I am Anahita, the young mistress of our clan. The Kalta clan.
According to our legends, we come from an ancient civilization, the Ketvihims, who were the first inhabitants of our continent, Stonhmir.
The Ketvihims were the protectors of the forest...
I started to climb the stairs, still hearing everyone sing behind me, as if to tell me I wasn't alone. It gave me more confidence to walk faster, with a determined mind.
I could see in front of me, the stairs, as well as the path that would lead me towards the shrine.
'The twins didn't lie about it; I wouldn't be surprised to see a spirit here; it looks so beautiful.' I looked around me still walking.
'I never saw nature looking so alive before; the trees and bushes are a deep, vibrant green and the light seems so caring and warm.'
I was so engrossed with what was around me that I failed to notice I had already arrived at the lake surrounding Earthia's shrine.
As soon as I felt a strong aura before me, I snapped from the stupor I was in and looked in front of me with a serious look on my face. I then noticed how close to the lake I was and took a step back, quite panicked.

'Whoa! That was close! I should be more careful. One more step, and I was done for.'
'Who knows what there is inside...'
I looked around the lake, hopping to find a way to cross it. 'Here !!' I saw some stones outside the water, creating a path leading to the shrine, so I started to make my way over it while holding my dress.
I was halfway there when I heard a sound. As if something had emerged from the water behind me. I turned around swiftly and tried to find what made that sound, but I couldn't see anything.
'Okay, that is weird.' I looked around some more before giving up, I turned around to continue moving towards the large building in front of me, where the strong aura came from.
As soon as I arrived, I started to make my way inside it while keeping my guards up, with a hand over the weapon hidden in a secret pocket I had the seamstresses make inside my dress in case something happened.
'Okay, the sooner I write my name, the sooner I can go back home.'
I hurriedly made my way over the stone lectern, where I could see the book sitting there patiently waiting for me to come over it.
