A/N: I'm Really sorry for not updating in a while, But I'm back and this Part is going to have to be a long one.

At the creation of the universe, Planets ,stars and everything else. There was vacancy an emptiness that was looking to be filled, thus the planet Earth got humans and the rest is a bit more of a touchy topic.

The least we can least talk about the Crescentia; a tribe of women who tend to the moon and stars. Thier beauty was not of any mortal with eyes like the fury of the sun and distinctive features strict to thier tribes - the celestial seals was one, a marking that determined your place in the society- A language known as omnirica a special language and dialect of which consists of every earthly language.... with the exception of

"this is your daily reminder, during the period of the Black moon only a handful of guards can protect the Archives be free to read and study as you wish but remember all books and texts of the English language which seem to have accumulated shall not be touched and shall in fact be disposed of during the Choosing ceremony, We don't want you communicating with the Gimire....."

The rest was lost to Lalitha's ears , her white formal robe was a burden on her small frame 

"I'm going to die of either suffocation or melting which ever does the job first." she exclaimed fanning herself exaggeratedly to draw her mother's attention away from the bath she was preparing for her she groaned loud enough for the orb to stop giving it's announcements and turn towards her. she could feel it's eyes on her even though it had none.

"Get in!" her mother shouted but not as loud as her daughter's unruly noise, though Lalitha didn't want to she did it anyway, which was an uncommon sight by her mother. "My daughter," she began "Chosen, oh such an honor, You know this only happens every year, and with you there I bet it will be a bountiful share"

This ritual of the choosing  was kind of this giving of one's soul to offer to the fates - The leaders and governors- and in return they give a fruitful energy harvest to feed the colonies.

" Uwa, there is no way any of this is worth a little bit more replenishment " she shouted in retaliation, "This is truly barbaric, this is horrible, I can't do this, in case you don't realize it, They will kill me! Maybe it's because I'm one of the less important daughters, yes that's why you  bring me like a lamb to the slaughter...." that thought was cut short but her mothers hot glare "See you are going to do this, and you are going to do it now, this is an honor, you will be grateful", she said letting a hot slap pepper Lalitha's face. 

Lalitha touched her now hot face and tears prickled her eyes, yet they didn't fall she looked at her mother and saw the sadness in what she had done. Lalitha ceased he protest and sunk down into the bath only her head visible " Méual mak" she solemnly said.

"I know now get ready" she said as she got up, acting as though nothing had happened, "You've only got two days till the ceremony,  in this situation do what your heart tells you my daughter, you need it." she may have said something else but Lalitha dunked her head under water.
