41 "The Lost Orb (Desire)"

⚜⚜⚜

THEY, who bestowed grace upon THEIR creation, within THEIR possession.

Embracing a dear one, yet with eyes of deception.

A soul who seeks greatness.

Whither demise waiting for the great one.

Desire.

Desires have embodied her.

Over the long course of time, the desire inflicted upon her by an anonymous being grew even greedier. This is all because of that damn request of hers that she's falling deeper into the very trap she set for her creator. All she could do now was to succumb to her own temptation.

This uncontrollable desire to consume.

To become THEM.

But she's aware of the consequences of her own desideratum. And now, that outsider's otherworldly ability who's responsible for her crumbling senses is taking effect, it's only a matter of time before she's completely gone to her senses.

Why must she acknowledge that desire? That led to this? No, she's not regretting anything.

Hinayaan niyang pangunahan siya ng mga yapak niya sa kahabaan ng corridor. She could see the uneven whirlpools of night clouds from the open-air colonnade beside her. Nanginginig ang mga kamay nito buhat ng matinding emosyon na pumipiga sa dibdib niya. It's not sorrow, nor misery, but it is indeed consuming.

She gripped the white fabric on her chest with her one hand to ease the suffocating emotions, not even letting her rest. She guided her trembling knees to the place where her final decision falls, to perform what needs to be done.

This madness is gradually taking root in her depths, and she had to do something to uphold, and retain her sanity.

She needs to do it now.

She found herself advancing toward the chamber that was considered forbidden for someone like her. It's definitely that room.

"My, you seek my presence?" The Bearer scrutinized. The pain in Discoria's face sank as she entered the chamber, erasing any amount of anxiety in her, in fact she's just enduring the excruciating pain inside her.

Her hands fell softly behind her.

Naging kalmado na ang ekspresyon niya nang mapansin ang kakaibang tingin na nakalapat sa direksyon niya. After debating with herself whether to go through with her plan or wait a few more years, she decided to move her feet ahead of her.
