Chereads / Death's Son / Chapter 10 - Nowhere And Nephilim

Chapter 10 - Nowhere And Nephilim

Seth stood up on the balcony, leaning on the guard railing and staring down at the group of people who were having a Gargantuan merry making in the lounge below.

He kinda liked the way this team co operated. They all were jolly and friendly looking except for two green creatures,and Tristan, who sat a distance off, talking to only themselves. They looked very much alike, only for being differentiated by their hair. One had white hair and the other black hair. They seemed to be from the same kind.

Tristan stood by a sculpture, sipping something from his goblet and watching the merry making with cold eyes.

The team was dominated by males,as in the females were fewer. They all looked like they didn't even exist.

"Hey,there!!" a familiar voice came from nearby.

Walking towards him was Nienna. She looked as gorgeous as ever.

"Hey!!" Seth smiled. That girl wiped Tristan's warning clean out of his head.

"What are you doing up here??" Nienna asked leaning against the guard rail,their shoulders touching slightly.

"Watching the merry making!!" Seth said,looking into her beautiful eyes.They were so enticing.

"It's like a daily routine here!! Merry making is a huge part of us!!"

"Oh I see!!" he nodded.

"So now are you going to tell me your name??" she asked.

"I don't have a name!! Well,atleast, I can't remember my name!!But you can call me Seth!!Honald and Siofra found me that one!!"

"That pair are one jolly one!!" she commented, " but I like the sound of that name!! Seth!!Seth!!" she repeated the name, savouring the sound of it.

The two stood there in silence. Seth couldn't help but think of something to ask her.

"Do you mind telling me about this group??" Seth finally spoke, breaking the awkward silence that was sitting on them.

"Well, this group is mostly made of Nephilim!!" came the reply.

"What are those??" Seth asked, puzzled by that huge word.

"The servants of the Maker looked down upon the earth and admired the Maker's creations. They couldn't help but desire the beautiful creatures that roamed the Earth, so they came down upon the Earth and found themselves wives,who bore them children, who are Nephilim!!"

"Then....."

"The Maker cast the servants who had become intimate with the mortals down into the Underworld,where they were to await there punishment,that would come millenia later!!"

"What happened to the Nephilim??"

"They,too,were cast into Nowhere!!Somewhere they couldn't leave but had to strive to live!!"

"Are they all still alive??"

"Nope!!Celestus, our home,was attacked by the Sons Of Death!!They came with a lot of power and we,though immortal, couldn't stand a chance against them. They killed all our kindred" tears started to well up in her eyes while she spoke, "taking them all down to The Underworld,to their father!!"

"Come on!! Don't cry!!!" Seth soothed.

He didn't know what to do to her. He was about to hug her but Tristan's warning flashed back into his head. He immediately looked at Tristan who had been watching them all along.He didn't want to see this gorgeous creature cry. So, ignoring Tristan's warning, he held her into a warm hug,her tears made his shirt wet.

"Don't cry!! Don't cry!!Be strong!!" Seth stroked her hair. It was super soft.

He guessed she too was a Nephilim.
