Chapter 17 - Drews First Encounter With Edith

"Well, it's sort of a very long story but it would usually make people unhappy about me and who i am. The ancestral curse i bear is quite painful and disturbing to know of because it transforms me into a monster and in the process all i feel is excruciating pain in my body and in my soul too. So, i decided to venture out in the search for the meaning and the reasons for it. I discovered the family trees of the elvian ancestors that my family didn't disclose to me at first. I did numerous researches and countless attempts to reach out to different worlds, there was an organization for the conservation of precious antiques from ancient times and the largest corporation called the Petal Corps owned it; during my intricate research and studying i discovered that they also took the Blue Stone Pendulum under their possession and as i researched into the elemental properties of this stone it was understood that it supposedly carries a much potent arcane which reassembled the elf magic. It was way too over-priced for me to afford so i waited until somebody bought it during the grand auction event that only takes place every three years, many renounced individuals of high ranking from different systems visit this place during this time; like sorcerers, collectors, high ranked agents and many more. An elite lady was able to purchase it in the auction and it appeared that she didn't seem to have any knowledge of what it really was and where it came from. It would usually just lie there in her lavish apartment. So, i sort of hacked into her hi-tech home and well, borrowed it? I guess.." she took a deep breath knowing this is where Master Ro would scrutinize-judge her in the presence of Lilos conscience.

"IT WAS ONLY BECAUSE IT BELONGED TO THE CREEK GARDEN, clearly because that's where the elfs were from, and i promised to myself then it was just an act of borrowing and not theft. And so that's how i picked the Blue Stone Pendulum from her apartment and it has been with me since then." she knew and wasn't fully sure that Master Ro would be proud of her for something like this. 

Master Ro said nothing but she was writing all of it down on a notepad that appeared before her in the snap of her fingers and while doing this she said.

"Well you know.... Lilo..... I've have noticed that you're a very brave girl and an extra-ordinary creation of God and I'm so glad that you took the courage to speak the truth to me." Master Ro said to Lilo.

"So, will you tell me why the curse fell on the elvian people and if there's a way to undo it."

"A very long time ago, there was a God who once fell in love with a human being from Earth and as he descended to earthly realms to visit her, he was completely drawn towards the human woman. In those times God's were forbidden from appearing to a human and revealing to them their true form which he rebelled against and exposed himself in the romantic and vulnerable ways and so the celestial realms and supreme judgement closed the gates to heaven for him and commanded him to remain on earth as a human with the human that he loved. During this time the elfs had already spread across the realms of earth; procreating with the human kind as their population, although discreet, spawned slowly with time. At this time Elvians were of the highest divination of the mystical and celestial consciousness, among the human societies, we were connected by a series of mysteries of supernatural phenomenons that humans couldn't solve most often. Most of them didn't believe in it and so it was acclaimed as fantastical and inconceivable. We were held responsible by ways of nature and natural alchemy to uncover the mystery of an imbalance in the scales of alchemy and the energy that celestial elements spoke, it was a curse in the human world, that the humans may have caused. We needed to lift and undo it, in order to help every living being in return, so they could all live in co-existence, and most importantly, peacefully." Master Ro sighed and displayed a hint of sadness..yet she was calm and soft about all these heavy burdens.

"Do you understand now, Lilo." she smiled compassionately as her face drew sentimental emotions of wisdom and sadness from ages ago.

"Wow. Love seems like an important matter of element in all senses of living regardless of the era it is in. i begin to imagine how you're so tolerant and calm about bearing the burdens of other species. Like humans. How unnerving. You do aquire a different type of a patience, clearly." Lilo joked yet expressed slight agitation from all the heavy load of information about the human ancestral burdens that she did not deserve to bear.

"We cannot hold on to prejudices that are beyond our control by nature, it would only mean lesser of us and speak of ones lack of capabilities and calmness is what defines us by nature, so my dear you must learn to apply it in that manner. Anyway, now I've had enough of secrets out of you for today, i want to tell you that we have also restored some of the enchantments and magic back into this forest - this unites us with most of the enchanted beings that wander here and in the forest. This is our home and it has been for thousands of years we fall as the guardians and the protectors of the realm, and it is indeed very much hidden and restricted from the different worlds. All the portals into the human worlds and celestial realms of heaven begins here, at the medium point between two different worlds. Any other elf being, fairy or enchanted individuals that need to pass regardless of the kingdom they're from, would have to travel through the Creek Garden, as the source of worldly portals lie here. And in case you wonder, everything is now is running smoothly with the support of our systematic synchronicity." Master Ro took a deep breath and finally gazed at Lilo again with a smile on her face. 

