I spent all of sunday training my ass off with Michael. He taught me how to do that spear thing on a awhole new level, which I wasn't sure I would be able to pull off but Seraphim's extra magic juices really helped. The move he taught me was called a Prismatic Flarestorm, I basically form the spears out of light and rain them down, which also ended up exploding which I still don't know why that happens.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPSW4f4lo5
Then he taught me Helios Smite, which is just like a huge bolt of lightning. Which also exploded.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XIZRZ4SnS
Anyway, that same night Deimos taught me Apollo's Barrage, which is a cast of small light projectiles that swarm towards targets. We kinda made out after that, you know for him to charge or whatever.

And I've been having hard time, I don't know if it's the encounter I had with Vel'Shamar but not only have I been shaken up, but I've been smelling things too which are making me a little uneasy. The most prominent of these smells is the smell of burning flesh that wafts into my nostrils at random times. Everytime that happens I can feel my surroundings almost closing in on me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzDg1N6oDs
I've been trying to not show that something is bothering me, but right now I can feel myself shutting down.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveI603Dmn3
We have a Force assignment today, we'll be moving refugees who's town was destroyed in a terrorist attack. But as of right now we had assembly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VTFuX8m08
"Morning school." Professor Eternus greeted.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WP2ZrU6WR
We all stood. "Good morning Professor Eternus." The school greeted back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MKV5lMttO
"Thank you, you may all take your seats." And we all do.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKWIc3x1As
"We have a few announcements. Firstly..."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDFa1yFws7
"You don't seem excited for our Force assignment." Raphael whispers next to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJChQw87Y2x
I shrug. "I guess I'm more nervous."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyesBEdwBJV
"Why are you nervous?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG37V9Hpet
"I don't know, I guess I just don't think I'm ready to be out in the field." I say back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIwas7SH5X
He shakes his head, with a smile before bumping my shoulder with his gently. "Theres nothing you need to worry about, nothing ever happens, we just move them to a refugee neutral zone. No fighting, no nothing."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFDac5LFNG
I nod. "I hope so."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hiBayVB9I
"You'll do great." He says and I offer him a smile, which I don't think he realised was a little strained.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGZw80ujlr
"What is your affinity Strain by the way?" He asks me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c3CbcsPul
"Uh...Luminis." I decide to say since it was the only one I was learning right now anyway.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtipcOgQw6Y
"Basically after this, we just change into our field wear which is like a fancier PE kit and tracksuit. Then we're driven to the town, then we move the refugees on foot." He explains.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ILjGu0pHe
"On foot? How long would that take?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyDKYZRH7T
"Four hours tops." He says and I nod. "Don't worry, I won't let anything bad happen to ya."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nBZ4I4JIY
I smile and roll my eyes. "Thanks Raph."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFyvhd8KXh
"Auditions for our anual school play will begin after midterm break which is in two weeks. So theres something for you kids to look forward to." Professor Caeline announces.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5aAbSGXfa
And that means two weeks left until my first trial.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFayTS5koS
Great.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPoo3CdYfM
Assembly goes through with a small skit from the junior class which actaully really funny, also I had no idea there were students here that were part animal. I mean some have animal features- that was mean, some have animal characterists but I never knew some were a cross of humanoid and animal. Like the girl in the skit, she was a CAT. Like she was the size of a human, and she could talk but she had fur and ears. Which to me was super bizarre.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfQOhAN9Xh
"May Force 626 and 111 stay behind for your mission briefing." Professor Eternus says and everyone starts leaving the Auditorium except our Force and funny enough, Michael's.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y546OHT8K
Once everyone else leaves, Professor Eternus speaks up. "Morning all, I hope you are all rested for your mission today." He starts. "For the benefit of our new student, Leodonis, we have an easy one for you today. Your objective is to move Faelysians from their village that was just destroyed in a recent attack to the nearest refugee camp. Force 626 you will be in charge of moving women and children, Force 111 you will move the elderly. Any questions?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PR1S1iu6b
