We were currently sitting on the balcony waiting for the servants to bring some cooling tea and snacks.
“It’s so hot” I moan while fanning my face, I look up from my dying position and see that Chance was also dying.
“How is it this hot, when we have the cooling spell on us” I ask Aenon who was currently guarding us. I looked up to see a small bit of sweat drip from his forehead.
“Why don’t you have a break?” I ask with a cheesy smile, he looks at me with an eyebrow raised but before he could say no I mouthed to him ‘I’m going to give him his present’. This made him stop in his tracks and nodd in compliance, now leaving and entering the castle, we were alone.
“Chance” I smiled brightly towards him while getting out of my seat, he looked my way to acknowledge that I have his attention. Walking into the inside area I grab the heavy box and hold it out in front of me for him to see. Moving the netting that was dangling from the door I watched as his ears burned red.
“What’s that?” He asks while fidgeting in his seat, I smirk while sitting back in my seat and placing the box on the table.
“Open it” I smirk while fanning myself once again. I watched as he hesitated but opened it anyway. Flipping the lid his eyes shine at the sight of the sword.
“Amaris…” he struggles to say my name as he drops his head.
“The sword has a Lava crystal embedded into it, so if you hold it will become the ancient Yōgan sword. It’s my gift to you, for being a really good friend to me” I smiled brightly towards him, I watched as small tears dropped onto his hands as he hung his head, before I could say anything else in an instant I felt small arms wrap around me and a head nuzzle into my neck.
“Amaris, thank you. Thankyou for everything” he whimpers, I decided to stroke his hair to calm him down, which it did.
“Stop being a cry baby! Hold the sword, I want to see it transform!” I clap now pulling him away from me, one of the main reasons was because the heat from his hug made me feel warm.
Walking over he carefully lifts the sword from the box and instantly a red and yellow glow surrounds them both. I watched as the mist traveled up around him, almost like it was inspecting him. The glow intensified on the sword and started to move and change shape. I watched as it shrunk and became fitting for his height and weight.
As the glow disappeared and the sword was completed, I looked in awe as Chance swung it around trying to come to terms with the feeling.
“The Yōgan sword possesses the power of Lava, so maybe if you train hard enough it will let you use it” I giggled while I looked at his bright features.
“I need to give you something!” Chance yells while putting the sword back into the overly large box now.
“Chance you do not need to gift me anything, this is something I wanted to do and I wanted you to have” I smile now getting up from my seat. I walk over and grab his hand and smile.
“Let’s go eat”
…..
Five months later
In these last five months I have grown with my magic and learnt more about the country. I've grown closer to everyone including Meena, she’s currently training in the knight order with Cove, she wanted to become my personal assistant which father agreed to. Me and Altan have turnt five and I’ve finally started Growing and enjoying my time in this world. All though, I keep having these nightmares, it’s about a woman calling out to me, I can’t really understand it but I hope it will stop soon.
“Amaris let’s take Mura out for a walk!” Altan smiles towards me brightly, we were currently lounging around in my bedroom trying to find something to do.
“Amaris!” I hear a voice shout out to me, looking up from my book I notice Meena standing by the door, wearing a beautiful golden dress.
“Want to join us for a walk?” I smile at her, now finally putting my book down and standing up, I grab Altans hand and walk towards her, she blushed slightly. Ever since we rescued her we’ve been together whenever she’s not training.
I grabbed her hand as she was hesitant and dragged them both towards the outside area.
“Where is he?” Altan asks, confused as to where Mura could be. Suddenly hearing the larger sounds of feet running towards us we all turn and watch Mura bulldozing our way.
“Mura stop!” I yell out. He instantly listens and stops in his tracks. He has grown so big these past months I’m surprised if he could get any bigger.
“Sit” I command to which he instantly follows. Altan and Meena rush over to his side to stroke him. I’m happy being here, but in my heart I know that there’s something I crave more.
…..
“Hello there! Would you like something to eat?” I hear a woman's voice speak as I watch her talk to the animals around her. As I stepped closer to her I stood on a twig which made her jump, for some reason she had her back to me so I couldn’t see her face. All I could notice was long off brown coloured hair.
“Why have you come here?” She comments still not facing my way.
“I think I’m in a dream” I replied back to her while taking a step closer to the water. She hesitates to answer.
“You keep seeking for something” she added which made me flinch.
“You wish to finally rest and leave this world”
I’m not sure what is happening but this woman keeps appearing in my dreams, I need to figure out who she is.
“Do you want to know the reason why this has happened to you?” She comments again but now standing up from the water, I watched as the cold water dripped back down.
“You know why this happened to me!” I exclaim as I take a step towards the water, as I did that my foot got stuck and it instantly started sucking me under.
“If you wish to find the answers you seek. Remember who you were” she replies now walking away.
“Wait!” I struggle as I’m getting dragged deeper into the water. I watched as she slowly walked away from my view and I started drowning in the depths of this unknown dream.
As my eyes are closed I feel a warm feeling around my body, I have the feeling of lightness, as if I was floating in a pile of clouds.
“I love you •••••” a man's voice speaks, my body is so relaxed that I couldn’t open my eyes, all I could do was listen.
“I love you too ••••. We shall soon welcome our children” she exclaims.
‘Children?’
“••••• I’m sorry! I’m sorry I didn’t mean to do this! WHY! WHY HAS THIS HAPPENED!” The man screams in pain. His words cut my heart into shreds.
“You took her away from me, but you did not count the fact I could never live without her” he mumbles soullessly, I heard the sound of the sword, before a deep cut was made, slowly followed by a thud.
“Be aware of the dreamer. Wander you need to wake up! The dreamer can see your dreams!!” A voice screams which instantly makes me jump up in bed.
Touching my face to remember the feeling of reality I let out a big huff.
‘The dreamer can see my dreams?’ I question. Being unable to sleep, I get up from my bed and make my way towards the balcony. I looked up at the stars that covered the heated sky.
‘I wonder what Chance is doing?’
