Hello,

First of, thank you so much for commenting, it means you must've read or at least glanced at the story. Either way, it's cool

Secondly, I never abandon my stories. You should go through my others, just the last page even if you don't read em, just to see that they're all completed. I don't like it when a story is left unfinished and would also not like to do so myself. And also four year? Seriously?

And lastly, I thought people didn't like the story, so you can't blame for not wanting to update to something people aren't responding to. There were comments from few of my sisters and others who may like it, and honestly, it's why I came back to it. Can't leave them hanging.

So, I'm so sorry for the long epistle, but I felt like you needed to know. Don't just judge, be sure first. Once again, thank you so much.

Chapter 8


“Take her, go” Billy yelled, pushing me towards Clarissa, and my back bumped her still looking at the scene before me

“Now!” he screamed, and as if the awakening the creatures from their pause, they charged towards him, but stopped immediately when I pulled away from Clarissa's grip, ran and stood in front of Billy.

“What are you doing?” he questioned,obviously confused by my actions, trying to push me aside. But I didn't budge, surprised by my own strength, my back to him as I faced the creatures

“Its me they want. I can't let them hurt you”

“Kelsey no” he tried but I ignored and started towards them but was taken aback when their faces fell as soon as I neared them, and they bowed to me, before raising up once more but with even more anger visible in their features. But not at all directed towards me, rather behind me.

“No” I screamed but was silenced, when a bright light appeared in the room. Two being within the light, before it faded and revealed their faces. But I wasn't given the opportunity to react as they drew out their swords and soon the heads of the creatures rolled to the ground, before turning to dust alongside their body.

Billy and Clarissa soon joined in on the fight with me now standing in a corner, as they broke off every creature that walked through the door, ripping out their heads  till only the dusty particulars of their remains alone laid on the floor

They all took deep breaths, Billy wiping the sweat from off his face, and Clarissa straightening her blouse suit as they turned to my direction

“What the héll just happened?” I asked no one in particular turning to look at the mess of once a very tidy and neatly arranged office.

“We have to leave now. You've been summoned”. The blue eyed boy who appeared with the light spoke, turning to Billy and Clarissa, and they nodded.

“I'm I dreaming right now?” I turned to the boy. “You're not real. You're from my dream”

“I can assure you that I'm very real” he said with a smirk, before turning to his companion.

“Please wake up Kelsey, this is the part where you wake up”. I murmured “Its been established that the people now talk in your dreams, and now people you know have been involved as well. But it doesn't matter. You're sleeping in Clarissa's office. You'll wake up and everything will go back to normal” I nodded, as if convincing myself

“Not today princess” the boy's companion finally spoke since they arrived. “We can't control it this time. And so we have to go, right now”

“I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay here, and wake up and then go home, welcome my parents properly, and everything will go back to normal”

“Look here princess” the boy's companion barked, but was stopped by Billy as he came to stand before me

“Kelsey, I know this is a lot to take in, but.....”

“No” I shook my head “Its not real. It always isn't, and I'm going to wake up. And Clarissa will be here, smiling to hear me out, and not at all thinking I'm crazy”

“Kelsey” he called out once more, shaking both my shoulders to get me to focus “Not this time. If we don't leave now, there will be more of were those came from, and we wouldn't be able to handle them by ourselves”

“But, I don't understand, what are those? What do they always want from me, and why did they.....” I stopped when it hit me. They were right in front of me, but they didn't do anything to touch me. Instead they bowed? They've never come this close to me before. Either I wake up, or I don't remember the dream

“Why didn't they try to hurt me? And why did they bow to me?” I asked and their heads all turned towards me.

“Now!” a voice yelled, and a string pricked my skin, and suddenly my vision got blurry and the room suddenly seemed hazy. Their faint voices whispering, before I fell into a familiar arm, my lids blinking heavily before it finally closed, and their voices and words died on me

Interesting... I love your voice of words and your clear and vivid description of each scenes...

Chapter 9


White..... its all I could see. The interior of where I was in looked so white, it felt like I could taint it just by staring. White sheets, walls, blinds, although the blinds where barely blocking the ray of light streaming into the room, reflecting the shining as it already is room with all the glittering going on in it. The ceiling looked out of this world like you could actually see the sky. Bright and blue, but a bit dimmed so as not to hurt the eyes when staring. It made me wonder what it'd look like when dark..... but it's all just a dream, I murmured

A slight ache churned in my head, made my hand raise to rub it instinctively when the sleeve of the cloth I was wearing caught my sight as I looked down to what I was wearing or rather what was on me.

