Chapter 8 - 8. Mirror of Life

Rayd watch the girl intently as she placed her other hand on Nora tommy, she navigate and move her hand expertly around Nora's stomach as if finding the trace of the poison she inhaled through her lungs, she kept moving her hand upward as a bright light illuminates her other hand on Nora's forehead, after repeatedly moving around her stomach, she moves her hand up to her chest then to her throat, small amount of blood was coming out of her nose as black air was coming out of Nora's nose, the girl cough out a mouthful of blood as the light illustrating Nora's forehead dimmed. She fell to the floor sitting from her kneeling position trying to catch her breath which was coming out out faster than normal. Rayd heart was beating twice as fast when he saw the black smoke like air coming out of Nora's nose, his fear intensify as he look at young girl trying to wipe her nose with the back of her hand, Rayd hand her a piece of his clothing which he loose from his rope, she takes it glancing at Rayd before using it to wipe her nose properly then her lips.

" Do you think she'll be okay, she inhaled a handful of that", Rayd asked still looking worried.

"Her body needs rest, her system are weak and they might stop functioning for while". The girl answers

Rayd wipes his tears looking around the room they're in, there was no bed except some small pillars which was used as sits and a lot of flower vases decorating the room.

"Can you check the rooms and see if we can get somewhere to lay her down", Rayd said taking his eyes off Nora to look at the girl, Nora's breath was stable as her chest rise and fall at normal pace but was still unconscious.

The girl nod her head as she stands slowly and walk around carefully down the corridor attached to the room, they were alot of doors arranged in a straight line but no one have a bed in it except for lot of gold and other unknown stuff to her, she opened the last door at the far end of the corridor fearing she won't find a bed and her master was still laying on the floor, to her surprise, there was a big stoned pillar in rectangular shape with many leaves made on top of the stoned pillar at the far end of the room, the room was large with different type of flowers growing at every part of the room, the flowers are arranged in rows and some are in circles in different designs and shape decorating the floor like a flower garden giving the room a calm and peaceful state, the girl smile as she takes in the site of the room, this is exactly was her master needed, peace and calm air for her system, she goes back to Rayd and inform him of her finding, he takes Nora in his arms as he head towards the room, he place her down gently on the leaves which where surprisingly soft. Rayd looks around the room surprised by how cold it feels and way too calm and peaceful, he walks around the room gently seeing as his sister relax and looks like she sleeping as she exhaled softly.

They both look around the calm environment carefully looking for nothing in particular, the walls in all the rooms she checked were mostly paint in white, while some have a mixture of light blue or golden, but this room was paint in soft blue with strip's and shades of white and golden. There was a medium sized mirror at the far end of the room with many tulips and daffodils lapping on it as if they grew at the side's of the mirror, the girl was curious and called out to Rayd in low voice who was busy examining the flowers surrounding a palm sized crystal at the middle of the flowers, and each flower column has the same sized crystal at it middle.

Rayd walks towards the end where the mirror was with light steps afraid not to step on any flower even thou there was a passage way between those flowers. His breath hitched at the back of his throat, he knows this mirror, every ancient kingdom has it, it was same with the one in his mother's chamber back home, the difference is that theirs is surrounded by pearls and the sea shiniest piece while this was surrounded by tulips, daffodils and crystals at the middle of each flower, the girl watched Rayd with a mix of reaction in her eyes which shifts from understanding to curiosity.

Of course Rayd knew what type of mirror that is, it's called the Mirror of Life, it can grant one and can also take one, he always saw his mom cough out a mouthful of blood when ever she uses the mirror, it take up all the energy the user has, distrupt their state of mind or get stuck in it forever. Depending on what you bargain for, The mirror can show you whatever you want to know depending on how long, where or complicated task you wish to know, Indeed he knew it was always in exchange of something dear or useful to the user,his mom always uses her blood which drain most of her energy, he don't know what else to use cox the only thing dear to him right now was his stster, is it worth knowing what is going on in Paciras, he needs to see his mum, he can't take all this by himself, his merely an adult and never find himself in such situation, his mind was in Jumble as he looks towards his sister sleeping peacefully.

"I love you Anora, am sorry", he whispered softly as he looks towards the mirror ready to give it what he has.
