Fly Until You See The Light

Passage - Chapter 3

Hi diary! I know two weeks passed, but I had to do a lot of daily quests for the Village.

As you know, I've done one of the first Lessons of the Passage, the Season that came recently. It was fun! Me and other Children from different realms had to search for some student who didn't want to start the Season, and we managed to take them back to the Passage Stone, where they finally introduced their selves to us: their names are Horand, Leilah, Mihok and Joyz. I think that they are the Seasonal Spirits... You know... The Mope, the Overachiever, the Troublemaker and the Outcast? It's them!

The first three are Ojtaro siblings, while the last one is just a friend or a student like me and my friends, who were with me. This doesn't make Ojtaro a Spirit, since he is already an... An Elder, yeah... Long thing to explain.

Anyways: when the students finally told us everything we needed to know, Ojtaro came too! He was quite sure of himself, really confident!

When the Lesson ended, he, me and my company of friends (there were Symphony, Orlando, Yashi, Mona, Tewezo and Youssef) started to talk for some minutes. We all discussed about the next Lesson, and Ojtaro told us that he cannot give any anticipations... So, here I am, waiting for the second Lesson to start.

That day I asked him how his first time in the Cave of Prophecies went, and he sighed. He didn't like it, he said.

«It was... Monotone. The Prophets and the Guide treat me like I'm already a King. They just talked about the Trials and how they will be» he told me. Yes, he wasn't excited about that... He's trying to change that thing of calling him "future ruler" because he'd like to be called just Oj'... That's so adorable...

«Do you really have to put my quotes into your diary, Sen'?» Ojtaro asks her with not convinced eyes. «I mean, I like it; but isn't it... A little weird?».

«Mh... Nope. I consider it as a form of inspiration! Also, your quotes are lovely!» Sentinekka answers, smiling. She adores the way Ojtaro talks, it's ancient and funny at the same time.

«If you say so, I won't rebel against it» he nods and continues:«Are you excited for the Lesson of today? It will be very difficult, but the others will be worse».

«Did you have to say it?» she looks at him, scared of what she'll have to deal with.

«I just wanted to tell you, so you won't be surprised» he chuckles with a playful expression. He then looks at the night, slowly coming on the Isle. «Will you wait for me outside the Cave, after the Lesson?».

«Of course I will! Don't worry!» Sentinekka exclaims, smiling in her adorable and innocent way. She watches Ojtaro stand up, then asks:«Are you going to the Trials?».

He nods. «Wish me luck» he concludes. «The first Trial is Water».

«But... There's ice in that Trial...». Oh, Megabird. He hates ice. «Are you sure you have to do that?» she asks, concerned.

«I have to. I have to overcome that fear, anyways».

«Good luck, Oj'. I'll be...» Sen' smirks and continues, singing this words with an amused expression:

«... Waitin' in patience for you, "dah"».

Ojtaro chuckles, just to end up laughing. He looks at his friend, who is elegantly sitting on the sand, and asks:«Why are you like this?». He says this with amazed, but also happy eyes. He's glad that Sen' is able to make him feel joyful.

Sentinekka giggles. «Just go and show the Water what you're capable of, Ojtaro! You'll go great!».
