Persephone's pov
______________________________________

As Persephone looked at the rain she couldn't help but think about what awaits them in Eye of Eden

Seeing how the elders weren't in their temples it was most likely that they were in Eye of Eden, slowly withering to the corruption

Persephone remembered how it affected Callisto. It made him go from a normal skykid to some sort of rabid animal 
The elders were very strong so if they were that out of control then Persephone doubted that she and her friends would come out alive; they were basically crabs to the slaughter
Maybe their chance of survival would increase if she thought of a plan for each elder they would encounter
Her biggest worries were: Samehk, both twins often had synchronized and athletic movements, outrunning them would be a nightmare
Tsadi, the golden wasteland elder is strong enough to fight krills single handedly
Teth, the elder of hidden forest
She could literally summon her huge hammer whenever she wanted to
Outrunning her would also be a nightmare
"What am I thinking, I have to worry about all of them" Persephone said a little louder than she meant it to be
"Um Seph, are you okay?" Ari said concerned for her friend, beside Ari was haru who looked even more sad the awhile ago and Parheila who has been quiet for awhile
Persephone blushed with embarrassment "I..I need some time to think" " is it fine if I go out for a while? A little stroll with nature helps calm me down"Persephone continued
Ari smiled "sure, don't see why not just don't come back late or I'm launching you to a catapult all the way to isle of dawn"
Persephone smiled back and left

Persephone eventually found a cave that was cleared of crabs to stay in and opened her new bag
Inside was the light orbs and her bright blue panflute, she picked it up and started playing it
"Didn't know you played instruments"
She turned around to see a certain spirit with long hair
Persephone immediately yanked her panflute back inside "Agatha? What are you doing here"
Persephone expected Agatha to smile gently at her, that's what Agatha usually did during the first time they met but her face was rather urgent
"I've come with a grave warning Persephone" Agatha said, her tone serious "you shouldn't waste your time, the fate of seven realms of sky depend on you and your friends"
Persephone muttered "gee,tell me something I don't know yet" fortunately Agatha didn't seem to hear her "once the kingdom of sky is completely swallowed by darkness
The lands will fall"
Persephone looked at Agatha "when you say "fall" do you mean metaphorically or literally?"
"Quite literally"
"Ah" Persephone said
"Your taking this in an awfully calm manner" Agatha said with an raised eyebrow which was hard to see considering that she's see-through
"Oh no, I'm not, I'm just trying to hold myself together" Persephone said, as she spoke her mind was in shambles
She was getting so many mixed emotions and thoughts that she couldn't understand herself anymore
Just give up,it's hopeless said doubtful Persephone
But then we would let thousands of skykids die in our hands! Said stubborn Persephone
Honestly, I don't know anymore Said confused Persephone
Then Persephone noticed she was alone
"Agatha?"
Agatha suddenly appeared again but her form was flickering  "the light,I'm running out of light soon their won't be enough for me to form at all" Agatha said, she sounded like she was underwater
"That looks.. painful" Persephone winced "don't fret, It's been a long time since I last felt physical pain"
Agatha continued Persephone could barely understand her voice due to how muffled it is "now Persephone please make haste, carry the orbs to eye of eden , tell your frie-"
Agatha disappeared intro blue mist

Persephone walked back to camp, dread and worry filled her
"Ugh finally what took you so long" Ari said Persephone looked at her friends eyes
"I have something to tell you"
