I followed her to the Third floor, she guides me to the meeting room and it looks like Jade and her husband is still in there. several minutes later I finally in front of the meeting room.
*knock knock*
she knocks on the door first before entering, from inside the room we can hear someone said
"open it"
giving us permission, she then opens the door, I enter the room
"hmm.."
somehow I feel the aura inside the room is tense, maybe I interrupt something?
"dear, this is our master"
she informs me to her husband after she introduced the two of them then bowing in front of me.
"it's a pleasure to meet you, master, since the day we still in the village, we always waiting to see you wake up!"
the two of them greet me, I can hear the tone of happiness from them. so Jade failed to persuade them to not bowing in front of me, but at least they're not bowing in front of me in public.
"hahhhh, big bro I already told you aren't I? Len Len didn't want any of you bowing!"
"yes I know, but at least let us do this for once since is our long-cherished wish to seeing our master wake up"
"hahhhh"
Jade sighed while covering his face with her hand.
"it's nice to meet you too, now can you stand? I really feel uncomfortable to talk with you in that posture"
"as you wish"
the two of them raise from the ground, then he continues...
"oh, I'm sorry for our rude behavior I forget to introduce myself, my name is Rudy Vega and the one who brings you here is my wife Arsya Vega she is my wife, as you know the two of us are from Vega Village"
"I'm Arsya my lord, please forgive us for our rude behavior from before"
I forget to tell it, all villager in Vega village have Vega on their last name it indicates them that they have a relationship in our village or they are one of our people. the Vega itself taken from Andrian's last name, Andrian vega.
the reason why all the Villages decided to use Vega in their last name is that they decide that they're one big family in the name of the first head of Village, it's a tribute for him. they use it as a symbol or our village, if someone have Vega name in their last name it means possibly they are part of our village. the name of Vega means is one of the brightest stars in the universe, it's a name taken from the Arabic word 'waqi' means falling or landing.
"it's okay, maybe you already know this, I'm Galen, Galen Asraf you can call me Len, is really uncomfortable for me to be calling master by someone older than me"
"what are you saying master, you're one of the oldest beings in this world you know!"
ahhh now I remember even though my body and my mind is still 20 years old, my true age is already 5000 years, because of that meditation.
"haha, well it's true"
"oh yeah, please take a seat master Len"
rudy told me to take a seat, the table in the meeting room is very long but at the tip of the table there's one chair, it was the master chair, he gave me the master chair. for the past three months, I'm already getting used to this treatment.
"so, we already know the details of your journey, even the reason for your journey from Jade and the village is already told us to give you all the support you need"
"thank you I appreciate it"
"We already heard to what you seek, is the place name Avalon is that true master?"
so Jade already told everything huh? well, that's convenient I don't need to tell them about it.
"yes, as you can figure, I start this journey because I have a dream when I have the first sleep in here, in that dream I meet the girl, the girls said that I must go to Avalon and in there I will get the answer that I seek, I know it's sound crazy because I believe in a dream but for some reason, I can't ignore that dream"
from point of other people maybe I sound crazy because I believe in the dream, but I can't ignore that dream no matter what, because in that dream...
"I see I understand the situation, there's no way we call you crazy master if you said like that, that's mean it was true"
what a faith! even though it's the first time we meet.
"hmmm can I ask questions? I have been wanting to ask this to everyone from the village, I know maybe for all of you is strange, but I just want to know why are all of our villagers really believe in me? aren't I just someone accidentally meditate in that lake why should all of you believe me? if only the three idiots inside me I can understand why they will believe me, but for all of the villagers to believe in me? I want to know why?"
I always wonder how can they have that strong faith in me.
for the moment there's silence in the room the three of them stare at each other while smiling.
"so the elder didn't tell you huh? I guess it's reasonable why we must tell it to you"
I don't understand what he said, the elder didn't tell me what?
"it story from 10 years ago, that night all of the village either in the village or outside the village have the same dream"
"same dream? all of them?"
I was surprised.
"yes, in that dream there's an only world without nothing there is only sea like a mirror in it and it feels so calming, reassuring and nostalgic in there"
is that's mean all of them already have been in that world? so that is why the elder also surprise when I tell about my dream.
"in that dream, we have the appearance when we are still a child, in there we meet the girl that you mention, she asks us 'what is Galen for you?', we answer her 'from what the three guardians said you're our leader' she smiles and laughs, we don't understand why she laughs, she then tells us a story, I don't remember what the content of the story because when we wake up that was the only thing from that dream we forget, at least we only remember the end of that story is a bad end. after hearing it in the dream I don't know why... I cry, not just me but all the villager who have this dream also cry, she told us that the only way the story becomes a happy end is we just need to have a hope in you, even if that hope will be realized or not that's is the only way, the fate of the story is in his hand. the dream is so vague but from the bottom of our heart, we don't know why, we believe in her. when we wake up all the villagers have shed a tear in their face, the sadness in their face can be seen, the elder said this dream never even happened before. they said maybe this is the sign that you will wake up, not long after that, the 3 guardians told their secret, they said you're a chosen one and you will wake up in this exact year, we surprised hearing it but after feeling it your power wake up three months ago we believe the time for the end of the story is near"
another story about the chosen one and the time of my wake up, I understand right now why the elder didn't tell me, because I never ask them, to them this is just the good omen so they don't need to tell me about this story. hearing the full story of why they believe me it only makes me ask more questions, what is this chosen one thing? and what the content of that story? why did she tell them?
"so because she tells you the story you believe in what she said? but it is not strange for you? you said all of you don't remember that story but you only know that story have a bad end, why is all of the Villager really concerned about that story?"
Jade who is silent for the time being, right now she is the one who answered me
"yes it's strange, why we really concerned about that story, we don't even remember it, but we feel if we abandon it the end of that story there will be something bad happen for us that was what we think"
"until now all of us can still feel the sadness of that time when we wake up, even though we don't remember that story, the story is changing us to this degree"
Arsya who already silent from before now speak too.
"story huh?"
I wonder what is the content of the story that changes them like this. to the point they believe in me. what she tell to them? why did you tell them? until now I can't understand what is the reason why I experience a time skip.
"are all you okay with this? with believing in me? I'm not that great person you know, I'm just an ordinary human. even if you said that story can be changed there's no guarantee that the story changes because I wake up"
"yes maybe you're ordinary and we don't are you able to change it or not, but no matter what, every human have meaning in their life we believe in you who will make the end of the story become the good end, I believe there is a reason of your meditation for 5000 years"
I can see for a moment the resemblance of teacher Wessel in Rudy, 'every human have meaning in their life'
it really feels nostalgic for me. I smiled happily hear what Rudy said to me.
