The real time image pulled was broadcasted all over the demon realm. All the demons stop what they have been doing and looked up with confused expression. When they realize it was the already destroyed Fairy realm, they have their mouths hang wide open.
The very place the strong of light donned on is the courtyard of the Faery realm. From there, the real time image focused on the scattered ashes and ragged clothes of the royal guards.
Until they saw one spot where a human shaped figure was formed.

"Kyra," in the depths of Kyra's consciousness a voice in the distance called her name. She continued her slumber.
"Kyra," the voice repeated again. This time the voice draws nearer. Kyra stirred.
"Kyra, it's time to wake up from your slumber." It was like a pair of strong hands picked up and pulled her consciousness from all the way down.
Her pair of azure blue eyes opened. She gasped for breath and doubled up in pain. Her eyes just met a very bright light that almost blind her. Her chest hurt, as if her ribs contracted to pressure her lungs for air.
She got up and staggered. Dizziness overtook her and she almost collapsed on her knees.
"Where….?"
After shaking her head to clear her mind, she studied her surroundings. It was a place she doesn't recognize but a fresh pain of familiarity struck her. She stared at her feet. Disintegrated ashes and tattered clothes littered the place. She was looking around the dirt until a familiar jade caught her eyes.
It was her mother's amulet jade. She recognized the white lotus design. The intricate weaving techniques that she recognized she used most of the time.
Mother… where is she?
Kyra's head suddenly throbbed. Memories flood into her mind in one go. The sight of Lester's dead body suddenly turn into ashes horrified her. When it was her own mother next, it utterly shocked her to the core.
She was speechless. She stared at the empty place next to her. There was a pile of ashes untouched by the blowing wind.
"Mo – mother?"
Kyra suddenly lose her voice. She knelt in the ground and cupped the ashes in the ground. Her chest felt so empty. Her mind is blank.
She was in a state of complete emptiness. She did not know how to react. She doesn't understand. Should she laugh because after all that happened her father is finally dead while she was still here standing? Or would she cry because of the bitter price of her survival is the death of her race?
Kyra chuckled dryly. She put the ashes closed to her heart and tried to bury her face in the ashes. As if doing this will let her feel the warmth of her mother's embrace.
"Why bring me back?" Kyra's voice broke into a sob.
"It's better if I'm dead! Why did you have to bring me back?!" she screamed at the top of her hoarse voice and constricted throat.
She did not know who she was talking to. She only know that being who called out to her is now watching her.
"Bring back my mother! Bring back Lester! Bring back everyone!" She thrashed around and cried her heart out.
This extreme burst of emotion caused the ground to shake and the clouds in the split sky darkened. Its like the whole fairy realm shake in accordance to her emotions. Because of its destruction, the realm cried and expressed its grief to the dead fairies.
"Bring them back! Bring everyone back! Bring me back to them!"
Kyra's outburst was unprecedent. Especially of the devastating effect it brought. The ground cracked and branches rised up from the ground. The thick branches swallowed everything and conquer anything. Even the ray of light could not escape from its might.
Kyra did not calm down and continued her thrashing and wailing. Strangely, the being who bring her back patiently waited for her to calm down. The thick branches shockingly resembled the World Tree.
But the sap produced by the branch tree is poisonous, dangerous and lethal. One look from its blood red liquid, everyone can tell they will die if they dare to touch it.
It took her three days and three nights to calm down. After she calmed her emotions, she did not waste time to prepare for her mother's memorial grave. Her eyes looks expressionless and dead.
At the sight of the thick tall branches covering the whole ground, she coldly stated,
"Begone,"
All the towering branches slithered back to the ground. Because of the lack of materials, Kyra had no choice but to use the branches to commerate her mother. After she made a paradise like greenhouse with vines and greenery leaves that has white lotus blooming in every corner. She finally stopped and stared at the sky.
Kyra is aware of the thousand eyes staring at her. This perturb her anger and she bursted out.
"What do you want?!"
Suddenly, the clouds parted. The sand that covered most of the land started to drain. As if the ground has full of holes in them. Right there and then, a scene so horrible it tore her apart appeared in front of Kyra.
Everywhere she looked a remnant of destruction and wreckage is everywhere. Tattered clothes and ashes piled everywhere. But what aggrieved her the most are the burned and crisp bodies scattered in the streets. Some are forming a line in the winding road, as if they are on their way to migrate but failed to escape. Most are coupled together as if they are willing to die in each other's arms.
Kyra fell silent in this scene. She did not move from her spot. After a while, the light from the hole shone down in front of her. It move in a straight path, as if guiding her to go to a place.
Kyra absentmindedly followed. She was struck by the familiarity of the cliffs and the entrance granting cave. A heavy feeling sank in her heart. She impatiently run towards the center of the magical forest.
