Ch 65: The Start Of A Rage

Y/N

What are these voices?

My ears were catching soft mutters going on around me, but at the same time, a loud beep was stinging in my head. As I struggled to open my eyes, I felt my body slowly slumping.

''Nue!'' That was when I fully became awake, opening my eyes in a hurry. A lot of question marks went through my mind. 

Where am I? What happened? 

When trying to recall what happened before, nothing came to me...

What was I doing?

I was standing....in the middle of a village, it seemed. Not too long ago a little girl ran past me calling out Nue her name. Right now I was looking at a beautiful girl dressed in a long beige dress, flowers in her braided long hair, while she was holding the child in her arms. 

''The shaman is calling for you.'' Why am I here? Why am I seeing this? 

Perhaps I'm somehow inside her memories...

The both of them walked past me heading to another side of the village, at that moment the area around me started to change. The empty space I was standing in suddenly got crowded. As slow ink spatters people started to appear around me, a fire ignited from out the ground in front of me. Suddenly Nue was standing next to me, the little child from just now seated between the crowd. It was like everyone was paying attention to her. 

Heavy breathing came from the other side of me and as I turned my head, I felt stunned. It was a woman laying on the ground, sprawled out onto a bed of straw and woven fabric. She was old, I would have guessed around 80. She was laying on her back, breathing harshly as if trying to squeeze out every last bit of air she had left there. 

She is going to die...

''Grant me treise y deith.'' It was Nue whispering from beside me. 

(Grand me the power of the flame)

Her mother tongue...

Slowly the other villagers started to say the same thing, repeating after her, while their eyes looked at the old woman who slowly started to open her eyes.

Nue slowly stepped forward crouching next to the woman her body. Her eyes hinted a deep blue while she placed her hand on top of the woman her chest. 

''Goddess y holl flames, creator y life an marw. Grant me treise aep heal het saov, heal het saov. Mind an body shall ess whole.''  

(Goddess of all flames, creator of life and death. Grant me the power to Heal this spirit, heal this soul. Mind and body shall be whole)

I couldn't help but stay stunned looking at the scene in front of me. From her hand ignited blue flames, they consumed the body in front of her. Yet the woman didn't let out a single scream, nor a single struggle. It actually seemed like....she was feeling at peace. 

The flames aren't burning her.....

Seconds went by and the flames died down, the woman was now fully awake. It seemed as if she had no trouble breathing anymore while a smile appeared on her face. 

''Thank taedh me wedd.'' Her hand reached for Nue her face slowly cupping it. 

(Thank you, my child)

And just like that everyone suddenly started to fade away. Red flames began erupting from the ground, their homes on fire, people on fire. Screams were surrounding me as I struggled to search for Nue.
