Warning

Robin's POV

"There is a problem," that was the first thing that the empress said after Maximilian and I arrived back in the palace.

This nosy king beside me insisted on going with me so I had no choice but to let him.

"The ocean..." she said. "Everything is turning black."

"What do you mean?" tanong ko.

"The rivers, the ocean, every water in our land is black," nagtataka ngunit galit niyang tugon sa akin.

"I have already talked to the mages and they all said that the waters are cursed," sabat ni Leon.

"That is what's happening to my city too," sabi naman ni Maximilian. "We were at Galdar, dinala ko si Robin doon upang tingnan namin ang kalagayan ng lugar."

"The mages are right, the waters are cursed," saad ko at nagsindi muli ng sigarilyo. This thing is stressing me out.

At hindi ko maitatago sa aking mga kapatid na naapektuhan ako sa nangyayari sa buong siyudad.

"Ayos ka lang?" tanong ni Magnus ngunit nanahimik lamang ako. "Hanapin natin ng solusyon yan, nanghihina si Robin."

"I'm fine," pagsisinungaling ko kahit ramdam ko sa sarili ko ang pagod kahit wala naman akong ginawa.

The waters in Wistervale is connected to me, ang nangyayari sa mga ito ay ramdam ko dahil sa aking kapangyarihan.

My sister is the snow, Leon is the darkness, Tobias is the light.

Every one of us has something. At ngayon na nangyayari ito ay naapektuhan ang aking kapangyarihan.

Kung sino man ang gumawa ng sumpa ay tiyak kong hindi ito estupido upang hindi malaman na maapektuhan ako sa kagagawan niya.

"Where are you going?" tanong ni Blair nang makita akong naglakad papalayo.

"To bathe," I answered but I wasn't going to my room.

Whoever made the curse should run and hide because I am not letting that fuck-face do this to me and to the entire Wistervale.

"Where are you going? Have you heard about Arsamanedon?" King Percival asked when he bumped into me.

"The waters? Yes," sagot ko at dire-diretso na naglakad palayo.

"Robin!" tawag ni Maximilian na nakasunod sa akin.

"It started in your land, right?" I asked him with the cigarette in my mouth.

"Yes, what are you going to do?"

"Hunting the curse giver," I smirked and disappeared.

Narinig ko pa ang pagdating ni Magnus kaya alam ko na susunod ang dalawang yon sa akin.

Tumingala ako sa kalangitan nang makarating ako sa galdar.

I should finish my cigarette first, right?

I rested my left hand on my waist while the other was holding the cigarette in my mouth.

Hmm... who the fuck did this?

Nang maubos ko ang sigarilyo at dumiretso ako sa ilog.

I have always loved the waters but now that I am in this one, I hate it. It didn't feel calm, it felt like shit.

"Robin!"

I didn't look back to Magnus who called my name.

So noisy.
