your pale skin is a razor sharp wire;
so i place these scales over my eyes;
Epos had been fortunate, she didn’t know of the curses that had seemed to possess Shaman when Mallos locked away in some secret place. She didn’t know of the deaths they had suffered, the famine, the floods, the volcanoes, the disease. She knew none of that, and perhaps it was best. Epos would of thought about the world of Shaman slightly differently. She knew people in general created a world of destruction around them but to be personally involved was a whole different ball game to her. She didn’t like the war that was currently going on any better than the next same person. But she did her part, played her role, and hoped to whatever god that she survived.
Epos had somehow landed herself in the Core and was now moving about the castle walls. So much was happening to her. She somehow got elected for parliament she was a minister for the diplomats in Set-Merut but she felt as though she didn’t deserve any of it. What had she done besides fall into a pit of her own self-pity? She had done nothing, she hadn’t brought in a single recruit, she hadn’t fashioned some tremendously genius way to end the war. She did nothing. Except for the fact she was about to embark to earth.
She had recently regained her memories and found out she had been a successful child on earth. She had studied many ancient cultures and had traveled the world with her parents. They were not rich, if anything they were wealthy enough to get by. They had went to help many third world countries and their children. Her family was quite charitable. How she landed in Shaman after twenty years of life on earth without a single memory of the time before her she couldn’t understand. Eventually she would search for Adia. Braebuck and her had come to the conclusion that she could go to earth and find her parents and find out what had happened to her only if she brought someone along with her. After all it would have been odd for a girl to wander around with a horse thus, he couldn’t go. And the only person she trusted enough was Adia.
But somewhere in all this the information she knew about earth was quite useful to Aura in this modern time, it was their job to go talk to the council. She was scared; she had many feelings running through her mind but knew that once it started she couldn’t go back. She had to do this to prove to herself that she could.
Eventually she became quite lost while she was so deep in thought and almost ran into a man that was cleaning the grounds. A shocked expression surrounded her face only but she hadn’t seen him. She hadn’t had time to notice his physical defects as she stumbled back. A small giggle escaped from her lips as she placed her hand over her mouth. “Excuse me sir.” She said as her eyes wandered from him to around the courtyard. She knew where she was but not really where it was. “Can you tell me where I am, I seem to have gotten myself lost. I’m rather new to the castle and I’m trying to figure my way around it.” She sighed as her eyes fell back on him. “it’s more difficult than I had anticipated.” A smile formed on her lips as she gazed at him. Hoping that he would be kind enough to at least tell her where she was and how to get out.
