What Mani saw, was a sight that would forever hunt him till the day he left this world.
He had searched for Neely everywhere and had looked at every part of the village. However, he never expected that he would co and find her here.
This spot used to be their lovers Haven. A sweet spot that they could co and enjoy each other's company.
It was a representation of their care and love.
Under this tree, they had promised each other forever more tis than the word could possibly an.
However, she had now t a fate worse than he could ever imagine.
At the mont, Neely was hanging from the tree with a rope around her neck.
Mani was a hunter. He had killed core Beasts many many tis, with a range looof different thods.
He hoped that it was a lie, but her lifeless eyes spoke more truths than his chest could care to carry.
It was night ti, the twin moons had rippen in the sky, bathing the earth in their silvery light.
Mani rembered that Neely's skin used to be so bright and radiant with life and energy.
Even under the light of the full moons, her Rosy cheeks was clear to see.
However, now her skin was pale as jade. Her eyes were sunk into her eye sockets, revealing only a bit of their black, but most of it was plain white.
The saliva that leaked from her mouth at the pointing of choking-death was already dried.
These were all evidence that she had been hanging here for a while now.
Mani suddenly felt weak to his knees.
His voice quivered as he staggered forward, trying his best to control his overwhelming emotions, as the well of tears slowly dropped their overflow from his eyes.
Pain for him right now, ca in different waves. None of which was physical.
But all of it was hurt like never before.
Slowly and steadily, he finally reached her.
He waved his hand and so of his red Aura energy cut the rope around her neck.
Her dead body fell on him.
She was not that heavy but the combination of both ntal and emotional pain had made his legs weak and he fell to the ground.
He held her in his hands as more tears flowed from his eyes.
Slowly, his hands, still in disbelief, cupped her cheeks.
The cold feel of her skin was the straw that broke the cal's back, and the Dam in his chest broke through.
With a Loud SCREAM, a strong wave of red Aura rushed out of his body.
His scream was deep, loud and hoarse, carrying the excruciating grief of a man that had lost his love.
His scream echoed all through to the village and even off the Vasma steel filled mountains.
There were those villagers in their hos that even thought that it was the roar of a core beast about to attack their village.
However, the Red Aura warriors rushed out of the village with Vasma Steel weapons in hand, all of them ready for a fight.
They arrived to see Mani with his dead wife in his hands.
His tears were so much that a part of his rich red aura tainted them a shade of bitter red.
They all stopped when they saw him, none of them, darring to approach.
How could they?
At the mont, Mani's body was spitting out an amazing amout of red Aura.
But this was not just red aura.
Normal red aura was just red.
However, Mani's own looked like liquid blood flowing through the air.
They suddenly rembered Barbara's words concerning Mani.
None of them at this point woukd dare approach.
None except of course, her.
Barbara steadily walked forward. She only stopped when she was at his side.
She looked at him, and shook her head.
It was clear, she could see what he was doing.
Mani's hand was on Neely's head and he was trying his best to bring her back to life.
Barbara sighed, "unfortunately, it does not work like that. You cannot give life, your ability is to only heal. If we had gotten to her faster, we could have saved her. I am sorry."
She placed a hand on Mani's shoulder.
However, he shook it off.
Right now, he did not want to see or be with anyone else except her.
The action of Mani shaking her off his shoulder shook Neely's body, and her hand opened up.
In it, was a piece of leaf.
This was sothing that Mani had not taken note of before.
However, he did now.
Mani rembered that on this tree, they would leave notes for one another.
These notes were written in each other's aura energy.
It was their secret thod of passing ssages to each other ever since they were little and innocent.
When their relationship was but of a boy and a girl that enjoyed playing hide and seek with each other.
Slowly and steadily, he removed the leaf from her hand.
He opened it. In truth, he was scared of what she wrote.
He did not want to know, yet curiosity beckoned on him like a dog begging it's owner for a treat, after it did good.
And so he opened the leaf and read:
"I'm sorry Mani! They took it from . And I couldn't stop thinking about it. I couldn't bear to face you after my first was with... And so I am choosing for you, for us. I'll let you go..."
The letter ended there. It was swift and straight to the the point.
However, in them, Mani could see that she was mostly likely in tears as she had written it down.
After all, he knew her hand writing well. This one was shaky, an attribute he knew she had whenever she was scared.
She must have been hurting a lot when she wrote it
Even though he had treated her.
Even though he had healed her wounds, the wound in her heart was the true hurt...
