The Legend of Trinity (Completed)

Chapter 14

*3rd P.O.V*
Darena had never felt better in any place before she was reunited with Albert after being part for so long. In their embrace, she could feel the love, the honesty, all the things she had never felt in her childhood. If only everything could be okay. After the events of that night, trouble was certain. Another Assembly was going to be held to discuss the events that occurred that night, and why the man that now was clear to be The Dark Lord was saying that Darena was his sister. Darena now not only had to clear her name and gain back the trust that people had in her, but also find a way to defend her people from the danger that they were about to face. Nobody had any idea of what The Dark Lord had in store for the Trinity and its members, but the darkest and cruelest part of his evil plan was reserved for none other than his darling sister, who had to in some point decide between her life and the safety of her people. Tension filled the atmosphere during the days leading up to the next Assembly, that took place in the newly restored Twilight Castle, which had been remodeled a few months after Darena and Albert went in to have a look. After at least 3 hours of preparations, the Council Elders were ready to begin with the Assembly.

-"We are gathered here on this evening to go forward with the 990th Assembly of the Trinitarian Council. In this Assembly, we will be discussing the family history of the now Twilight Princess, Darena Matrixlyn. This Assembly was necessary to clear some issues and therefore bring peace to the Twilatians, who most certainly have doubts about their new ruler. Ms. Darena, do you mind answering the questions that this Council lays forth to you?"- Galian, one of The Council Elders, asks Darena, eyeing her with suspect and doubt.

-"Yes Sir Galian, I do not have any inconvenient in answering the questions the people of this Council or of the Twilatians. I will answer anything with the most compete honesty possible."- She replies, sitting up straight in her seat. Galian nods.

-"Very well, let's begin then. Are you, by any means, related to The Dark Lord?"- He asks, glaring at Darena. The reason for this was not only the fact that he lost his title because of her, also because he wanted to be rid of the cursed Princess for once, since he knew she would be trouble to Trinity, without even knowing that she was the one meant to save Trinity from destruction.

-"I asked myself that question before, and I found the answer in ' The Library of the Unknown' not so long ago. I am related to him by matters of blood, since he is my brother. This information was unknown to me, and since I was raised in The Human Realm and brought here less than a few days ago, you can't really accuse me of conspiracy when I didn't even know who I was for 16 years of my life."- Darena replies, a bit of annoyance in her voice. Reverend Lighx smiles.

-"We understand Ms., no need to get annoyed or anything."- He says, still smiling warmly.

-"I apologize Reverend, I do not know what came over me at the moment. I guess what happened at my trial has not left my mind, and it weighs me down very badly the reason why my brother decided to go over to the Dark Side."-

-"And what is that reason Ms. Matrixlyn?"- Alexandrian asks, somewhat cockily.

-"He didn't give an accurate reason, but he did say that it was predicted before the First War ended. His word were: <"After the War, two shall be born. One, The Savior, the other, the one who will rise above all and become the new Lord of Darkness. The Savior must vanquish The Dark Lord, but none can survive the cut of a blood tie.">. That was his reply when I asked why he had become what he is. It's unfortunate that I can't provide more information about him, I apologize."-

-"That's alright Princess. Now, did you ever wonder who you were in your past life?"- Reverend Lighx questions, his smile not as warm as before.

-"Every adopted child does, at some point, especially when you're left in the orphanage after a family got tired of you. You wonder why you were abandoned, and if you ever had some importance, or if you were the child of a person with power. The possibilities of what you wonder in such sadness are endless. You never know, so you just leave it to your imagination and your deduction. Next question."- Darena answers, her eyes saddened.

-"Well, this last question is one that might trigger you, as in your emotions, so if you can't handle it don't answer." Alexandrian says, no emotion in his own voice. Darena nods. "Do you know, by any means, if your parents, the past rulers of the Realm of Twilight, Deren Matrixlyn and Darlena Matrixlyn, are still alive?"- Darena frowns as she thinks for a few moments.

-"I don't know, but aren't they supposed to be dead, since they committed high treason by being the ones that had a Human child and The Dark Lord as a children. That is what I understood from what I read in 'The Condemned' when I went to The Heavenly Prisons. I know nothing else of them."- She replies, her brows now on their normal state. The room is silent for a few minutes, since everyone is analyzing what Darena has just said. Nobody knew the reason why she had gone to The Prisons, and they didn't even imagine that she had fooled the guards and gotten inside and even read 'The Condemned', a book that many considered unreadable because of the messy handwriting in which the content is written. So you can already imagine the surprise everybody had upon knowing that Darena had been able to read 'The Condemned'.

-"Ms. Matrixlyn, when and how did you obtain knowledge of such places and items if you have always been in The Human Realm ever since little? That information is limited to Council members only, so how you managed to obtain it is certainly something we all must know."- Galian asks, wonderstruck, just like everybody else in the room. Darena remains silent, not even knowing how she got the information herself. She just knew where to go in the moment she decided to find out who The Dark Lord and why he was after her. But of course, nobody with logical reasoning would believe this. Darena desperately searched for an answer, but only found herself in more doubt than before. Silence and tension now fill the room, and that just graved Darena's desperation. Then as suddenly as she had blinked, the answer came to her as clear as water. She had dreamed about going to a faraway place in the sky as a little girl, a place where criminals were placed, and also, a place where the deepest secrets lies hidden under doors and guards. The realization left as quickly as it came, so Darena had no choice but to speak as fast as she could to not leave any details out.

-"Well, as a child I dreamed about traveling to a place faraway in the clouds, right above them. This place contained secrets and there criminals were imprisoned for a lifetime. That's how I know. I had many dreams that were of all these places, the Realms and everything. But I never found an explanation until that night, when I went into The Prisons. It all makes sense now, it really does."- She replies, still trying to get more information out of her brain, but nothing else came out. The stares were indefinite, and so was Darena's answer. Although, she isn't the one who knows the right answer, and it isn't her brother either, only the ones who are supposed to be dead know why their daughter knows all about Trinity, since she doesn't know who she really is, otherwise than the Twilight Princess. If it took 16 years to get her to know she was a Princess, how long was it going to take for her to find out her true destiny?
