Dragged my hands down my face as I walked around outside in the huge gardens that stood between the building.
A hand rested on the side of my face as I sighed, my legs stalling each time I passed an elm, staring up at it, searching the usual height I knew off but none could even compare.
None of their leaves was the right shade.
None of their roots reached up and out of the ground.
None of their trunks was large.
I couldn't find anything to compare what I lost too.
I didn't acknowledge the drizzle that came from the torment inside, if it wanted to rain than it can rain!
I grabbed my chest over where I shoved the seed with a heavy frown, why do I keep loosing everyone?
"Aurelius." I hissed out, thunder crackling at the sound of his name, he caused everything with his jealousy.
The war that took my first parents.
The loss of my egg and not being born to them.
Because of that being taken for a simple mage and taken from my second parents and them dying because I wasn't around to help the village survive through the winter.
The loss of my first parents again with the death of the elm.
The loss of my home.
The lost of a third mother....
She took the hit for me, she didn't think and she just took the hit for me.... Why were you so stupid?.... And why was I so slow?...
If not for me she'd be here, oh my gods if not for me she'd be here!!
I took a deep breath and like shook myself out, the heavy rain starting turned to a light drizzle again.
Don't externalize your pain Mystery or whoever you are now.... Let is boil.... Let is simmer.... But don't let it overflow.... Save that pain and anger for the man that took from you, that took from everyone.
"I'll look for Audrey." I muttered, walking off in a direction to try to find a gardener to point me in the right direction, even if I don't know to deal with a lot of emotions she does know how to deal with me.
"Even here you can't use the doors can you?" I spent at least a slice of sun looking for someone to point me here.
"Can't do." I was sitting on an oak's branch that is brought up to raise me to her window and I knocked on it.
"Well come on in before you make a rain storm." She tried to joke awkwardly which made me smile, climbing through the small window with ease as I had none of what I owned still on my person.
