The wind blew, the clouds were getting darker, showing that it could rain at any moment. In the middle of the woods, two bodies could be seen, one was still warm but sadly the other one keeps getting colder and colder. 

Raindrops touches the warm one cheek's, waking her in up. "Ugh.." the young girl grunted. Flashes of what had happened appeared on her thought. She shook the cold bodies on top of her. Sniffled could be heard escaping her mouth.

She gather all her strength trying to stand up. She then decided to check for survivor, but before she did that, she moved the body of her dead grandfather, giving it a proper burial. The rain was getting heavier, she walk to the town, with the heavy step she took, tears went down her cheek. All she could see was burn buildings, flashback of all those building being filled with people and laughter flashes in her thought but now all were gone.

She continued to walk, the rain covering her tears. Then she stop, her eyes widen, mouth opening, the scene she saw will forever be implanted in her memories, she was horrified, bodies of her friends, of the town's people lifeless on the ground, some were even burned to be non-recognizable. She screamed aloud, but her voice was silence by the rain.

Croissant gave each one of her friends and town's people proper burial, no matter how long it takes, every single time she shed her tears. The fortress surrounding the land was already gone before she even realize. Day by day past she kept hoping there would be survivor, but all was in vain, she was alone..

One day, people outside started to come inside the island, mostly pirates who were seeking for supplies and such, but she would always with her power blew them away. She never kill them, because of that rumors started to fly, saying that the island is curse and can't be enter, but all she did was protect the island alone..

"Mamamamama, a curse island they say? Isn't that the location of the Elementalist race?" a tall slim woman wearing a talking bicorne said.

"Yes, mama, but we receive report all were killed" A man reply.

"I want to go there, mamamama"

"What about your children, mama? They are still young after all"

"They can take care of themselves, call Perospero"

"Perorin, I'm already here mama" said a young man with a long tongue as he appear out of nowhere.

"Mamamama, Perospero, how old are you now?"

"I'm 15 mama"

"That's old enough. You take care of your siblings, I will be going somewhere"

"Yes, mama"

"Prepare the ship!"

"There's nobody anymore.." Said a young girl weakly, her white hair covered in dirt, her silver eyes was dull, under it could be seen dark circles results of sleepless night.

She walked inside her late grandfather library, she search for information about the island. After a few days, she found them, it said that the island was unnaturally made. Because of that, the island is power by an energy source. She found that energy source at the basement of the late chief's house, but she was too late, the power couldn't be restore anymore.

Croissant also found that if the island doesn't have an energy source it will slowly sink. She realize that even if she wanted to stay she couldn't. She went back to her house, from the book it says that maybe 2 weeks and the island will be completely submerge underwater.
