One more thing, he's Damned - like Kristina. Where was she? Ray was in the form of little Mark and he looked at the little young man who conveyed unspoken languages. Mark was waiting and he must be sure what would happen next. There was a lifetime when all these things happened like clockwork. Sirens were the most secretive beings. They were right to be so. It's a strange thing to protect knowledge so diverse and huge. It could shake worlds, beliefs and whatsoever. Betty finished packing the herbs to her bag. A petal of the Sirens tears was covered in a very thin cloth and she secured it inside her patch, separate from the others which she broiled. Philip entered the made-up tent and announced his preparation."I haveRelated chapters

The last cheerful thing he remembered was the loudness of the Arena back in the Siren's Palace. Now, it was a whole different place.A Samsonara knew by heart what a place was made of. If it's on magic or through people's hardwork, they would know. These walls were both. How was that possible?Rony jumped after Mark who cued him to follow. Elena lined right behind him. The other challengers had been portalled to some other places. However, he could feel that these walls only bordered the field. There were places here that led to other places. Who made it?Dragons were not evil on Highlands except when threatened. They were huge when matured and could giant twenty to thirty feet. With their scaly bodies and reptilian anatomy, no one would dare to challenge one.They would have listened when Mark said that dragons like Sirens were territorial. The Walls stood a thousand feet or more that the clouds were impossibl

After that searing pain, there was a calmness that Elena felt for the first time. The others were still astonished and clueless on the past events. Where they were was an absolute mystery in itself. There was no human being on sight but a population had inhabited this place for some time before. Skeletons, human skeletons, found lying next to the room they were locked in.A torch was burning at the very center of the hall and next to it was a chair deserving of a Royalty. Somehow, she felt that it was hers and it was calling her. Memories? Were those some part of her? In the past life? Magicians did not believe in reincarnation but Travelers know that spirits do travel. It might be here in a minute and then gone many years ago. What differed were the bodies these spirits entered into. That was why no one could remember. The human brain only remembered those it remembered. What the spirit knew were the hunches. It was like pinching her on the gut

Elena boxed the Circle with her fists. She was crawling on all fours. Her pain was unimaginable."Ahhhhhh!!!!" she screamed. "Stop it!""You need the pain to become whole," Red said.Elena named her already. Red. If she's not harder on telling her name, she would have a much better choice to call her. The child on a red hood was visiting again. She was more cheerful momentarily as if she was too glad of Elena's pain."I cannot live it!" Elena hissed under her breath. "It's too painful.""Truth is painful, darling," Red said. "You need to be stronger when it comes. Or, you'll forever cage in your circle.""This is not in the books!" Elena begged. "If I had known, I wouldn't have tried."Red chuckled. She was almost laughing. "No one had ever lived to write the truth."The pain started from her head, down to her spine. Then, when it reaches her tailbone, flashes of memories were rushing int

He was old and he's tired. He did not know where to go except search that Paradise. Los Barrios would not be home to him again - maybe, until this time, or maybe this time would be his last.He had followed Albert with the throng of these lost people from the crash. The Siren was leading them and Albert knew that the child he was carrying wasn't a child but an immortal who had role in this coming war.Miranda had been at last the Constant of the Night Children and Albert had no need to worry about that. What Albert lost did not equal to the glory that was waiting him. Home.Rudolf did not need to shapeshift. He was an Arium and what he only needed was his magic to hide his face. He didn't need to hide his face from the people too. He knew they didn't need him to be real. They were as hopeless as he was. He hid only his face from Albert. Albert was an immortal who did not have any idea about the timelines which didn't become

He might have noticed the joy in Betty today. Was that it? Joy? Or just hidden sadness, tried to be concealed on some laughter?He did not care. The world had changed somehow for a bit when he saw her laughing - for the first time. They had stopped walking on sunset and set up camp for their tired selves. Albert was leading them and he was sitting far behind them, taking his rest. He had carried Mark all day and he understood how tired he was.Mark stayed with Albert even when they had all already settled. He was glad of it though. He could have some alone time with Betty.They gathered around a fire. Some men had made jokes on their game for their dinner. They were roasting a rabbit and two little birds. That would not be enough meat for them but they were so glad that they had something to share over the fire. It was not the food though. It was the talk.They grew to be closer with each other and it would take some time for them to ad

