Prologue:
He sat there, on that tremendous throne of his. The one where it is only raised enough so that he can look you in the eye while he sits and you stand before him.
And I do stand before him, but in a second, if by his will, I will be kneeling, as I owe him my life and my loyalty in gratitude for his merciful kindness and compassion especially for one so different from him and those that surround him.
He looks so serious and rather imposing, watching me, eyeing my reactions to what he is about to say.
"You have been named and commended to do a duty for me, one that I bid you do for me with the utmost importance and speed."
"Of course my lord, whatever it is you bid me do, I will complete it with reverence and haste." I say seriously and while looking him in the eye.
We last a couple of minutes before laughing and smiling. After we calm down I ask "seriously Mandos? I have been allowed to go and have a second chance in this world? A chance to be accepted and do good?" He smiles at me kindly "yes. And I have found the reason that you didn't bond with anyone in your old world, it turns out that he wasn't on that realm but actually on this one, he is all the way over there, waiting for you to find him." His smile starts to turn sad and maybe a little remorseful "I know that this is a lot to ask of you, even though I know you have dreamt about it but please if you do find him before your duty is finished, you must wait to bond with him.." he holds his hand up for silence when I go to protest "I know, I know but this was the only stipulation for you being allowed to have a second chance. You must do your duty before bonding with him, I tried to fight this but I was over-ruled. Now, go my dear. You have a whole new world waiting to be explored and protected" he stands off his throne and walks her to the shores not long from his halls. "I will see you once again when you come back to these lands and should you hopefully have found your bond mate, and then I want to meet him too."
