So the treaty went on as planned. It was finally signed and the ear stopped. Both countries will finally start to gain peace.

Nana drank tea in happiness in a cafe that was tucked in the small corner of an alley. It wasn't well known but she loved the varieties of tea they had.

Then Edness came into the cafe with her big bags of shopping and sat down " I don't even understand. Why did you let him live ? "

Joy had joined the conversation as he brought the plate of brownies over " because it's never bad for the country to have another power of military."

Edness : and you said you wanted to take him down.

Joy ;  with the three old fogeys killed and half of the family killed . The Saluvor is no longer the Saluvor of the past. He not only won't have grip anywhere in the government . The family will have to rebuild. The Saluvor now is merely just a soldier for the government.

Nana : hehe. My son is so smart. What do you want to be when you grow up ?

Joy shrugged " never thought about it. "

Edness sighed " I so hated his wife. So arrogant. Should have just killed while you had the chance to."

Nana giggled " sorry. Didn't know you had a murder streak in you."

Edness : hmph !

Joy : but... Killing so many people that night. You aren't afraid their children will come after you ?

Nana ; I'll be fine.

Edness : you will take me off the seat like you agreed right ?

Nana : yes yes. The term is ending anyway. You can just quit gracefully

Edness : 2 more months. I want quit now.

Nana : so picky. Ok

Edness looks at her watch " alright. Tea break over. All because of you I'm stuck to this dumb schedule. Hmph ! I want to quit ! " And Edness left. "

Joy ; me too.

Nana : ok. Have fun !

Joy nods and left.

Nana sips her tea in peace. She takes a bite of her cake. She drinks another sup and sighed in relax.

Then... Someone stood in front of  her " hi. "

Nana : yes ?

" I'm serene. Neva sees me. As a seer."

Nana ; .... Hi ?

Serene takes a seat and looks right into Nana's eyes. She gets flashes of memories and flashes of visions.

I always get to see what I want to see or what I need to see.

What... She's a ...

Nana : so... What does it say ?

Serene: you're... You're a very amazing... (god)

god. I can't say that word. It's like my brain is thinking it but the word won't comes out.

Serene: Very amazing (god)

There is it. I'm not allowed to tell her ? The gods don't allow it ?

Nana : thank you. But why did you come all the way here just to read me ? Fortune tell me.

Serene: I was being assigned to.

Nana : by Neva ?

Serene : no . Oh nana ... You will be able to get everything you want, one day.

Nana : everything? I already have it I think.

Serene smiled " you'll understand one day. I saw it. You will. I'm not sure how, but you will. "

Nana : ok...

Serene : such a fickle minded personality. But always getting things done. Just like the massacre. You knew it was the only way. Only killing the elders wouldn't be enough to cancel the pressure on General Saluvor

Nana : who said I killed them ? There's no evidence . They merely disappeared overnight

Serene : then I guess they did.

Nana: what do you want from me ?

Serene ; nothing. Just to see into you as I was assigned to.

Nana : who is this someone?

Serene: I have nothing to offer for you to help me.

Nana : you do. You don't tell me, I won't let you leave.

Serene : I see how this works. Alright. I have a little sister. These people have captured her. In return of her coming back safely, I have to tell them what I've seen.

Nana : and these people ?

Serene : they were smart enough to bring middle person who had no connections of knowing who they are. He merely takes in money in exchange for passing messages.

Nana : alright.  Fair enough then.

Serene : so I may leave ?

Nana : you may I guess.

It was definitely a weird day for her. But she could only brush it off as there was nothing much she could do.
