Empire Royalties

2 : D-Day

Saint

*Birds Chirping*

I woke up in serenity. I roam my eyes only realizing that I am now standing in a tall grass field facing a paradise. Where a beautiful lake and the blue sky meets the heavenly peace of water. High mountains are visible on the other side. The view is spectacular yet unknown.

Where am I?

From the peak of the mountains through the tree roots is speaking to me foreign.

"The north..." I heard someone call me from the back of my head. I look around, to search who possesses that uncanny voice of a woman.

"Who is it?" My brows furrowed.

I kept on searching as it keeps calling me from no where. I even almost stumble and trip myself when I step on a tangled roots

"The north" I stop when she finally decided to show herself...

She looks so enchanting with her ash white hair and a pair of reddish-orange orbs. Everything on her is so pale and lifeless but her flaming orbs seems to put life in it.

She's wearing a detailed white lacy button down longsleeve dress that covers her up to her toe. Her hair and dress folds fly along with the waves of air.

"Who are you?" I sounded breathless

I can feel how powerful and dominating her presence is, its obscure but its not frightening me.

"I am the truth" she speaks in such an abstract, dreamy way.

"The truth?" I arched my brow. Obviously doesn't have any idea who this strange woman is.

Her eyes light up in amusement,

"We've been waiting for you to come,"

My brows furrow trying to figure out what she's trying to say

"Home." She answered that leave my mouth slightly open.

I looked at her deep in her eyes, "Who's waiting for me?" I asked.

"You'll see." she gave me a smile.

"Let your forthcoming be the reason of truth to be unfold,"

"The north." She said as she fade along with the breeze of air.

I woke up again all sweaty and bothered. What was that? Who was that?

Cal jump on my bed licking my face and arms looking like he's been waiting for me to wake up. I tapped his head to inform him that I'm totally awake.

I just stared at the ceiling under in a dilemma again. Everything that happened lately is complete absurd. Parang mismong panahon na ang gumagawa at binibigyan ako ng dahilan para umuwi.

I don't mind going home actually, dahil wala naman akong pamilya na maiiwan dito. In fact, the only reason I stayed here in the mortal world is to avenge my Aunt's Death. I am guilty and I'm craving for revenge.

Remembering that day, I could've done something than just to cower on the corner... for fucking sake they're just mere humans and I possess a power that nobody has in this world but I still hadn't done anything to save her other than to cry.
