"Wait, benevolent. It means the good spirits right? Grandmother used to tell me about angels and demons." I saw his gaze fell on me as he stood opposite me, then I realized I was supposed to offer him something also. "I can check if there's another apple inside the bag, or something else." I was about to get up when I saw my respond made his nose to wrinkle.
"Apple, for what?" The look on his face was priceless. With his eyes narrowed, his thick brown brows pulling down and a bit of his almost white teeth exposed, creating a look somewhat between a confused and an irritated one.
"Food?" He stared as if I was going insane and only rubbish rushed out of my mouth.
"To eat—food?"
"Never mind. Tell me, what are you? An ang-"
"Hold it your majesty. I am, wait, and angel? No. I am not those things. They are demonic creatures and beings, with white

The ocean. You'd think going through the ocean, it would be filled with beautiful fishes and other living aquatic lives, and beautiful palaces underwater.Well think again!We travelled pass the tall dark trees that stood well arranged in the woods, eerie howls growling behind us. The flame still shone brightly in my hand, guiding us to our destination. We finally arrived at a shore. I didn't even know how, everywhere around us was covered in silent darkness. As soon as the horse arrived, it stopped and then the stone went off."Perfect timing." I mumbled and waited for a reply from the horse but it turned out it'd disappeared again. "Coward." The horse must had been wondering why I called it a coward, but I wasn't even talking to the horse.Jeez! I'm just as confused as you are.You couldn't tell where the dark skies ended and the dark seas bega

The Afterlife-"Next life. It's next life your majesty."The Next life.What happens to you when you look into their eyes?Definitely not what you are thinking my friend."Right. Noted benevolent being. Seriously, I need to give you a name." We continued on the tiring journey, all along in the dark woods, with the dragon stone as the only source of light asides the small rays that came from the stars above."I don't know what you could call me. Maybe Tree?""Tree-""Oh, no no. Maybe like Lizard. I've always loved that name." The way he called the name, caused me to freak out in disgust. Have I mentioned how much I bloody hate those slimy crawly creatures!I bloody hate those slimy crawly creatures."What in the gods name is great

"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

"Your majesty? Your majesty?" His voice disturbed over and over again, and in that darkness, we were still the only soul that lurked the demonic forest. Of course there were other beings out there too, but at least they crawled into hiding. "Your majesty?""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.

Millions of things I could do, ran through my mind, but none of it seemed possible. I could call on the power of the dragon stone, but it didn't seem to work. I could run back towards the beast, and fight again, but it would kill me in the blink of an eye. I could also stay low in the corner there, but then again, I would still die."Come out you foolish girl!" My breathing for some reason, increased and started beating faster like I had just ran a million miles. Then I saw it. The ring that was covered in blackish blood still lying on the floor in the middle of the room, then I glanced up at his head and I still saw the glow that appeared on his head. My eyes returned back to the ring on the floor again and I instantly knew what I had to do. How could I had been that foolish?"You are so dumb right now, wait, what do they call you?" Distraction. He needed to be distracted, since pride was something I'd noticed he couldn't deal with proper

"Your majesty. It's time to visit the castle." After some hours of silence, it finally spoke. Maybe because I'd threatened before about loosing it's life. But wasn't the spirit already dead?"I know. Thank you." I remembered how it mentioned earlier about not remembering it's name. A name was needed because after all, what would we be without our names? "How about I call you... Fortem. It means brave in Latin." I didn't even know how I knew that word, it just popped up to my head."Seriously? I love it.""You're welcome, Fortem." Do spirits smile or cry? I guess we'll never know."Are you sure you are ready to finally meet Lilith?""To be honest? I really am. I'm scared of course, but, I've been through enough not to be able to." I thought about all the little battles I'd encountered. The only reason I'd defeated them all was... It was merely by luck. Good luck on my side. Otherwise, I knew I w

We continued in silence again through the umber-brown, ancient forest, reeking nothing but age. Its woody incense was from centuries of snapping branches crashing to the forest’s floor and rottingsilently. Every sprawling tree we passed under reminded me of a watchful guardian, a silent sentinel of the groves. Venturing deeper into the tangled heart of this primeval forest, raised my hopes that it would reveal its dark secrets to us. We would find Lilith, slay the devil, and everything would be back to normal. But I wondered, every since my life had been opened to darkness, what would ever become normal to me again? The only thing that brought a tip of light to my dark soul, was the thought of me finding my sister. Once I did, what then would happen?"Stop!" The voice of Fortem rubbed me off from my thinking, and I stopped."What is it?""I don't know, but I know that we are not alone. We're being-"

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."

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.. I'm sorry Kerik. You just weren't in a stabilized form to have received it yet"Maybe she was right after all. Tara meant the whole world to me and she still does. My only motivation for living.

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 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

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.