No one raises a hand at that. "Great, Force 111 will guide you guys in any areas you may be doubtful in. The buses will be out front in half an hour. May Father Koros be with you all."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZh0dQajbq
Everyone says a small 'thank you' before we all start to leave.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxTlKw0yre
As soon as we're out of the auditorium, Erika speaks. "Why the hell are they sending that pretencious Force with us as if we need babysitting?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDURtW150oY
Raphael rolls his eyes. "I was thinking the same thing, now we're stuck with those douchebags the whole day."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg79YkTGYi
"It might not be so bad." Rebecca speaks up.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCHHDT1Ud2
"Yeah, they might suck but I think it will be fun." Lakota says.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtNxal4nlY
"Wait, why do we hate them so much?" I ask.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhO0gJJuODX
They all collectively groan. "They are assholes, the whole group is made of celestials Leon. Bossy, conceited, arrogant celestials." Raphael says, which makes me confused.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUJXKb65gb
"Aren't you..."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMxxfdyFFs
"Thats besides the point, these guys are assholes." Raphael says, still heatedly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh39gMeAwDI
I just nod cause I have no idea why everyone is so mad.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNRYZO6ju1
"Where do we go now to change into our field stuff?" I ask.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCIfMdkhRN
"Outside by the bus." Saeg says, and she anticipated my next question. "No we don't change in the open. It's a spell."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNBavrK8k9
I just nod again because I still don't know whats going on.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuQULHqsmU
We all make our way through the school and eventually to the main entrance, outside were two small buses with our Force code on them and behind ours was what looked like a horse carrier. Erika smiles brightly before running over to the carrier and sticking her hand in.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhYVXll634
"Nyla is in there." Saeg says and I nod at that, a smile bracing my features cause of how happy Erika was to see her familiar.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlljZabTEE
There was a man outside too, he didnt look odd or anything but he was just stood there. Everyone walked over and stood in a circle, which took me a sec to realise, so I did the same thing.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrsAPACXUB
The man raised his hands and did some weird motions while muttering and mumbling before a glow engulfed everybody. It felt like those transformations that those girly cartoons always did, and it tickled more than I thought it would. Then in a blink of an eye, we were in our field attire.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqSMvcUVIJ
It wasn't anything special. Just a simple black compression shirt with the schools logo in white and black tracksuit pants and sneakers. Then I looked to Erika whos logo was in a light red, and mine was in yellow.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlpg3DCvdy
"It's cause were SS rank." She says and I nod and at that.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoULI4UQIk
"Departure is soon." The man said and everyone nodded, starting to get into the buses. Michael's Force did their own circle and they were getting into their buses too, as he was about to get in he caught my eyes and gave me a small nod. I smile and offer a small wave, to which he ignores. How rude.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqod8DTA4c
Right as I was about to get into our bus, someone spoke up. Watch it be Deimos.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FClgnZ5hn
"About to leave without me cupcake?" Deimos says from behind me, directly into my ear.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTzlVJ2PKS
Told you.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs60ieKHYV
"Hey." I greet, a bit softer than I thought it would come out.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6kRJvmktB
Before he could question me, Lakota, bless his heart, interrupted. "We sit together?" He asks.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmbmHgd1en
But the demon behind me, answers.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgzk6mtdEb
"He's sitting with me." Deimos responds for me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukqIH1skYY
Lakota looks to me for confirmation to which I just shrug. He nods and gets into the bus and actually sits next to Raphael instead.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBr8sWh6hM
"You can take the window seat." Deimos says and I nod, getting in and sitting by the window and he takes the seat next to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdN23nDphO
