“Look at what
you have done!” states the only other lady adorned in square jewels.
She stands out only because unlike most around her who are dresses in what I
believe to be grey . the other characters who are essential to the plot all
wear distinct shaped jewels each a bit different than the rest.
“What I did!?” states a boy in a star shaped pin across from her.
“Yes! You the one who dares to stand here . before us! Do you think yourself
worthy of such a place? You have never belonged among us . you never will!”
states the man in a tringle shaped pin who stands next to lady with square jewelry.
“I never failed! The ones who failed were you!! ALL OF YOU!!!” screams the boy
with a star . he stands there before all the rest, in his hand holding a young
girl in a black dress . . her dress is definitely black . this the only thing I am
certain of.
“Get your hands off of her!” so then begin to chant all those within the crowd.
“Traitor.” a few scream.
“Leave for good now!” others exclaim.
“Unlike your parents you are unworthy of your place. You should never have been
given such a tittle if this is what you were to become all along.” all become
silent as the man with the triangle pin shouts this out.
His parents . . he in deed seem to deserve all the things they had said. However . I could not help but to realize . though the story in part was true, the only reason this scene fit was because of the fact that they left out several other scenes that now could only make the boy with the star seem as though he was a true villain. So far this “villain” had been depicted as a self-centered person who got what he wanted whenever he wanted. Talented was a way one could describe him . . but he was not at all loyal. Though the story itself centered around the girl in the black dress, the fact that she had now been effectively removed from the plot from this point on allowed for the rest of the characters to interact more with each other.
Suddenly within that silence a group of people formed behind the “villain” these characters however were dressed in brown and a few were wearing a silver and gold like color. It was then that everyone stayed still, and all actually bowed to them. The “villain” then gave her to one wearing the silver and she was then taken elsewhere. Now that I think about it the only reason I knew this . was because of the way the characters behaved towards them.
“You all dare
to become vile the instant you lose your acknowledgment of your place!” screams
one among those in gold.
“Greed is not suitable for any who rule. Yet you all dare too.” states another
who is adorned in gold.
“From this point on . . you will know your place! There are rules in place .
one of our own will take the place of the one in absence of . ” states one in
gold as he began to point to one of the ones that wore silver.
“YOU DARE TO!!! How dare you disrespect her. Her last order was given. One was
placed to oversee everything in her absence.” the “villain” states
interrupting.
“And who is this one being who was given such authority?” now asks one in
silver.
“I. I am the one who was given such task!” scream the “villain”.
“That is not true . no such order was given!” states the man with the triangle
pin.
“That is true. Before all this . there had been no order.” states the lady with
square jewels.
“Take him!” states one in gold point at the “villain”.
As soon as the silver ones get close to him one of them is drawn to the clock he wears. When he takes it and it is then that the villain begins to scream for its return to him . . panicked. Suddenly a recoding is played from within the room and the girl that had been taken now stood before them above sitting upon her throne . . she then stood and began to walk toward them. As she did all she had to say was that the “villain” had been the one she had chosen as the one to take her place . this . . silenced all. However, the manner in which he said that almost permitted him to sit on the throne. Toward the end however a seat was made below determining where his place would be. To everyone’s surprise he was placed below and before the throne a simple seat one not even fit for those who rule. The “villain” then took his place and when that occurred, she stood behind him. She ordered them all to bow after he had taken his place. All did and now they knew the reason the purpose on his place no matter how low they usually bowed now they literally needed to kneel because the authority he presented was her own and none could ever dare to disrespect her not even those in gold and silver.
It was then that all turns dark. The end . . for now. The books I had read when I was much younger hardly ever crossed my mind now . but when I was younger I had been very interested in it . . so much so that I had made for me a collection of figures. Though before I could finish reading all the books I had begun my lectures and completely forgotten about it. At that time . . there really was no time for anything else other than to study and practice. . . that and the last books that followed it were actually not yet available for anyone to read.

“It is time
to leave.” I state as I turn to Ethan.
It is now that I notice he was fast asleep. I suppose he either disliked the
play or he is actually simply not found of them because they are not
interesting enough.
“Did he fall asleep as soon as the play began or was it just towards the end?”
I question as I look to his attendant.
“He is fond of plays, but he has been exhausted since he has been unable to get
proper sleep. However, he was awake throughout most of the play.”
“Was the room not to his liking?”
“I would not know? Though he must have just been uncomfortable with the fact
that he was resting in a room with a large window . . he had a bad experience
once when he was much younger and as such, he dislikes such places. Although he
is not someone who would easily say anything that could inconvenience anyone.”
