The Alter World Odyssey

Words of Farewell

"Every ending has a new beginning"

His Grandpa had last words. Henry looked into His arms and saw the face of His beloved Grandson looking back at Him with so much innocence, emotion and promise. Henry smiled at the thought of all the wonderful adventures He had taken His Grandson on, with a tired but proud smile. Henry turned to Geo and said His final words;

"Son, you probably won't remember everything I said to you, everything that we did together *cough* and though we're not blood-related I want you to know that I love more than you can ever imagine. I never forgot how wonderful it was to watch you grow, your eagerness to explore, and the light in your eyes. I hope that you will find the missing piece in your life that you have been searching. I want you to become the best of the best version of yourself. I will miss you, but I will always be with you in your ... heart"

Henry squeezed His Grandson's hand tight and with one last look of love and admiration, Henry passed away, leaving the promise of a special bond that had been built by memories that they would both cherish forever.

Geo whispered his last words of love to the man he had come to admire and love so much throughout the years. He softly said

"Grandpa I'm going to miss you so much. You have been with me through all the hard times and all the good times, never once doubting my abilities and encouraging me to do my best. You have taught me so much, teaching me about life, love, and how to be a kind, honest person. Wherever you are now, I hope you are happy, knowing that you're gone can never be forgotten"

He wiped away the tears that kept streaming down his face and realized that his loving grandparent was truly gone, and nothing could ever replace the memories they had shared. Geo was stuck in his position for a long time, because he didn't know what to do next. A few minutes passed when he noticed that there were more people outside the house and Geo realized that he was in a bad situation. he knows that no one will believe him when he tells the story of what happened. so he decided to leave.

" I don't want to be caught not knowing what's going on here, I'll look for the answers first along with finding myself" in Geo's mind.

Geo wrapped His Grandfather in a cloth, he also included their apprentice who died earlier. He brought the katana while carrying His grandfather and the apprentice on his shoulders. He knew right away that he need to honor them properly by finding a place in the forest to give them their final resting place. He searched and researched, trying to find the perfect spot and after a few minutes he eventually stumbled upon a clearing surrounded by a circle of oak trees. It was peaceful and quiet, just as he imagine. After setting up the burial site, Geo said his goodbye to his Grandpa and their apprentice before leaving the clearing. He was relieved to know that he had provided them with a proper burial.

And, He fell asleep not knowing of what's going to happen. His necklace with a key pendant glowed. When he woke up, he was in front of him who introduced himself as "Shia Dowe" on the bus earlier
