The world has always been a mystery to people. How was everything really made? How did the world come to life? Why Earth of all the other planets in the galaxy? There are several theories about how the worldโ€” the universeโ€” was made, but there is quite nothing similar to all of them. The same goes with nature. Have you ever wondered that if people were the caretakers of nature, how was nature able to take care of itself when no man existed before them? And then there is humankind. The ever so curious humans. Always seeking answers to every question that comes to mind. Everything seems so mysterious to them that they always seek answers to the questions in the back of their minds.

Mystery. Rarity. Secrecy. Legacy. Curiosity. A strong pull to discover the truth surrounding the unknown. An existence so unusual it was feared by most. A strong will to keep things from being known for certain reasons that were not easily understood by many. Evidence left that would prove the existence of things even if unusual. A strong desire to seek answers to anything and everything.

The ever-present and undying urge to seek knowledge is one of the reasons scientists, professionals, or even just ordinary people themselves, never stop to find answers to the things they are curious about. And due to giving in to curiosity, many things were invented, made, developed, and discovered. Many questions were answered. Many solutions were brought forth to lingering problems. The strong desire to have an answer to every question there is to be asked is what pushes humankind to find the solution, the answer, to them all.

However, curiosity is also one of the reasons people get in dangerous situations. Curiosity to who might have been the people behind the burglary, the felony, the theft, the kidnapping, the homicide, the murder, the big drug lords, the corrupt officials, everything. This type of curiosity only leads to death threats or death itself. There is only one way or the other with these kinds of delving into one's curiosity. Endangering not only someone's life but also the lives of their loved ones and the people around them.

There are three types of people, but for most, there are only two. These three are the bad, the good, and those people who are the bystanders.

The bystanders, or the third type, are either good or the bad but prefer to stay silent and stand by the side to watch everything unfold in front of them. People who stop, watch, but then walk by whenever there is a commotion going on. People who will not speak up against something unless it directly affects them.

Then, there are the good people, the angels on earth, one may say. When someone comes off kind, selfless, forgiving, thoughtful, and all in all, good-natured, do you think that they really are that kind of person? No inner demons more frightening than you could ever imagine hiding in an angel-like appearance and personality? No hidden agenda? All pure desire to spread the good in everyone?

Now comes the first type mentionedโ€” the bad, the evil, spawns of the devil. When someone is said to be evil, do you believe that there is still a chance for them to change? That they could change just for the sake of a certain person? What if you just misjudged someone, and that all the while you thought they were bad, evil even, they are really not, and you were just jaded? When one comes off as a recluse, a snub, one who keeps to themselves, and would most of the time be seen as arrogant, narcissist, and selfish, are they really who others think they were? Can a product of something unusual and '๐˜ฆ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ญ' become the total opposite of it?

So, if asked, which one are you? When would you be able to say for sure that the things a person lets you see of them are true? How can you be so sure that someone is being honest in the way they project their mind and emotions? How do you distinguish the naturally good, the naturally bad, the disguised good, and the disguised bad in the sea of strangers where everyone is wearing a mask to cover up themselves?

In this world full of strangers, what was open to the masses, you cannot fully trust. For everyone wears a mask, to hide their deepest and darkest past. Everyone wears a mask, depending on who they are with. For everyone has a mask as their camouflage. Not because someone comes off as evil, they are truly evil, and not because someone sponsors charities left and right, it already means they are living a selfless life.

The Isle of Cetus is a secluded island, a country that only a few know existed and only a handful know it is habitable. The whole isle is a mystery itself. Only a lineage in each city knows the real origin of the isle and no one else, and this is the reason how the whole isle preserves its naturally mysteriously secret origin.

Most of the isle is surrounded by water. Most people live off of fishing and farming. There are also other occupations, but fishermen and farmers are the most abundant. There are only a few factories for distinct purposes.

Half of the isle gets its electricity through windmills and the other half through hydroelectric power plants. There is probably not much pollution in the whole isle because there are no cars and instead, the primary vehicles are bicycles. There is only one bar in each city and most alcoholic drinks can only be found in those bars and imported drinks cost a fortune. The most abundant building in Cetus though, are bookshops. The whole of Cetus is taught to love the art of reading, writing, and understanding hidden meanings.

If you would take your time living in every part of the isle, it was said to have the feel of a greenhouse full of oxygen and only about five percent pollution. A dream-like place to live in, one would say.

Each city, just like the whole isle itself, has its mystery and secret. Just like here in mine, the City of Lethe. At the centre part of the heart of Lethe was a forest with only a few who braved to enter. As far as my knowledge of the whole Isle of Cetus, only the City of Lethe has a forest at the nexus of it.

The Isle of Cetus offers a curiosity-driven adventure for mystery and answer-seeking people. I am as brave as a lion, from the lineage of the guardians of the forest and this is the story of how I found ๐˜”๐˜บ ๐˜Œ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ญ ๐˜š๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ.

The other stood still in front of the terrified one, carefully watching every drop of blood from her neck. He did not answer the brown-haired lass' question. Contemplating if what he did was right. The terrified female looked up to her saviour only to be stoned cold again. Though the jet-black eyes she saw from her attacker are now of bright blue from her saviour, she can read the bloodthirst from that set of electric blue orbs.
