''Mother Oyster?'' Lord Cassian could see her having a painful expression.
''Child, I saw many of your family members being born, live good and die. All of them were honourable people. You were actually the best parent for her. She learned to trust and love from you. Xara, child come here...'' She waved at the redheaded woman that looked ta her in wonder.
''Mother Oyster, why do you sound like you will say goodbye to us now?'' Mela had kind of feeling vague premonition.
''Let me finish talking to Xara, you are next. Xara, child come near.'' Xara came near her and Mother Oyster took her by hand and sighed. ''Your powers rose slightly but you are been lazy lately. This world she produced is a world of no boundaries for power users. Are you really satisfied with your power as it is now?''
Xara nodded. ''I never planned to become God and live infinitely. To me is enough to live some time with my family and then calmly die. The world she produced is quiet and I will leave it for other generations. Cassian had same thoughts.''
Lord Cassian went close to Xara and hugged her. ''We lived trough war and death. Now seeing new generations being calm and having other spirations we are not greedy. This is good enough. As we are a bit stronger than other people we will live a couple of centuries and die calmly.''
Mother Oyster sighed. ''Too bad. People like two of you could become really powerful. But having no greed is fine as well. Kendra likes spending time with you two. Try to be around her whenever she comes.''
They smiled at each other. ''We would do that anyway.''
Mother Oyster turned her head towards Mela and Fan and motion that they come closer. ''Two of you curious beings... Learn many things form these two people. If they live just a couple centuries, that means after they are gone no one else will be here to cover her with paternal love. then she will have only two of you. Mela, to answer your question. Yes, I can feel my reincarnation is near. In every world, I stay in a different form. I hope one time in future I will meet her again. That child...''
Fan suddenly stepped forward and held her hand. ''I promise.'' Those simple words made her have eyes filled with tears.
''Good, then I am then calm. She needs all of you in future.'' She took of his hand and put together with Mela's. ''Two of you must learn to become real parents. Then she will reserve piece of her heart for you two as well.'' She turned her head and motioned for Isaa and Marcus to come closer.
Marcus slowly approached her and hugged her rightly while tears suddenly started streaming down his cheeks. ''I finally found two of you and now again I am going to say goodbye? How mean...''
''She will be back. Kaia, what a beautiful name she chose for herself. There is eternity my child, e shall meet again. Don't let her be alone. Isaa, come here.'' She looked at her body and then her eyes. ''You still can't control your true form. I think this travelling through worlds will stabilise you. No matter what anyone says do never forget one thing, in her heart, you will always be there. Forever...'' She hugged the crying woman in her hug and slowly started turning into specs of light.
''Kendra, let's meet again...'' were her last words that came out.
The world suddenly was enveloped by a strange play of colours. The whole world became rainbow making everyone somehow have a feeling of sadness instead of happiness.
When the sky cleared the people that stood in mid of the garden were silent for a while. The first person to speak was Isaa.
''Mother Oyster helped us from the first day. I hope she will meet Kendra again. For Kendra, it will be hard to handle the world without her. Let's hope she reincarnates and they meet while we look for the dark ones.'' She turned her head and smiled at Marcus. ''Now I understand many things. Her love for you. The pain you caused her was deep and now I understood why.''
Marcus nodded as he looked at the last disappearances of the colorful sky.
''She never loved me the way woman love s man. She loved me like a sister loved brother. t was painful for her to watch me treat the other person like a sister but show her that ugly side of mine. But at the same time, she forgave me for doing so. Because when I love, I do not abandon. My little sister...'' He again started crying, she has been through so much pain. ''No wonder she is so sensitive.''
He turned his eyes towards the sky and sighed. ''Here I know at least she will be back from time to time. We won't miss our paths again. It's just two of the left from our kind..'' They are all gone, disappeared with time. Trying to find them I almost missed her. Now he knew that she wanted this world to be protected. So all he could do is for her to grow strong. Much stronger. If she really wants to go to that world then she needs to grow much, much stronger. Not even dark ones dared to enter that world. Not even he dares, but maybe, just maybe they will let her in as her being is different. Same but different...
Mela and Fan looked at him with big eyes and realized something. ''The Elder?'' The shock became even more evident as Marcus chose to turn into his original form. Looking at his being they couldn't believe. They all thought Elders died or disappeared in the nothingness of time, who would have thought?
Isaa gaped with an open mouth as she stared ta him. ''Is this the Elders true form?''
He turned his head and he whispered. ''Yes. Kendra still does not know about her true form. Mother Oyster sent her to the lower worlds as the time there seem as it passed a long time, but their hundred years there is like a hundred minutes here in the mid realm. So She living thousands of worlds is like she was away just a few years. May I ask you all for a favour, do not tell her anything when she comes back. She is still growing baby, in my eyes at least.''
they all could see and feel his love towards Kendra as he closed hsi eyes and smiled. ''She is in that world and already has full hands with stuff. I can feel that she is annoyed but at the same time has much fun. Isaa, you must do the same. Do not take this searching only as a task. Remember days how you grew up with Kendra, then you two can have ta least fun while searching. Ok?'' He smiled once more at her making her dizzy again.
''Don't you worry. I think I know now why she is always giving those smiles. No wonder. If I didn't love Palcca I think I would try to snatch you.'' Isaa was honest. This man was literally enveloping her with the energy she felt comfortable with. Same like Kendra. This is one of the reasons he will never be able to get away from her. And she was not willing. Kendra is her sister, her brother, everything...
''Thank you for the compliment. But, I could never be with you.'' Marcus words made her come out daze and chuckle while looking at him with strange thoughts.
''Is it because...'' Isaa wanted to say more but he softly stroked her head and then pinched her cheeks.
''Child, do you think our kind cares to abut such small things. It's not because we are different species...'' He sighed and turned around towards a certain point. On the sky, a small house appeared with another person standing there and looking at them. Strangely she couldn't see if its man or woman as he blurred vision towards that person. As long he is happy...''I found my soulmate. Like I said before, to us things do not matter. Neither species, realms, cultivation, nothing... Everything makes no sense if you don't feel truly soul connected to someone. That someone is that person there. I finally found someone who liked me for myself. It's time for you to start to travel. Kendra can't do it all alone. Go, child.''
Isaa saw him in daze float up and hold hands with that person and disappear as well like neither the person, himself or the house ever existed ever there.
Xara and Cassian hugged her tightly as they knew it was time to say goodbye. At least they could hug her, while Mela and Fan patted her head and saw how she slowly disappeared again.
''We will wait for you, our children.'' The fore people closed their eyes sending hope in calm and happy future for all of them...