Everyone gets into the bus and we start moving not too long after. Everyone was talking nd engaging one another but I just didn't have it in me today. I watched as everyone smiled and laughed, trying my best to reflect the emotions I should be feeling, but...it felt like I had a gaping hole in my chest that just kept growing with each passing moment.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx81GlVLvFE
I take another deep breath and close my eyes, concentrating on my friends voices, their laughs, the sound of the engine, the feeling of someone next to me. Concentrating on the now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmKEDcyLKr
When I open my eyes Deimos is eyeing me weirdly. I don't have the energy to talk to him about anything, so I just pull out my phone and my earphones and plug them in.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiUc28xrBc
I wasn't disturbed for about half an hour before Deimos started poking my cheek.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdY7ekQp6W
I huff and pull out my earphones. "Yeah?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulYrHIn5x3
"Why have you got a stick up your ass?" Was his immediate questioning.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kuk1ilb7i
"Just tired."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7KRYd71zm
"We talked about lying to demons, sweetheart."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWaMAsjk4G
"I'm just not feeling too great. I've been training all week, I'm exhausted." I respond, he doesnt say anything immediately, he just holds eye contact for a moment before shrugging.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoG4NLflAr
"Just remembered I don't give a shit." He says with a grin before pulling out his own earphones and sticking them in his ears and pretending I was not there.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvATWbwzP1
I would have been offended if this happened on any other day, but right now I'm just so freaking exhausted
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwz7EAB2FT
We drove through what seemed like abandoned towns. The infrastructure was different too, most buildings were large domes with many windows. The domes varied in size, some big, some small, but they all had this mix of futuristism and modern, but there was no doubt they were abandoned. Every town we drove past was a devoid of any life. It was like they were frozen in time.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2VcdzaYNE
All completely barren.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGbzY5zNOj
Eventually we drove into the woods. It was weird though because it felt like something was stalking us, I don't know if it was just because of the last few days we've had but it made me really uneasy.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47Uskp4pMK
We kept driving for about an hour before we went off road and onto a trail, soon we made it to what the camp the villagers had made. From my spot in the bus the first thing I noticed was the way everyone moved.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgybUpBsT9
Elders, women, men, children all had this almost sluggish move to them. Many were sat around a fire, while others removed clothing off hang wires. The next thing I noticed is that they all had jewelry and gold embelishments on, some head pieces on what seemed to be the adults with bangles reaching their elbows. On the children just a few bracelets on their wrists and anckles. Many had hair colors not typical to their skin color, I saw a young boy with beautiful dark skin and a bright, almost platinum head of hair. A woman with olive skin with fiery red hair and a young girl with this dark violet color. It was stunning, and lastly I noticed their tents. Everything was set up in a cirlcle formation, with fire sights on the outside of the circle, along with their hang wires.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJlMdoxjw6
I was pulled out of my daze when the man driving spoke up. "Your mission to move these refugees to a camp about twenty miles South East to the neutral refugee camp. As Force 626, your objective to move woman and children. Good luck. May Father Koros be with you all."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bNKKqskpf
Everyone says small 'thank yous' before everyone starts to leave the bus. My immediate thoughtwas why can't the school move refugees with their buses instead of us walking twenty miles, but I guess it's just to help out and get a sense of collective suffering, which is kinda sad but anyway, lets focus on helping everyone.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvs5cTz4x9
As we exit the bus the little kids around the camp run closer, a small glint of light flickering through their eyes. Raphael and Erika immediately start helping pack up the camp, while Lakota, Saeg and Rebecca talk to the kids with big smiles while Deimos starts putting out the fires without speaking to anyone. A moment later, Michael's Force arrives in their bus. They aswell get straight to work, waisting no time, one even intentionally bumps my shoulder when they walk past me. Asshole.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbg8kMnpF3
"Theres usually a town elder we have to speak to. I'm leading this mission so that's my job, but since you're you, you should come with me." Michael says from beside me, I didn't even register he was next to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt0ogylgf7
I turn to look at him but he's walking already, so I just follow. We walk through the camp and I feel my heart sink. I wonder how many people they've lost from this senseless battling, all this bloodshed that has definetly changed everyone heres lives.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw2jbA1WFO