Repetition made some things bearable. She thought she knew it all. In theory, she did and it was harder to make it worked than theorizing it.She kept on telling herself that she was good at it - even better than the other realities she participated. She remembered all the faulty efforts of the Phoenix on healing time. She never forgotten it, but what she's afraid was knowing that she never learned something from it. Didn't she learn something?She knew she had learned something but somehow, it seemed that it was not good enough anymore. She's facing reality. And, it was harder than she thought it would be. Being her as a Constant was just new to her. It was when the time turned and everything was new.She had to make a decision now. The Night Children was hopeless and they needed a leader - not just like Albert. They needed someone who was better than Albert. He was too sentimental and even the smallest change of habit was a di

She had been able to keep the tavern from Albert for so many years before she decided to show it to him. The very reason she hid it was because she had other transactions. She catered vampires and humans in the place for business. When Albert showed his interest to her, she knew that the hiding should end then.She invited him for pleasure. She had some thoughts on how he felt about her. They were both confused. They were immortal and they had quite a lot of time to figure out about their emotions.She marked her territory. The tavern was no longer a safe space and though Miranda was a friend now, she could not trust her yet. There were secrets better unknown to some. She decided to take some place in the forest near the waterfalls since there was a portal there. As legends told, a Siren was guarding the place and when there was a Siren, there was a gate it was keeping.She wanted to do her business where there was

She struggled to see that the world she went in was too beautiful to be so confusing. She heard music - beautiful as it was but it held a language she could not understand - like listening to a good tune but on a different language.She could not describe it. It was perfect. It was a Paradise but it made no sense. She realized there was no light of day there and there was no night. She was enclosed on a planet of pure magic. She could feel it vibrating on her skin and seemed to be her blood telling her that she knew this place very much.She faced the woman who bore the same face as hers. The only difference they had was the manner of their dressing. She was a Magician from Los Barrios. The Palace housed the twelve tribes from the lines of angels who went to Highlands to reproduce. A very long time ago, deities could come and go to Highlands and enjoy the pleasures of men. Angels were sent as messengers and since they spoke a diffe

"Have you eat something already?" Betty asked. "It's still a long day ahead."I did have," he replied. "A little. The young men ate all of it."That's why they looked so happy," she commented. "It's as if they actually made a joke that so silly."That is right," Rudolf said. "Who are their parents?"I don't know," she answered. She called the thin girl to come over her. "Well, young men these days, what could you possibly expect?"Generous?"Betty laughed at that. So hard and she was almost knocking herself. Rudolf didn't understand much though what's so hilarious with the statement."I am so sorry," she apologized as she wiped the little tears on her eyes. "That was the funniest thing I've heard since the . . . crash. Generous might have been a word when humanity knew how to build houses and created a neighborhood. Not possible on a time of survival."You can be wrong at that too," he said. "I have been generous

Old Peter was there with a boat and there supplies which Elena told Lloyd to separate from the goods to be presented at the tradeElena breathed the air that once was full of sweet sweat of farming and the scent of vegetables and fruitThey glided from stalls to stalls, keeping their eyes open for possible encounters. Elena had always her dagger tucked in her waist. It's not visible to whoever she had with. Though Raymond knew it, and that Elena could handle herself well, he felt a sudden urge of protectiveness that was deep in his heart. He was nothing in him that would protect them but he felt so powerful that he didn't know how comeThe stalls had a few number of trading merchant farmers. Some were to their families fighting Boldon. They were safeTheir next passage was pass the port"Your mother was a born businesswoman," Elena said in hushed tone

It must be a wonderful morning. The breeze felt warm to the skin and great for breathing. It felt more like having a good sunbath on a late afternoon twilight. She opened her eyes and her very own private pool in the secret underground of the Palace satisfied her with the things she would never felt outside.She used to be alone - even before. So, it did not matter to her. She learned that being alone was much better to be with someone who wished no blessings for her. There were too many who wished to be closed with her - to befriend her. However, those whom she learned to give entrance to her personal life were either dead or a villain."This is much better," she said to no one in particular. "If your cage gives you satisfaction, why do you need to get out?"Prisoners in jail are given food, shelter and clothes. They just have to do some chores like what we do in the house as mortals. But they are not truly free.Elena had been listen

