last update Last Updated: 2021-01-28 08:38:14

When my eyes opened again, I found myself at the gates of Talot. Just where I'd set off for my quest. The sound of a horse's neigh, nickered behind me, and I turned to observe my companion behind me. If I could have understood horses language, I would have heard something like; "hey your Highness! We're back. Alive!"

Or something close to that.

"Dieeee!!!" A voice drawled from behind, and I almost laughed at the poor threat of commanding me to die, but changed my mind on the sight of the image. It's sickly white eyes were the first thing I observed. Then the disgusting snake things that crawled out from the head, and the blued chapped lips; I recognized it immediately. The septics.

"Stay back!" I yelled at it as it crawled forward, thinking it woul

  • The Bedevilled Soul   Chapter Sixty two.

    My day started quite normal, if I might say so. Almost as normal as the previous ones, even too normal as of fact. Living in this changing canvass of weather andfoliage, of birdsong and playful wind, even the subtle shifted in light, patterns brought interest for the eye. The weather had been so warm in the past recent days, the air so velvety on the skin that I had began to imagine what life on paradise would have felt like. Clouds drifted by on the most relaxed of breezes, helping the eyes to appreciate the bluebird sky all the more. The rain, when it came, alighted as softlyas the shoes of a ballet dancer, adorning and rejuvenating the only stage that matters. Almost as if some heavenly divine creature had sprinkled down some magic powder to sooth the village and pardon with a not of relief as to the plague and other misfortune that had tragically struck.It was a spa from the time the light filters over the hills until it too takes its rest

    At least if there was one thing she wasn't lying about, it was that she didn't wanted to loose her friend. I definitely understood what she meant, and never would I allow her to loose a dear one, just as I'd did."Okay. So, let us say that I believe what you're saying, how exactly are we supposed to help this friend of yours? I asked."I don't know!" Her voice went off and she instantiated turned her back, as if she was crying and she didn't wanted me to notice. "I don't know exactly." She said, then finally returned her face to meet mine. "That is why I'd like to meet you, to talk to you. You're somehow the cure. That's all I know." She said it was all she knew, as if she was supposed to know more than that. I secretly wondered if she was a small goddess in disguise."What do you mean, all you know?" She paused and flashed a puzzled awkwardly looking glance at me. "I'm listening.""I don't really know, but I'

    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..

    My best dreams and worst nightmares had the same people in it. I knew that from day one, but sometimes when you're desperate and you don't care – the devil recognises your soul the most."Your sister?" The words came out without any backups. Nila only nodded to my question, burying her face down to avoid further questions."Well nice to hear but we don't have time for family reunion here." Kedar stepped forward cutting in between Nila and I. "Pendragon sent you to us, didn't she?" She was ready to talk business and I was glad for that."Yes." I replied. "I need to find my sister." I added immediately."Firstly, when was the last time you had a bath?" She eyed me from head to toes as her question pierced me like a sharp nail. She was right. I glanced down on what was supposed to look like a sandal and trust me, you do not want to see what I saw. I

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."

    "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.

    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.
