Chapter 66 - 66. The story starts to entwine

Everyone turned around and saw Isaa staring at Kendra's aggrieved expression. She felt suddenly angry."Who made my brother angry. Let me fight you all."She stood there all angry but everyone found her amazingly cute. She stood there with puffed cheeks and anger flashing in her eyes.

Lais stood and walked slowly towards the child but Isaa just pushed her without trouble aside and went to Kendra. She looked at the tears on Kendra's face and got even angrier. '' This...Who made my beautiful brother cry. Kendra always laughs and she should be always happy. Why do people always make her angry? She was perfectly fine last weeks. She even forgot how to get angry. That dude on the gate made her hair go red from anger. We just got back...Kendra stop crying or I will start crying as well!'' She already had tears streaming down her face but she didn't even realize.

Kendra looked at aggrieved Isaa and stopped crying. She looked around and saw smiling faces. She had such great friends. They accepted her even with her crazy behavior. ''I am sorry I lost my manners and let my emotions go. I will try to become a stronger person in the future. Fintan I want to thank your family for holding my back this whole time. Not only mine, Lord's as well. If you didn't open the storage and fed the people...''

''Don't be foolish. I was lucky that you already prearranged the grains. Luckily the village sent me enough food. To tell you the truth I could have fed the city for months but I was worried about the inside fights. People are sometimes quite strange, aren't they?'' he said while taking a handkerchief and tapping her tears away.

Isaa saw the movement and brushed his hand away. ''I will do that for my brother. I am after all his sister, right Kendra?'' she said while tears again welled in her eyes and streamed silently down her cheeks.

Kendra was touched. She took the handkerchief from Isaa's hand and patted the tears away and then remembered that she had powers. So she just tried both of their faces with a wave of the hand and hugged Isaa tightly. ''I will definitely become stronger so I can protect all the people I care about. And you need to become stronger as Xara, Fluffy and even Lais entered the space. It seems your strength is still weak, but I can see that your energy is almost filled. Your second level will break soon and then you probably will be able to enter the space.

The Lord was stunned.''Wait didn't you say that other water users need stronger energy to produce the abilities...'' he started talking but Kendra stopped him.

''I said the second level is needed to even read teh books. Isaa could do cloud flying at the begin of the first stage. On the fifth level of the first stage, she could float and only at the ninth level of the first stage she could fly higher than trees. We realized many things while we cultivated.'' she looked around and saw the interested faces. She sighed and looked at sleeping Xara. She slowly tried to wake her up, but it seems she was just too tired.

''I actually wanted to explain everything when Xara is around, but she will get everything explained later when she was up.''She sighed and started to explain.

There are eleven stages of every element of power. Each stage has 10 borders. Every border has ten hights. Every hight has different strength. Elementalists start at the basic stage and need ten hights to first stage and so on. Usually, the elementalist can extend their life after the fifth stage and after the eleventh stage, they can enter the state of exodus and choose to go to another place or level up other elements...

Some elemetalists are born with multiple elements so they can choose to cultivate them at the same time or one after another. But their powers could be stronger as dual powers usually compliment themselves. The ''history'' books were actually explanations about powers from the plain view of an old elementalist. It seems he left the books for his family to use in the hope there will be more people in his family that could use the explanation. But he put a boundary on the books for the reason that if they can't even pass the second stage what is the point for them to learn more.

It seems that he traveled around the countries and gathered information about powers, abilities, and uses of abilities. He wrote as simple as he could, adding pictures because he was not able to explain better. On end, he ended up gathering enough books and choose to break through exodus and fight to go to the next plain. Later there was add with different handwriting on one of the books that he succeeded.

It seems no one ever came back when they chose to leave this place.

Kendra explained that there is a way to find out what stage the elemetalists are but they need the heart of the earth, the eye of the sun, the whisper of the wind and the blood of the dragon well. She looked at them in silence and waited for questions. But no one asked anything. They understood the simple logic. What all with powers realized is that they might become someone stronger if they learn more.

Not only that after the fifth stage of elements they can extend their lives. She looked at Fintan with a smile as she added.''If someone hurt the base of his sea of power but didn't lose completely their powers they could be healed. So, Uncle Fintan, I think you need to start reading and we will find a way to heal you. You can become stronger if you want.''

She suddenly got attacked by the old lady. She squeezed her cheeks and scolded her.''You dare to call him uncle but what about me. When do you plan to call me grandma? I am waiting for that for so long.''

The cheeks on Kendra's face started heating up but not from her pinching than from shame. ''Since we met I had so many things to do and when I planned to ask you, some things always pop up.''

The old lady looked at her questioningly.''You didn't have to ask me to be able to call me grandma. I would have accepted it a long time ago. I like both of you and Fluffy as well.''

Kendra's face now got the even redder hue and they started chuckling. She shook her head and wanted to say something but felt ashamed so Isaa came in for help. She came closer and held the lady's hand.''She is ashamed. Don't push her too much. I will tell you why she never called you grandma. The simple reason is the same I have as well.'' She looked at her with a cute face and stunned everyone with rest of sentence.''We never got to hear your name and after a while, we felt ashamed to ask.''

The old lady turned and looked incredulously at the two children. ''Oh my, how did that happen? I usually say my name how comes...Sigh. I am Aine Fire.'' She winked at them and laughed.

Kendra turned to the Lord that understood the way she looked at him.

He sighed. ''Seriously? Never asked anyone?''

Kendra shook her head and pressed her mouth. Isaa jumped in and bowed in front of him. ''We have a bigger problem with your side. ''

He looked at her in disbelief. Why always problems?''What kind of problem?''

Kendra slowly approached him, took his hand in hers and looked at him with big eyes. ''We have a huge problem here. And I think all of you will understand why I have that problem.''

(Authors ramblings: If you find out real power behind Isaa I will give you today three more chapters if you find out what is a real problem she had here I will give you one more chapter. Bdw The problem she had is multiple answers. Even if you answer one of the causes I will give you one more chapter. :) Happy Easter Monday.)
