Falling through the sky, Aiden felt his head spin. His mind lost focus for a moment.
As he spun through the air, he opened his eyes to see the person who had slammed into him.Quick description: slim figure covered in a black hood.A hood that made the figure look like a shadow in the night sky. For some reason, the moon was no longer obscured, and it shone down brightly.Soon, he tumbled into a position where he was looking at the water beneath. He hurriedly positioned himself to dive into the water, legs first.As he held his arms to his body to reduce his surface area, he noticed that the figure in a hood was still flailing in the air.He couldn't think about this before he splashed into the water.Sinking into the water rapidly, he felt the force of the waterfall that was pouring into the water not too far away.This helped immensely as the water pushed him upward. Slowly he swam to the surface.As soon as his head got free of the water's su

It was early in the morning when Aiden opened his eyes. The light from the moon had dimmed down considerably as its position was no longer overhead.They say that 'it is darkest just before dawn, and compared to the bright night prior, at that moment, it really was darker.Nothing much had changed in the time he took a nap. Aside from the fire that went out, the only difference was Princess Diane who was sleeping not too far away. She had the same blanket he left her covering her.After spacing out for a second, he got to his feet and walked off.His walk was not without purpose because he came back not long after with some more dry wood, and water in a container, as well as some fish.She was sitting when he came back. She said nothing and he didn't as well.In that silence, he made a fire, cleaned the fish, and began roasting it. He had no salt or spices to add to the fish, so he cooked it as it were.It did not take long to get this done, however, he cooked all the fish he caught.

They dusted off their clothes as they stood up. He looked up just in time to see the floor they fell through mend itself.The fall wasn't a long one, which meant, there were only a few bruises to be seen.They had barely collected themselves when the fire flared up around them. The fire came from torches that illuminated the space.The space was a small circular room and it had nothing in it except for the doors that lined every wall. Counting from left to right, there were nine doors in the room."What now?"Aiden did not give a response because his focus was on the floor beneath their feet. She noticed where his attention was focused and looked down.There were engravings on the ground, marking each section of an engraved circle. All the sections were equal in size, and there were in total, twelve of them."What language is this?", He asked Zarek["That is a very old language. It is the identifying language of a very old organization. It's been lost since the sealing of the World Ea

"Think it through?""We managed a win there, however, who knows what we will have to fight next?""I understand"Following this response, Aiden sat on the ground with his back to the wall and closed his eyes."What are you doing?"Before he could even sort through his thoughts, she interrupted him."I memorized it... I'm trying to think of the best solution"As soon as he gave his response, he looked away and closed his eyes. Diving into his subconscious, his destination was the library replica. He planned to find anything that was related to the organization Zarek told him about. The ones who used these symbols for communication.The saving grace here was the library's quick search feature that could find all materials relating to a particular topic.Keyword: Secret organization—The number of aged scrolls he got this time was more than the normal books. Still, there were a lot of them he'd have to go through, enough to bury him in reading for weeks."That's a lot more than I expect

The hall was long, something they found when the light from the torches lit it up completely.The spot where the floor fell in was at one end of the hall, and off in the distance, they saw what looked like a round table with high chairs surrounding it.Slowly, the two walked down the hall toward the round table.It was a round table that looked so ancient that it felt like it would fall apart at any moment.Surprisingly, it was clean, dust free despite the weathered look.The chairs had regal looks to them. In their time, they were crafted to be luxurious, and this fact was still evident from a single look at them.This round table had twelve chairs around it. Each had a symbol engraved on the chair."What do you think it is—""What do you think it is—"These questions were directed in the order: Princess Diane asked Aiden the question while Aiden asked Zarek the same question at that exact moment.["It's a round table"], Zarek responded after a startled pause."I know that it's a rou

"What is insight?", Aiden asked Zarek in his thoughts.["You have work to do, but thankfully, you have experienced what insight can be"]"What are you talking about?"["You told me about your experience in a chaotic space. You mentioned that at the end of the experience, you could predict things without thinking. Your ability to go through that minefield became instinctual, that was the effect of insight"]"Oh... So that's all I have to do to leave this place? I just need to get in that state again?"["Yes, but I wouldn't advise that you just brute force your way through like that"]"What do you mean?"["I mean that the feeling you experienced then is only the first step in gaining insight.Insight in itself is more of a measure of how well you understand your element. It quantifies how much control you have over it.Do you remember that stat most Arcanas forget?"]Aiden tried to think of some metric he heard of for grading Arcanas that ended up not being used for anything.As he went

"Orla... Go get them some soup", she said to her daughter."You can sit, for now, sir. The farm belongs to my daughter and me. No one will disturb you", she said to Aiden who was grimacing.Aiden listened to her and with her help, he sat on the ground.It did not take long for the girl to come out with some soup in two plates... She placed them on the ground in front of Aiden."Thank you", he said to her.He moved over to Princess Diane and raised her to a sitting position.She still couldn't move, so he had to support her in that position. He planned to feed her first before eating, however, she kept her mouth shut.The situation quickly became awkward. A situation where a woman and her child watched two strangers act like a brother and his bratty little sister.Aiden noticed this quickly, and the woman also felt the awkwardness, so she held her daughter and they walked away, heading back to the small building not too far away."Your Highness, we have no idea where we are, what day i

The prince sat back and crossed his legs. As he did this, he kept his eyes on Adrian who stood waiting for a response.He eventually nodded and Prince Adrian sat down. Princess Caitlyn was right beside him to deal with whatever he was feeling at that moment."I called you all here today to inform you that Master Harisinh will be making an appearance at The Selection"From the moment, he said Master Harisinh, murmurs had started. The reason the party was called had finally come to light."I am sure you all know Lord Ajax. He was named The Keeper of Time, the head of all keepers..."Many heads were nodding in response to this statement."I believe you also know a rumor that Lord Ajax was a student of Master Harisinh before he left on his journey?"Another round of affirmative nods appeared. However, what the Prince said next sent a wake of silence through all of them."I believed it as well... But, father told me the story of how Lord Ajax, in his younger years was corrected on a single

"What?!"She was baffled by his statement for a moment. At that moment, she was the typical example of a person who would ask for the truth with no intention to hear it."Oh my dear Princess, if only you would calm yourself down when a problem arises, like earlier today..."Her face scrunched up immediately after she heard that. Aiden paused for a moment when he saw that expression before clearing his throat and continuing his statement."...like earlier today when I invaded your privacy. I did not mean to do it and I was only here to call you. Dinner was ready and you'd been here since morning"Her expression eased up a tiny bit in that instant while Aiden drew a deep breath. "You could have hurt Mrs. Smith and her daughter. I know I made a mistake, adding it to the list of my punishment is not too hard I presume"She gave a wicked smirk before saying in a low voice, "oh, you are definitely getting punished"Aiden heard this but he wasn't bothered by it. All he did was ask the quest
