When i try to open my eyes, all i could see was darkness, complete darkness.
I couldn't see a single light in this dark world, i don't know where i was
But i could sense that someone or something is trying to crawl on me, i don't know what it was but i knew whatever it is... its is dangerous.
I tried to grab my sword, but i had nothing on me.
I was naked in this place, in this complete darkness.
Every time that thing touched me, a feeling of disgust emerged in me.
Every time that thing touched my body, it felt like i am being pierced by thousands of needles and i cant do anything.
Every time that thing touched me, it felt like i was being eaten away.
It was not fast, but rather slow, very slow
That thing crawled on me, ate me away, and played with my body
I tried to put up a fight, but for how long?
That thing never ended, it kept on coming at me again and again, i kept on fighting, keeping my sanity alive,
But for how long?
I am getting tired,
I want to rest, but i know that if i take the rest now, i will lose myself,
So i kept on fighting, but for how long?
The question kept on coming in my mind, i am tired...
Where are my subordinates?
Where is this place?
And how long do i have to fight till i am free?
I had no answer to all of these questions, thus i kept fighting,
Hoping that one day i will return to my land, my people, my home, but... i am now getting tried
I called for help, as it is wise to fight with more people to increase the chances of winning, thus i kept on asking for help
If someone is there, but no one answered.
No one answered my call
But, he came
"What is your name?" He asked me
And i told him, "Theia, thats my name"
I didnt see his face clearly as soon i found myself in another place, a sea
. . .
The sword Chiyou had in his hand used to belong to the moon god, Wu Shanyuan, as for what this sword can do,
It can allow its user to capture the souls of dead people and also, no matter what it touches, it can instantly freeze that thing.
And the reason why Chiyou was able to hear the call of a soul and even tell the gender was all because of this sword.
The main goal of his sword was to capture the soul calling for help and ask his god parents to give her the chance to enter the cycle of rebirth, but
Something else happened, something Chiyou had never imagined in his life
Just after Chiyou put the soul of Theia into his sword, in the next second, the whole sword started shaking wildly and then started floating in the air as it emitted a bright light.
"what in the world happened?" Chiyou asked with his eyes all wide, as he was also able to see some bright light even though he is almost blind.
The moon god's sword is no longer up in the air, rather it has disappeared and a person appeared.
A female with two large horns, made up of bone, in her head and her white/silver short hair is all messy.
Her whole body color is dark brown and her eyes are just like a beast, her eye color is light blue.
She is sitting above the sea of souls all naked, looking around herself.
Theia looked at herself and then looked at the man standing beside her, she asked "Can you... give me a piece of clothing?"
Chiyou understood the reason Theia is asking for clothes, so he immediately took his robe out
*ice*
Ice started forming under her feet, as Theia tried to stand up and this made her surprise as ice is forming from under her feets
"How?" Theia asked
"Your body has manifested from the moon gods sword, thus no matter what you touch, it will be freeze instantly"
"What?"
Theia is shocked to hear this
"lets not stay in this place, let me pick you up as you might get into some problem if you keep don't learn to control yourself"
"Wait-Wait-Wait"
Chiyou didn't listen to her and picked her in his arm, and started walking back to his boat.
Theia could see the ice she created unconsciously has started melting away, its clear that the sea has a burning effect, but then a question came into her
How is Chiyou moving when the water has a burning effect?
She looked below and there she sees that his feet are burning,
It was not just his feet that Theia noticed, she also noticed that the sea is not made up of water but souls.
"Where is this place?" Theia asked
"This is the sea of souls, a place where all evil souls receive punishment for eternity"
"Then does that mean i was here? between them?
and I am dea-"
Theia stopped her question because when she looked at Chiyou, she found tears dripping from his chin
"Why are you crying?"
"I am crying for the souls that are here,
My sword allows me to sea souls and also capture them,
Not only that, i can also tell the pain of each and every soul that i am stepping on right now.
I can tell that they were in pain,
They were all happy when they came to the world but life had been harsh on them and the results are them being turned into evil.
They want salvation, they want to end this pain yet no one is listening to them."
"You are crying for those who killed others? People, who have no chance to return?
You are crying for those who are evil?"
"I am not crying for what they have done,
I am crying for what they have been through that turned them evil."