We walk into the circle where a single tent was at the center of it. I follow Michael to it and he pauses before entering. When I get to him he looks down at me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqXJfQWznL
"I think you should go in without me." He says and my eyes widen slightly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzczj1oXy8
"Why? I wouldn't know what to say."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ791mjmBAOI
He shakes his head. "You'll be leading everyone one day Leon, you need to get yourself prepared for that."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPU1Kgvpwn
"You'll do great, I believe in you." He says and I nod at that, taking a deep breath before entering the tent.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweqEeQ63cq
I expected like animal furs and stuff but it wasn't like that, it almost looked like what you would expect to find in Tinkerbells home, a lot of hand made, plant-based tools and equipment.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhqQVJPSoh
At the other side of the tent were a few older people sat in a circle, who all looked up to see who entered.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDInr39MLnN
"Uh sorry to bother you all, but I'm the representetive from C.A.A, I came in to speak to the town elder." I say, meekily to be honest.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMKpj8S5BF
A woman, at what seems to be at the end of the circle raised a hand and closed her eyes.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhTvYx82af
"Come sit, young Caeles." She says, her voice smooth but a bit jagged with age, it was nice to hear.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcXYWQQuFV
I nod and walk over, they make room for me in the circle and I sit down and by the way they all stare at me, I feel a little on the spot so I start to play with the hem of my shirt. It was also painfully obvious that I was glowing right now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoNqvqbUpJ
"It must be hard, being the Child of Sun." The lady at the head said, I look up.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6C2fvS724
"How...how, did you know?" I ask back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EHTwnRP67
They share a small chortle, one of the elders speak up, a man with dark skin and bright blue eyes. "Sie'Ra is a Seer, blessed with the vision Aethra. She sees past illusions and lies, what we tell ourselves and those we tell others."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZoJ1WL6Il
"I always knew I'd meet Jilar Grufaas, but I never knew you'd be a child." She says, and it sounded like she was more worried than anything else.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkP7XhfvW9
"I know, I'm a lot less than what people expect of me but-"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04PqLUhv23
"No child, you are exactly as you are. I see the courage of a mighty lion through those eyes, and my eyes see past all." She says, the golden bangles on her arm clinking and clanking as she speaks.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv2B3debdQ
I feel myself deflate slightly because that is not how I've been feeling at all, but I just take a deep breath.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0CDHnTwjB
"Could you tell how and when you're village was attacked?" I ask.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8sn91V72C
The mood seems to visibly dampen.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCTyR3hHNg
Sie'Ra speaks, though her face somber and the wrinkles on her sin look as if they were turned downwards.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlax8iANHzi
"Come forward, young Caeles." She says, I nod and get up, walking tentavily through the cirlce. Once I'm in the front of her, I kneel infront her. She takes my hands, hers shaking slightly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DOGh0oXLy
"Look into my eyes child." She says and I do.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmdNtHfKDe
Right then, my eye sight is engulfed by an erray of color and light. It bustled and swarmed until it finally dissapated.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsYAYqTtpY
It took a moment for my eyes to adjust but the first thing my senses caught onto was the sound of laughter. Children's gleeful laughter rung through my ears.The second was the smells, I couldn't quite pin what exactly the smell was but it smelt like a mix of popcorn and candyfloss with...peppermint? I had no idea but it smelt really good. When my eyes finally adjusted I was struck by the bright cinery in front of me. It was a village, clusters of houses built into huge trees with leaves of different colors and not just the typical, boring green leaved trees. The streets were lined with red banners with a yellow sun symbol in the center as children, families headed towards the center where there was a large pyre, almost like the one we had for our Summer Solsctice festival.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu5cSYFxE9
"Our village had a long history, being founded by the great Elves that fought in the Second Fall for our independance, we had a number of celebrations. But out of all of them, we prized the Summer Solscitse far more than the others." Sie'Ra spoke from next to me. Her eyes on the view in front of us, there was a slight echo to her voice so I knew she was in my head, or I was in hers.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN0hdmHEuL
