyes twitched in annoyance, like I could just face him and strangled every bit of essence left in his poor soul.Meat.You don't even have to ask. Judging from the name, nothing normal could have come out from it.You don't even have to ask. Judging from the name, nothing normal could have come out from it."But still-""But still-"
The tone in her voice alerted nothing but one sense. Danger. I had endangered the lives of others because of my foolish pride. I could have walked away politely, and save others. Tara.

Her head lowered into a slow single nod. Then she came forward and handed me the amulet around her neck."Once you
"Kerik you're not expecting anyone, are you?" Tara finally asked, making use of her words and immediately walking straight to the door."I know I'm a lot of things, but I don't keep insane humans as friends."Following Tara to the door I thought about who must have been desperately trying to break down our door.Tara slowly reached for the door and opened it gently. Standing grumpily in front of us was a burly figured bald man. Glancing at him, I quickly observed an ornamented sewing of a black serpent on his chainmail amour. A knight you might say, but no ordinary one. He was a member of the keepers. The bald Knights. Even the women always were too. It was believed that they had to get all form of impurities so one can be pure and cleared from their sins. Like that made any of them less corrupt."Took you long enough!"he scolded, his cold eyes fixed on us.
Sir Ayer was dead. Dead! Nobody knew who killed him. No. Everyone pretended like they didn't know his killer. A logical thing to do,if you didn't want to become next. A coward. That was what everybody became. But I wasn't ready to turn into one. I might be sweet,nice and ready to abide to every rules and regulations, but the demon inside me was only sleeping. Not dead. 'Think about your life,is it worth foolishly loosing?' You might want to ask me that. Well is doesn't really feels like I was living. There's just the body,but no life in it.Charging grumpily to the gates of hell,well it wasn't scary at all. I felt no fear,on the contrary all that cluttered up in my lifeless body was this ravaging rage. This time the devil should be scared of me. A powerless,thoughtless, completely hopeless me.I thought there would be a somewhat change in mind as I got to the entrance,but no. Nothing."You there, open up!" If it's
"Kerik you're not expecting anyone, are you?"

Getting there, a young man covered in full pile of blood was laying helplessly on the ground. His eyes.. Oh his eyes were already so pale that I was starting to doubt whether there was any black left in them. It became so hard to even notice where the wound was from. I couldn't really tell much, but from the looks of it, it looked like he was butchered on purpose. He had been completely rough handled. Poor man. What feared me most was that his soul was already half gone from his body as his body was close to being empty at the moment. It was so scary, yet sad and devastating. I couldn't protect him. All of the happiness inside of me, crumbled away and dissolved into the air like dust. There was a silence to my soul; like I was fall leaves under frost. I felt the chill in my blood, coldness bringing the synapses of my brain to a stand still. Part of it was a pain, yet one I felt I could endure, one I could sleep through night after night without the need of false hope.
