THE OLD WORLD
As Karl, Nelson, Hemdal, Dawson, the soldiers, and the people continued through the old world with the Varlyns and Nylins toward the home the Varlyns had shown them along the way, they couldn't help but stare at their surroundings in amazement.The old world looked like a duplicate of the world they had come from.... The land, the trees, the surroundings, and even the general appearance of the world were all remarkably similar to what they had known.Yet, there was one major difference... The air.The air they breathed in the old world was peaceful. It felt clean and refreshing, unlike the air in the world they had come from, where everything had become toxic, dreadful, and filled with death, sorrow, and pain.Here, there was none of that.Karl, Nelson, Hemdal, Dawson, the soldiers, and the people could see the trees swaying peacefully in the gentle air. The atmosphere itself seemed to carry a sense of calm that they had almost forgotten existed.They also looked toward the sky. It was
THE RETURN OF THE VARLYNS
Very early in the morning, Dawson, Karl, Hemdal, and Nelson were awakened by the Varlyns who had brought them into the city. They had barely woken up before the Varlyns led them away, taking them toward the rivers where they could bathe.The city had two separate rivers, one for men and another for women. Both rivers were located close to the city, surrounded by mountains that rose around them and made the areas feel secluded from the rest of the world.Karl was taken to the river where the Varlyn ladies always bathed, while Dawson, Hemdal, and Nelson were taken to the river reserved for the men.After they had finished bathing, the Varlyns provided them with new clothes and instructed them to change into them.The clothes were clean and fit them well, giving Dawson, Karl, Hemdal, and Nelson an entirely different appearance from the one they had arrived with.Once they had changed, the Varlyns took them into the city so they could see their people and the places where they had been s
REDRICK IS STILL HERE
Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia finally left the river with their belongings still wet after spending some time resting beside the now-frozen river.They traveled far away from the river without uttering a single word to one another. None of them seemed to have the strength or desire to speak. Their bodies still carried the weakness left behind by the days they had spent in the river, and despite their rest, they could feel that they had not fully recovered.Eventually, they decided to stop and rest within the forest.It had been three days since they made camp there, and during those three days, most of what they had done was sleep. They had spread their wet belongings throughout the forest so they could dry, while they themselves remained close by, using the time to recover their strength.However, Esther had not slept nearly as much as the others. She had Redrick to keep her company.It was through the time she spent with
REDRICK'S NEW HOME
Immediately, Esther struck Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia with the magical force.The moment the force passed through them, they all suddenly felt different. Their bodies felt lighter somehow, almost as though something had changed within them.Confused by the strange sensation, they looked down at themselves. What they saw immediately shocked them... They could see through their own skin.Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia stared at their bodies in disbelief, frightened by what they were seeing.“What is happening to us?” they seemed to wonder.They wanted to turn toward Esther and demand an explanation because it was only after she had struck them with the magical force that they had begun feeling strange and different.But before any of them could ask, they heard a voice. It was Redrick's voice.They froze. None of them could understand what they had just heard. How could they possibl
THE COUNCIL OF HOPE
After spending a few days with Redrick, doing nothing more than enjoying themselves and having a good time together while they waited for their belongings to dry, the time finally came for them to continue their journey.Their belongings—including the map, the Dominion book, and Ramsay’s sword—were finally dry.There was no longer any reason for them to remain at Redrick’s home. It was time to leave. They had to return to the land of the living.Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia gathered around Redrick to say their short and temporary goodbyes.It was only temporary because Redrick would be returning with them.But even though he would be going with them, none of them would be able to see him once they returned to the land of the living. Only Esther would still be able to see him.That knowledge made the goodbye more difficult.Camelia, especially, struggled to put her feelings into words. There were not enough words to express how grate
Decision
According to what Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia learn from the Dominion book and the map, it is said that the Michan mountain is the home to savage creatures and a beast. Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia were able to find out about the savage creatures and they are called the Syrics.The Syrics are creatures that have muscular bodies made of pale skin, and their heads are a bit bigger than the size of their bodies. They have curved ears and boggle eyes, but no nose, making them have big mouths with no teeth put fangs. The faces of the Syrics look horrifying, and they have the shape of humans, but they have digitigrade legs.The Syrics' legs have no fingers but claws that are longer, pointy, and can cut deep. The Syric has two arms, but four hands, which means one arm of the Syrics has two hands. The Syrics’ hands have no palms because everything is made up of claws lo
DECISION II
While Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia who were seated inside the cave, argued amongst themselves about whether they should go back home or go through the forest, Esther and Redrick were seated next to each other but a bit away from the others as they watched the others who were currently arguing with each other.The Dominion book remained in the hands of Redrick but he was no longer reading it, as his focus and that of Esther was on the others that were in argument. There was also silence between Esther and Redrick since the only thing they were doing was staring at the others who argued like it wasn't going to end. However, Redrick breaks the silence by saying to Esther "you know you could have stopped this from happening. You could have just said we should return home or go through the mountain, and there won't be a need for this that is happening amongst them. They would have listened to whatever it is that you have decided for th
THE PATH
Before Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia go into the mountain, they make sure that they get the things they will need in the mountain since they know how long it is going to take before they make it out of the mountain. Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia got many things like food, water, and other things. Immediately Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia stepped foot into the mountain, they saw how dark the inside of the mountain was, which made them look around and came to realize that even a ray of light can not penetrate in. However, the shocking thing is the beam of light that lights up a path. Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia knew that the beam of light that lit up the small path was not that of the sun or from the bright sky, which made them wondered where
TRUST
The news that the path has an end which everyone thought came from Redrick gladdens everyone's heart, unknown to them that Esther lied to them. The news not only gladdens their hearts but gives them the energy and courage to continue the journey. Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Ryn, Lilia, Kylie, Kinsley, Mike, Hawk, Tracy, and Camelia all took back their things and continued their journey on the path since it had been confirmed to them that the path had an end and it is not much far, but Esther walked behind everyone.Redrick was shocked when Esther lied to the others, and he wondered why Esther would do that, knowing of the danger that lives in the mountain. It was a sure thing that everyone would die in the mountain if they continued the journey on that same path since the path they were traveling on had no end to it. They can't also trust the path the beam of light lit up, or anything in the mountain since the mountain can be said to be a cursed mountain.Redrick had tried to tal
CURSE OR SPELLED
Everyone wondered if they were now seeing things, but it couldn't be an illusion that they were seeing because they were very sure that they were seeing the runes Esther wrote on the ground behind them. Since they all didn't seem to understand what was going on, they all looked back at Esther who calmly walked past them toward the runes without uttering any word. Everyone watched as Esther touched the runes when Esther got the runes, and then the runes glowed again. They all looked at Esther who said to them that they should walk on the runes and looked at their legs while they walked on the runes.Everyone did as Esther instructed, and they all walked on the runes on the path which made them all see the same thing that shocked them. Everyone walked forward, stepping on the runes, but when they looked at their legs while they stepped on the runes, it looked like their legs moved backward even though they walked forward, which got them anxious as to what was going on.Everyone anxious
