After a while, Sila opened her eyes.
She saw that she wasnot now in the same room.
She was now standing in front of the door if the paintings' room.
But it felt odd.The whole place changed.
Now, Sila was standing again in front of the paintings' room.
But she felt that she has timetravelled.
Because now the room wasn't deserted and spooky but instead it was under construction.
The room seems to be constructed recently and only the door was left to be completed.
The snake's painting wasn't engraved on the door so far.
The scriptures were half done.
She saw two craftsmen engraving the scriptures on the huge door.
But they didn't seem to feel her presence.
"Hey, Who is this man in the legend?"
"I don't know.Madam asked us to engrave his legend on the door and asked us not to tell anything to others."
"I think he was someone great"
"Yeah, his stories says it all. But then why others don't know about him?"
"Who knows?It's all the Royal family's affairs and we should not poke our nose into it. Come we should finish this scripture today. Tomorrow we have to draw the snake on the door."
She heard the two craftsmen chatting about the scripture that they were engraving on the door.
'So, the writings were really about some legend'
Sila decided to enter the room. She knew that now she was like a soul without any body and the craftsmen won't know her presence.
So, it is easy for her to enter the room secretly.
She directly passed through the door like a ghost.
'Woww!!!It is good to be a ghost.
Heehee!!!hee!!!I could simply move here and there without any cost.
I can even steal some food and no one will know about it.'
Sila giggled as she thought of stealing some of her favourite foods since she was a ghost.
She looked around the room.
'That Louis guy was right.It is really beautiful.'
She thought about Louis as she walked around the room observing each and every paintings.
Most of the paintings were about the protectors. Some of the paintings showed their gallant achievements while some of them showed their coming age ceremony.There were also them protecting the Wallonians together from some hideous creatures.
'So, the paintings is all about protectors.
It seems the Royal Family had a close relation with them.
But there are only paintings about the five protectors. What about the sixth one? Did everyone forgot about him that easily?'
She felt sad for the sixth protector.
She again walked across a dozen of similar paintings.
Suddenly her steps halted in front a painting.
She couldn't believe what she saw.
The painting before her showed a man who was a half snake. He was soaked in blood as he triumphantly stamp the monster under his feet. A devilish smirk adorned his face.
THE SNAKE LORD!!!!!
Sila got closer to the painting and she started tracing her fingers over the painting.
She felt her Snake Lord in the painting.
His face was clear in the painting.
'Finallyyyy!!!!!'
Her heart brimmed with happiness as she saw him.
She had thought that she would dream of him again but he never visited her dreams after that day.
'But his eyes!!!!!'
'I have seen it somewhere'
'Where did I saw those eyes?'
She was busy wondering where she saw that eyes that she forgot to concentrate on his face.
That means again she forgot to see his face.
His eyes captured her attention.
She suddenly heard someone calling her name.
"Sila, please wakeup. Don't punish me like this sweetheart"
That voice was lined with sadness and fear.
Seems like that person was crying.
'Who is this person crying for me like this?'
Suddenly she again felt her head swaying.
She again fell down as darkness surrounded her.
