Part 4
The Magicians Grandson
A/N: Editing.......
I woke up from the noise of a chirping bird. I slowly opened my eyes and realized that I was in a house. Then I remembered that I was sent somewhere by Crocas.
I sat up in my bed and tried to examine the surrounding. It has strange furniture’s of blue and purple pigment. The bed was right beside the window with sky-blue curtains waving from the cool breeze of nature. A bow and arrow was right above the bed. It has a moon design that made it majestic.
I stood up and walked around the room. It was enough for a single person to live and sleep here. I looked unto the cabinet hanging in a corner and found some folded clothes. I took one and realized that a man was living here.
A noise was rushing outside the room and eventually, the door flung open. A gray wolf came in. it’s eyes were like emeralds and fur so thick. I was scared but I didn’t panic. It only stared at me as if I am not food at all. Then, right behind the wolf appeared the man who was probably living here. He has silver hair and red eyes that shine like the finest ruby in the world. His skin was pale with pinkish on his cheeks. He was wearing a blue garment covering his body. To tell the truth, he was the most handsome boy I’ve ever seen since I was born.
“You’re awake. I thought your still sleeping.” He spoke.
“I just woke up a little while ago.” I answered. “I’m sorry. I must have caused you trouble.”
“No, don’t worry about it. Last night I found you outside the house and so I took you in here. you were bleeding and your left arm was...” he stopped looking unto my reaction.
“Don’t worry about it. it’s just an arm, it’s no big deal.”
There was silence between the two us.
“So, where do you come from?” he asked.
“I came from the palace of the Undead. I was sent here by Crocas.”
Before I could continue, the boy leaped towards me and looked at me closely. I mean, literally close.
“You don’t look like the Undead. Are you their new experiment? Are you related to the Butcher? I heard that was their latest experiment.
“No I’m not! I’m not an Undead and I’m totally not related to the Butcher. I am a human!” I screamed.
Again, the same reaction that I got from Crocas happened. The boy was surprise.
“Y..you’re a human?”
“Yes I am! I’m not an Undead!”
The boy was silent with his red eyes widened. He was totally shock.
“I can’t believe it. A real human. We thought...we all thought that you are just myths. To think...to think that you are real is really a surprise.”
“We are not myths and to make you feel better, I am not an illusion. I totally exist and I live in a world known as Earth.” I answered.
“So the book was true. Humans really live in the world called Earth.”
“OF course we do. Where did you know about it anyway?”
He took the book from the bookshelf and showed it to me.
“This book tells so. The author was anonymous so I don’t know who wrote it but his words were so real so I believed that Earth and humans existed.”
“ ‘Are Humans Myths?’ that’s a weird title for a book.”
“But now, the title is not important because you are here already! A true and alive human! I’m so glad!” he then took me by his arms and hugged me. He was like a fan of humans.
“Okay, okay, that’s enough. I’m glad that you are able to make your wishes come true. I’m truly happy for you.”
“Yeah, thank you too. But wait, why are you our world any way? I thought you were living on Earth.”
“Yeah, that is something that is so vague to me now but I will still tell you everything.”

It took me almost an hour just talking about the tale on how I came here on Gaia. Oz, the boy’s name was actually so interested with the story. He was even asking me to tell the life of the humans and how we live. He was interested with our school and education, history, religion, beliefs and everything.
“So that’s the reason why the Undead kidnapped you, it was to revive the Lich King.” He spoke after telling him everything.
“Yes but it’s still vague for me. If Crocas is here, he can tell you everything.”
Oz was silent for a while.
“Oz, is something wrong?”
“Grandpa went to the Undead to fulfill a mission. Mother, father and I tried to stop him but he won’t listen to us. He said, if he won’t fulfill the prophecy, the Elves kingdom will fall down. Now I know why he risked his life.” Oz spoke sadly. He must have missed his grandpa.
“I’m sorry.”
“No, you must not say sorry to me. It was my grandpa’s decision and I respect it. If I were in his situation, I will do the same too.”
Oz spoke as he sweetly smiled to me.
“Do you know a man named Phench?” I asked as I remembered what Crocas told me to do.
“Yes I do. Why are you asking?”
“Please take me to him. I have to see him soon.”
