Chapter 28: Secretaries

[Who is writing to us at the invisible barrier?]

I chirped in Ratava's direction, whose image was becoming even less clear with each passing moment before the human could ask another question. He looked at me with a surprised look, but also intrigued by my question.

*'Secretaries'*

It said without hesitation and without going any further.

"Secretaries? What are they? What do they do?" The human kept trying to ask what he answered, but the figure didn't answer. We both realized that this is the last question they know and it just stands in front of them and begins to fade in front of us until it disappears without saying anything.

It didn't exactly help us understand what exactly was going on and as it pointed out, it was gone before we knew it.

"Great! That really didn't help as much as I had hoped from your not-bad question for a change" He began to move sideways in the dark room looking back at the wall of information.

"The Secretaries or whoever is writing to us, probably wants us not to know about them. We'll ask Ravata when it comes back, if at all."

He kept touching the wall of information, trying to see if he could do anything while we waited, but unflinchingly I sat down and closed my eyes like the outside body apparently does.

The more I try to understand what is happening outside and here, the more I feel lost. It brings me back to the same point when I first came here to the same dark room that I have been in ever since and then he has been in until now. The sight of nothing before, that I couldn't do anything any more than now, now that I think about it, it felt familiar.

"Open your eyes"

I hear the human whispering to me while I am lost in my thoughts for a moment and with him I open them and see him standing in front of me, pointing to the invisible barrier that started to write us something. As has already become a habit, I approached the inscription that began to whiten and try to understand.

"Looks like they finally decided"

I look and start reading what they wrote to us:

----------------------------------------

Re-evaluation is complete!

It was decided because of the unclear situation, that this body known as '----' can continue to exist in the current space without further problems, according to what was decided.

List of decisions:

* Leaving this body in the "unknown" species definition, since it has no equivalent in Gladea until it is described differently by its inhabitants.

* Age change to 30 days old.

* Body growth according to current rate updated to 100%. It means that this body is mature enough to take on another growth option path. Unfortunately - there is no possible growth direction in the current situation. Please wait patiently until recalculation. Estimated until a decision is made - Eternal, due to the "Exalted" title effect.

* Karma changed from 4 negative to 10 negative. Possible effect - none.

* HP and Stamina will be reset to full.

* Due to the title effect "Heir of Vyu'argani" - the ability to link between Spirit and supernatural beings and the ability to use them linked within a part of the "Avatar" ability - a limit has been removed.

* Activating a counter-reaction due to a balance disorder - information about the 'laws of the world' is not accessible to this entity, until further notice.

* Due to the title effect "Exalted", the growth option path "One with the Forest" (past), and the ability "Avatar", a barrier between species has been removed. The ability 'Telepathy' has been added.

* The title "Hungry Eyes" has been added. Outside forces have set their sights on you. You are a target.

This sums up his entire decision.

This entity will begin to receive its awareness back on this world space in a few moments.

I hope you are now happy about what you did. You got off cheap I would say, but only time will tell. Survive until then and don't cause any more problems.

It is an order.

----------------------------------------

We both looked at the same captions. It's a long list they gave us. Too long, again.

"What they think there, the secretaries there, those who are not there, they have quite a few things to say about what happened"

I look at him while he spoke, and with a line of thought that struck me in his words, I begin to address him:

[What things exactly happened that caused this decision?] I tweeted.

He looked at me with my questions and started to open his mouth before he didn't make a sound, lost in thought.

"Now that you say that, what exactly did I do?" He said this is trying to think about answering my question

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

[What exactly happened there? You don't remember what you did there?]

"I remember doing something that is why you came back to open your mouth, I know it is, but for some reason, I don't remember what I did. The last thing I remember is a foreign voice started talking to me and then I'm next to you" he said this in a very normal way.

[Who is this voice?]

He started to move his mouth but nothing came from him. Then he looks at me, before continuing to speak:

"And that's what happened."

[What?] I tweeted.

"Let me explain to you again. After you almost died, I…"

His voice fell silent again while his mouth moved as he spoke, but all was quiet before his voice came back:

"That's all I remember" he looks at me for a few moments before turning his head to the wall of information and walking away.

[But you didn't say anything! Come back here!]

