We get down from the cruce and crossed the dock until we arrieved to a green country side that looked like a kingdom of the fifteen century. There was a castle made of stone built  at the edge  of the cliff around it I could see a lot of green hills and cows eating grass in the more plain areas.

Some of the passengers were taking pictures infront of the castle and Scarlet said she wanna wait until it was clear to have a selfie but Touya said we didn’t have time and that we must find someone to ask them if they knew a celt descentdant around here.

I tell them that according to my phone the Helvetti   were known for been a peaceful  tribe that used to lived near the Rin river that crosses France and other countries member of the European Union.

—Then we came to the wrong place—complains Scarlet.

—Not necessarily, the Rin river ends in the northern sea and I am pretty sure they emigrated around Great Britain. They were nomads so.

—Arya is right,  all Europe pretty much was the home of  celts tribes.

—Well, the better way is asking. Let's find a shop or something.

The sun was shining brightly and all my clothes was soaking, this is not the weather should be in Ireland.

We follow  a pavement road across the green areas until we reached to a small town looked like taken out from a story book. People were gathering around some bazars buying all kind of stuff. Touya said it would be better if we camp outside of town so he will go and buy some tents and meanwhile we must ask in the bazar for information so we will meet in this point in half and hour.

Scarlet gave me her air compressor gun and told me that use it carefully, we don’t wanna cause a scandal in this city and went south.

I stopped in a book store when suddenly my mom text me she has trasfer me some many into my digital bank account, one that didn’t require a real card but just pass my phone.

The books were in Celtic called my attention and even I could not understand the language I liked the prehistoric pictures that seem to show how they used to lived in the old days.

I said to myself that a good approach for entering in a conversation with a Celt would show them I know a bit of their story and maybe that would make them more open to collaborate so I bought the book. Suddenly, I remember again when  I was writing the book but this time was different. I was holding a strange necklace that looked homemade  with a black tree printed into a circle made of wood and then a bright white line blind the screen of the computer.

—Excuse me, can you tell me what is this symbol

 I drew it and the man tells me  it was a sacred symbol for the celts, it represents the connection between three worlds. Hell, heaven and the real world. He adds that there was a legend that there was a four world which only a chosen person could enter. Someone that was not from this world and who has celt blood. I froze, there was no doubt that person must be me.

—I see you are interested. Your eyes say  it everything.

—Can this person create chaos is this world?

—Yes. That is why we must kill her.

Someone put a bag in my face, I shout  and I heard someone was dragging me. All I heard was a door close and I let my self  be absorbed by the darkness that surrounded me.

As soon as someone took the bag I find myself in front of some creepy people wearing a white robe and a hoodie that couldn’t let me see their faces. One of the was holding a wooden rod  with the symbol of my necklace. Suddenly,  a spark grow in his palm and he got it closer to my face making the spark become bigger. I could feel the warmth of the fire slowly burning my skin and the sweat started running through my cheek.

—There is no doubt, she is the Peace Maker.

I heard people  whispering.

—Litsen everyone, please bow  to our maiden.

His voice sounded  old and demanding.

Like if I was a princess, everyone knelt to the grown.

—We are counting on you, our dear maiden.

—Wait, I don’t understand. Werent you supposed to kill me ?

—That was before we were sure you were our maiden —said the old man—. You see, our ancestors left a prophecy in a scroll. It said that a girl from another world would come and stop the main conflict of the book. However,  as soon she entered the book. It will put a curse on the Peace Maker. She would die when the last page turned black.

—We have discovered that our power of the elements can slow the curse and that had allow us to win someday til your arrival—Says a young voice.

—Our tribe believes that if you master the four elements you may beat the curse of the book without needing to solve the conflict of the book. If you use the power of nature you may be able to defeat the curse.

Great. If my original task seem easy now this sounds impossible.

—But I can’t stay. I have to return with the Starlight Corporation.

—Girl, What is your name?—The leader asked.

—Arya.

—Arya, do you know what Witterby is planning?

—He wants to prevent blood groups to dissapear.

—Is true, but years ago he sent one of his employee dressed as a doctor and cause abortion in several women. Then he used the fetus to analyze their blood. Our men discover that man was named Touya.

My eyes opened wide. I couldn’t believe that Touya would be capable of such a thing, the one that risked his life for me so I told me that was all a lie. But the man said I would discover the truth sooner or later and that I would remain here until I master the four elements. Then, he called someone named  Keiran who took of his hoodie and reveal being a thirty three years old man with brown eyes and long blond hair.

—His family was the first druid to master the  four elements. But the Peace Maker is stronger than any of us as was chosen by our gods.

A young voice coming from the distance called Keiran. It was a young boy of around eleven years old with blond hair and blue eyes. He looked terrified.

—Master, Kreitarah has managed to re built the remaining part of the scroll. It says that the old demon Akerak has escaped from the Second World and have possessed the book.

Keiran face became pale.

—That is impossible, our ancestors defeated him years ago.

—Is true, and as soon he erased people he would have enough strength to send an army or revive.

—Gather the other  maidens, we need to cast a barrier.

—Let me help.

I almost fainted when I saw the lightkeeper.

—You are from the Cantii tribe. The one betrayed the Celtic Union. What are you doing here ?—The leader asked bitterly.

— I have been expelled from my tribe by failing in killing Arya but now that I have heard she is the Peace Maker I wanna help.

—Why should we trust you?

—Because even if we belong to different tribes. We don’t want our people to dissapear, I heard using the elements you can slow down the curse. If we manage the other tribes to collaborate we will win time until Arya master them and defeat Akerak

—Fine. But we will treat you as a suspect, one move and you will be taken as a hostage.

—Thanks. But I have a favor to ask, I need my tribe to relocate here so Cosmo don’t take revenge against them because I have betrayed them.

—Very well. Tell them that we will received them in 2 hours, I need to inform my people.

The leader tells me that I will remain as Keiran house and we will start our training tomorrow morning. Then, the rest of the druids started to walked towards the forest.

—Follow me—said Keiran.

We walked far away from the oak and  into the opposite direction than the celts went. We walked down a hill and I noticed a pretty small cottage made out of stone with a roof built up of straw.

—Is so pretty.

—I am glad you like it, Druids like to live in harmony with nature so we don’t like big houses.

I learned at school that druid were  priest and the rest of them were just called Celts.

A woman of forty one years old with black hair and green eyes was cooking in a pan some eggs and as soon as Keiran called her darling she looked at us asking who I was. Kerain explained that I was the Peace Maker and that Criatius has asked him so trained me to defeat Akerak. The woman pan fell down and the eggs smashed in the  floor.

—So he is back

—Unfortunately yes, but she will defeat him.

—Keiran, I know you believe in the prophecy but nothing guarantees she will be able to.

—She will. Can you serve us some food?

The woman put a   plate with some soup and potatoes.During the dinner Keiran told him about everything had happened but I got distracted when I heard the fire of the chimney made some noise.

I know that Touya must be looking for me  but I am sure he will find me sooner or later. I went to my backpack and realised I had lost it again, those men must have took it from me. So, I am a hostage after all just as this boy.

After dinner the woman named Mei lead me to a simple room in the second floor and took a pijama from the drawers.

She told me that druids don’t like using lights in the house so that I should rely on the matches were under my pillow to turn on the candle.

—Breakfast is at seven. I will warm you the bath ten minutes before.

The women left the room and I laid over the bed.
