Hey guys! As i promised to a lovely lady, here is an update. And thank you soooooo much for your comments and votes! Every time someone writes me, i make a little happydance ;-) The people at my workplace gave me strange looks XD

Anyway...i had trouble writing the prophecy of this chapter because i cant ryhme so good in english. If any of you have better ideas please feel free to write me. I just have one request. The meaning must be the same. Thats all ^^

Picture on the side Father Marno (Jeff Bridges, just imagine him bald) ---------->

Edwards POV

>> What prophecy? << I wonder what the old guy wants from me, what should an ancient prophecy in some drugged old box have to do with the current situation? But of course I don't speak that out loud, because I know how the priest of the air god Ammon would react to this "diatribe".

I shudder at the thought of the one time as he was mad at me. For a week, I could not leave my room! And two weeks I wasn't able to approach any female beings ... Never again. >> I'm talking about the prediction of the wise woman Imoneth. << I remember the dull times at school that we used to have to memorize the script, but the few scraps I remember made no sense. >> I know the texts no longer Marno. << He shakes his head and mutters something along the lines >> The youth of today have no more respect ... poor Imoneth ... << He sighs again and begins with a singsong

>> The gloom begins in the north,
but soon they come in hordes.

If they invade Trauheim using the night as a hood,
the earth will be soaked with blood.

Only fire, earth, water and air together,
the darkness they can scatter.

The One who finds the four,
the darkness cannot touch her core.

But she has to make a sacrifice,
or the evil will destroy us all.

All will stand in flames,
everything in evil names.

Certain doom we can't fight,
never again will we see the morning light. <<

Icy showers rain down my back. Bleach in the face I look at him with wide eyes. >> Do you think what I think you think?<< >> By Ammons name! Boy Express yourself clearly, but yes I think so. The Prince will announce the coming war with Lavandia today. It is only a matter of time until they come, raid Trauheim and the prophecy has its beginning. The question we must ask ourselves is, who is "the one" is. I am afraid without her we are doomed. <<

I swallow audibly and try to digest the things I just learned. >> But how do we find her? From the prophecy only emerges that it must be a woman. But that makes up half of Grandtor! Are there any hints? << The old priest smiles benevolently. >> Now you ask the right questions boy. From the lore, Imoneth could take a quick look at the woman, but the picture was not entirely clear. She could only see one thing clearly ... << eagerly I lean more to him in order not to miss a word. >> Well, tell me and do not continue to torture me! <<

Mischievously he grins and says at last >> She has a birthmark in the shape of a five pointed star on the right side of her chest. On the level where the heart lies. << Thoughtful I scratch my chin. Somehow I find that familiar, but I just can't remember. I have seen something like this somewhere before. But I can not remember on whom. Frustrated I drive a hand through my black curls.

>> What is it Edward? << >> I have ever seen such a sign on the chest of a woman, but I do not remember whom it was! << Priests Marno looks at me thoughtfully. >> Maybe it's better for the time being not to think so much about it. At some point it will come to you. In the meantime, can you tell me a little bit about your lovely Amazone? <<
