Selena's Daughter (The Prophecy) - Episode 6

 

"Let loose the hounds of war,
Let the dreadfire of the Dark Priestess rain down from angry skies
For brother will slaughter brothers
For friends will murder friends
For mothers will turned against their children
And father against their blood
For men will lick the dust which the Dark Goddess match
As the great horns sound
The prophets do not lie,
There, Selena will give birth to thier saviour
Upon that mighty mountain
Her child will put an end of all the evil ones.
She will be the destiny and doom of Darken
She will be asked to choose her destiny
The child of Selena will be powerful
Only she can bring the end of the evil ways and unite the region".

Grace read it carefully then look at her mother. "This has already happened . I have chosen the right path making me to choose my destiny. Is this all the prophecy says or is there more?"

"There is more, the great, great, great grandson of Omen who had wrote this prophecy was shown a terrible vision. He became ill and although he was a vates, a gifted seer, he believed his sight was failing and was unsure of the mean. On his death bed he entrusted this second prophecy, which he gave it a name 'The Prophecy Of Omens' to the Drakins

. Even though he was unsure he believed it might be a warning and did not want to take it to his grave". Selena used magic to make a second parchment appear. It was torn, dirty and old with many scrawls and crossing outs. Grace looked up at Selena but shewas staring at the parchment, she seemed remote as though she was no longer really there. Grace read out loud.

"My beloved Anya, I have seen a terrible vision, it is a warning I am sure but it is confused and unclear. I have very little time but I have written as much as I can. Keep this safe though it's not finished, I fear the words will have meaning in the days I will never see.

'Night will threaten Day when shadows fall across lands

Two souls will join consumed by hate,

And unkindness of darkness will covered across the land.

At Darkin she will come

The once and everlasting saviour,

With Selena at her side she will stand, for freedom and for peace.

In all lands, song will be sung of the savior and the white Goddess.

I fear the everlasting night, when Mary walks again.

Can love prevail against such hate?

Courage, Magic and Strength combined could hope to make a stand.

But what hope is there against such a terrible fate?"

At the bottom of the Prophecy was another scrawled note.

"My gift fails me, I cannot see past the terror that awaits us all. Anya, my dearest love, take this Book of Omen to your kin and remember me always".

Grace read aloud and look back at Selena, a little bit confuse. 

"Do you understand what is written?" Selena asked.

"No, not all but I think the Night that will threaten the Day is you and the Dark Goddess, Lillian, I don't know know what the two souls consumed by hate is all about, and I am here with you, though am not sure about the songs. And lastly of Mary walking again. I still don't understand that". Grace replied thoughtfully.

"When it is time you will understand. You will have to find the meaning of it by yourself, I am sorry I can't help you".

Grace nodded in understanding and after a little moment later she yawn.

"I know you must be tried with everything that has been revealed to you. Go back to the way you came in before, Isadora is waiting for you. When you have rested well, there is something important that I want to tell you, a secret that has been hidden from you". Selena said. Grace bowed her head and walked back the way she came in. When she came out from the light she saw Isadora sitting by the grass at the entrance, waiting for her. Immediately Isadora saw Grace, she stood up to her feet and smiled at her. "I can see that Selena had told you some of your answers". Isadora said as Grace approach her. "Yes, she told me and also about the Prophecies too". Grace answered as she and Isadora made their way into the innermost part of Drakin where caves were made with gold. "Once we have reach where I am taking you too, you will be given food and then get some rest".

Diana stood facing a wall and was starring at it as if she was being shown something on the wall, but nothing was on it. She slowly turned to face the young man kneeling in front of her, his head bowed. "Why is she not with you my son?" Diana asked the young man kneeling in front of her. "Before I could get there the Dragon of the Drakin has gotten there before me and left with her. As I speak with you she's with the white Goddess". The young man spoke.

"Oh I see". Diana muttered to herself.

"If you would permit me mother, let me go to Drakin and bring her here". The young man  said.

Diana looked at the young man in front of her that was half of her age. His eyes ball were pure white , strapped on his back was a Twin blade swords. His hair, purely white and impossibly long, obscured any of his features he might have was braided haphazardly with beads.

Diana slowly nod her head, "Yes my son, when it's time she will know the ancient truth being hidden away from her". Diana told the young man.

"But won't they tell her the truth?"

"No, my daughter won't dare. It isn't her place to tell. Summon me Erica now".

"Yes mother". He stood up and was about to walk to the door when Diana words stopped him. "When Erica comes I want you to be here also Lucas".

The guy now known as Lucas nod his head and went out of the room.

"Hmmmm, I hope everything works out this time in our favour". Diana thought. "I think it is time for Grace to know the truth".

**************************************

The blind sisters being refer to as the Melarias, were chanting out some spells as the crystal water before them began to bring out some dark smoke. Their chanting increases as so was the smoke a moment later the water started boiling. They then placed their hands into the boiling water , not bothered about the hotness as it boils faster than ever. Their chants increases the more. Then all of a suddenly they withdraw their hands out of the water and the water went back to it's original crystal water.

Darken who had all along been standing and watching them cleared his throat. "What were you showed?" He asked as he studied their faces.

"There is a lady who can help you to defeat the other ones". They told him together.

"Okay, where can I find her? I don't have much time here I need to destroy Grace".

"She is the Princess of Eleanor but you and your men had killed her".

"But you all told me to wipe out everything breathing in Eleanor, I did as I was told. But still yet Grace escaped again".

"We told you that but didn't see that one of them needs to be alive".

"Okay, so how do you intend to use a mere mortal to fight alongside with me?" Darken asked.

"She's a mere mortal Darken. She comes from the lineage of the Sidhe, sisters to to the Elves. Her great grandmother was the Princess of the sidhe. You are to find and bring her dead body here and leave the rest to us". Darken nod his head and left their presence.

Lucas returned with Erica closely behind him and they entered the room Diana was. They both bow as Diana turned to face them. 

"Erica you know the time you have been patiently waiting for has come. It is time for the world to know of your existence".

Erica nodded slightly and Diana continued. "You know what the Third prophecy says. When the great great great grandson of Omen was  shown this last prophecy he was on his death bed. Erica you know that this day would come, the question is, are you ready to face it".

Erica, a young lady of 20 years nodded her head slightly. She was wearing a dress that is white that came to her thighs and a black and red tunic that was tied around her waists with a white sash, the open side-dress reached her knees exposing a fare amount of her fresh legs and sides.

Her flaming reddish orange hair reached past her knees and was held in thick onyx black ribbon, criss-crossing several times before coming to a bow at the end. Flicking a flame coloured bang from her golden eyes, Erica muttered.

"Yes mother".

"Go and bring back Grace. My daughter Lillian is up to something, I can feel it". Diana said and held her hand in front of her and a piece of parchment appeared with the third hidden prophecy written on it. She made an incantation, sealing it, no one expect Selena knows how to unlock the seal. She gave it to Erica who collected it and immediately left the room.

. "Lucas, make sure my two grand-daughters are safe. Bring both of them back in here in on piece. I trust you Lucas you have never let me down in the past neither will you now"

"I will mother".

"You know Lucas, at times I wish that I was the one who gave birth to you. If only I have given birth to only Selena and you then the qorld will be balanced, but that is only a wish Lucas. A wish that can't come to pass no matter how hard I try to redo the past. But no matter how one try to change the past you can't change it you only have to look at the future because that is where your powers is. You can change the future. Go now and take Erica out of here. I can feel Lydia close and I don't want her to meet the both of you here".

Lucas nodded and started making for the door when Diana said once more. "Oh, Lucas be careful son".

He shut the door.
