Born To Die

Curiousity harms the cat

Enir pov

I woke up feeling more excited than ever. Today our nation is gathering in one of the largest coliseums to ever exist at the Valley Of Triumph to celebrate the Season Of Dreams but that is not the reason I'm excited for.

The actual reason I'm thrilled to go to the coliseum is Ilit, a famous skater that will be performing in the ending ceremony today. I've always been dreaming about watching Ilit's famous skate performance. I learned about her famous story of becoming the first female spirit to ever perform at the Coliseum when I was little and I have since admired the amount of dedication and hard work that she put in order to be a good skater.

As I'm done getting ready I greet my family on the dining table and started eating my breakfast." I'm so excited to ride the flying boat!" my little sister Iwir says and I chuckle lightly at her cuteness." then we better hurry up or we'll be late."

After we were done eating we started getting ready to leave the house. It's still early in the morning but since we lived in the prairie peaks it would take us a long time to arrive at the Village Of Dreams.

"Is everyone ready?" my father asked and I suddenly remembered that I left something important and quickly sprinted to my room to get it.I returned with a tiny white box tied with a red ribbon."I want to meet Ilit in person and give her my present." I say showing my parents the handcrafted flower necklace that I made for her.

"That is so beautiful, I'm sure she's gonna love it. " my mother says with a big smile on her face."Thank you mom." And so we begin our journey to the Village Of Dreams.

My mother LOVES to make accessories. I used to watch her made them every day since I can't even remember. My is considered average.my father owned the crystal mine near the Peaks Cave and my mother is a designer for almost all of the capes,outifts and accessories for spirits.

Our world is ruled by five elderly spirits and has been split into five realms, each of those realms is a home to numerous spirits who lived their daily lives with their family and companions for generations. All spirits are free to visit each other and even celebrate multiple occasions together.

Every realm is connected to each other.Well, all except for one place called The Golden Wasteland which is prohibited to enter for everyone especially regular spirits such as myself.

Nobody ever came out of that place alive. Some people say it's because that place is cursed while others say that the spirits who lived there are evil and they will kill anyone who invaded their place with just one spell. Some even says that there is a big treasure of candles in there and it's being guarded by a big scary guardian. That one actually sounds ridiculous to me tho.

Not gonna lie, I'm actually curious as to why that place is so dangerous. It would be my greatest dream is to become an adventurer spirit so I can go to that restricted area and explore to find the actual truth about it.

I also wish I could ask the spirits that lived there but honestly I haven't met any throughout my whole life. I wonder why...

After what feels like forever we arrived at The Hidden Forest and took a break under a shelter to recharge our energy at the forest brook. The sound of rain falling and jellyfish moving combined with the shining lights from the tree bloom created a truly calming and peaceful environment which I really enjoyed.

Iwir on the other hand was playing alone in the rain and almost gets herself shattered. She then got herself a lecture from our parents about the dangers of losing our winglights. Poor kid lol.

Once our energy is replenished, we resume our trip. We got to the Elder Temple and soon after we finally arrived at the Village of Dreams.

"IT'S THE FLYING BOATTT!!!! " my sister yells as she runs toward the boat departure station." Iwir, slow down or you're gonna fall!" I warn her and shake my head. I'm excited too but I played it cool on the outside. I'm already seventeen so Imagine how strange it would look if I started running like a child in front of other spirits. Just imagining it is giving me goosebumps.
