Trinity~A Raven and Snakes story

Prophecy

Sebastian strode confidently down the halls of the Ministry, he had more of a spring in his step than he had in.....well quite awhile actually. Last night with Louis was actually the third time he had spent the night with him. His beautiful dark skin, pressed up against his...was invigorating. He had an easy way about him that made it pleasant to spend time with him, even when they weren't naked and tangled up.

He was on his way to the curse breaker office, through the department of mysteries, when someone stepped out of an office. The guy stood right in front of him to prevent him from continuing to his destination.

"Sebastian Sallow? I am the Keeper of the Hall, and there is a matter for you to review". He motioned to the door, with the words " Hall of Prophesy" written on it. What in the name of Merlin?

"Are you sure, you need me? How did you get my name?". Sebastian questioned, he didn't like this.

"Yes, if you are Sebastian Sallow, then I would mean you. Your name is written on the tag of the prophesy, yours and two others."

"Who else?" He asked. This didn't make a lot of sense, maybe the other names would shed some light on it.

"That's not for you to know, and they don't reside within our realm that we are aware of. The names are unknown to us. Would you like to hear the prophesy now or at a later time?", the Hall Keeper stated.

"What the Hell, sure. Lead on", he consented.

Sebastian would not let on, but this made him nervous as hell. He knew how limited and sacred prophesies were, why would someone have any vision of him. Very deep down, there always remained a worry within him that he would go fully dark like everyone was always so damn scared of. Hadn't he proven he could fight it? Whatever....not the time to go down that line of thinking again.

They walked awhile, a lot longer than made sense to him. Finally, they turned down a long isle, and walked to about midway through. The Keeper delicately grabbed the crystal orb and gave it to him. Sebastian asked , "who is the seer?"

"At this time, they do not wish to be known, it could compromise the prophesy."

Ah, clear as fucking mud. Ok....here goes.

Trinity

The three are not complete without the whole

Each side brings its own power

If not bound by love, misfortune falls

One pillar brings warmth and strength. Without it, the other sides falter and break.

Second pillar brings care and compassion. Without it, the other sides become cold and break.

Third pillar brings peace and balance. Without it, the other sides cause destruction and break.

Without the whole, darkness prevails.

Sebastian reread it, eight times. He loved learning, loved history, loved any puzzle to piece together. This one just didn't make any sense and he had no context for it at all.

"Well, my good man, this makes zero sense, what the hell am I supposed to do with this?".

The Keepers eyes widened..."well, sir, there is nothing to be done but sit and wait until the meaning reveals itself."

"That sounds like this is fucking useless then?" Sebastian said with a one sided smile.

The Keeper of the Hall was obviously offended. He put the prophesy back in a huff and Sebastian could hear him muttering something about "he should be honored to have a prophesy made"....