Lilo looked around and suddenly without her realizing it before, there was a mass commute system in front of her, a busy marketplace that followed until the distance her eyesight could reach, everything filled with hints of enchantments, a farm quaintly running by the creek was the most heartwarming sight to see, and somehow now, there were more people of a mixed diaspora and race, commuting all around her. She felt a sense of achievement and joy inside her.

Suddenly, Master Ro was alerted by a bright blue light on the sky that blasted and faded away into a jittery sight.

"Stand back, it looks like a magical attack." Her staff was ready as she was apprehensive and ready for anything that comes their way.

"I think thats nothing Master Ro, maybe somebody was trying to access the portal through a Virtual Passage. It was a glimpse of a virtual sky experiencing a major reality glitch."

"What in the world is a virtual sky"

"Oh, i made that up just now, it's just a abbreviation for the meaning of what actually caused it. Im sure elvians have never heard of a thing called the LED televisions"

"Oh please do enlighten me, Lilo."

 

Back at the Virtual Station -

Drew was now attempting to access the realm that Lilo was in, he was in fact inquisitive about whether she was alright or not, he also tried to enter it in the worst possible ways but his pre-generated ID didn't allow him to as it wasn't a reality that he should be consciously present in. Sometimes a system was not always free, and accessible to everybody because, for some, sometimes, it should and does not exist.

"Crap! This doesn't seem to work. Maybe i should've just told her about us and not let her leave in that manner." He sensed a feeling of guilt taking over since he was all alone and he had no idea what he should do now. 

"And what of my destiny and purpose if i am left with none. Shucks! Im sure there's something i can do." he kept flickering through different PowerPoint to understand the structures of this virtual hologram.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in front of him, he was petrified by the light as he could not see clearly because it was very bright and resonant, inside a dark and empty space. The sounds of this made him cringe because it screamed and screeched of a different energetic presence.

"Hello Drew..I believe that is your name from Earth. I'm Edith, an angel of life and of death, sometimes known as the guardian of the angels and of the demons." Edith appeared to Drew while levitated on the ground by another source of power and glanced at Drew in curiosity as his squint eyes were still under the shock of this sudden bright light in his presence.

"Huh, an angel of life and death. How can you be the guardian for both the demons and the angels and Wait, am i dead?" Drew turned his chair and rubbed his eyes and slowly brought it back to its normal state.

"Sigh! Well not all angels are innocent and not all demons stand evil. Thats where i am involved." Edith said with a hint of contorted patience for his questions as though she didn't actually have the time to chit chat with a potential mundane human being.

"Oh okay." he said and continued to stare at Edith as he expected more versatile explanations and stories from her..

"You are not dead, but sometime in this frame of time, you were about to face the challenges of death that could cause the deadliest destruction of all time, in all of the universe. Whatever physics in left in here is all but magic now since our world have access to it, henceforth." Edith responded slowly, as she settled for the comfort that surrounded her spheres of tolerance.

"So you're here to rescue me?" He stood from his chair and asked Edith like he knew nothing nor did he have any clue about this unnerving Virtually generated system.

"Yes, in a way, but you're not very aware of who you may be and therefore you are lost in this unknown and dark path. Hence, i am here to provide you guidance for the ascension you will experience, into the realms of heaven." She replied whilst her hand was not on her waist and the other one just about to twirl in order to perform a celestial magic in front of him.

"Thing is, I cannot give you too much information about the different horizons of a very twisted and parallel union but i am here to tell you that I have come to save you from it even if my life depends on it. Angels don't have too many choices, and most often, that is the pain in the suffering most of us fall from, and in the process become demons and types of them now in ranking order." she explained as her eyes fluttered and glistened in certain pain not many humans would be able to spot easily.
