Already another vision.
I saw King and the Collector Sitting on the Dinning room couch.
"King, are the others coming?" Asked The Collector.
"I'm not sure, they haven't uh..been here. You ok?" He asked.
"Yeah Yeah..It's just.."
The flashes flashed to The stars. I was terrified when I saw many star people.
Yet on the street people be seemed to loose their minds.
"What the heck is this?"
"The Archivist can't find out..."
"What's? what's happening?"
"A portal to the human realm opened..We..No we haven't had such a portal in for Centuries ."
I switched back to King.
"Ever been to the human realm?" Asked The Collector.
"Uh..No, Not really, only ever did it with Eda but she likes going alone by herself mostly, why?"
"Luz told me about a friend Delilah."
King nearly flipped off the Couch.
"What?!"
"I'm sorry King. But she did. I don't know what's happening"
"What - oh no-"
"King I been getting these Nightmares all the sudden."
"Of the Archivist?"
Collector shakes his head, "No. A man told me he knows Typhras"
"You're kidding right? No no! Delilah Fough Typhras There couldn't be anyway.-"
"He gave me the number 3 and said Day of Carnivean"
"What? Who the Heck-" King went dark.
"Who the heck has told you that?" He asked.
"I I dont know!
"Aw Collector-"
"It's ok King. Don't be scared. I'm fine" He sighed. "I Just..I Just You know..I just need more water. I won't take a nap but you know. I'll promise.."
King brought over another one of his stuffed animals on the couch.
"I'll be fine. I promise I'll tell Eda," the Collector tells him. Then it ended. I didn't know how to feel about that. I didn't know how to decipher that. The poor Collector, the Star people were really being affected..and I know the collector promised he would try to grow. Take this maturely. Even if he doesn't know what's happening entirely..Yet I still heard the wary of his voice..reasonable for a kid.
I'm what only 16, 17? Even I don't know how to feel anymore. I don't know if this is a good idea..
I got myself back to the present moment.
I had to find another place where I can find Answers.
I made myself go through the trees. At first it failed but then It worked.
"Something seems.." I was about to say. As I realized I was walking in a desert place. I had a flash back. This place is called the Land Of Canaan.
"It's-"
"It's too easy" I heard a man's voice.
I turn and wish I wasn't so scared to see this man.
"Be not afraid. For I am Gabriel" he tells me.
"You! You know Delilah"
"Eh" He Shrugged, "Could Say"
"Uh I'm Hunter"
"Oh I know. Wittebane." He eyed me like he was trying to confirm it was me.
"What are you doing here alone?" He asked me.
"I- I- Told My friends I do this alone"
"Hmm. Ok. For what reason?"
He knew my name but I guess I had to explain it to him.
"I'm not sure. If you can manage - That-"
"Yes I know. I know it'll burn my soul"
"Probably even worse because you know.."
I was first confused but then I thought. Oh shoot, I'm made from Palisman wood. Wood.
"Oh- OH NO-"
"Relax, here-" He handed me Oil.
"Oil of Raphael. Can heal very harsh burns or injuries. Place some on your head. Perhaps it will help."
"Oh. Uh ok. Thanks" I nod. Taking the small container.
"Remember Hunter. You'll speak the prophecy, if you don't know. Ask someone who probably will."
"Yeah..uh say, do you know what Three and the day of Carnivan mean?"
Gabriel's eyes widen,
"3 is oftenly and important number. What significance it had I am not sure. As for Day of Carnivan. Carnivan isn't a day, rather a demon that is summoned during witch sabbaths."
Oh shoot, I thought. Whoever sent that message to the Collector ..They were clever.
"Oh my.." I whispered, "Ok I'm doing this."
"Alright. I have my own duties to attend to with the others. Stay in full pieces" He tells me. Then Disappeared.
I saw the digged out area. I crawled myself slowly into it. Not realizing the deadly feeling of envy creeping up on me like it wants to snatch me whole. I wanted to scream as I thought about my competitive past during the time I was in the emperor's coven..So much envy and bitterness of others, it hurt. It hurt that I used to be like that. I had to keep going, remind myself I am not the same person I was back then.
I found the demon. Reached in its terrying headless mouth with sharp teeth's for grab its lava. It's fire.
But I forgot one thing.
"AHH AHH" I didn't put the oil first. I was burning, so I  quickly put the oil on my head and Hand..It stopped burning. I breathed.  The lava was easy to pick up, and so I did.
I placed it on my forehead,
"Give me the Prophecy..Of Ene-
I felt it tug on my head. I began to scream..but then I didn't. I only whispered in Latin. "Tres Nonas Carnivan tribus diebus Carnivan"
And then I spoke something more.
"A man who never died, Angels falling from the sky. Name with the One who hunted. Realm of the Witches must come to fruition. He is the one who repented. She will rip him to pieces, choose to go by, must abide."
I screeched.
And passed out.
My eyes break open. The sand in my mouth..I spat it out. Just to see the words carved to stone next to me..
