Kahla POV
As I look at my paradise that is void of intelligent life my heart is pained. The pain comes from the betrayal of what are my creation, but sometimes I think that probably the fault is mine. Abiath's light element is pure and have a healing and soothing effect, it was used in the creation to give energy to the creatures and plants. Life and light are companions and the Ran'shas thought that light was the foundation of good. Instead my dark element is made to balance the light, it kills, curses and destroys. Chaos and dark are sisters. My dark element won't ever give life, instead, I, with my dark element, created the forsaken element of Death. Death in origin didn't exist, the creatures lived eternally. They didn't need to eat, drink or protect themselves from diseases as they didnt exist.
My fault, the dark element fault lies in their hearts. I and Abiath mixed my dark element and his light element to make them.
For the first eons the light took the upper hand and created the greatest civilization that ever existed but my dark element corrupted their hearts and with the times it took control on them by establishing in them the seed of greed.
I clearly know that for every element, emotion and force there will be a balancer like water and Fire, Chaos and nature, hate and love, greed and generosity, and the most important of all of them, Kahla and Abiath. But my heart is colliding with my reason and guilty is taking over me. What if it wasn't their fault in essence?
As my heart swayed beetween hate and guilty I made my mind. I will ask Abiath, he will surely have a solution for my problem. He is always there smiling gently at me and helping me with my problems. We were probably made to hate each other but I can't think of a life without him and I think he thinks the same thing.
I walked in the beautifully green forest toward the center. I could directly teleport myself directly there but by walking I could settle my heart and mind.
The way of nature was something that I always envied, it's not like I hated my way of chaos but the peaceful and soothing greenery had a calming effect on me. I loved that feeling.
I reached an opening and in the middle of it, on a rock seated in a thinking pose, with his elbow on his knee and the head posed on his hand was a man. It was the most perfect man.
It was my man.
He looked at me and smiled gently as my heart fluttered and my face grew hot.
"What is it, Kahla? "
Abiath POV
I was contemplating the existence of an unknown element when my lovely lady, Kahla entered my vision.
I saw her troubled although lovely face and smiled. The smiles beetween me and Kahla were the most trhuful and heartfelt smiles in this universe, unlike the Ran'shas and their successors, we didn't have any ulterior motives beetween us. I simply smiled because I loved her and she smiled because she loved me.
I knew her for so much time that I could read her like an open book. And that expression meant indecision and a tinge of guilt.

"What is it, Kahla?"
I decided to ask directly, honesty is my tactic with Kahla. Although not simple simple-minded, Kahla is pretty weak toward sincerity. If she is angry, I say "But I love you, Kahla!" and she will forget her anger. If she is happy, I say "I'm happy for you." And she will smile. If she is troubled I ask about the problem and she will say her troubles.
Her face reddened with a lovely tinge as she fidgeted nervously. Ah, I love those expression that she makes only in front of me. That childish nervousness and her fidgeting made my heart beat faster. Although I loved those expression I never said it to her and kept it to myself, if I said it she will probably be more aware and won't make them anymore.
Although we loved eachother we weren't that far in our relationship, if I had to say it in Ran'shas or, their successor, humans terms then we would probably be in the holding hands stage. Our love was more on the platonic side.
I shooed away those thoughts and looked toward my lady again.
She looked at me before opening her mouth and explaining here thoughts and problems.
"Abiath can you help me?"
So her problem lies in the decision she took eons ago. The banishment of the Ran'shas.
She thinks that her dark element was the cause but I know that it isn't true and I tried saying it to her but she didn't want to listen. Although I represent the light and generosity, I still loathe the Ran'shas, in contrast Kahla is easily angered but once she settles down her senses start screaming "It's all my fault, the guilt lies with me". I can't make myself to forgive them as they were given everything but still betrayed Kahla, me and O'ul. I can't make myself to destroy them of even banish them but I still loathe them.
My heart gave them hope and help but my reason stopped me from doing anything else.
I look at Kahla and think about how to make her stop thinking about this. It pains me seeing her pained by the betrayal and guilt.
Then it hit me.
"Kahla, lets descend to the mortal world and judge if they are worthy of forgiveness. If they are, we would make them return to Alam like in the past. But if they aren't then we will never influence them again."
I know that I'm dodging the problem of the corrupted heart but this should settle it for the moment.
Kahla beamed a gorgeous smile.
"Alright, let's go! "
She took my hand and before I even registered what she said, I found myself in beetween a cheetah and a girl.
Kahla always loved animals and beasts so as she saw the cheetah she started petting it like an overgrown cat.
I looked back at the girl and saw that she was almost swallowed by the cheetah, her eyes were closed as if she wanted to escape reality. I smiled at the silliness of mortals, they always find a way to amuse me.
She opened her eyes and stared at me. Seeing that her feet was twisted, I gave her my hand.
She took my hand and got up. After looking for sometime in daze toward Kahla she muttered.
"Who are you? "