I was adorned in a white robe like dress which seemed like a night wear of sort, with its long sleeves and length, I raised both hands and then looked down to my body.

What the hell? I jumped down of the now that I fully notice, a queen sized bed with lots of pillows on it. Did I just wake up from this bed? But why does it still feel like I got hit by a truck and my shoulder blades are beginning to sting. This is bad, the last time I had a dream, I went crazy and missed out on four whole days, and Clarissa...... Clarissa, her name rang in my head. I know I was talking to her, and Billy was there too, and there was a light and creature like things and enchanting blue eyes..... the ache in my head came back sending me to the ground as I squatted, my head in both hands, and there was ringing, and voices in my head....... the door flung open immediately revealing a lady, who seemed to be in her thirties, but seemed younger. Her face thin and petite, with hazel eyes, pointed nose and a honey kissed lips. Long sleek hair pouring over her very white beautiful lace flowing dress, which had a little bit of ornaments adorning it. Overall she looked beautiful, the words were at the tip of my tongue, but then she smiled as soon she saw me, like some kind of relive just washed over her

“You're awake!” she breathed out, coming closer to were I was stood rooted. I opened my mouth to speak but she beat me to it as she flung her hands over my shoulders bringing me into an embrace, inhaling my scent which I'm not so sure about before sniffling and pulled away.

“I'm so sorry” she spoke, but her voice broke a little, before she dabbed the little tear that had formed in the corner of her eyes away.

“It's just you look so much like her”

“Like who?” my bows furrowed as I peered into her eyes. They look a bit like mine, only lighter

“Your mother” she replied with a sad smile

“My mother?” I questioned. I knew I was adopted when I realised I look nothing like the people I call my parents. And so a lot of questioning which queued a lot of tears(from my mom) and hesitations and finally, they broke the news to me when I was eight. I took the news well, and hugged them after they were done, surprising them both as they shared quizzical gazes. I smiled as I pulled away and saw worry in their eyes but smiled still and sounded out a 'thanks'

“Why sweetheart?” my mom had asked.

“For taking me in” I replied with a smile. Tears streamed down her face, but not of sadness, but relive as she pulled me into an embrace, my dad joining in on it too, as we both stayed that way before finally pulling away. I never asked how they got me, or where they got me from because I didn't want them feeling bad, and I also didn't want to find out about the woman that decided not to keep me after bringing me out to the world. But here, this person I didn't know, and in a strange place I still haven't figured out since this dream seemed so real was saying I look like the mother I didn't know and have never met

“Yes” the lady nodded her answer, seeming sober all of a sudden but masked it with a smile as she looked up to my hair, and then all the way down to my feet which was covered by the flowing robe on me that I still have no idea why and how I got into it.

“You need a change of clothes, cause they'll be expecting you” she beamed. She seemed cheerful, I thought. But seconds ago she looked sad when she called talked about my mother, and does she know my mother? And how if she does, does she know her. The questions kept swirling in my head but her going on and on about a dress distracted me as her I barely caught her last few words

“What?”

“Your dress” she smiled. It's in the closet” my eyes darted to the huge walk in closet by the side of the room, which was equally white. This room is just too big for its own good. I shook the thought away and turned back to her but she was already leaving.

“Where are you going?” I called her back, and she swirled on her heels, turning back to look at me.

“You need to freshen up sweetie. They'll be waiting for you”

“Who are they? And I have questions, like who are you, and where the hell am I? How did I get into this?” I shook the robe lightly for emphasis, but her gently smile seem to stop the questions from still pouring out

“I put you into that” she nodded to the robe. “You needed something comfortable I had thought. But all your questions will be answered later on, if only you'd be patient. So just finish up and be right out okay?” her words sounded calm and soothing, it made me want to believe her, but I don't know her

“Well, how i'm I going to find you then?” I asked, when I realised I still don't know where I am

“Just come out, and you'll know” her calm smile still on her face, but it faltered a bit, as a sigh escaped her mouth.

“Ill leave you to it then” she finally spoke after few seconds of just staring. “Its good to have you back Eliza” and with that she turned and was out of the room without giving me a chance to utter another word.