"Didn't you understand anything I said? I don't want to repeat it." Before he began to speak a third time, the room gently began to brighten. This stops him from talking and instead, he changes the subject, ignoring what just happened:

"It seems the body has begun to open its eyes" He turned his head towards the invisible barrier, completely ignoring the conversation that had just happened before.

[Come back here! What exactly happened there?] I chirped hard at him but he completely ignored her until it frustrated me. I don't understand this - why couldn't I hear what he said and ignore me?

[I demand answers!]

"What answers? I've given you enough about that. I don't remember exactly what happened there myself... it gives me a headache" he pressed his hand to his head before he turned and with him, the invisible barrier of the lake, opening the body's eyes to see what Happened. Through it, I could see that we were moving gently among the trees and bushes scattered around.

But when I focused on the foreign movement I did not command the body to move and I saw that lines were blocking my view of trees.

"What exactly happened to us? Could you turn the body's head for a moment?"

I was in command of the body. At first, he did not respond to me, you see the movement of the trees moving in one direction, but when I commanded again, the field of vision began to move and with it, more lines blocked the field of vision

After more rotations, the body's head looked up and we could see the head that had a ceiling above us.

"Yes, this confirms it - we are trapped" The human said this and began to move between the boundaries of the invisible barrier and signaled me to try to command the body to see more. The body's head listened to my command and began to move its head to the sides. We could see that behind him, we were inside something but that everything seemed to be shaking.

And I could feel the vibration of the floor. The human quickly responded to the situation:

"No doubt we're being led somewhere. I'm sure we're in a carriage!"

*Positive. The entity [unknown] is present inside a cage transported in a carriage*

Suddenly we heard a familiar voice coming from behind us. When I turned my head, I could see the unclear figure Ravata returned, it seemed that his figure began to take shape more than the previous time, but it looked surprisingly similar to a human, only different, with something similar to my wings behind it and feathers on its legs. The human is surprised by Ravata's emerging appearance and even a little frightened, before speaking:

"I can't believe it! Why do you have a female body?! Are you female?"

*Negative, I don't have a gender* 'She' answered him mercilessly before continuing: * This is the view that sums up all the information received about a being and the view of those who inhabit it - [human] and [dodo bird] *

"I'll refer to you as a female, it just feels more comfortable" the human replied before continuing to ask in my direction for no apparent reason:

"Are you female?"

[No] I quickly tweeted him before turning to Ravata:

[What is the situation now? where are we?]

*Stable. In a cage. there is not enough information to answer the question*

"Excellent" the human looked and turned to both of us while walking around and continued talking:

"It's good that you're back because I have a lot of questions, but I feel that for now, we should do what we should do now."

I agreed with him but he continued talking:

"Ravata, you mentioned that you can provide us with information and give suggestions. I would love to know what we should do in this situation. Can you prove to us that you can do this"

Without any delay, the invisible barrier began to fill with information. Unlike the previous time before, my head for the first time did not hurt I could see how lines and inscriptions began to fill without burdening my line of thought too much. I think the pain probably got to her.

*No danger detected. I offer two possible options - to stay in place or escape from the cage with your strength - this is possible according to the strength index. I can't control the entity [unknown]*

We are both surprised by her quick answer and with that, the human looked at us and started talking to me:

"I think we should get out of this 'other prison'. It's not a good sign to stay here. Are you for or against it?"

General information:

It is a moderately flightless bird. They are mostly herbivores that eat fruits, seeds, and roots but are also able to eat and crack mollusks, crustaceans, and fish when the opportunity arises.

Their large and powerful beaks are capable of causing quite a bit of damage and are adapted to the food they eat, but they will more often than not choose to flee rather than fight, even though they have no natural fear.

This is a bird that does not exist in this world and should not exist. There is nothing like her in this world.

And not only that, in his presence and now, he made the impossible impossible. Ghosts follow him like a king, just like demons and mortals, so say the rumors coming from the forest.

It is an avian druid who has used his last powers to resist death. He is still a mortal among them all and looks just like the bird he was before, but what is inside is beyond description. As if it belongs to something else. Something deeper than it should be. But why this is something that is still too early to answer?
