Chapter 51 – To Bed...
Humans called Cursed Lands but inhabitants of those lands had a name for it. Nibiru. Hakim lead us to homeland of dwarfs. Pass which connected Nibiru and Jorm was filled with endless forests. Luna advised us to fly on Gorn rather than to walk or ride horse until we reached Hakim’s home. Gorn was useful in sense flying on him made our trip much more easier and faster. Time was of importance to me. Hakim told us of a monument which was built close to his village. He told us that if there is anything that may be used as a portal to another dimension that would be monument. Hakim lacked knowledge in monument’s origin, but he told us he knew where we can learn about how to activate and use it properly.
Hakim was an interesting and mysterious persona. Small and weak in statute but passionate and ambitious one. Clothing that he wore were of normal quality as if he was not King of Nibiru. Simplicity was his lifestyle. At least that’s what he told us.
Gorn was landing for few hours a day for us to rest. We arrived to Hakim’s village after 5 days of flying. Without losing time, Hakim took us to top of the hill and with his right hand pointing to north he showed us the monument. It was a large circular structure. We came close to it to get to know what it is in details. Structure was made of metal of unknown origin. It felt like iron when touching it by hand but there was no sign of corrosion or rust. It was a meter in width. In close inspection it had different circular objects drawn on its sides.
[Hakim]: I’m not sure whether it’s the thing what you are searching for but there is nothing else that may be of use except this in Nibiru.
[Luna]: How we use it?
[Hakim]: Let’s go back to my home. You all should rest, and I will search for any books that may have instructions to activate it.
Hakim was right. I was feeling dizzy and stresful. Going back to his house, we had rice with beef. Slept through the night. At breakfast, Hakim showed up with 3 books. I tried my best but couldn’t read a word from any of them. Luna and Hakim went through the books word by word for another week. By this time, most of the dwarfs were back in the village. It was a lively place to be.
I think Kingdom of Nibiru would integrate with the rest of the kingdoms as time passed. Peace is good. Peace is the best way. I was vary of Hakim. He may be the emperor who would rule the world in the future. Time will show, and I hope I would not see what happens as I want to go back to my world.

[Luna]: This a good and bad news. Which one first?
[Me]: Good one.
[Luna]: This is the dimensional portal. Hakim you go on with the bad one.
[Hakim]: It’s not fair Luna.
Damn. He was manipulating her, they were already on name basis.
[Hakim]: To activate it, we need something called “energy”. Massive amounts of it. Person or group who will be going through the gate will have to “insert” the place where they want to be transported by thinking about it. Second part is the easy part, as you know where you want to go. But “energy” part seems hard!
[Me]: What’s energy? Is it mana?
[Hakim]: I’m not sure of details but as much as we understood lighting should be sufficent. Not just a lightening but one with extreme power in it.
I turned my face to Luna.
[Me]: You are able to do lightening magic, aren’t you?
[Luna]: I’m but I haven’t heard of anyone in this world who has mana capacity to run a multi-dimensional portal.
[Me]: I know one.
[Hakim]: who?
[Me]: Luna! You have a link to me. You could borrow my mana to activate it!
She had a smile on her face. A sad one. That’s day we didn’t do much, and waited for next day morning to begin our test. Before sleep I asked Luna out to hill...
[Me]: Something wrong with you?
[Luna]: I do not...
[Me]: What? What’s wrong?
[Luna]: I’ll be lonely if you go.
[Me]: Gorn will be here for you!
[Luna]: Aslan...
[Me]: Yes?
[Luna]: I think I love you!
[Me]: Hahaa...
I put my right arm around her shoulder and pull her towards myself. Her head was resting on my chest. Tears were dropping to my lap. Moon was lightening darkness of the night.
Her hands grabbing me tighthly, she embraced me softly, as lover would. I patted her head, my fingers going through her soft hair. Few hours passed and she was asleep in my arms. I took her back to bed.