“Well, okay then. Bye” I murmured and turned back to look at the closet, walking towards it when I suddenly halted on my steps, my mind going back to her last word.... 'Eliza'. Why would she call me that?

Okay, it's now allowed. You can all now have my head for I have done wrong.

I am so so sorry. I'll work on it so it won't happen again


And I'm having a problem cuz I can't seem to modify the title so as to change it. Must be unchangeable now

Chapter 10



The sound of voices echoing through the hallway snapped me out of my reverie, jerking me back to reality(somewhat reality), away from the painting I was staring at. It felt like I've heard those words before, have them being said to me. But I can't place where. 

'Your enemies lie within' I read out loud once more of the writing, before averting my gaze away from it and it landed on the straight ahead hallway with no end in sight, made me wonder how I'm hearing the voices then.

With a shrug, a took a step and walked ahead towards what I assumed will be the end of the hallway, my steps echoing to the clanking of my heels, heels I still wondered if where really necessary. I'm not much of a heel person seeing as I love running, but it didn't mean I can't work it every now and then courtesy of my mother.

I reached the end of the hallway thankfully but stopped when I saw two intersections instead. Come out she had said, you'll know where to go. Was she kidding? How am I supposed to know where to go in a place I've never been before. And I thought my last dream was weird. But then again, I get to wear a very beautiful dress, so I guess it should be interesting. 

After what felt like forever, I sighed and just went with the one on my right, walking right in as yet another hallway came in view. This whole place should just be a mansion instead, but looking at it, it does seem like one. A really really big one at that, and really___ my thoughts were cut short when I entered what seemed to be a hall. Really big hall at the end of the hallway.

“I'm in heaven” I muttered, glancing round the various glorious decorations from the crystal chandelier hanging over the roof with candles on top of it, tapestries hanging from the walls, and the silvery throne which looked like it was shipped right out of ice land as it sat at the top of a three step platform, to the walls and floor made of glass, making the place seem heaven like, not that I know what heaven looks like. But with the picture painted in my head of it, this place comes a close second. Really close.

“You're not in heaven I'm afraid” a female familiar voice spoke from behind, making me turn around so fast, I'm surprised I didn't get a whiplash.

I tried to speak but then remembered I didn't catch her name, and as if reading my “Elena” she supplied with a smile. 

“You___” I tried saying, but she cut me off holding me by the wrist as she pulled me into the heart of the throne room. How come I didn't notice the people earlier who were now staring at me as we both walked in, murmurings and confusions visible on their faces as they turned to each other as if not believing their eyes.

I tried to pull away from her grip, but she held even tighter still pulling me with her as she went ahead not entertaining my plea for her to let go. And so I  surrendered and just walked alongside her till the sight in front of me stopped me on my heels, as two faces I didn't think I'd see here came in view. Clarissa and Billy?

Chapter 11


“Eliza” a female voice rang out, and soon I was been enveloped in an embrace
“It's so good to see you again” she spoke from over my shoulders whilst I remained still wondering if hugging is a thing in this place

Finally she pulled away, sniffled before smiling heartily to me. It almost felt like I was a long lost relative with the look in her eyes. It was like the one Elena had given me earlier, but hers was more intense.

Her face looked like Elena's, only a bit older and her sleek jet black hair was adorned with a floral tiara on top of it. And her clothes looked royal. Long, flowing and embedded with beautiful ornaments and designs. Like Elena's, but better.

I wasn't sure what to ask first but decided on the one on my mind since I sighted them when my sight shifted and locked on both of them.

I opened my mouth to ask but was beat to it when a voice from behind me spoke instead.

“My queen you know this could very well be dangerous”

“How so Benjamin?” the one being addressed as queen asked. So she is the queen after all.

“She's been away for a reason and you know that” the speaker agitated, aiming to prove is point. But from the look of it, it didn't seem like the queen would have any of it

“I know nothing Benjamin” her calm demeanour cracked a bit and she snapped. 

“She can doom us all. And you know that” he added and there were nods and murmurs of agreements within crowd by his side. “He's going to know she's here, and he'll come for her, and you know the repercussions that would follow if that is to happen. She doesn't belong here Edna”.

“She's family and ought be treated as such. You shall not hold what happened against her, for she was all but a child after all and knew not of it. All of you”. Her gaze left him and rested on the others that stood aside as well. And they all shifted uncomfortably, probably not agreeing with her but nodding anyway.