"Why'd you like the Summer Solsctice more than the others?" I ask, and it was super cool that my voice had the same echo to it. Focus.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsKgTAs86x
She turns to look at me, a small grin on her lips. "Because of you of course." She says which stunned me for a second. "We, like most in this realm, devoted this great holiday to the Child of Sun. Ever since La'Tio went out, we knew you had incarnated." She says.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndcSKv6N6u
"Whats La'Tio?" I decide to ask.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwWOECuxR0
"La'Tio was the manifestation of Essence in a celestial body. So as we see the sun, La'Tio was like that too, but far larger and far more beautiful. In the myths, La'Tio would 'die' to be reborn as a life force. And about fifty years ago, it died. And that's when Ka'Tena, your star, fell and you were incarnated a little while after." She explains.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMBLL97kNW
I nod slowly. "Okay...so, with this all in context,why was your village destroyed?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJL56lVDbK
"It is believed that worship towards you, would make you stronger. And it was out-lawed."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvefXC9Onk
"So Nepheros destroyed your village because you...worshipped me?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxt09xcI5B
She shakes her head. "Not Nepheros child, another foe we share."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgCG2SNC41
Then it clicked.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfybo6YsYE3
"Vel'Shamar." I say with dread and she nods solemnly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nzzoKkRRu
Then this beautiful daydream turned into something straight out of my nightmares.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSR1OmuDXM
The same cloaked and masked terrors that surrounded me just the other day, started to pour out from every direction of the surroundings woods. The loud screams of children began to fill my ears as I saw women and men try to bravely protect their young from the threat that seemed to feast on the sound of their distress.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBFLNeJ0xI
Their crooked weapens found almost every single person it intended on harming. But it wasn't just the decesead who's lives had been taken; it was the people who still lived whos souls were ripped out watching such grusome, unrelenting and wicked things happen to their loved ones. It was horrifying thinking about it as I watched it happen, someones worst nightmare just happened right in front of their eyes, the blood, the screams, the terror.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9K0U33j4L
What I saw after does not need to be relived. But all I could do was watch as many who left their homes that day did not go back. Houses and buildings destroyed and raided, children and women abducted, familes torn apart. Blood filling those once peaceful streets, now in utter ruin.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG42X5z5fzP
When I snapped out of it, by a strong hand to my shoulder. My hands were shaking uncontrolably and I felt water prickling at my eyes.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M6bEDFNKU
All that happened because they were worshipping me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjhTz41xKR
Fuck.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKHijfB2su
"Leon, snap out of it. You're back." I hear Michael say, his hands on my shoulders and he was kneeling in front of me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt93jNl4yQr
It takes me a moment to realize that I'm actually in circle of elders and not actaully at the sight of a terrorist attack, but fucking hell my heart is broken.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGos2xdpDnd
I look to meet Michael's eyes, which are looking down at me in worry, his hands still on my shoulders. I quickly wipe my eyes with my still incredibly shaky hands.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrOMpbVwld
"I'm really sorry I caused so much loss." I say softly,my eyes darting to the ground.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GwAWyYsFi
"Me showing you what happened to us was never used in the intention of hurting you, young Caeles. This was simply fate, but you are not tied to fate. You exist between the lines thats breathes life into our stories. Knowing you're in our realm now is the biggest symbol of hope that outtrumps any loss." She offers and I nod, wiping under my eyes.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyjujtzGTq
"You being here is all the hope we need to perservier through such hardships." Another elder offers and I look up.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRl9NN7hWnO
"Is there anyway I can help before we start towards the refugee camp?" I ask them.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWhW60bnQd
Sie'Ra speaks up. "From your glow I can see you possess healing abilities. Many were injured the day of the attack, mostly children." She says and I begin to get up.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvcCbrmwIb
"I can help."
and then Add to home screen.
