I sighed, wanting to agree with them but weighed down by the thought of so many other things. "We also have to settle with the other Lords." Even if nobody else would agree with me, I knew that strangely scary looking glare on Tobin's face would one hundred percent understand and agree with me. That was enough already. With him, I could gain enough power and even share with him. Just the thought was enough to drain my heart in the gutter. Remembering the one person I had made my right hand man, the commander of my soldiers. I wondered if it was okay to have someone else in his place only because he was gone. But most importantly, I wished he was just gone for a while, succeeding with his mission. Alive. I remembered him and a smile worked up on my face, only reminding him just how much I missed him.

"The lords would have to bow to us as soon as we provide the cure." Tobin's voice boomed loud the room, bringing me back to reality from day dreaming about Bellamy. I never thought that even I could be allowed to day dream about a person. It wasn't like my heart wasn't opened to love, especially even after Richard had chosen to betray our trust and run to the dark Lord. Even with that, I still had the guts to dare to love and feel affection. With all the dark past and fate of mine, it was still funny to think that love could still work it's way to find me. Then just as I was about to reply Tobin, reminding him that the lords weren't the type to just easily overlook, the Grinch raised up her book with just three large words written boldly and edible: 'LORDS FINDING CURE.' I didn't even notice that she was probably diverting her full attention to our discussion."Really?" I asked her in shock. They were so many things to say, but finding the cure seemed a bit over obsesse

"What is it Amelia!?" Peter screamed out loud like a little baby who's just been born, crying like he has just been attacked. "Ahh, what happened to you?" By the time he could even finish his statement, he was already at the entrance of the palace door. Shirtless. With big flabby stomach dancing in front of him.Don't ask me what, why or even how. It wasn't really a pretty scene to see if you asked me."Peter, relax." Amelia scoffed as she danced over to our side, with a big smile across her face. "I found it, and I can't even believe my eyes. I can't believe it." Her eyes squinted as soon as they got bright and her smile dulled and faded from sparkling remarkably happy to an emotionless one. At that time, Peter was already slowly advancing to meet us, both of his arms swung up high, as he tried wearing his tunic, adjusting his cloth pretty well."Amelia," I called to calm her down as she was far from calm at the mom

Happiness is in everything; I dare you to invite it in.It is in the rain, cool and fresh, just as deeply as thesunshine, for they bring forth different emotions.Happiness is enjoying the moment, being presentfor that gift that is living, and allowing it to becomeintense.For me, there is something about chopping a homegrown vegetable that soothes me to my soul; Ilisten to the sound as the knife cuts and then themetal meets the wood. I let my hands move slowlyin the silence of the room, allowing randombirdsong and windy gusts to infuse my mind. Theearthy flavours develop an intensity, there is a burstof aroma with each cut and in the quietness within,I am happy.Other times I burst with life in the joy of movement.I love to dance to vibrant music, loud and strong.

"Before we get on with anything, we need to first off know what our problems are." Mr. Big baby, Peter Toski offered in the throne roomas we gathered together. We had no choice than to create a better Talot for the sake of the people. For that, we all needed to work hand in hand as one. And of course, we had to literally be one for us to achieve anything good, even if we wouldn't get along on a normal day. Plus in reality, I wasn't really left with much of a choice in the first place, especially since Mona and Lily were out of town."We don't have any problem really, Peter. Just get the bloody cure for the septic and save Talot." Tobin quickly interrupted almost before Peter could finish with his statement. "So maybe we should think well before we speak.""Hmph! I just thought-""You thought nothing you big baby." He cuts in, without even letting Peter finish his whining in peace."Quiet you two." I felt a

For Kerik happiness is simple. It's hugs with hermama and playing "let's pretend," it's an upliftingstory at bedtime and the knowledge that me andher mom have life all taken care of. Food is alwaysavailable, she has a comfortable bed. She hasfriends to play with. We walk in the woods andsplash in the stream. She doesn't care what thetime is unless she's hungry. Sure, she throws a fitwhen her brain can't understand her world, I'm sureI still do that too. Sometimes she screws her faceup and stomps her feet, goes red in the face andwaves her hands, but then my tantrums don't lookpretty either - not that she ever sees them. I want tolearn from her how to be happy again, I want to seethe world through her eyes. If you showed her agold coin or a kitten and asked her to pick one,she'd take the silly cat every time. There's a simplewisdom there and I love it.The happiness is infecti

Alone now in the woods, it looked ominous and eerily quiet. Even the sound of the horse's foot was silent. All that could be heard was the susurration of the leafs in the gusty winds. The old yellow and brown leafs hustled in the the wind, as the sound of dead, weak trees, creaked at every push the wind gave. The horse neighed as if complaining why we weren't there yet. And he was right. The funniest thing was that, I didn't even know where I was heading to. I halted the horse to a stop, then went under a huge tree with my guide-the magical book, to lead the way. After sitting down on the heaves of leaves that pilled up on the floor, I took out my dagger to feed the book of its food. Blood."Nothing?" I found myself muttered when I saw that the book showed nothing on the page. It just remained blank. At first when I brought out the dagger to cut myself on purpose, it hurt a lot. The process of putting a blade straight through your skin, was definitely a pai

"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

Live had been what we call a living hell for all of us at Talot, like walking straight towards the gates of the underworld. More of the villagers had turned into the septics, making the rest of us that were saved and not turned really few, as if a tiny drop in an ocean. We'd had to protect the inner walls from corrupting with the outsiders. At one point I accepted others from other kingdom to dwell in with us, for protection and provision of shelter and food. I'd done that with a pure heart without any hint of doubt or regret. Now, with the rate of which other corrupted people had filled Talot, it was slowly starting to become close to unbearable. Scarcity of food had hit us harder than a solid rock. The only source of meat we had left after the keepers took all from us, was just the people from Tobin's place. Ever since they'd dared cross their boundary with me, and lost Tobin to me, they'd done nothing but made the kingdom a pain in the ass. They said I will not bow to them. Haha!

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."

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.

"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.

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.
