(Y/n's pov)

The next morning me and gryffin parted ways. He went to train in the court yard which I never knew there was one. I decided to go check it out, I noticed him training. He was working out with his shirt off. Gryffin was pretty built even after all of this was going on. He didn't have a crazy body type where he had an eight pack. He had abs but it wasn't crazy noticeable. It was entrancing just watching him work out and do his morning routine of making sure he was still in shape. There were other people outside though, I watched them all run around the court yard and stay in shape. Ranging from teens to adults. Men and women. I noticed that this organization wasn't dominated by a certain gender. It's a balance of men and women. It wasn't dominated by a certain group of people, it was all equal. I was still watching gryffin do his routine. Letting my thoughts flow through my mind with billions of questions and just thoughts.
"You love to stare." I jumped at the voice behind me and I turned around and saw the woman I saw yesterday who walked through the door of the office. Except the difference was she wore her robes and her hood was over her head with her cirly hair on her shoulders. She still had that blind fold over both her eyes, making my curious. "Your her." She said and I tilted my head with a raised brow. "Y/n douglas." Tyga extended her arm out to me, I take her hand and Shaw it gently. "Tyga renolds." She introduced and I smiled at her. "Youhave penni's smile." Tyga said and smiled at me. It made me even more curious as to how she could see me with that blind fold on. "Why do you have that blindfold on?" I asked her and she hummed. "Walk with me." I followed her through the halls of the temple, not sure of where we were going but we were just walking together.
"I was kidnapped by demwars when I was a child. They manipulated us and made some kids stockholm." Tyga started which shocked me how she was telling me this after I just met her. "They kidnapped both me and my brother, din. After me and my brother didn't comply with the demwars, they figured that we were useless to them." Tyga stated. "For the record, we were both 11. The demwars took us to a dark room. I remember a woman who they called "Mama" walked in the room. She was cruel. Her real name is agitha shes a real nutcase. Completely lost her mind." She said, I could feel her anger radiating already. "She cut my brothers tongue out and with the same knife, stabbed both my eyes." I was shocked to hear this story. It was horrible to hear, I felt so much sympathy. They were 11 when this happened which was even worse to hear. They were kids. Demwars did this to kids. I can't imagine what the kids are going through now.
"I'm so sorry!" I say sympathetically but she shakes her head. "Don't worry about it. When the time comes I'll do the same thing mama did to me." She pulled her sleeves up and revealed the scars I saw before. "They burned me too." I gently caress her scars with my fingers, making me feel awful seeing them. It almost felt intrusive but she didn't mind. "The endo took me and din in at 14 years old. We are both now 28." She was apart of this for a very long time. It was amazing how long some people were here for. "How can you see?" I asked her and we both began walking again. "The light in my soul is very strong, it helps me see with new eyes though I don't have my physical ones. I can see you have...H/C hair...E/C colored eyes...you have your mother's smile. You are very much a douglas." She says with a smile. "So intuition?" I asked her and she nodded. "The light feeds my intuition and it creates a very accurate depiction of what the human eye would normally see. In my mind, I can see you standing in front of me right now." It was interesting to hear her story and the way that she could see. Although it's hard to believe, when I'm around people who prove they have these capabilities, it's hard to deny at that point. "You've been to the equinox. No one's ever came back from the equinox before. Your the first." It's like I haven't even heard it before, but I've heard it so much that I've seemed to grow numb of the thought. "Yeah...I guess it's a big deal." I say and tyga stopped and turned to me. "It's a very big deal. Only people who have a prophecy to fulfill have come back from the equinox and that's not very common." She explained. "What prophecy to I have to fulfill?" I asked her and she grabbed my wrist and pulled me into the library right next to us. The books were all picked up and cleaned. Tyga sorted through the scrolls on the book shelf and then pulled one out.
"Read for yourself."
I take the scroll in my hand and read through it.

"The half-blooded endo, someone who wields powerful light. Soon to take back what was theirs in the first place. Fighting along side the one they loved most, both darkness and the light will clash together once two lovers meet once again. Love always wins."

"I'm a expert in scrolls, prophecies. I can see what happens and what I see is you attached to this prophecy." Tyga said, pointing at this scroll.
"That's why tyga is here." Jene said behind me by the door with nature and pheonix behind her.
"We found that scroll in hopes to find a connection to all of this. We called out to tyga." Jene added again and took the scroll in her hand. "Light and darkness are going to clash together and form a Unity. That's when the equinox becomes more balanced then ever before." Tyga explained and looked at jene who looked down at me. "It will be you..." jene said and gripped that scroll in her hands. "We have to find who the other may be."
Pheonix said and eyed me for a bit.
"We will be going to a rally at the capitol to see what's going on." Jene said. "We need you here to keep you as safe as possible." I furrowed my eyebrows. "I'm coming with you." I protested but jene shakes her head, annoyed that I would speak against her word after what she said. "Your light is too strong. It would be too dangerous." I folded my arms and looked at her sternly. "You have a bounty on your head, do you not? It's more dangerous for you to go than me. Everyone believes I'm dead." Jene was taken aback when I say this, her eyes were wide and she cleared her throat. "Fine...gryffin will stick by your side. Pheonix, stay here and take leadership over the temple. Nature, you take a group of people to find others with the light energy." Jene said and looked at me. "Stay close. Don't make eye contact, stay hidden in the crowd." She instructed. We grabbed gryffin and he agreed to keep me safe. Later that night we got to the capitol, sneaking through the crowd and sticking close with one another. People mumbled amongst themselves and looked up to see helga stepping out to the balcony and looked down at the people with menacing eyes.
"SILENCE!" The crowd immediately shuts up and looked up at her.
"As your leader, I have decided that the best way to keep this government together is to abolish the council and replace with our new system." That caused and outraged crowd screaming and going against that idea angrily screaming as they looked up at her. I was angrier then ever. The council was the only thing that was keeping this empire together. They kept the balance of government and democracy together. The council always listened to the people even if the demands were harsh. The council always wanted the best for the government and democracy. Now that they were gone, we don't know what will happen next.
"We have decided to fill in the council with our new system. The system allows us to keep control over government. Meaning we decide for what's best. Any complaints will be subject to arrest."
The crowd slowly when quiet. They seemed fearful of her which they had every right to be fearful. I kept my head down. Then I realize, a pain in my chest. Something is happening in that building. Something horrible. I held my chest with tears in my eyes.
'Where's ryoo?'