Since the two brothers left Betty's Haven, Ray felt an absolute uneasiness. He knew where and when they went. As a Siren, he made himself quite acceptable in the knowledge of keeping track of those who passed the threshold that kept reality from fantasy. Those thresholds discouraged so many travelers and those who aspired because it was a great pit of eternal darkness. But he knew that those who understood the principles of crossing boundaries between the times, that eternal darkness only held eternal mysteries to the unknown. However, the traveler should know what he was doing for that matter or else he would find himself somewhere he did not wish to be. He'd be lost for eternity as well.Ray made peace on waiting them. But as the day grew tenser and the Night Children broiling around, he gave up peace. He's still Betty's little Mark. So, to avoid suspicion which was entirely difficult to avoid, he gave himself a mysterious sickness that the poor young lady kept herself busi

She looked back on the wooden stairs which spiralled the Great Tree of the Sky Kingdom. This tree stood thousands of years, towering around a thousand miles from the ground. Everything looked like ants down from there and the wind whooshed and howled like a giant storm was coming."You know Rudolf's portals?" Ray, the Siren, asked behind her.Elena did not turned to face him. She knew what he would say and she did not care about it. The Sirens made their way with the gods and there was no point of befriending them if their loyalty could not be trusted"Yes," Elena replied. "Rudolf is a powerful Magician."You should know that he does not make portals before," Mark announced, not moving from where he was standing. "I am a Siren and the making of gates and portals should only be known to Sirens."And yet, Rudolf knows. Is that his mistake that you taught him how to muster the gift?Of course, Elena knew that the late King of the Sky King

Standing over the porch, overlooking the view of the Mountains, brought up so many fond memories. The green valleys downwards and alive browns of earth - woods and the rich humus - reminded her when things were just simpler. The smelt of fresh tropical air signalled that summer was coming - and summer was the time of joy.A lot of times, she wondered if she could just turn back time and lived there for eternity - repeatedly. She did have the opportunity and now she dreaded it. To be stuck there for eternity was not a blessing. It never was. It was not living afterall. Time was something you spent and never take back. One should either dreaded it or cherished it for there such no thing as perfect.Raymund the Siren waited in the black room. This room was the only place where Sirens were admitted since in the Highlands, Sirens were considered dangerous. That might be because they never admitted themselves under the Reign of the Three States. They chose to be different, a

It would be a glorious day in the Highlands. Or so what Joana thought that early dawShips from the Islands Across the Great Sea had brought the New World in the harbors. When the light of the day will be fully bloom, the trade center would be busy. Thus, such thought made Joana high spiriteThe sites where the armies camped were reigned by full action. Soldiers lined up behind their island ba banners. The kitchen was boosting of movements too. By midnight of the last day, the hunters and the fishers brought their goods as per command of their state heads towards the kitchen. The women attended the arrival then just soon, the bell rang for the breakfast preparatioAs it was agreed that since the Great Wall in the East hadn't down yet, no business would start at the trade center. Then, it seemed that Highlands had to cater the needs of the increasing population. By that the occasion had raised crisis. Food became as

Exhausted and starving, Raymond urged himself not to collapse. He pushed his way out to the dark tunnel. At his right side, he supported Elena's weight. If he would collapse, nothing would help them. If he would collapse, who would take of Elena? No. He wouldn't collapse and lost consciousness. He had a lady to take of. The lady so much precious in his lifElena had lost consciousness right when they were about to find a way out from the steel door they had entered from the inside tunnel from the Water Palace. He thought it was exhaustion that Elena fainted but he realized that he even was fainting. The darkness was to thick but it wasn't just the darkness who was tempting him to surrender to unconsciousness. It was these voices. "So many voices I couldn't determine who," he told Elena. Elena told him that she heard it too. However, what he heard was different. Those were crying of people alive. His were dying crieIt's almost dark whe
