Chapter 4

As the years went on, The tower became treacherous. It was because of Jahad. More and more people wanted his control to spread over the whole tower. I knew that people were dying. I wasn’t oblivious to it. How could I be? These are people’s lives we’re talking about. Years and years went by with me trying to convince him to stop this. Then I left. I thought about fighting him, but I couldn’t. I had a treaty with him I couldn’t do it. I would die the moment I touched him. He hasn’t seen me since. I disappeared

Blank. It is all blank now. I can barely piece anything together. I can barely feel anything. My memories are like dreams. I am traveling into my past and it pains me to see it again. It went black. What was I thinking? What did I do?

 I see stones. Stones. Why stones? I try to pull something out of my head. It is blank. A white canvas. I stand up. I can’t even pull up my age. All I know is my name. Nillian. Why? I honestly have no idea. I cut my hand on something sharp. I look to see what it was and I see three gems. Blue, green, and purple. I picked them up and brought them with me. All I saw was stones. For hours I walked and I saw brown rock everywhere. I finally found a shaft of light. I took stones around me and made a pile up to it. When I squeezed through the hole, I saw a bustling city around me. The stones I of course still had in my hand. They began to glow the moment the light hit them. Not just shining, full on glowing! They began to twist and turn around me. I heard people talking. I saw a memory. A girl was running. She heard voices in her head. The same voices that I heard then. She was running from people. Up ahead there were more. The memory ended. I could tell it was a memory. Only a memory feels like that. Not like I had much experience with them. Three girls appeared. I recognized two. I don’t know where, but I know I have seen them before. The third, I couldn’t tell who she was if my life depended on it. They were there for a second, and then they disappeared. Faded away. I knew they were still with me.
