The Ancients World

~~~(Time: 11:06 PM)~~~

Sally and I make our way back to our room and enjoy the soft bed as we\'re mentally exhausted from staying awake for two days straight. Coming from Alforza to here fucks up the sleeping schedule. When we wake up tomorrow morning and leave.

It\'ll be the middle of the night in Alforza. Now that I have the ability to teleport anywhere I want, it doesn\'t make travel hard. That\'s one of the major hindrances Sally and I have encountered. The amount of time it\'s taken to get from one place to another.

Regardless of flying or not. There is no way you can make an argument flying is superior to teleportation. Sure it looks better, but teleportation is the best way to move.

"What do you think Taaro and the others are up to right now in Maero? I\'m not sure if they\'re ready for a war with The Regaliance Kingdom, but I do know they have the heart and souls of people who want change... Do you think that\'s enough..."

Sally has been thinking a lot about our future involvement in the upcoming war. I told The Des\'merta I\'d help them, but I wouldn\'t win their war for them. Personally, I think they\'ll win. But their use of Rahab is going to cause trouble.

When The Last Levithian finds out it was manipulated by The Des\'merta, it\'ll want retribution. And there is no way it\'ll be something small. He\'ll want lives in exchange.

"It\'s not The Des\'merta I\'m worried about... It\'s their use of Rahab... If they use The Last Levithan to destroy the capital city of The Regaliance Kingdom, they\'ll definitely win the war... Rahab will want payment for such a trick..."

The tiredness is clear in our voices, and she\'s quick to run a hand down my back. Our armor and clothes are unequipped. One of my favorite things is when she gently runs her nails down my back.

I also really like it when they go down my back roughly, but that\'s only reserved for a special time. The Des\'merta are good people but are underpowered and old-fashioned. That\'s a losing combo against an enemy like they\'re after.

Rahab will probably want an explanation from me since I know about what\'s going on. Maybe he\'ll even want something from me for allowing this to happen. But I\'m not a God or a King. I can\'t force or stop something from happening because I don\'t like it.

That\'ll be the height of hypocrisy for me. I\'m always telling people to do what they want, and be who they want. To survive and thrive.

If I try to stop The Des\'merta from using Rahab, it\'ll be like saying I have a say or authority over their decisions. In some sick sense, maybe I do have power like that. But it\'s not something I want to use. They\'re responsible for their own actions.

"There was a time when we\'d never do something like that... Remember... Always on our own, only helping the few... Not the many... My only recollection of something like this is The Dryad Kingdom..."

That reminds me of a simpler time... When everything wasn\'t so complicated and distorted... Hard to follow... Sometimes, I think I\'ve devolved from that time... What does that say about me?

"I know... From what I heard last, The Dryads are looking for a new place to conquer since The Fall Of Bellvia. Now that their enemy has perished, the search for a new home is underway."

When I heard The Dryads will be starting wars in hopes of new lands to call their own, I couldn\'t help chuckling a little to myself. They seemed ready to accept something different. A lesser path if I could describe it.

Bellvia was responsible for their fall, and now that Bellvia has fallen itself. It stands to reason they\'re looking for a new purpose of sorts.

"I\'m sure you\'ve heard the stories of The Fairy Kingdom and their history with me. Most of this was before we met, but I remember when I revived The Holy Willow Tree with some of my own Divine Power... It changed a lot of lives that day..."

A burst of light laughter leaves her lips, and I\'m a bit confused as to why she finds this funny. She sees my confusion and plays with my chin.

"For all the exploits you already accomplished at the time, I never believed I\'d meet you. Let alone know you... I thought you\'d be like any other powerful man. Abusive, arrogant, and wrathful. But you\'re not. Well, not abusive and wrathful."

I do tend to be arrogant from time to time. But that\'s what happens when you gain a lot of power in a short amount of time. It\'s not long before the silence between us makes us even more tired mentally, and I\'m soon asleep.

~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: The City Of Jaerey, The Kingdom Of Laasir, The Islands Of Haestar)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:49 AM)~~~

My eyes slowly open, and I look at the window which the sun is shining through. A sigh escapes my lips as I lean up. I look over, and Marcus isn\'t in his bed. I\'m betting he stayed in Kelly\'s room last night. Not that I blame him. The girl is a looker.

Today is the day Cera heads back to the place known as Alforza. It was nice seeing my brother again. I stand up from my bed and head for the bathroom. Hoping in the shower and cleaning up my own body. I\'m the only one left out of my siblings without a partner.

Way to make the oldest feel inferior, guys...

"They always find a way to annoy me... Even when they\'re not here... How the hell do they do that..." It\'s a trick I\'ve been wanting to master for a long time, but I\'ve never gotten a handle on it. Cera is purposeful when he does it.

Marcus is doing it on accident and doesn\'t know he\'s annoying me. Which is worse in some cases. I finish up in the shower and make my way out of the room. Heading downstairs for breakfast time, and I see Cera and Sally just sitting down at a booth.

I make my way over and take a seat next to my brother.

"This is the earliest I\'ve ever seen you get up, sis."

That\'s a joke in poor taste. I\'ve gotten up way earlier on several occasions. Especially when I was chasing my dream of being an actress. Which, y\'know. Failed.

"Be quick to order. With more and more Players waking up, the food down where will run out."

Yeah, yeah. I know that.

~~~(Time: 8:34 AM)~~~

We\'re all outside now, and Marcus is rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. Kelly is next to him, more attached than she should be, considering their age difference. But I know what they\'re up to, and I guess it doesn\'t matter at this point.

Sally stands next to me, and I look at my sister Hailey. I can see she wants to say something, and I have to resist the urge to make this a brother-sister rivalry thing.

"The eldest sister Hailey... Just know that if you ever need anything from me, don\'t be afraid to reach out. I can easily come and go now..."

Instead of saying anything in response to me, she rushes over and wraps me in a hug. I didn\'t think Hailey missed me this much. But I guess our relationship has gotten much better over this last year. We\'re closer now than ever before.

I hug her back, and she lets go soon enough. I use my Angelic Teleportation, and we\'re back in Alforza in a flash of light.
