Chapter 34: The Mark of the Dragon
Last Updated:
2021-11-03 15:07:27It was her first time of everything. All things had to be and it made her heart leap for a minute. It was racing in kilometers and if she had a heart pro, she would have an attack right now. Good thing she hadn't.
The dragon was enormous and its head that almost as big as the moon on its fullest. She remembered her ascension and the moment she first flapped her wings.
She tried to reach the moon but it was impossible. There were miles before she could reach that place and although she knew that it was just a bunch of rocks and infertile soil, from above, her people, the Magicians still worshipped it. She had seen the other two they worshipped and it made her realize what else did she not know about them.
She hated that she didn't have any idea at all. She wanted to know everything and it sounded that she wasn't enough to be called the Chosen. Whatever it meant.
"Tell me your business, Magicians," the dragon demanded. "You

Their journey was not very easy. They faced so many dangers on the land but Albert had made sure that they were safe and out of the woods. Well, they were not out of the woods. They were in the middle of it and she was very happy. Exhilaratingly happy. For they found, not only the way out but the place she only wished to come since they arrived. Since they crashed.They found the Cabin. They reached at a plateau one night while they set camp. Then, she wondered why the place was so familiar. From where they were camping, she saw the light from somewhere and she could not mistaken a house. A simple house. There were lights coming from the outside because that was what she told them. Always out the lights on outside the house. You don't know who needs comfort at the middle of the night.That purpose was served at the moment and Betty was just too happy to live in it. They were tired but the sight of it made Betty's blood alive. She screamed with delight and eve

Ray felt it. They arrived at the Haven with a perfect timing. He was not sure if it was a good thing or bad but something was about to happen.Changes in the wind felt like a storm was coming. He created the Haven many years ago on his first trip on Earth, preparing the day that would come. And the day had come. There was a safety pin on the place that when there's a rise of power, or the power lines were shaking, he would know. The Haven was no longer the same except the purpose that it was created for.Ray, even the body of little Mark, he understood what Betty felt on finding the place. She was teary-eyed. She laughed while crying, not truly understanding how to react on such finding a small scent of home after the hell of four weeks out on the woods - after being dead to the world.Betty understood very much why she let Albert took him on his bedroom rather than in hers. That night was very special not just because they found

She found it difficult at first. The Night Children was a challenging race to raise. It took her so many rituals and many tears to gather their faith.She did not expect them to love her. Love was not she needed. She needed their support and cooperation in the coming war.It was laboring now. The scent of war was in the air and it fabricated of blood and revenge. Those who lived on the other side of the veil must be afraid of their rage.The deities did not care and the Night Children's anger was insurmountable. For centuries, they had been forgotten as if they did not exist. Quite left for the leftovers of humanity while their cousins on the Angels were given the Paradise.Miranda sat on the Constant's place. It took her some time to call it her own now. It had been Albert's always. And, everytime each of the Night Children looked at the place, they wondered why she was there.She was there because Albert gave up the Reign - not because she won it

Elena woke in a stabbing pain on her right arm and she knew that she was hurt but she didn't know why. She was in the infirmary of the Palace. By the smell of it, she knew it was alcohol and the white ceilings announced cleanliness. There were others there too. On the next beds, she didn't know why there were so many. There might be some war in the Palace of Los Barrios and she didn't know why. When she left, what war had been Jason's preparing? She asked herself so many times, trying to figure out some spaces in her head. But there were no answers coming in. Only pain on her arm. And, she hated when her own humanity slapped her in the face - she was limited and emotions were unexempt. She had to accept that reality for so long that she had lived. But, it was just hard to admit what was right in front of her. No one could have that satisfaction. No mortal had. Never. But, she was not just a mortal. She was not ordinary neither extraordinary. She

It was hard to say that Elena said the truth but it must be difficult for her to know what sacrifices she had given for the quest. Jason has to understand her silence. She accepted his visits to the Time Palace but she was not speaking to him. She was always looking far away. Jason gave her space and he needed to prepare her for what was about to come. Besides, he's not yet ready too. He's preparing himself as well. The drums of war were now rolling and he could see that they were almost ready. The smokes had been rising for days and the skies were no longer peaceful. The air was now arid of metal and the music played by the clang of swords and swishes of magic if not by the striking of lightning. The Palace was once a small peaceful community but someone was shaking it and it was just expected that these moments would arrive. They had the advantage of they prepared and the Magicians were just lucky because they had someone who had seen everything before.

Rudolf had been secretly amazed on how Ray managed to keep the place so peacefully intact while it was available for humans at the same time. The magic there was as strong as the first time it was built. The secret was placing a portal which a Siren made. Siren's portals were the most powerful portals in the whole magical realms. As that they were gatekeepers, they placed that options in each of the gates they were making so it would be available to them anywhere they were sent to go. Making these portals was not easy though. A Siren must be powerful enough to draw all the potential energies enough to create the tunnels and hole to the countless galaxies in the entire cosmo. Deciding to make one was like deciding to get a vacation to hell. A Siren must spent mortal months to gain their energies back. That was for the best of them and some did not just go lucky enough to survive. He wondered what Ray had sacrificed for this portal. All things needed sacrifice

The white ceilings and the ancient stone halls shone brightly that day - more brighter than the days before. The Council gathered on the White Hall of the Time Palace, certain in rejoicing the waking of the Phoenix. There were wines and wine glasses in the hall and there was food. Travelers had been busy all night drinking up themselves. "She is not yet awake," Rex said. "We can't celebrate yet. Rex aka Jason was the last who entered the hall and he was surprised on what greeted him. He could not blame them but this was not even appropriate. They had to prepare themselves more than ever and what a shame for them when she returned and found out this. No one responded them as it happened that they were all knocked down on the floors. The Council was a little group of Travelers who the Phoenix had chosen and said to be the best. He wondered how they'd become the best. It must be some wild parties. Wine and liquor bottles collected from different

He followed Ray's instruction when they reached the portal. On the tree, there was a door in there and Ray transformed his index finger into a key. The key looked like a normal key but bigger with numbers and letters on it. He could not read it. It must be a Siren's ancient language he did not know at all. He kept his pace as close as possible with Albert. His halfbrother knew nothing of time travel and although he hated him so much that his blood boiled when he saw him, he still cared. It was not just about them but of all the entire reality. Inside the portal where another more portals. Rudolf knew some of them but Albert knew nothing. They both stopped and wondered what to pick "You don't expect me to choose, do you?" Albert asked. "I certainly have no idea about this time stuff. Go, do your own thing. Rudolf chuckled. He certainly understand that there were literally thousands of choices in front of them and on the other side of the portal

"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

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.

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.

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.
