AKINA
~• The Rise Of The Emperal's Daughter •~
( Vanafa's Deal )
Fortunately, just almost at the peck of the mountain there's a stone stair. Walking up step by step I feel an uneasy feeling inside me.
It's getting darker, at this level the mountain was surrounded by clouds. I feel amaze a little bit.
I reach the end of the stair, there is something written on the stone wall.
'Vanafa Lair'
Why would someone put something like that at the front of their house. When it should be welcome visitors? Well, this not a house that someone could just literally visit.....so yeah.
There's a small house made of wood, the inside was lit, that means Vanafa is their. Oh I hope she isn't some kind like a snake monster or something like what she wrote on the stone wall. Lair is not something very likeable.
Should I knock? Or shout, to make her know I'm outside her humble house of magics. My palms are sweaty, now, now. Why am I nervous over this? When I'm only talking to the last witch alive!
God, I calm myself down first and knock.
Silence.
I knock again much louder.
Silence.
You've gotta be kidden me? There's no one inside the ho—!
"Who is it!"
The door suddenly open making me quiet surprised. A very angry'ugly woman was in front of me.
After a couple of seconds, her reaction was change from angry to surprise then relief.
"Akina"
My eyes widen, how on earth does she know me?
"How do you know me?"
"I know everyone"
She motion me to enter her house, I hesitate for a moment. But I enter her house at all. As I was expecting the inside was full of potion, books and some craft thingy. The the very center, a big cauldron was seating there with a green liquid inside and green smoke coming out from it.
"Wait for a moment please, I'm in a very awkward situation right now"
Ugly face ugly voice, nothing to expect. She snap her fingers and a chair was drag and stop beside me. Ok......I–i....its ok, she's a witch. Magic is normal.
"Have a sit"
Instead, I didn't. I don't want to, I don't have time for chitchats. She walks towards the cauldron and put something that obviously I don't know.
"Nemya Fescous"
She spoke and the cauldron spit a very shiny light I quickly cover my eyes. Slowly opening them, the inside is a little bit smoky but some thing are visible.
"This is more like it"
A very beautiful voice spoke. I averted my eyes around, did Vanafa summoned a goddess or something? Instead of a very ugly witch I saw early, this time a very beautiful woman witch a mirror in her hand was in front of me.
What the?
Where?
I look at the back of this person, where the hell is the ugly witch?
"Now, Akina dear. What may I help you?"
"Hold on! Where is the ugl– I mean Vanafa?"
She smirk and the mirror in her hand vanish, as her cauldron turned into a very creepy chair. Blame the thorns.
"I am Vanafa dear, the old hag you saw early was also me but the ugly version"
Well atleast I'm not the only one thinking its ugly. Ok, ok enough with all the magic, I need to get this done.
"I came all the way here to get something and I'm not leaving without it"
"What is it honey?"
"The ancient Kabranan Sword"
After those words leave my mouth she look at me with a very serious look. It feels like, I'd be dead before I knew it.
"You want the sword? Do you mean, the Dytiros was again awaken?"
"You knew about it, you're the one responsible for the potion right?"
I snap at her, but she only laugh hysterically.
"Why did you gave it to King Xhu Ban? You knew it can creat a total disaster!"
A fancy cup appeared at her hand as she take a sip to it.
"I might be responsible for the potion, but I'm not responsible for the chaos that man will make"
I was about to say something, when she continued.
"I knew all along that this well happen Akina, everything. It's written on the prophecy. And I knew you'll be the one saving the world, with this"
A black sword appeared at her front. Its just be the Kabranan sword. No, it is the Kabranan sword.
"Its not"
She said waving her hand at the sword at it vanish like a smoke. Wait, did she hear my mind?
"Well, it is the Kabranan Sword but it's just an illusion"
"Where is the real sword?"
"Hidden"
"Hidden where?"
"Somewhere normal people wont be"
This is driving me crazy, I need to get the sword before tomorrow, or everything I have will be gone forever. I can't risk that.
"Just tell me where is it, I'll get it even what danger I will be faced"
"But you cannot dear, the sword is hidden from the past, where Kysor the maker of the sword are at."
How can I get it? How am I going to save the Kingdom if I don't get the sword?
"But don't worry, I'll be getting it for you"
"You would?"
She would?
"Yes I would, but only you'll give that to me"
She point at my neck, which makes me question for a second but then shock crosses me.
"I womt give you my necklace"
It's the only personal thing that remains from my parents. I can't just gave it away like this.
"You will give it to me"
The tone in her voice shows that whatever I'd do, she still will be getting it from me.
"But I can't Vanafa"
"Give it to me as a payment or die with your beloved Kingdom"
Gasp escaped my mouth, how dare she speak about death.
"Listen Akina, I'm going to get the sword and you'll pay me. Don't worry, service come first to me, so you'll be going to hold on to that necklace for just couple of hours"
I don't want to, I've been living with this all my my side. It's my strength. I sigh. I'm not sure if I'd be able to give this to her but I agree.
"Good, its night, sleep here tonight"
