Song of The Rebellion

The Biggest Sin

Kaye's POV

"Mnemosyne faded while hiding in the mortal realms. Her oracles lost her presence while she was away." Matilda informed me.

I gritted my teeth.

Ilang araw na ba ever since we started looking for the titan goddess' whereabouts. Pero mahirap hanapin ang isang goddess na hindi gustong mahanap.

"May oracle ba siya na nasa Pilipinas? We need to get a hold of that person..." tanong ko kay Kia, ang leader ng Amazon tribe. Nakatayo naman sa tabi niya si Heather.

"I've sent an amazon to check. She has not arrived yet." sagot niya.

I massaged my temples while looking down at a map of the Philippines. Dito nagsimula ang rebellion.

"Nga pala... may impormasyon na ba tayo tungkol sa half-titan na anak niya?" tinignan ko si Heather.

Umiling siya. Sinabi niya ring ayon sa kanilang limitadong kaalaman, sigurado silang patay na ang lalaking yon.

I sighed. "Gods help us."

Sumasakit na yung ulo ko.

"Tell me the area where she was last detected."

Napatingin kami kay Trev na nakapamulsa at nakasandal sa pader. Sa sobrang tahimik niya, muntik ko nang nakalimutan na kasama pala namin siya.

Tinignan ko ang aurai. "Where was it?"

"Last trace of her divine mist is somewhere in Luzon. It's hard to find a specific location. Her presence was felt everywhere in the mortal realms." sagot nito.

Tinignan ko ulit si Trev na malalim ang iniisip. As far as I'm concerned, naging priority na niya ang bumisita dito at makiisa sa paghahanap.

"Which area had the heaviest mist the past ten to twenty years?" tanong niya.

"Umm.." dali-daling nagscan ang aurai sa kanyang notebook na may lamang records. "It was at Mount Pinatubo. The record says it lasted for..." kumunot ang kanyang noo. "a night?"

Nagtaka rin ako. The mist became the heaviest in just one night?

"Wasn't it caused by an eruption?" bahagya akong napatingin sa records niya.

Umiling ang aurai. "No... it didn't match the year it last erupted. The mist happened to be there years after the eruption I think."

Nakita ko kung paano niya binilugan ang nakasulat na 'Mount Pinatubo'.

"Were the rebels detected the same time as the mist?" karagdagang tanong ni Trev.

Sumingkit ang aking mga mata. What is he up to? Alam niya namang pati ang mga Olympians ay nakisali sa paghahanap noon.

"Yes. Ayon dito sa records, ito rin yung panahon na tumigil na ang ginawang massacre ng rebels." the aurai answered.

"Heather." tinawag ni Trev si Heather na maiging nakikinig sa pagpapalitan ng impormasyon.

"The rebels were last active in that mountain. The mist was at its thickest which means they were trying to hide something."

"I'll send some of my huntres immediately." tugon ni Heather.

I titlted my head. Bakit? Ano nga ba ang nangyari sa lugar na'yon?

"If the rebels were trying to hide something from the Olympians..." napatingin si Trev sa gawi namin.
