61: In the garden

M:

"I don't really care," Eclipse said, lying down in a sunny spot and spreading out his wings like nothing happened, "I personally don't mind staying here, I like how peaceful it is."

Poldara chuckled at Eclipse's normalcy, he was weird at the best of times. The special entity walked up to the others and said, "actually, there is one place I want to take you guys, it's a very special place to me and my family and we don't normally let people go there unless they are very trusted friends, which I think you all have more than earned that honor, right Eclipse?"

"Right," he agreed, already knowing what Poldara was talking about, "we should grab Luz too, and MC's already been there but he can crash the party too."

Poldara chuckled again, then whispered the coordinates to Kiara, the coordinates for Mandoria's memorial garden, he didn't tell her that though because he wanted it to be a surprise.

C:

Kiara raised her brows at both countries, she could have easily guessed by reading their minds yet decided to not spoil the fun and let the mystery hover.

-"No need," She answered Eclipse's previous statement and noted the coordinates. "He and Luz will join us there, either by foot or teleportation."

Luz being also a mind reader was already aware of wherever they intended to go.

The angelic entity strolled over to the wall of soil which delimitated the sinkhole's crater. Placing her open halls on the surface, she focused her energy to generate a rustic portal door with a silvery tinted handle.

Then Kiara turned her head and called out to everyone, telling them to hurry.

Chandeler had skipped over to Poldara and had already reached the teleportation device, but Cherry was still there by the lake's shores, crouching down and fiddling with a stick in the mud.

-"Ah those children, you get your eye off them for barely a second and they are already gone doing mischief." Kiara quietly sighed.

She shook her head and walked back to get the child since it wouldn't budge as she called after it again.

-"Kid, sitting here won't make him come back any faster, you know. " she intoned, placing a hand on her hip. "Come on, let's go. "

Cherry, who had zoned out, looked up from her work, Kiara was holding out her hand, eyebrows raised, eye glimmering with expectation.

-"Okay." She blurted. The woman helped her to stand and dusted the teen to make it look presentable.

Cherry erased with her shoe the drawings and scribbles she made, and then followed the older entity to the portal, looking back one last time to see the peaceful scenery which, before, she could only picture in a dream.

M:

Poldara smiled and put a hand around her shoulders, "he'll come back soon, have faith, but for now there is someplace I want to show you."

Poldara led Cherry into the portal, Eclipse entering behind them, and when they came out they were standing in the middle of a beautiful garden. Cherry blossom trees, flowers, and shrubs decorated the large clearing in the forested park, ponds with fish and streams flowing from them gave it a Japanese atmosphere, but the main attraction was a building in the middle.

Unlike the rest of the garden, the little shrine resembled medieval European architecture, with the statues of Ora and Empyr guarding the entrance, just beyond them were stairs that dug deep into the earth.

"Everyone, welcome to the memorial garden of Mandoria," Poldara announced, "this is where Grandfather fought Prussia, where he was slain, and eventually where he was buried by the winged countries of his time. Inside the shrine is the entrance to his burial chamber."