“Now leave us be. I'd like to speak with my family”. She said, and they all bowed and exited the throne room.

“What was that about? And what were they talking about?” I questioned getting more and more confused by the second

“Where am I? And why can I see you guys in my dream? I pointed to Clarissa and Billy  who remained awfully still and calm in their spots. “And what did they mean by that dooming you all” 

“It's all right Eliza, all well be revealed in due time”

“No” I snapped, her hand placed on my shoulder dropping in shock as they all were taking aback by my sudden outburst but I didn't care. “I want answers now! And why are you calling Eliza” I fumed, seething with anger all of a sudden that I really couldn't comprehend. It was almost like I couldn't control it, but at the same time I felt power and control, and it felt exhilarating and my insides churned with excitement. And soon the voices began, but this time, I could feel them, for they were in my head

“What's happening to me" I muttered holding my head in both hands as I shifted back with unease. Releasing deep pants as I shook my head trying to reed myself of it, but it didn't seem to be working as the voices became louder and angrier. I chanced looking up from all the voices and ringing that I can barely make out, to the faces of the people in front of me. But with their faces right now, I could tell this was more than just a dream.

Please o, don't be too quiet. Say something

Chapter 12


They were merely murmurs, but then it got louder. It became cries and screams, and was almost like I could feel what they're feeling. The feeling of been locked up for too long, a feeling of craving it was driving me crazy. I wanted them out, wanted them to stop. I was going crazy as their cries filled my head. I fell to the ground on my knees screaming, trying to block out their sounds. But it wasn't making it any better.

They're in my head and I don't know what they are “Pleaaassee__ make them stop” I cried to no one in particular as I was seeing red at the moment, my sight blinded by the pain and their rage.

There were murmurs that I couldn't make out around me, but then again, they could be having a normal conversations and I wouldn't be able to hear them through the voices in my head.

I felt someone rush in, and a pair of hands were suddenly placed hard on my temples, and the person started speaking in gibberish. Not sure what was happening, but not being able to control it, my hangs flung up and pressed on the person's, drawing out a scream from her, but that didn't stop her from doing what he was doing as she continued talking in a foreign language I couldn't understand.

I felt power surge from her touch and the voices recoiling with the pressure of her hold. I wasn't sure if it was the touch or the gibberish she was saying, but it seemed to be helping, so I let go of my hold to her hands, and soon the voices were barely whispers, my head spinning as my visions suddenly got hazy. She let go and I fell to the ground with a thud, hearing the faint pitter patter of feet running towards me, faint sounds of their voices, before my eyes closed and so did the voices.


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


My eyes were closed but I could feel I was no longer on the hard floor, but rather on a very soft surface. A bed presumably, and I wasn't alone cause there was a hold to my hand and a body sat close to me.

I tried opening my lids, but it was like they have a power of their own as they remained shut, and felt heavy.

A sudden creak sounded out which I assumed was a door opening, a stiletto of heels walked in, then I heard the faint sound of the door closing, and the person's heels sounding faint but with each step coming on louder till it came to a stop.

“How is she?” a voice I didn't recognise asked

“She's still asleep” another voice which I recognised earlier as the queen's replied with a sigh

“Edna.....” the unrecognised voice drawled but was cut off by the queen

“I know what you're going to say, but I don't want to hear it”

“Well, you're going to have to Edna. I know you think you're doing the right thing, but you're not. Benjamin is right, and the councils are thrown in disarray”.

“She's family Dahlia. I can't bare to loses any more family member” I felt the release of her hold on me as well as pressure on the part of the bed in which she sat

“But you are going to loose a lot of people if you do this”. the other voice said with a sigh. “Edna you're queen know, and you are responsible for everyone and not only you're family. They all look up to you and expect you to lead them just like your father did. So you have to look past it and do what's right for everyone”.

“And what do you suppose is the right thing to do?” the queen finally asked after a brief pause.

“You have to tell her”

“I can't” was the queen's abrupt answer “She mustn't know, for we will handle it”

“Edna listen to me” the stranger's voice snapped cutting off the queen's. “I can not always be able to hold them off for any longer. It took a great deal out of me, and the next time it happens, I very well might fail”. She paused before going on “The young witch wasn't able to awaken her, but she did succeed in summoning them which you saw first hand. She succeeded in breaking the seal burying them within

Now you know the consequences of them having control over her, and this time they're coming back strong having being locked away for so long”.

