Chapter 17 - Awakening

********

Lia's POV

********

That night, I dreamt of things like magic, wolves and an island. The island was full of crystals, animals and green hills. People were red haired, platinum blonde and hair so black it shown blue in the sunlight. their eyes, some violet, some a liquid gold, and silverish grey. All of them contained magic, you could feel it in the air.

I walked though various places from mountians to see, watching the people. Like a ghost none of them paid me any mind. I watched them work play and love. Happiness flowed from the land.

My view suddenly changed, I was in a darkened forest, fog swilred around. There was a foreboding that you could feel in your bones. A wolf appeared out of the fog. This one was not Lada. The wolf was salt and pepper colored, its eyes a luminous blue. I took a step back as it approached almost by instinct.

"I would not run, I am here to offer you some knowledge." it said. Lifting its head to sit infront of me.

I was worried, but did not move again. "What knowlwdge?".

"The place you seen, is where our people have traveled to. A parallel timeline. They are of your blood, though I can smell the human in you too. " With that the wolf sneezed. "Your ancestors choose to stay. They knew what would happen here. As it is coming now. There are creatures in this world that took over who were not meant to." He looked around the forest.

I followed his gaze, bison, rabbits, deer, snakes, and all sorts of other animals appeared. "These are creatures of your world who are connected to you just like the Earth herself." The wolf stood and howled. A lonesome mournful sound, that made one shiver and feel sad all at once.

I watched twinkles of light fall from the sky. Like snow, but in the form of glitter. The light from the sky began to move, shadows began to stretch and disappear in one fluid motion. The sprinkle and light became more intense until I was blinded. When my vision was back there was a woman of who bore the headress of the moon goddess. Her hair a platinum blonde with the most silver reflecting eyes. A black cloak encircled a shimmering silver gown. Oddly she was barefoot. "Hello Accalia." She spoke with a musical ring in it.

"Hi, how do you know my name?" I asked. Looking around I seen all the animals giving her her due. They were bowed low.

"Your assumption of I being the moon goddess is correct." She smiled. There was a hint of fangs but only a hint. "I am here at the request of Leto. She wanted me to aid in your awaking." The goddess paused looking at the animals she said to them "I and Accalia need privacy. Please return to where you came." Looking back at me "follow me, we are going for a walk." With that as her feet touched the Earth the grass parted and hugged her feet.

I followed what else was there to do. I matched her step, though keeping just behind. Not knowing if walking next to her was allowed. The dream was far different then any I had had before.
