Chapter One Hundred Thirty-Five:
Lost. Helpless. Death.
This is the feeling that consumed me but what else can I do? If this is the only way I could save the man that I love and the lives of those innocent. If only I can live my life as I wanted but I can't. Now, all I can ask please dear Gods and Goddesses. Give me another life that will fulfill my dreams and be with the man that I love most. Just please, release me with this cursed. Please, I beg you.

Cullen Village Ruin
"We don't have much time." suddenly Atlas breaks the silence. "The dark waves getting bigger and bigger and we don't have a chance to stop it if we don't do anything now."
We all look to it and he was right, the dark waves are getting bigger and the voices of the Witches and Warlock gradually decreasing. We beginning to lose them all and we don't have much time to think or to decide, we need to move and do something about it.
"Revertere ad me Azaba Hydria." I casted and from my hands the jar slowly shown that everyone was surprised seeing it coming back.
"You're the one who took it?" Navina surprisingly asked.
"Yes, indeed. I did but I have my reason why I took it and this isn't the right time to talk about it." I answered. "And now all we need to do is—no!" suddenly pain consumed me and I fall into my knees.
"Siara!" Haimon, Harkan and Norward's voice was the last thing that I've heard before my sight goes dark and I lost my consciousness.
…
Somewhere…
"Wagana om ngan likbaima nga garlu an toi, nitngu dihin o map nir wanggana langipi nga yangkan singgipag."
I immediately turned to the one who speaks up and was so shocked to see who that was. "Second Princess Rishna." I spoke. "What are you doing here?"
"Merwa Mountain is a holy place given from the God, our creator, the God of Magic and Spells. And being here once again after such a long, long years. A thousand perhaps… or most likely a trillion years ago, this place gives us all a wonderful memory until they came. And owned this whole mountain before they gave life to Bela and let him destroy the whole Cullen Village," she sadly stated. "And finally! This whole place is saved but still there is no guarantee that we are save enough to feel relief because it isn't. And you know what I mean, Lady Siara."
I take a very deep breath before I stand up and walk at the edge where she was standing. From the point of her view, the whole Manu and Edelweiss Clan can be seen above the mountain. And now I can see it too, and death is also a part of it.
"Why am I here?"
"Because, he wants to see you," she replied and I know exactly who she was talking about.
"Is this a dream?" I asked instead.
"Kind of." She spoke. "Hilda hitka koa latguna ngan singgima koa tori ta takima taki."
"Nguk onnoga…" I deeply sighed as a look at the horizon and I already remember what did happen to me. Pain, consumed me before I lost consciousness and I know my husband and the others were waiting for me to wake up but now I know what I have to do. "Wish I have a choice. Rope nganlaika ok an yangsi raphakama pangu lintupu an nga mangnua gan-nayugu as mina. I have to go."

Kier's Residence
"Princess Rishna!" Truman immediately came to my aid after I've done my sudden trance and I really don't expect it to happen mostly when I went to Merwar Mountain, the place where evil had taken over but was now free because of the awakening of Edelweiss's memories. I even met and talk to her even for a short while but, the thing is these dark waves that beginning to consume everything and everyone. I know it only means one thing… "We need to help them."
"But, haven't you been able to use your power for so long time? Might be hard for you to use power once we get out of here and help those people who are fighting outside?"
"I know you're worried. But you don't have. I can use my powers without any trouble. I promise." And I really need to go there to face the one thing I run away.

Edelweiss Kingdom
Edelweiss Palace
After securing Siara's safety after she fainted, I immediately returned to our kingdom to respond to our King's summoned. Even though I don't want to leave my wife alone, I don't have a choice but to go and done my duties as a Duke of the Edelweiss Clan.
"Uncle Norward." I called him as soon as our meeting with the King ended. "I need to talk to you."
Norward stops and faces me. "I know what you are going to talk about but, all the things that you've heard from Lady Siara was all true and all we have to do is win this war. Darkness was already consuming everything and we don't have much time to talk about what we have done about the truth, because this is what we know the best thing to do. And I hope you do understand it clearly, Haimon."
"Fine. I do understand it but that's not what I'm about to ask, it is about the thing that suddenly disappeared after Siara lost consciousness? What was that? Why does that seem so important to all of you?" I seriously asked.
Norward seriously stares at me before he answered. "That Jar is the only way we can find out who was the reincarnation of her brother but then once again it vanished. And until Lady Siara still unconscious we don't have a chance to know who he was."
What he said really worries me, because no one knows what's going on with Siara and it really scares me.
