Loral's truth: Amber's mask
By: Rosa Al Borlock
Chapter one: a shattered man sealed by time
Deep in a cave in the heart of the forest. Surrounded by golden waters. As he sat there waiting for something new to come by he wondered. Was that child he met just a dream? Or was there someone who had found a way to visit him?
His dark black scales glistened in the moonlight. The mist surrounding the forest was strongest nearest wherever he went. He knew it was to keep him from finding his way out of this place. The child had given him an interesting name. Loral. He thought at the time. why is she giving him a woman's name?
She had said in response, "I think it fits you perfectly."
I asked, "why? it was for the girl you were helping your friend name."
She told me, "it's spelled like level. Always getting stronger. And laurel wraiths are worn by kings or emperors. I see you as one of those. Like a king that is always getting stronger."
I chuckle at the memory. I let her call me that ever since. Then she added the last name that was odder than that. Apockis Loral. Or in English. Loral Apockis. She said it was her father from her mother's stories of him that gave her that idea. A pocket full of lips. Apocalypse the end times. Before then she had always called me the Destroyer of Worlds. I just met her on one battlefield and that's what she calls me.
Giving a dragon that kind of name. not that she knew I was a dragon back then. The second time I met her. She had found me in my true form. A dragon. And decided to challenge me to a fight. I sighed. She won that fight I wasn't expecting that back then. She was so young. 11 at the oldest. When she challenged me to that fight. I remember laughing in her face too that time.
How did she get that strong? So fast too. She has only gotten stronger since then. And yet for a time, she didn't believe in any of this. Sigh. She is an odd girl, to say the least. Getting sealed in her that one time didn't help either.
She just had to pop up out of nowhere and just... sigh I both hate and love her. And I have no idea as to how she did that either. She even learned how to breathe fire and ice... what is she?
And why is she hiding her strength? Everyone is really underestimating her. With that, she popped up in front of me. I smiled having gotten what I wanted. She sighed.
She then said, "What do you want?"
I said, "I love you. Please free me."
She said, "I don't trust you."
I said, "You trust the monkey more than me?"
She said, "Which one."
I said, "both."
Amber glared at me with her bright gem-blue eyes. Deeper than you would expect. Like something trying to swallow me whole. Chilling. And beautiful.
Amber then said, "I'm telling everyone what I am."
I said with glee, "oh, and what are you going to tell them."
Then she said, "An author insert. And a fan insert character."
I chuckled then said, "Not what I was hoping for. Why not tell your tale of old? Well old to you."
Amber said, "Because I don't remember all of it and I have been. It's just disjointed because I remember what I remember at a time. not in order. And I have been trying to write it all out. ... it just might not be published yet. And Wukong wants me to cover his parts and Jesus wants me to cover his parts. It's going to take a while. I have a lot I went through."
