On The Land, In The Sea

Heinry was in his deep sleep when suddenly a dazzling ray of light illuminated in front of his eyes. He used his arm to block the light from entering his eyes. All of a sudden, he heard a sweet yet deep and nuanced voice call his name.

???: "Heinry, my dear!"

Heinry turned his head towards the source of the voice. He blinked his eyes to get a clear view. He saw a middle aged woman. She had long, shiny and velvety cerulean hairs. Pearls and sapphires were adorned all over her turquoise blue dress. She looked like a fairy snapped out of a fairytale.

Heinry's eyes went upto the lady's head. He saw a golden crown gleaming with small teal blue gems and a huge crimson red pearl in the mid, resting there. Thats when he realized who she was. Tears welled up in his eyes as he spoke bitterly clenching his jaws.

Heinry: "Mother Harle, what took you so long? Where were you, why did you leave me?"

The woman went near him and embraced him, patting his head she spoke lovingly.

Mother Harle: "There, there I didn't knew you would miss me so much!."

Heinry hugged the lady tightly and begged her while whimpering: "Mother Harle please dont ever leave me. Please! You can scold me and even hit me but dont punish this lonely man with your absence.

Mother Harle laughed and sat down while Heinry put his head on her lap just like a small kid. Mother Harle brushed Heinry's hair with her long, soft and slender fingers.

Mother Harle: "I heard you found her!"

Heinry's head shot up. He sat straight with amusement in his eyes and held Mother Harle's shoulder frimly.

He chimmed with excitement just like a ten year old with glimmer in his eyes, he spoke.

Heinry: "Oh Mother Harle! She is the same as the way you described. She has those same soft, lush and velvety blue hairs. She has greenish blue shiny eyes. Her lashes are long and eyes as beautiful as morning dew. She has a charming mole under her lips."

He kept describing the girl as Mother Harle listened to everything he was saying with admiration in her eyes.

Heinry: "Oh and you know her name is 'Ezra'!"

Mother Harle smiled sheepishly and said: "So the boy has grown up. I'll be left all alone now." Saying that she disappears in thin air.

Heinry woke up, eyes brimming with tears. He realized he was dreaming. He was finally at peace. He looked at the clock, it was almost midnight. He went to his bed chamber to take a rest.

On his way he passed through Ezra's room. He stopped for a brief moment, smiled to himself and contemplated whether to knock or not. He was unable to control his masculine urge to see her, just once before he goes to sleep. He want to have sweet dreams about her.

At the same time on the other side of the door, Ezra was getting herself ready for bed. She moved towards the window to close it. Suddenly she tripped over something.

She picked up the thing lying on the white checked marble floor and started examining it. She gasped once she realized what it was.

Ezra: "This is the map route to Vivid Cerulean Pearl. Where did this come from. If my memory serves me right I lost everything in the sea."

She keenly observed the map studying the details. It suddenly clicked her
Ezra: "Aq came inside the room through this window, does this map belong to him? But why would he want the pearl? Is this what he meant by being my enemy!"

Aq was a slave of Wave Union who escaped and therefore was chased. Wave union was formed by the alliance of two small kingdom. Even after their defeat in the war against Azurethra, a small yet powerful portion of the Union remained. Both kingdoms were loathed for power and wealth. They did all sort of illegal works. From children to elders, they spared no one in their dirty game for authority.
