"What is this place, Emery? From outside, I can't sense anything, but here… The spirit reading was off the charts."
Klea's eyes were twinkling with excitement. She was unable to believe such a place existed in their world. Exotic animals with bright, beautiful colors roam the place; she looked to the side right as a small, silver-furred animal ran past them, before disappearing into the bushes. Everything was new and every few steps, she took the time to stop and examine the plants she had never seen before.
She grew up in the Library of Alexandria, the center of the world's knowledge and research. She was sure no such place existed in this world, but today she was proven wrong.
The two walked together across the bridge and stood in front of the tree.
Right as they arrived, Klea saw the sleeping monstrous bear-like creature with plants on its back. It was lying down right at the base of the tree.
Emery was about to look at Klea and assure her to not be afraid, only to see her staring at the creature.
"Awwwww… That is the cutest thing I have ever seen… Can I touch him, or her? Can I?"
Before Emery was able to explain what the creature actually was, she approached forward excitedly and stopped right in front of it.
When she was merely a few steps away from the creature, Artio opened its eyes.
"Hi, my name is Klea, what is your name?"
AdvertisementsArtio stretched its body lazily, stood up and approached her, before sniffing close at her.
"Artio? That's a very beautiful name." Klea petted the bear's neck and it leaned to her touch, a sure sign it was enjoying the act. He smiled and watched her play with the bear. This was definitely one of the most amazing things Klea has done in front of him.
A few minutes passed, before Klea turned around in response to spirit energy moving behind her. Groups of glowing dew appeared and coalesced together, turning into a humanoid form. Even from afar, Emery could tell the High Priestess was talking to Klea through her mind.
Klea stared at the High Priestess, before she nodded and walked closer to the tree with outstretched hands. Just like him before, she touched the tree with the tip of her fingers.
Right then, Emery knew Gaia had something to show her as well. When the High Priestess started talking into his mind, his suspicions were only confirmed.
"Emery… This girl… She has the most wonderful light inside of her. I can sense that Gaia was glad for the opportunity to finally meet her."
Deep down, Emery smiled in approval. From the first time he met her, and even today, he couldn't stop being amazed by this girl. She was smart, beautiful and amazingly talented, but most importantly, she was curious and brave.
He could only stare at the beautiful girl in front of him, but he was forced to turn away when he remembered about Morgana. He decided to ask the High Priestess about her current situation.
"We have told you, Emery, the girl has her own path and she has gone to seek the answers pertaining our origins."
"Origins?" Emery glanced at the High Priestess in disbelief. "What does it mean? Why is it important?"
"Be patient, for the answers will come to you soon enough."
Upon hearing that vague answer, Emery rolled his eyes in disdain. It's another one of those riddles that couldn't be answered. Unable to accept such an answer, he was about to inquire further, but right as he was about to speak, he heard a scream from Klea.
Shocked, his body reacted before his mind could catch up. He quickly jumped towards her and pulled on the back of her clothes, stopping her hand from touching the tree.
Her body was trembling slightly and her face pale, but when she realized Emery had came for her, she looked back and smiled.
"What happened?" Emery asked.
Klea was silent for a moment, but she nodded at him and answered. "Just a little bit surprised… I am fine."
Seeing she was alright, Emery was relieved. It was then he heard another whisper from the priestess.
"Have a good journey, Emery."
The whisper from the priestess echoed in his mind, before the glowing figure made of dew broke away and flew back into the depths of the forest.
They walked out of the forest and, as Emery opened a [Spatial Gate] for her to the estate, he asked again about what vision Gaia showed her.
Klea then talked about the burning tree that she saw, the screams of pain and the smell of ash from every direction.
It appears to be the exact same vision that Emery had, but she appeared to not receive any image of the sword.
"What did you see other than that, actually?"
Klea, yet again, just showed him her signature beautiful smile without answering his question. It appeared she hid something from him and didn't wish to share it. Instead, she talked about how the priestess told her about the journey to the east.
"Isn't this a welcome coincidence, Emery? We can go right away! You and me together."
Hearing that, does makes Emery happy. But then he turned quiet for several seconds, he was reminded about Gwen and how he wished she could come along.
"Klea, you don't mind if someone else comes along for the ride, won't you?"
Klea narrowed her eyes, Emery could only wince in response. She was a smart girl, there was no way she did not realize the implication of Emery's question.
Deep down, she wanted to say, "Anyone except that girl!" But she swallowed down her anger and said. "Of course, Emery! The more the merrier for us."
Emery thanked her and asked her to wait for a few days. At least, that is the time Gwen asked him to wait.
"Alright then, 5 days!" Klea answered. "More than that, we are leaving, no matter what you say, agreed?"
"Agreed" Emery nodded.
Klea and Emery rested in the estate and the next day, Klea spent some time in the forbidden forest with the fey girls. She did promise to teach them elemental magic, after all.
AdvertisementsAs for Emery, he spent his days in the estate, waiting for Gwen while he continued his cultivation.
Emery does wonder if 5 days will be enough. Will she be here by then?
