~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Desert, The Continent Of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 8:48 PM)~~~
Night has fallen on the desert, and we\'re continuing as we did before. It\'s 4 straight days of travel. Xilo has put her clothes back on since the sun has set and the temperature has lowered significantly. The extremes of the desert aren\'t fun.
Sally and I spent a long time talking with Xilo about the history of The Regeliance Kingdom and the Des\'merta. We learned just how much more advanced they are compared to everyone else.
While the technology isn\'t at the level of Earth during my lifetime. It\'s impressive, nonetheless. I guess that doesn\'t really say much since we destroyed our world\'s environment. That\'s neither here nor there at the moment.
Right now, I\'m looking up at the stars. I\'ve seen beautiful views of the skies above in The Ancients World. Some nights, the light from the sky would overcome the surroundings. Bathing it in starlight. Seeing the world from the starlight is different than anything you\'d ever think.
It\'s sad to think that Earth was like that at one point. But again, I\'m getting off track. What\'s surprising is Sally and Xilo have been talking.
The elf that I spend all my time with has started to get along better with Xilo. It might have something to do with the fact that Sally and her share a very similar past. I couldn\'t be certain, but that\'s the best guess.
"What made you stay with the Des\'merta when you first were freed? Did they give you a choice to stay or go?"
I\'m still looking at the stars as this conversation is happening. It\'s something that many would consider a dramatic shift in such a short amount of time. But Sally is trying to change that part of herself, and I really admire that.
She\'s not holding a grudge. At least she\'s doing a good job of hiding it. I doubt they\'ll be friends at any point, but Sally might consider Xilo an acquaintance at some point.
"They did give me a choice. After reaching where we\'re heading now, they said that I could stay with them. Or they could take me to a neighboring Kingdom on one of the caravans. I chose to stay. I knew it was the place I belonged."
The Continent of Alforza has a lot of history. The Des\'merta and The Regeliance Kingdom is just a small part of that history. There are still a lot of places that we haven\'t been to, and I want to visit everywhere that exists.
"Hey, I\'m heading out for a second."
Before Sally can say anything to me. I stand up in the carriage and spread my wings out. I burst into the sky and rush for the stars. Reaching out my hand. I continue to soar higher and higher.
I eventually reach the vacuum of space and start taking massive passive damage. In the millions. But I have enough health to enjoy this for a minute or so.
The silence up here is amazing, and the moons of Gaia are bigger from here. I look below me, and everything seems so small from up here. A massive desert is below me, and I look a the spherical shape of Gaia, and it seems endless.
It\'s a magical world. One that expands indefinitely. There are civilizations out there that don\'t know we exist. Places on Gaia that have never been explored by Players. It makes me wonder if there are parts of Gaia that have NPCs that don\'t have access to the system.
It makes sense.
The damage I\'ve been taking has added up, and instead of diving down. I fall, with my back to Gaia. I watch the moons and stars pull away. I spin around and spread my wings out.
"I should take a couple of minutes to myself. Get away from all the noise and company of others. Everyone needs that break."
Instead of heading back down to the caravan, I fly high above it. Keeping with its slow speed. It doesn\'t move fast, and that\'s to be expected. It\'s a caravan, after all.
"What does it all mean..."
My mind and question are on this Raduerial situation. There are so many things I want to know, but I have nothing to give me the answers. Amelia might know the answers. She could give me some. I have no way of getting ahold of Arch-Angel Michael.
If I\'m really an entity that\'s come from Gaia, then I don\'t know why all of this has happened in the first place. Was the plan of The Almighty Father to join Earth and Gaia together from the very start? Why was I sent away from my home and placed on Earth?
But that\'s nearly impossible, too. There were literally baby pictures of me. Pictures of me in the hospital when my mom gave birth to me.
"I don\'t know how I\'m going to find any of the answers..."
I spend about an hour up here, and I eventually get a message from Sally.
[Hey, you doing okay? You left too fast for me to ask what\'s wrong.]
I don\'t answer her immediately. I leave her on read and I know that she won\'t take kindly to that. I close the Player Interface and turn off notifications for the time being. This is a moment that I rarely get to myself, and I think I need it.
~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~
~~~(Location: Desert, The Continent Of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 10:13 PM)~~~
Cera has been gone for a long time. I\'ve lost him in the sky. There are too many stars, and he\'s flying too high for me to make out his golden wings glowing in the sky.
He hasn\'t responded to any of my messages either, and I\'m starting to get worried that he\'s in trouble. But that\'s pointless since I doubt anything in the desert can hurt him or reach him up there. Xilo and I have been talking since he left, but it\'s gone quiet.
She\'s just watching me as I look at my Player Messages every few minutes and look toward the sky for a sign of Cera.
"There are times when a man needs space and time to think. No one else has to be around for those moments. I have no doubts he\'s in that mindset at the moment."
Xilo and I are doing a little better, and while I\'ll talk to her. I won\'t take any advice from her. But it makes sense. Cera is a guy, and I know that he does a lot out of his own character for me. He\'s not a social guy, but he tries for me. He\'s done that for me.
"He hasn\'t sent me any messages back. This is the first time he\'s done this before. I can\'t help worrying about him. Is there anyone special in your life, Xilo?"
I change the subject to something that\'s been on my mind for a long time. Xilo hasn\'t spoken about a man in her life, and I don\'t know if her culture allows for her to be with a man. In the sense of a relationship or marriage. She\'s able to have sex to make people Des\'merta.
But that\'s all I know about her. There is a solemn look on her face and one that shows she was once in love. But since she\'s immortal, I think that person she cared for passed long ago. In retrospect, it was a stupid question.
"There was a man a long time ago. He made me feel something I had never felt before. And I haven\'t felt it since. He made me feel special and loved."
I want to ask more, but I\'ve been such a bitch to her that I feel kind of bad. On the other hand, she did drug Cera and me and had a three-way with us.
"Are you allowed to have someone special?"
The question hits her deeply.