“I see. Well . then I suppose we can arrange for him to move then. While we
look for a more suitable place for Ethan to sleep, tomorrow . Valix . make sure
you prepare everything since I have decided to take another room as well.”
“Yes.” answers Valix
“Will he wake up soon?”
“He will more than likely not wake up.” states Ethan’s attendant.
Suddenly Ethan wakes up and is startled at the fact that the play had ended.
“What?” is all he says as he stands to look at the stage now empty and dark.
He then turns to me and I suppose it is then
that he is hit by the realization that I had been waiting for him to wake up.
It is then he begins to apologize, and I cannot help but to simply ask him if
he was now ready to leave. Once he said he was we leave and head back. As we
had begun to move I realized that we were not headed back to rest . . instead
we were going elsewhere . or maybe we were simply just going thru a different
path than the one we had originally taken here.
. . .
Though it was already beginning to get dark as soon as we arrive, I am sure
that Xy prepared everything so that I and Ethan eat our meals together. Good
thing Valix prepared a set of masks because otherwise I would need to fully
remove my mask when eating. From what I see Ethan seems very uncomfortable
being around me.
“Ethan make sure that you are ready Xy has already
made preparations for dinner.”
“Yes.”
“Also, tomorrow we will explore around and as such you will be able to choose a
room that is more to your liking. Make sure that you have your attendant
preparer everything. I will arrange for one of my own to assist you as well
while you are here too so that you are able to explore on your own when in your
free time.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
“Very well. You may go.”
Ethan then bows and takes his leave . . sighing I am now able to think one
thought . I am finally able to go my own way.
. .
As I walk back, I realized two things I once again pass by the very first
garden I ever visited in this place. Again, there are several who go across and
wander without much care of others. Now however . whenever I pass by they all
bow as they should and leave . . just as the rules have always been. It is now
that I am able to see that those who care for the garden have either been
punished or simply replaced since they have begun to look as they should have
always been meant to be. However I can not help but feal lost when I realize
that I am unable to see the color each holds. As this though emerges, I quickly
chose to move on and leave. I suppose Valix is surprised by this since he then
asks if something is wrong. My only response being simply to answer no. All the
while in my head making a whole conversation of it. Now that I am finally
surrounded by silence my thought are unsettled each idea crossing through it
disappearing as quickly as it came but it is almost like they are screaming.
Scream within yelling . “Yes!” . . everything is wrong! My eyes that have once
seen true now lack what I once never truly though I would ever miss. The color
that each flower held demonstrated the manner in which life seemed to brim for
each and every single one of them . even when simply taking a glance at their
very existence. It all seemed lost . . I felt like if could choose I would
rather feal not a thing. Even now there are no words that can actually describe
it. The lack of words or rather my inability to determine exactly what it is I
am feeling is what has always assured me that none of it real. Yet, even I know
that if it is not true then it must not exist and so this is exactly what I can
not help but to simple destroy every time I believe to experience more than I
know.
“I am their son. I am strong. Above all I am the one who has been granted
permission to learn . just like my father . . how to rule. One that rules can
not break and may never doubt oneself.” Valix has always said that
demonstrating one’s emotions is a way in which a person is able to exhibit the
weakness they hold. He is right . but the only question I have is . . . then is
it alright to still feal emotion. To leave yourself vulnerable to the world
that will one day consume you. Right now, as it always has been emotions have
always been a hindrance. As such this was the reason I had for so long not
permitted myself to not feal much of anything. At first it was apparently
difficult. But now I do not recall why it was so. Would I actually break if I
felt such things . just . . just like the girl in the play. The girl in the
play the one in the black dress had permitted herself to be guided by a world
with emotions and yet she broke. Which was quite contrary to the actual overall
depiction within that story. Emotions had made her stronger and yet when it
became much to difficult it was those very emotions the ones that cause her to
not only fall but as well . . even if it was just an instance . . to fail and
break. I know I must never break. I too will one day rule like father does now.
Yet, he himself displays no emotions around others . that is of course
excluding mother. For now . I cannot decide what exactly it is I should do. I
will however . . at least for now . I will continue to refrain from thinking
these ideas as I should have done in the first place.
. . .
I can hear them approach the entrance of the room. Soon it opens and it is Xy .
again.
“All the preparations are complete. Your parents will be leaving on a trip.
They will leave soon . currently they are preparing to depart as we speak.”
“Is dinner ready?”
“It will soon be ready.”
“Very well. Ethan will come along to see my parents off.”
“Yes. Should l notify him as well.”
“No. I will go get him and then head to my parents before dinner.”
