Snow. All around was snow. The wind was loud. With the wind ca the heavy and cold snowflakes that landed on my face. Snowflakes were supposed to be soft, yet they stung when hit my face. The wind was so strong that it was practically impossible to open ones eyes. The scene was the sa as a scene one would see in the North.
I assud I was at the snowy plains in the Norths mountain pass, the place where I lost what was most precious to .
My cloak billowed in the wind. I wiped the snow off my face then looked to my side. I saw a maiden in a white dress sitting at the cliff, kicking her feet dangling off said cliff. Her dancing white hair blended in with the snow. I couldnt see her face; but nonetheless, I was certain that I didnt know her. She sat at the cliff and gently kicked her feet as she looked into the distance.
I instinctively went over and draped my cloak over her shoulders. I sat down next to her. Before I could see her face, she had already turned to look at . With a smile, she asked, I really dont want to go near the world in your heart, after all. Why do you keep thinking of this place? Does it hold so sort of aning to you?
I guess its where everything began as well as where everything ends. Co to think of it, I went through lots of things here and lost lots of things Nevertheless, youre very similar to my Mommy Vyvyan. Why are you here? What exactly did I go through? I just rember the conscious in the spring taking control of my body, and then and then I arrived here after returning.
Too many questions.
The woman shook her head with a smile. She combed her long white hair. Had it not been for her blood-red eyes, shed be unnoticeable in the snow.
I didnt continue asking questions. She pondered to herself for a mont then replied, I shall answer each of your questions, then. First, this place is the place you have the strongest attachnt to, which is also the place that you consider to be the most aningful. With that said, due to it being the most aningful place to you, its simple to identify. This place is a phantasmal place. I rely turned it into an accessible place. Your conscious exists in tandem with mine, so I went through your subconscious a little and then created this place, where we can have a normal conversation. By the way, isnt it obvious why Im similar to Vyvyan?
She clenched her teeth. While she acknowledged the fact, it was a reality that incredibly displeased: Im a counterfeit, a clone, a fake image. Im a mana entity that the Galadriel Tribe nurtured using Vyvyans blood. Vyvyan refused to beco God. As a result, I replaced her. Im a shadow and clone created from dark elves magic; hence, I can never appear in sunlight. All I can do is live in the Tower of Heaven for eternity as a shadow and a replacent.
No wonder why youre so similar to Mom.
I nodded. She stood up and peered at the mountains in the distance. With a vigorous wave of her hand, the mountain in the distance crumbled, causing a loud explosion sound in addition to snow slowly toppling down. Her mana really was on Moms level. Actually, I should say, thats Gods power for you.
You can consider Vyvyans younger sister or daughter. Either way, Im your senior.
What shall I call you, then?
Thats not important, not that I have a na anyway, she answered. Tone serious, she exclaid, Havent you always wanted to be a fair and just Hero King? Let ask you this: do you think that this is fair? I replaced Vyvyan when nobody would. I lived on as a shadow, yet she ca to without any explanation, killed and absorbed . Do you think this is fair?! Is it?! What, she can kill as she pleases just because Im her replacent?!
The temperature rapidly dropped. She gazed into the darkness and snow before her. She thundered, I want to continue living, as well!! I may be a re shadow, a re clone, but I still want to live!! I want to live even if nobody knows or cares about . I want to see sunrise. I want to see the animals and creatures in the forest. I want to see the sunset on the water surfaces ripples! Why? Why did that woman randomly kill when I never did anything wrong?! I want. To live!!!
I want to live! I really want to live. That wasnt just her speaking. It was a heavy blow that ca from within my heart. I felt it over and over again. And each ti, it shook my heart.
She balled her fists. Two trails of tears of blood coursed down her face: My body was ripped piece by piece starting from my arm. This mana may belong to her, but the pain I suffer cos from myself! She couldnt absorb all of my mana. She, therefore, spat a portion into the spring, subsequently creating . Put another way, Im just a conscious or a spirit, if you like, now.
Thats your real form?
Thats right. This is , nothing but a copy thats pitiful, sad and resentful, a shadow, sothing that doesnt even exist, a clone who wants to live!
She stood up and then took a few big strides. Then, she sat on the ground similarly to a grumpy girl. She stopped talking altogether. I hesitated for a mont before going over to her side. I picked up my cloak from the ground that she shook off and gently draped it over her shoulders again. Form hunched, she muttered under her breath, Leave. You just have to continue along this path. Once you leave, youll be able to escape this place. Since youve returned, I cant continue controlling your body anymore. My little revenge has co to an end. Oh, right, I hurt your wife. Im sorry about that. Shes innocent; however, I just furious. Shell be fine, nevertheless. Go hug your wife and comfort her, and everything will be fine. I feel no guilt for what I did to Vyvyan, though. As a matter of fact, I will hate her forever.
I looked over in the direction she gestured toward. I would be reunited with my family once I headed down; nonetheless, I didnt head straight down. I caressed her head. Softly, I said, Sorry. I know that its pointless for to apologise now, but part of the reason that Mom killed you was due to , so Im still very sorry to you about it. I know that I will definitely have to pay the price.
Can you let kill you, then?
No. I must live on for my wives and children.
Move aside, then. Ill use your body to kill Vyvyan.
I cant allow you to do that, either, for shes my mother.
So what are you saying? Dont waste my ti with impractical things. Go. I dont want to see you again. Youre very similar to her.
I just want to say, Im very, very sorry.
