Prologue

Slowly rising inside me; anger. Am I just here because of who I am or because of what I am? The room slowly became my hide-out, or has it become my own jail?

Nahira, a medium class oppressed girl, who inhabits in the all psyche perplex city of Dhu'l Amentra. Cold nights and warm days are characteristics of Dhu'l Amentra, as well as its bizarre yet perfect environment; rivers, forests, deserts, and mountains, all together in one city where magic and ancestral wisdom by the beliefs of the elders still survives in the present days. Every house and every family has a legend, true or not, dignified and sought by new generations as a seeking guidance throughout life as well as the gratitude for their ancestors. Every grain of sand, each root, every droop, and even every individual has a past, a present, a future and... a story.

Is this power given to me by Lantasha the one who drove me into this misfortune? Why did grandmother think of this unexpected change in my life? Didn't she know how my progenitors were going to react?

Dhu'l Amentra's streets, busting with life, by day and night filled with people who knew nothing and indivertibly slept in coffins, vain lives wasted, time and life just vanishing into air becoming nothing.

If I could get away, if only I could run and be away from my guardian at night...if, if, if...

Legends tell that ages ago that Dhu'l Amentra and even the whole world was not as what it is now. Forces ruled and destroyed, spirits charged and mortals just simply died in that brief moment, in that time when age and thought was a privilege as if the energy that existed at the time blindly absorbed life from every living and undead creature.

Five natural spirits united and created a new era, a new world, a new village. Four families, one war, two goals with an only purpose... an inevitable fate?



Chapter one

The four founding families, Feur, Idre, Aer and Aurium were once ago a covenant, one essence but as centuries went by, ambitions changed as well as the pure soul the families once had. Darkness and light now tried to survive in this new vain world, in this mesmerizing and sub real city...In this new Dhu'l Amentra.

Nahira's grandmother, Latasha, was time ago, before she died, the possessor of the element that ruled the Feur family: fire. Each founding family was ruled by an element, Idre water, Aer was air, and Aurium earth. The fifth spirit united the four of them when peace ruled, now war does and it has vanished.

Fire, fire is what grows inside my chest, this power I didn't reclaim, this power that's leaving a stain...in my soul.

The golden rays of sun trespassing my old fashioned curtains, slowly illuminating my somber chamber in which was contained all my life, all my essence and all of my secrets.

The sun has risen and a new day has come, am I forced to open my eyes and see the real world in which I live? Or should I still stay in my dreams? I have a better life when in my dreams than the one I really have, but how would my mother react to this? Seeing her daughter in a deep and charming sleep when the sun has already risen above the eastern horizon?

As I slowly open my light brown eyes surrounded by delicate amber lines and as I let myself watch the life I'm trapped in I perceive an elegant fur ball approaching to my bed until that sweet thingy jumps into my bed.

Zeleni, my best pet and my best fiend; Why wasn't I born being a cheetah? Why when I'm supposed to be free I'm more constrained than this pet which I own?

I kneel to pat his golden black-spotted fur delighting in the sweetness of his gentle and playful attacks which are more a sign of his affection and love than an offence.

Can all this be happening to me?
