CHAPTER 1: THE FALLEN STAR
The man wearing a long shining white clothes was looking at the quiet lake just by his window. The man's hair is jet black and long, the face is soft, almost feminine, but still strong enough to be identified as a male. His body was lean and muscular, and the clothes which is like a cloth drape across his shoulder to cover his body did nothing to conceal his features. This man is ethereal. The man looked at the sky.
His eyes widen when he noticed that one of the stars vanished after he blinked.
"The savior has arrived."
The moment he said those words, the statue of phoenix which is resting among the statues in his room suddenly was set on fire. As the fire disappeared, the statue became a real phoenix. The bird is on fire yet it is cold and soothing. The bird flew towards the man and rested on his shoulder. The man didn't turn but trusted the soothing presence of the trusted bird. "Hedwig, the moment is coming to us now. The black deluge is approaching and only the savior can save us all."
The man listened to the unvoiced reply of the bird. "I don't know, Hedwig. It may take days, weeks, years, even decades and centuries. But we must trust the oracle. And the savior will sail down from his boat in the least opportune time. The people will condemn him but the man will stand for us all. I believe that the savior will come. I know he will." He listened again. "Even if they stopped him, they cannot stop that moment. The savior will slay the dragon and bury its atrocities. No bones will be left unnamed."
As the man was talking to his bird, the door to his rooms opened. A man with dark red hair in light leather armor suit entered and bow to the man in the window. "Seer Harry," the soldier said in his low and resonating voice, "the Lord required your presence in his chamber." The man – Harry – turned to the soldier and smiled sadly, "Thank you, Ron. How is your wife? Are the children alright?"
The man smiled, "Yes they are. Hermione never stopped thanking you for saving his children."
Harry chuckled softly. "It is my pleasure to help you and your family." Harry looked turned again to the lake with a sad, longing expression.
Ron – the soldier – had known the seer for years now. When Ron was relieved from the institution and be a soldier he was meant to be, he was posted on Harry's room. At first the man was unapproachable and says only few words. Some days he just smile and never answered back. But two years ago after the birth of his first child with Hermione, the seer approached him and told him to go home now because his family is in grave danger. At first he was surprised but the man was very adamant and saying if he will not go, his family will not survive. When he ran home, the fire was blazing and destroying the house. Fortunately he was just in time to save his family. Since then he was greatly indebted to Harry. He is just sad that he cannot do anything to the man now. He wanted to help the man in escaping if only the man will say so.
Ron cleared his throat to continue, "I am here to accompany you there."
The man stayed silent for few seconds before turning to Ron and walk towards him. "Let's go," he said quietly. Ron nodded, turned to the corridor and led the way.
As they walk, silence prevailed. Both men were in their own thoughts: one is about helping the other man the other is about how to help the world.
