For Heart and Home the lion roar (Chapter one)
You know, when you die, you would probably expect nothingness, light in the darkness, heaven, hell or whatever is out there as form of afterlife. I definitively didn´t imagine that I would be met with some gigant in full armor that looks like a godforsaken dragon. Even though its impressive, not gonna lie there. But it still is terrifying, definitively not petting material.
"Soul of Shattered World, I have chosen you to serve our purpose." WHAT? Wait a minu- "You shall be the beast that guards the Chosen king and his life, the shadow that destroyes his enemies, the bringer of light to starscurged land. If you fail at your task the endless torture awaits you, soul. That is my will as mighty ruler Bahamut, one of the Six. Protector of Eos. Sovereign of Eikons." menacing aura surrounded me. Did any of those titles make any sense to me? No, not at all. I had so many questions that I needed answers for. Oh crap! My soul started burning up, if it was even possible I would be screaming like a banshee. The energy started dissolving into darkness. Fuck, how to stop it, how to stop this, panic overtaken me. Yet sweet voice spoke gently to my disappearing form, it felt like a warm breezy through spring day. " You will not be alone little one, my child will help you through your journey. Be warned, it will be difficult one without any mercy. " That was the last thing I heard when flames consumed me whole.
“Ouch, that hurt like a bitch. Wait, what the?!” I've never felt more confused than I did now. I was back in my old human body. “That is fucking great, I would like to send a complaint, that I didn't want this whatever this all is ...”
“She believes that this soul doesn´t have much of choice in this matter.” said lovely voice. I turned around so fast, that my head was little dizzy. On the hill where I was standing, a blue-white fairy was floating, snowflakes were flying around her like a veil. I may be little biased but she was absolutely gorgeous being. I stared at her in astonishment until I started to get embarrassed to stand there in silence. "What do you mean, why did you choose me of all people. This doesn´t make any sense to me! I took that path wilingly ...” I admit that I was little harsher to her than I wanted to, but everything was ... so wrong. The fairy sat down on the ground, snow covered the place where she standed. " Otheral, let her introduce, this one´s name is Shiva, messenger of gods and goddess of ice. She shall be your guide through the mother, to insure soul understands her role in this plan.” What? Okay, now I felt overwhelmed, I am speaking with real godness. People in my realm would go fucking crazy If they saw her.
“ And who is this mother you spoke of? That was the voice I heard in the darkness, correct?” I managed to say. I am still not sure what exatly they want from me, apart being some beast who protect some king. Do they mean it literal or just matter of speech?
“ Otheral is truly correct, it was mother´s voice who spoke to them. One shall call her Etro, the death incarnation and former protector of this world.”
Former protector? Don´t tell me this is some political bullshit my ass got into.
“ Otheral shall follow this one, we have a long way ahead of us. As a protector of a chosen king, she will need all the help and experience she can get on her journey.” I don´t like the sound of that. Not. at. all.
