To Dwell In Nightmares and Dreams

Salvia

They step into a crowded area. Stiles stiffened a little as he looked at all the people gathered here. It reminded him of when he'd spoken to the people of Mind for the first time. There where thousands here. They all wore the Air Districts colours, yellow, blue, grey and white. Where all these people...?

"Yes, they are all people of my District" The Lady of Air said, as if she could read minds but Stiles assumed his expression had been a dead give-away.

Her citizens all stepped back, slowly making a pathway through the ground. Quite a few Stiles noticed, where sobbing and holding each other in mourning.

Stiles wondered if he could possibly ever be able to have devoted subjects such as these, if he worked really hard and maybe in years and years even hundreds then...maybe it was possible?

They where in a green area, everything was flat, no trees or houses, only grass soft under their feet.

The sorcerer made path was leading to the middle of the giant grown. Stiles court his breath as he noticed in the middle that they where lead to, was a large rock, quite flat on top, a little rough around the edges. Runes had been calved into the rock and different colour flowers had been placed gently and carefully around the base.

The flowers Stiles realised where all colours of the Air District and all the other districts. It was very...vibrant looking but also beautiful.

"This is where I will rest" The Lady of Air said calmly.

She gave Stiles a patient wry smile "Would you mind helping me on to it? My strength is not as it was"

"Of course" Stiles replied.

Hesitantly but with ease, he lifted her up a little then she pulled herself into a sitting position on the stone, as soon as she did that Stiles startled as suddenly every single subject knelt then bowed their heads low, eyes on the floor.

She then eased herself into a lying position.

Stiles and Madam Rucia then watch astounded as a strong breeze suddenly whips up the flowers  then circles the flowers around them, it was almost like the levitation rune but Stiles could feel and hear the wind pick up, circling the flowers around and around them like a mini tornado.

"You can now look into my eyes and I will tell you my name and after you have seen what you needed to see, repeat this after me"

She leaned up a little and whispered a few sentences in his ear. Stiles blinked away any tears, it made sense didn't it? For him to do it?

The Lady Of Air lay down once more and for the first time her and Stiles eyes connected.

At first Stiles didn't feel anything but then...

"My name, is Salvia" The Lady of Air said simply but before Stiles could react memories rushed through him.

But they where not his own.

Suddenly Salvia wanting him to remember her made a lot more sense.
