"Before the world, only a mindful thought can create a word."

STEP ONE

Years later after saving the ghoul of the neighbour land, she kept running that none knew what was chasing after her.

She runs every time she stays alone. This event kept occurring until on an awfully sinister night on a local shed, when moonlight stays longer at nighttime, when horrors and fearful sound pushed Tonia to concentrate on an oak tree winding at canal side, the only night that defined the whole of her fretful wail (she was fearfully gazing on the oak tree). A stature of a man's skeleton could be figured, Tonia's focus was paralyzed. The man's figure overshadowed her until she discovered that the oak tree was bordered with so many branches… She thought deeply on the figure she saw, she couldn't picture the event that caused the frightful mood.

She decided to stay inside her local shed memorizing and gyrating her debility as she couldn't fixed out the source of her worries.

It was on a drain noon day; the image of an old man hanged on the architrave of her window was dangling, oscillating to and fro, she cut-in without making a move to lead the source of the uncaused fluctuation by the wind. Imagining the world of this beautiful Tonia, that leaved in appalling hut, with fearful sketches of hunter's symbols, antique gods and with certain bones of deadly animals.

A man's stature appeared again blurring on the transom's side of her window as the statue of the old man was still dangling unceasingly. Suddenly the statue fell down from the architrave of the window as its thinning rope couldn't hold the ghoul vigor wind that was oscillating it. The statue's glass broke, Tonia moved forward to pick it up (nervously in fear, the whole of her body was vibrating in fear of getting hurt), the old man's image tainted and transformed to a written note. She started reading the note that effectively reacting lively as an evoked event, horror sound was added to the lively revelation that was happening.

The stature still on the transom's side of her window watching her, Tonia was congealed as she was reading the tainted image of the old man… she saw the real world of the stature that was parading around her without giving up as she was reading the transformed image, the tainted image revealed to her so many things that seems impossible in her subsistence.

Her birth scene was revealed too, and some strange things that happened on the day she came into the world, she saw many people that are no longer in existence. She saw some godly sacrifices performed to led and to know her position in the War Kingdom… there was a very big loud thunder clap that pushed the Chief Oracle of War kingdom to evoke different spirits from seven dimensions of their villages to identify the strange new born baby that stormed the weather of War Kingdom.

The seven spirits from the seven villages reacted at once, villagers were in fear because of the strange things happening they had not witnessed in their War kingdom.

The seven spirits revealed to the Chief Oracle of the War kingdom that the baby was from the world of seventh planet to the earth on a serious mission known to the gods alone, she would be the last person that to die in the War Kingdom after seven years of everyone's death, she would not cause harm but she would face fearful things every time until she passes away. A man's spirit would guide her, he will make sure that nobody proposes or engages her, she was in a covenant with the prince of seventh planet,,,, suddenly the stature disappeared, the seven spirits revealed how protective the prince was to her, before their evil custom that expatriated Tonia into the War kingdom, the prince engaged her before the war that took his life away.

Tonia cried bitterly and pitifully, nobody again could hear her voice even the revealed Prince (the Stature) left immediately he discovered that his mission has been revealed to Tonia. Though, his mission was to protect Tonia from perils, to fulfill his promises as the Oath they took during their lives in the seventh planet, to protect one another even at death and after death.

STEP TWO

His (Prince the Stature) relationship with Tonia as the tainted book revealed, that nobody would engaged Tonia, despite her beautifulness, she restricted many men from getting close to her. Her beauty was very attractive and seductive. Severely, many men engaged in so many evil plans just to ruin her heart, yet she maintained her stand to keep her virginity to her lovely Prince.

It happened that on a very sinister night, that defined how strong the Prince would be, during the fights that seized his life… No one revealed to him that his sojourn to the voyage garden, disseminates some pressure that could weaken the spirits, he attempted to join the heft men as he was known among the strongest being in their Kingdom. He was late to their meeting when the captain revealed that the journey to the voyage garden permits only male feet and honours of virginity, which he was a victim break his virginity with the slavery in his father's Kingdom… Tonia was waiting on a lonely side of an oak tree as he ordered her to wait for his return. She waited but to see him as a ghost. Nobody revealed to them that the garden discriminate nonvirgins, this was some men's plan just to ruin Tonia's joy.

Now, she could been able to recall how she shared things in common with the Prince,,, she tears out loudly, no one again could hear her cry, none could come for her aid. She was the only soul left in the War Kingdom, many spirits paraded around, she was no longer afraid of them… it seems she got fortified after the revelation from the tainted book.

She decided to take a walk from a distance though, she got the whole kingdom to herself to rule the empty kingdom filled with spirits,,, she ruled the land of the dead without her Prince.

Footsteps could be heard, she turned immediately, it was a big dry tree that was falling to hurt her, the Stature appeared at once and saved Tonia. She got shocked; she said "Even in the shadow of his death, he kept his promises".

The truth that left unsaid is that I had tagged myself a widow, since he kept his promises till death.

He departed on his sojourn to the voyage garden, I was waiting on a lonely side of an oak tree as the land custom had instructed, that the soil of the voyage garden permits only male feet,,, I waited but to see you as a ghost, indeed you gave up to death but not in your promises to protect me even if you're dead

Nobody revealed to us that the garden discriminates non virgins. Despite his unplanned departure he saved the separation.

I love you my lovely dead prince… the stature appeared at once again and both gone forever…

Tonia the living stone of Prince, the Stature… the END