“I don't know what to do Dahlia, I feel we're going to lose her him again”. The queen's voice became sombre, with somewhat pain within it

“I think you know what to do”

“But I'm scared” the queen's voice broke. “We already lost Evelyn because of father's mistake. And we already lost her before. I feel we are going to lose her again”.

There was a deafening silence in which I thought they had left, but then her voice came back up

“You know, she's not a little girl anymore. She has power, so strong I felt it when she touched me. She is her father's daughter after all”. I detected something in her voice when she said the last part, almost like anger. But it was gone when the next words followed

“It's better she at least learns to control them than for them to control her, for it will be catastrophic if the latter happens” she finished and once again there was the silence

“I have to tell her, don't I?”

“You know what you have to do” the strangers voice spoke, and suddenly a hand I felt had touched me before, one with power held my wrist. And suddenly I felt unease inside of me, like a threat of sort before it finally let go. And soon the door opened and shut back. Someone had left.

“I really wish it were easier Eliza” the queen's now calm and gentle voice spoke after a long while, and a gentle kiss placed on my forehead before I felt withdrawal.

The door opened and shut, and my eyes opened instantly like it was awaiting them to leave. It wouldn't take a genius to figure out they were talking about me, but it all felt strange. Tell me? I wondered. Something very strange is going on, and I have I feeling this is no longer a dream I would wake up from. It could be way worse. This could be reality.

Strange things indeed..........still don't understand what's going

Strange things indeed..........still don't understand what's going on. waiting patiently for the next episode ma

I'm sorry there wasn't an earlier update for all you readers. Was stressed my name wasn't in nysc senate list yet.

But yay! Saw it this evening. Turns out my sch's weird and wrote my matric num funny. But I've seen my name, so I'm glad.

So, enjoy the mystery.......



Chapter 13

Kelsey please wake up, you've had enough, I slapped my palm lightly across my face repeatedly as I paced the room, my thoughts all over the place, like what the héll was going on in this place. But I wasn't keen on waiting too long to find out

The queen had left earlier not knowing I had heard all they had said. I had jumped off the bed, my head spinning as this place keeps repeating itself. I'm supposed to be awake by now, talking to my Clarissa about my weird dream. Telling Billy I saw him in my dream, which would draw a frown from him, and a brow wiggle from Nelly. She's always had these theories that Billy and I should be together cause we are perfect together. Her theory we're both weird and he always seem to understand me better. Maybe she is right, there's always been something off about him and I'm seeing him in my dream now. Maybe we are connected or sort_____ Oh my God! Now I'm going crazy even in my dreams. “Please wake up Kelsey” I shook my head vigorously, getting dizzy as I fell to the ground on my knees, a stinging pain from my kneecap on the impact, but I didn't mind. This can't be real, it should be one of my dreams, I rubbed both hands together pleadingly as my head shot up the sky and my eyes closed instinctly, muttering incoherent words.

After what felt like forever, I peeked one eye open, glancing around, but there were no changes for I was still in dream state.

Getting up abruptly, I grunted frustratedly, and with rage carried and threw to the side with force the first thing I laid my hands on, not minding to check what but didn't miss it's shattering and my pants sounded out in the room.

Deep breaths, I chanted in my head as I made to keep my beating heart at ease. There should be an obvious explanation to what's happening, I nodded and finally turned to check what I threw, my heart plummeting to my stomach as I saw the damage. I had broken a crystal vase which looked to be very precious. 

“This day just keeps getting shitty, I cussed under my breath with a sigh and made to gather the broken pieces, but stopped when a piece pricked my skin, drawing out blood in the process. 

And it keeps getting better, I muttered abandoning the mess as I carried instead the bigger piece and walked out the room. Better go report my self. 

Following the same route as before, I arrived at the entrance of the beautiful throne room, not that everything else in this place wasn't beautiful. 

I sighted people within, arguing over something I presumed from the tone of the voices.

I released a breath and walked right in, piece in hand as I moved closer to them. But then someone turned around and saw me coming, alerting the others and they all turned towards me, but their gazes falling to the broken piece in my hand.

