[Thanatos Graveyard]

"And this should be done." Men working in the graveyard finish putting down a tombstone.

"All right men! We can take a break after we finish the burying the other coffin." The graveyard diggers heard something flying above them. They all look at the grey sky that is about to rain and see nothing. They were surprise when they saw a woman who wore a black cloak was behind them.

"You scared me Miss. Are you related to this person?" he ask her trying to take a look at her face but she cover it with her hood. She pay no attention to graveyard digger's question instead she put a flowers on the two grave. Then, it started to rain heavily, the graveyard diggers ran to take shelter from the rain leaving behind their work and the mysterious woman behind.

*whoosh*

A big creature with wings came down and protecting her from getting wet against the rain. She sigh when she open the coffin that haven't bury yet. She then open a bottle of an elixir and pour it all over the dead body.

"It's not time for you to die yet. See you later, sleeping beauty." After that, she throws a flower with a piece of paper tied on it before closing the coffin. As she was leaving, she sees three old women weaving thread beside the graveyard's gate.

"Grandmas it's raining. You're all going to get wet and sick." she says kindly to the three old women and command the big creature to protect them from rain.

"What a kind lady you became in this lifetime." said one of the old woman who is spinning the thread.

"Oh! The light and darkness co-exist inside of you, child. So strong! So divine!" the old woman dress in white is holding her hand while smiling widely.

"Um..."

"Your thread... I can't seem to measure it so I can't set your destiny." she said with such dismay while she squeeze the woman's cheek. The woman wearing black cloak only smile and think that it was just an old people's chatter.

"Do not be disappointed sister as I had already cut her thread a long time ago. That's why we cannot control her fate anymore." said the old woman holding a pair of scissor who's staring closely to her.

"Do you know me grandmas?" she ask that made them look at each other, confuse at the young lady's question.

"Yes, we've known you for such a long time before you were even born." the three of them smile which made her feel somewhat nostalgic talking to them, like she have this kind of conversation a long time ago.

"May I know your names, grandmas?" They introduce themselves. The one who is spinning the thread is Clotho, the one whose dress in white is Lachesis and the one holding a pair of scissors is Atropos. She was going to introduce herself to them but they stop her as they already know.

"To commemorate our meeting, let me tell you words of wisdom. The one close to you must be careful of a fire that will become their demise." Lachesis said to her more like an impending danger. Her words were foreign to the woman but strangely she understand and was going to ask her but she was nudge by the big creature behind her.

"You're right. It's time to head back. Then, grandmas----" She gently pat the big creature but when she look back to bid goodbye to the three old women, they disappear.

"D-d-don't tell me.... g-g-ghost?" She was baffled by their sudden disappearance but shrug it off thinking that she might have been imagining things earlier. She hurriedly hop on the big creature back and left.
