The door to Jaidylen (Eng. Version)

chapter 21.

The morning star of the Jade GroundAmari's view

I tied my shoulder bag closed, I attached the bow to a protruding strap and once again I tied my hair into a low ponytail. I looked anxiously at my ring.

We will now travel to one of the coldest regions in all of Jaidylen to meet a fortune teller. According to Fayón, she has information about Arkomak and was friends with him 155 years ago in Hiândin.

We still don't know what Arkomak is and what he wants, in my opinion he has a more complex desire than to overthrow the entire Jaidkind. I've never interacted with him the way Sully or Zoe have, so I don't know what makes him tick when he's alone with someone.

But from the stories and my first "meeting", I know he's not to be messed with, he's extremely impulsive, prideful and uses the Jaidyliners around him. But I think he's more than that. It's strange that I want to find out, I don't really care about him and he deserves to be badmouthed.

I also have the feeling that he doesn't give much away. Our solutions to the questions we had yesterday were plausible, but I don't think they all add up. I think we just have to get on with our goal, but that's what he wants. He knows exactly what we will and must do.

I don't know how we can trick him.

Light snoring came from the other side and I had to smile, Zoe really is a late sleeper!

Menko stretched and purred at Zoe, who rolled to the side and grumbled sleepily at her."Mhman... Menko! Let me sleep... Ahh!" A thud sounded on the floor and Zoe sighed. "That's a really rude way to get up!!! Amari... When do we have to leave?"

"Now, it's probably going to be a long walk to Fricorìn Court..." I closed the doors of the dresser and looked over at her, tiredly she rubbed her eyes and looked around.

"Oh man, who left all this stuff lying around?"

"You yourself?" Menko meowed questioningly, Zoe scratched her head in surprise but snapped her fingers suddenly.

"That's right, it was me! Wait, I'll be done very quickly!"

I traced a rune on my upper arm and on my fingers, the clothes, the longsword and the crystal flew up and a white sheet of Norion let them slide into the backpack. Zoe's eyes sparkled and she squealed loudly.

" Wow, that was awesome!" She came closer to me and I had to scratch the back of my head in embarrassment.

"Oh, that was just a little Aero Norion spell! Nothing major..."

"But yes, it looked just like in the old Disney movies!" She shouldered her backpack and put on her coat, she looked like a teddy bear! With a tap on her shoulder, she told Menko to jump up, which she did and I took a look at my coat.

It gave me a feeling of home, we Sórens all have a fashion designer, who has designed and made our clothes for countless years, they were known by their slightly severe cuts and accents of gold or black.

I liked him, whenever my mother delivered preferences for my clothes to him, he would fly an owl to me that took my own wishes. Mother was never thrilled if the clothes didn't look Sórens appropriate and chic, but I always loved them. And when I see this coat now, I get a little homesick.

Aeros has always had its black corners, it wasn't as glamorous as Aquatas or as diverse as Gronko or as full of life as Terran, but it was unique in its own way. The black swamps and dark forests have something mysterious about them and the towns and villages are cozy and have their own flair. The hurricanes have become a big trademark and can only be tamed if you have a bell with you.