“I'm so sorry” I stopped when the queen walked closer away from them towards me “I had a bit of an accident. I know it's expensive and I promise to replace it”

“Nonsense” she waved her hand and soon, the piece was being taken from my hand, and the person walking away without a word. “I'll have someone clean it up. Are you hurt?” she took my hand in hers as she scanned for injuries, but I withdrew my hand quickly before she could see the cut, her eyes falling to mine with a slight frown.
“Did you have a good sleep?” she questioned so innocently I almost believed she's one. Something is happening to me that they might know about, and I need answers

“What is wrong with me?” I asked peering into her eyes, but she wasn't giving anything away as the remained passive

“I don't seem to understand what you mean” she replied calmly

“I know you do!” my words coming out rather louder than I intended. “I overheard you earlier. You were talking to some one in the room. So tell me what's going on!”

Her eyes widened a bit, before it went back to its calm state. She turned to the people who were stood aside watching us both, nodded, and they all bowed and left us alone

“Eliza, I'd love it if you would just calm down please”

“You don't get to tell me to calm down” I barked, trying and failing to be calm and rational. But who was I kidding, I might very well be losing my mind right now, and my insides seem to be churning with excitement from my outburst that I don't why.
“And stop calling me Eliza!, my name is Kelsey for Gód sake. I've been having this weird dream that I can't seem to wake up from, and seeing things which in my normal dreams shouldn't be a problem, but is very much a problem in this. I'm sick and tired of not understanding what's going on, so would you please explain to me what the héll is happening to me” I finished, my breaths coming out in pants, but she had moved back instinctly, obviously from my crazed outburst, eyes almost to the point of falling off its socket as she stood rooted to her spot. Was my outburst really that terrifying that I rendered her speechless? I wondered turning around to see that we were in fact no longer alone. Clarissa, Billy, Elena, and a fourth person I had never seen before stood not too far behind from where I stood. Their faces cloning the queen's except the fourth lady who seem some what less affected, but still 

“You can fight it Eliza, fight it!” the fourth lady yelled, and suddenly a scream rang out from me, as it bellowed causing glasses to shatter from inside the throne room and they all bent to the ground hands over their heads to avoid the falling shatter. But my scream continued, and worse, I wasn't in control of it

Chapter 14


“Eliza please fight it” I could hear the words even through the excruciating scream and shatters. The words were echoing faintly, but still, it was getting through to me some how. I wanted to stop, wanted so bad to listen to the voice coming through to me, was crying to make it stop,but I couldn't stop it. It was as if my mouth was working on its own or controlled of sort, cause it can't seem to follow the command I was given.

The screaming was ear_splitting as it seems to pierce right through. I could almost feel my ears bleed, my voice stretching beyond humanly possible as the shriek rang out continuously till I could take it no more.

My throat felt sore and my visions hazy from the pungent shrill that my voice was producing. I felt myself weakened as I fell to the side, the scream dying with me. I could see only black dots through my semi_closed lids, getting bigger, forming some sort of an apparition through my hazy vision. I couldn't tell if it was real or not as the face of the creature was faintly clear, but I didn't miss the giggling sound it produced before my lids gave up.

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


I arose, with a force like I was in some sort of coma before. My eyes blinking to the walls within before turning to see all five people from earlier, plus a few more now, all standing afar of me, staring. From the looks of it, I haven't been out for long as the ruins caused by my screams still looked the same as before my eyes closed.

“Something is coming” I blurted the words out, my insides churning with excitement. I didn't know what, but I saw it/them. I'm not sure how, but they seem like trouble and their aura not at all human. I didn't know how to feel as it had always been with me, but why do I feel excited even when I couldn't control it. There seem to be an impending danger, and I'm feeling excited on the inside

“Something is coming” I repeated, this time looking to the small crowd,ignoring the excitement. But from the look on their faces, I had a feeling they know already.

“They are close” a male ran in panting as he delivered his message with a look that can best be described as terror.“We just got a message. They know and they're headed here as we speak”.

“Can you do something Dahlia?” an equally terrified but trying so hard to keep calm queen turned to the fourth person from earlier. Dahlia? Where have I heard that name?..... My thoughts were caught off when the woman spoke instead.

“It's too late. It broke the barrier”. She looked to me as she spoke, anger burning in her gaze, but not at all directed to me, but through to me.
“They're coming, I can feel them. But they are not the only ones I'm feeling” her gaze turned away from mine to the queen's and they both turned to look at me.

“They're furious, and they seem stronger now”.

Okay people. If you're following this story and getting frustrated not knowing what's happening, I think you're allowed to rant, and/or ask questions.
