TOWER OF IVÁDIAVARIA'S POVI'm lying on my bed, in my room reading. My window is open, and the moonlight is shining upon the castle roof. It also sneaks into my room through the open window.The book I'm reading is a spell book. I just turned open this page and I haven't read much out of it. I'm sleepy, but the knock on my door widens my eyes, and I sit up —my legs still in my bed, and folded.“Come in Althea!” I say to her and she chuckles as she opens the door and walk in.“How do you do that? I still find it amazing, even as I have known you from when you were a lot younger,” she says, baffled.“It is a gift. I know everyone by their breath, and I can't mistake one's breathe for another,” I say to her and she smiles.“How is sister Nika?” I ask as she sits on my bed.“She’s fine, I believe,” she replies and I nod.“You haven't had any sleep, have you?” She asks and I shake my head. “No, I haven't.” I reply.“Why, what have you been up to?” She asks.“Drawing, I h
MOUNT SICA IASIAS’ POV I open my right eye first and it meets the morning sun. I open the other, and I realize it is morning already after the long sleep I had last night. I look around and I see that I'm still lying on the mountain top, in about the same position I slept. I look to my left and she's not there. She's nowhere at the top of the mountain. I get up quickly and I look down the slope but I still do not see any sign of her. I become so worried and I can only think of climbing down the mountain to search for her. Maybe the witches came back for her or she got lost searching for something. “Reene!” I call and I don't get any response —Climbing down the mountain with both hands. I'm in my human form, and I don't feel the need of a transformation before looking for her. I'm back to the ground, and I decide to walk a distance into the bush as I still don't see any trace of here near the mountain. Walking into the bush, I call again —making sur
TOWER OF LANDIÁLYDIA'S POVIn three days we shall wage a war against the dragons in their own home, Eflie. The eccrifytes, the wild cats and few of my sisters riding on a figan shall rise against them at night and the caves will crumble under the rage the beasts will be summoned.I walk into the hall to join the elders in council. This is my first time entering into this room, and I believe my voice will be heard as I expect. “Good day sisters!” I greet, pulling out the chair and sitting on it. I rest my hand on the top of the round table and I sigh. They all nod, accepting my greetings.“Welcome!” Sister Odessa says to me and I nod.“This is your first day in the council, I assume you have things to say to us about the recent developments about the dragons,” she says to me and I nod. “Sister Odessa, how kind of you,” I say to her —standing up to my feet and placing my hand on the table. “I only have one request. I would like your support, I want you to know th
CAVES OF EFLIEELVIO'S POV It's noon, Dalmatius is sitting on a rock near the waterfall, Domminick is coming out of his cave and I'm sitting under the tree nibbling on an apple. Our attention is drawn to the same direction as we see a girl approaching the caves. Domminick halts, baffled, and I quickly stand to my feet. She's putting on a blue dress, and she's bare footed.“You must be Domminick, and you... Elvio,” she says to us and our brows furrows as we both turn to look at ourselves quickly. We look to her again, baffled.“Who are you, and how do you know our names?” I ask her, and even before she replies, we hear another footstep approaching the caves —causing a distraction, and we both look to see who it is. “Domminick, pluck out my eyes that they may not deceive me,” I mutter in shock of who I see approaching the caves. Dalmatius walks into the midst of the cave from the waterfall and he freezes.“Blind me for I may not see the ghost of a boy whom w
DWELLERS OF THE EASTDAHLIA'S POV It is night, we are still in the wilderness. Elena is sitting in a far distance away from us, and we are all waiting to hear whatever message she'll bring to us. Since we have left Gastrus for dead at the other side of the wilderness, it is my duty to consult her. I keep watching her from a distance until I notice that she is done with meditation, and I walk towards her."Mistress!" I call to her and she turns to me. "The Callibra is about to change hands. The sister of Groilandiá are after it," Elena intones and I nod. "They want us to wait," I say, and she nods. "When shall we move?" I ask and she turns to me. "We move when we are told to, and none shall speak of it till then," She says to me and I nod. We hear a loud cry from a distance within the wilderness and we all stand to our feet. There is only one with that voice whom is within the same wilderness dwell. "Do not give it your ears! It is of the fool we left behind a
CAVES OF EFLIEIASIAS' POVI sit under the tree under the moonlight. Dominick, Elvio, and Dalmatius have long gone into their caves to sleep. Renee is also in the cave Dalmatius showed her.I'm a bit restless, thinking about what Renee said about the witches, and the games they plan on playing with the slaves. It is extremely cold out here, but since I can't find rest in my cave, I prefer to sit outside and cover myself with the blanket Domminick made for me. I hear footsteps and I turn towards the side it's coming from. Renee is the one sauntering towards me, and I can tell the night wind is also harsh on her as she can't stop running her hands through over her arms. She comes to sit by me and I turn to her. "I thought you were asleep," I whisper. "I gave up trying. I can't sleep," she whispers and I turn to her."Why?" I ask and she also turns to me. "Are you bothered by something?" I ask, whispering and she nods -looking down. "Is it something can ta
TOWER OF LIVÁDIAERASTUS’S POV It has been three days since Nasra and I planned to kill Nika, the leader of the coven. We know that the witches would be shaken by her death and it will then give us the opportunity to find an escape route. This very morning, we shall execute our plan. Nasra and one other, the man whom he trusts would be the perfect person we need in order to be complete. Nika would be in her room sleeping by this time of the morning. The witches have some work for the slaves within the inner gate, and there would be no better opportunity than this.While the others would be at work at the store, I, Nasra and Adolfo would be sneaking through the passage to Nika’s room. A witch comes into the yard and snaps her fingers. The effect of this leads to opening of the cages.“Walk by me, let us remain together at all times,” I whisper to Nasra as we walk out amidst 8 other slaves. I pat my belt which is under my shirt twice to make sure that I sti
EFLIELYDIA'S POVI appear in Eflie with and army of eccrifytes. They are about a hundred of them, and two of my sisters also are here with me. It is the night we have all longed for. The night we attack the caves of Eflie, slay the dragons and get hold of the Callibra. “So we are here,” I declare and I turn back to look at my sisters. They both nod, and the army of a hundred eccrifytes growls as they await our command to match into the caves and rip the dragons apart. I see the caves of Eflie before me, beyond the hill which we stand. I can see that a fire had been lit at the midst of the caves —Confirming that the figan which we sent this morning really saw them here. “Gazas!” I shout, stretching my hands forward and causing the eccrifytes to charge forward down the hills and heading for the caves. They is one remaining behind on my command. It will be the one to take us to grab the Callibra when the dragons become distracted by the eccrifytes in a str
