"Like a music box ballerina spinning to appease its master."


In a bright room with 13 beams, all 13 oracles were seated in a chair ready to start their meeting. The head Oracle raised his pointer and index fingers up, signalling the start of the meeting.
All went silent as they heard the beating of the gangsas, a sign to be silent.

"Alas, have we not had a meeting for so long. However, there has been a big concern regarding the relic of recreation." Their leader deliberately spoke in a concerned tone, informing the twelve of the serious concern. A certain male oracle bit his inner lip as worry took over his body and mind.

"The relic has been rebelling against us once more, due to the eldest demon prince who wished to find a bride. Apparently, Zenaku is ready to hand over his position to one of his sons, and he challenged the heirs to find a bride. This demon is influencing the relic to abandon her duties!" The man couldn't believe what he said, as he bent into a defensive position, standing up.

"That is impossible, Takuto! Misaki would never do that!" The man reasoned, looking at Takuto with pleading eyes.

A greenette female next to him glared, ordering the man to sit. He sighed, sulking as he still couldn't believe what his niece had done. He looked at the Oracle of Nature and Life (Zoo Branch Chief) in pardon.

"I know how you feel, Shin. Although Misaki has been one of our greatest gifts from the gods, she must be stopped from ever leaving the tree."

Takuto paused, "Because if she does, a huge population of the Oracle Clan will perish, and our duties as one of the supporting clans for the Goddess clan will be taken. The relics of recreation and Lady Angelica's tree has played a big part with our origin. If the current guardian leaves, then everything will wilt and our energy will fade." Takuto spoke in a deep tone, his serious expression seen as his aura illuminated even brighter than the rest.

However, the female facing him raised her hands, objecting. He raised a brow as he knew who the blue-haired woman was.

"I don't agree with you that your prediction will happen, brother. As the Oracle of Dedication and the user of the sacred magic PSYqualia, I believe that is not the case. She is in a dilemma. She knows about her choices and their consequences, but another feeling is residing within her... I guess you could say that she's that close to surpassing you if she were to realize what she is turning into."

"Leave the tree and harm your family? Or do your job, but never get a dream out of it?"

Misaki gasped, waking up from the nightmare she was having. She assumed that she fell asleep somewhere around 5 hours ago, when she was watching the twinkling night stars. Now, the sun was about to rise in the horizon, making a beautiful sunrise. Misaki smiled, enjoying the landscape as the sun appeared in the middle of the twin peaks.

"Wow, I never knew you were a sucker for horizons and landscapes." A voice she knew so well told her. She closed her eyes as the male stood beside her, admiring the view as well.

"I truly want to see the outside world, what lies ahead and what I have not discovered. But, if I leave, everything will be chaos in the Oracle Clan..." Her lips formed into frown as he glanced at her action. Kai had an idea and took her hand before guiding her to the waterfalls.
