1 Where it all began 1 (1/2)
People running everywhere, trying to hide, struggling to survive.. The chaos..
What seems to be Knights, no dark mages or a combination of both... Killing...
Babies, children, mothers, fathers.. Innocents all fall by the sword... The delight in the eyes of their killer as they take each life one after another.... with no remorse.
There are those who try to fight back, but they can't last long under the powers of dark magic... People screaming, anguish everywhere...
”It's like hell has let loose on us, brother I can't hold on much longer” said a girl in her early twenties, a mage to a boy of the same age group standing by her side.
”You have got to hold on.. Do not die on me” the boy said. ”We would make it, help would come Sylvia”
”I can't anymore, I am sorry for being this weak brother”
They kept on fighting the dark Knights, the girl conjures vines from the ground to attack the knights and the boy creates a barrier to protect the other villagers. Two knights kept on hitting on the barrier the boy had put up.
The girl uses her vines to pierce the chest of the two dark Knights.
”Brother are you okay?”
”I can hold it for a little while longer.”
”We've lost many, we would fall soon. There is no other way”
”Sylvia no, we can still fight. Don't do this.”
”Brother, you know its the only way.. If not all these sacrifices would be for naught.”
The boy make gestures with his left hand and snaps the neck of three knights coming close to his sister.
”Please, Sylvia don't, it would kill you”
”I'm sorry brother. Goodbye”
She moves forward, using the vines to kill some knights close to her and starts muttering some words.
”Vetkeni triveankin centu va nie letusumi netweniaakarr.. ”
Soon fire comes out from her finger tips and burns a wide range of dark knights and she falls down. Her brother stops his magic and the barrier disappears, he runs to meet his sister on the ground.
”Sylvia, please open your eyes, don't die on me”
She coughs and opens her eyes wearyingly
”Live on James, take them and run. Survive no matter what, I have slowed them down, but more would soon come. Go, I love you.”
Her hand holding his shoulder drops and she dies, he screams...
She opens her eyes while screaming. Looks around and the door to her room opens, with a lady in her forties running in and enters her bed, she hugs her close.
”It's okay dear, you are safe now. It was just a dream” said Elizabeth as she holds the girl close to her chest.
”Mum.. It was scary..” she sobs and holds her mum tighter.
”Its all okay... I am here now Isabel. I won't let anything happen to you.”..
The next morning Isabel talks to her parents over breakfast in the dinning room.
”Isabel dear, you are saying your dreams are progressing?” Asked the man in his forties.
He was wearing a top and a trouser and eating his breakfast of toasted bread and egg with milk.
