“Ughh my head hurts...” I said while slowly opening my eyes. ‘Oh looks like the fire is already gone. I would say about a mile around me got burned up and lost it's... color?... I wonder for how long was I napping? Oh, well…'

"Ughhhhh! What am I doing! I'm finally free!" I shouted to myself while trying to stand up using my hands as leverage. When I finally stood up, I shrieked at the top of my lungs "Hell yeahhhhhhhh!" With a huge grin, I shrieked. "Hahahahaha! I'm standing bitches!" With anticipation for my upcoming adventure written all over my face. 'Now that I think this through... I have no idea where I am— nor where to go... -well shit'

'Well, I guess I will go that wa-" The moment I started walking. Or better word would be to struggled to walk. I went face deep into the wet and colorless soil..., "Shit... the ground is really cold..." Finally being able to stand normally I looked towards the sky and my eyes barely caught black smoke coming from behind a small hill upfront. “Hmm? I wonder what's happening over there… Gawwh” My stomach cried out. 'I’m feeling really hungry so I guess I will go check it out. Not that I have a choice… That seems to be the most likely way to not die from starvation.’

I walked towards the small black cloud rising behind that hill. The distance was maybe about a kilometer…. Deam… I spent so much time in the void yet I didn‘t age… I hate these tiny legs of mine. After I got closer to the cloud, it seemed to get smaller and smaller… Thank goodness if it would have been getting bigger— that wouldn’t be a good sign…

I’m almost at the top… Common little legs do your job— Now that I look around… It‘s beautiful… about 200 meters away from what I could see the river extended ahead of me, with sharp rocks jutting out from the stream in sparkling hues against the sun behind me, a beautiful forest and the absolutely gorgeous mess that I’m guessing… I left… Lifeless, colorless, forest… That‘s what I call art. ‘If someone finds out I did this… People might not look at me in a very friendly way… yeah, let's not go around telling everyone about my “Art”’

As I closed my eyes and enjoyed the peace and quiet… the fresh air… the cool breeze… the white teeth in my right hand… “Wait… WHAT!” I screamed and shook my right hand all over the place— That's a freaking wolf… “Aghhh… You dog I never said I would let you taste me you jerk!” I shrieked in a high-pitched voice while silently casting a spell with my left hand. In the corner of my eye, something caught my attention… ‘shit… you guys hunt in groups don’t ya…’ “Man— Aghh. Mana blade” I shouted with all my might and slashed the unstable Mana blade into the wolf‘s neck… Cleanly chopping off its head. It was hard for me to concentrate while he was munching on my hand so the mana blade became unstable and after it got off the wolf’s head it exploded knocking me off the cliff and painfully hitting the ground… and then everything went black.

-----------------------------------------—- Village inhabitant (Angelica)

It‘s been 26 days after the strange... explosion. The village was starting to get back on its feet but some called this land cursed and moved away… My daughter is 9 years old— I just wanted her to have a peaceful life.

Someone tugged on my dress… It was my daughter who said, “Mommy, don‘t cry.” She said in an apologetic tone and looking at me with puppy eyes.

“I’m sorry sweetheart…” I smiled and awkward smile. “The adventurer‘s healed my wound… It’s way better now. My magic is to weak— do you remember my promise?”

She had a huge grin on her face and said while joyfully jumping “Let’s go fish for fishes together mommy!” I looked at her with delight... She is calmer than I am… “Let's go!”

“Angelica, wait!” A strong man with well-developed muscles ran into our little shack and shouted. It was my husband, but he seemed in a rush so I skipped the messing around the part and listened to him seriously. My smile disappeared... “What is it?” I asked him with a serious tone. “A boy… about 7-8 years old boy… He was being washed away by the river when one of our fishermen saw him and got him out... He is seriously injured— looks like he fought a bear or a wolf… it’s hard to tell he got really run down by the river…” I can feel my face muscles tensing up into a frown. “He has strange markings on his left hand— we think he might have escaped from slave traders.”

“Let me see him..”

We all rushed out of the shack and onto a small tent that was our “Hospital”. There lied a young boy full of open wounds and blood oozing out. There were three individuals standing around him working to stop his bleeding… “Miss Angelica. Please heal this child or he won’t last till sunset.

----------------------------------------------------— Mira POV (Main character)

I am standing in the middle of the desert… Alone… that strange painful feeling in my chest… Looking forward now… I noticed a humanly figure standing a distance away while it’s dress was buffeted by the strong winds… seemingly blowing down out of nowhere.

“You must pay for your sins— You must not forget your sins… Son” A faintly familiar female voice with no emotion came from behind me. I instinctively looked back but found nothing… I looked back towards the direction of the strange figure— It was gone…

I searched around me everywhere when suddenly everything went dark… I glanced upon the sun. It was black… A black sun… suddenly a bunch of odd memories struggled to force their way inside my head… “Aghhhhh, Ahhhhhhh” After some time of screaming and rolling on the hot red sand. The intense pain has stopped. ‘I won— ain‘t letting you inside my head... Just like father taught me…’ Everything around me started cracking… Like a screen or a window… until there was nothing… everything went black again… “Am I dead?... Again?” I inquired with a troubled and regretful expression. “You can’t escape your destinyyyy!” The female voice that resounded in my head… From left… and right… it came from everywhere slowly disappeared.

“Haaahhhh” I opened my eyes and shouted. Confused at what was going on… There were people with bloodied rags— and.. bandages? All stood around me. I tried to hold my hands up in a defensive stance but my whole body was shaking and my eyelashes felt heavy.

“It’s okay… Everything will be all right… go back to sleep… rest…” I saw a fuzzy figure of a beautiful woman saying these words with a light and gentle tone… and then my consciousness faded away once more.
