The cursed Angel

Ch. 17 the Oracle

We were clasped in chains ad forced to travel to the east, following the four elves into a veil of energy into a city in the trees, a starcase that travelled up the trees. Following, Rakar began feeling the energy draining from his body as he traveled through the city and up the staircase.

In that moment Rakar though weak from the chains, couldnt help but acknowledge that the architecture was beautiful.

"If I wasnt worried about what was gonna happen to us Id admire this village more" he sighed the treehouses were lookouts for security guards lived in them. "The open trees are houses for the main families, and the guards protect the ground and sky" one of the elves guided us by then we were halfway up the tree when Sareki began to get restless.

"Excuse me but when can we can we be released the bonds are working on us?"

As we stepped up the near ending there was a dark cavern and a wall that separates with the right symbol and property but it was also in that security that there was a row of elves holding swords and spears cleary they werent taking any chances with a Asrai Fae and a Sanguis.

"These are wood elves" She said looking at the symbol on their foreheads and noticing that sh had dark green hair, and green tinted skin and deep blue eyes. She impressed and Rakar blinked.

"Wood elves?" SHe nodded and leaned in. "Forest elves much like wood nymphs we Fae had war with these guys for time immemorial, last I checked they were wiped out it seems they are thriving pretty well" I nodded and waited for something to happen. "What are we waiting on?" Sareki began acting more restless and the leader stepped forward. "We are bringing out the oracle to come speak to you and your....friend" Sareki narrowed her eyes.

"What is your name elf?" SHe hissed and the elf looked sharp back.

"Scylinea, I'm the commander and I have the authority to throw you off the tree or throw you in confinement if you dont simmer" Rakar then pulled her aside, eyes an aqua blew. "Hold off girlie lets find out what this oracle can tell us" with as much enthusiasm as a half dead teenager. She sighed and nodded, scowling. Taking it thatthey were complying, Scylinea walked over to one of the walls and and carved a symbol into the wall and sure enough it made a strange sound, a not carving sounds, but sounds like Chimes that that mmoment the symbol turned red and and split in half and opened and from the inside I heard "Enter..." Scylinea walked over and Rakar and grabbed him and threw him through the doors where he only felt the beads and then crashed face first into the wall and collapsed, unable to move because the shackles were still binding him.

Rakar felt ten times beat up than the time that he was fighting his father, his eyes were covered,a dn his arms was still tied, it was humiliating he was gonna go on a limb and

Say that he made a mistake by underestimating the bad blood of east side vampires of Zk-2 and the west side of the island Inhabitants.

"I cant say I'm not too surprised that this is my punishment"

His entire body felt weak beaten bruised and weak seems to be the theme right now 'Cant get up' he thought trying to move but with his arms tied behind him and unable to see anything he didnt know what else was in the room. By now he had lost feeling in his arms so naturally he decided that passing out why wise but as he started to slip, he felt his armbands cut and he faintly became aware of a girl was talking to him.

"Figures another vampire seems like there's more and more of them lately they seem to be deperate to control us"

That voice caught Rakar offguard.

"Huh whose there? I cant see can you help me?"

FRom in front of her I heard. "Take off the blindfold yourself"

Thats when it occurred to him that she had undone his bands and he removed his blindfold revealing to be a brown room with alot of beads, blankets, a cot furniture and sitting on the bed was a beautiful but middle aged elven princess She wore a white dress, native had long black hair, blue tinted skin and deep white eyes she had no pupils was she blind. She had a symbol of alchemy on her forehead that glowed

"Huh who are you?" Rakar asked her as she was barefoot sitting on the cot.

She walked for the moment that Rakar saw with a graceful step.

"Your going to kill me arent you?"

Rakar asked thinking it was the reason she released him and woke him.

"No, thats not my department I am neither the undertaker nor the executioner I'm the village seer or the shaman of meadowfrost" Rakar blanked and felt his wrists where the bonds left wear marks.

He then walked forward over to her.

""Please remove your boots before stepping into my area"

SHe said, and Rakar looked at his boots before slipping out of them walked into the back room where she was sitting at a table.

"But what I am depends on you" She said sitting at the table and Rakar nodded and sat down across from her.

"So...one of your elves in your community Scylinea said that you would be judging me?" he asked, sitting down next to her on the seat looking at her table that had a cloth over it, as if I did something wrong?" She shuffled something in her hand in front of her and dropped them onto the table,

"Ahh..5 cards lets see..trying to get home...had a great battle but not sure where your decision lies your future....will gather a team of three a decision where your love is tested but the one most important is where your path lies"

She slipped the final card over and spoke. "Ah your name is Rakar your brother is Ravek you killed a young girl and you are running to make amends but theres one doorway and many doors" I blinked, Rakar was his name after all, but where did the cards tell him when he couldnt tell.

"But how do you know so much?" I asked, impressed and looking away because the story was coming forward but so far away. The woman didnt top there she kept drawing as if telling his story. "You are a vampire, but not by choice you were very much telling the truth you want it from your system and...your memory back you have amnesia and" Rakar nodded and looked away, strung. "Its not to much to ask for, I just want to know whats happened and what happened too " THe woman looked at him and sighed. "You see theres more to this story than you may think, I think theres a reason you have amnesia why you have black blood in you and my persepctive is that...reading from the cards you have to walk this distance, in a saying it is the journey that is written not the destination, you cant fast forward your world or else youd clearly miss the reason you gain your memory muscle memory I see and feel is where your world comes in A shadow dark and sinister attacks and you fall from great heights and someone misses you very much, heart broken a girl, a guy a group, its very sad...theres more" He looked into her eyes and then shifted color. "Theres colorless demons following you hunting you, white shadows where do they come in could be based on where you were attacked in your reincarnation? And a vision of a girl that died when she gazed upon you" I sighed and looked at her blinking still holding her hand. "They are reapers deathscythes and deathangels following you to come take you away"

Rakar chalked it up to another group who wanted him dead.

"They are on the move through the forest, on theriway here you must travel leave this place dont bring them here" I got up and immediately began to get ready. "But where do we go?" to the villages in the forest on your way to Zk-2 the world has ways of travelling off this island like you asked, for now you aim is to survive and try to gain your memory follow and someone will choose you the mirror of you A shadow is hovering over you they are sad not evil not mean just sad be it someone you know or someone you dont, and around them are shadows that shift from black to white " I nodded and put on my boots and thats when he started towards the exit because it was about time they headed over, as soon as she exited the opening she rang a bell and Scylinea walked in and looked at us "take them out of our city we need to give them an escort to the road" THey all nodded and before long we were on horses on our way into the forest once more, depending on how things go we can only hop that our guidance i where he will find hid direction.

THE END(for  now...)
