Things that we see, are they there, or are they tricks that are played by our mind, illusions...
Clairvoyance, is it a blessing or a curse, I guess it depends on the one that has it...
Seers, prophets, do they exist, or are they putting on a show for the wanted believers...
Can what we see with our own eyes be the truth, or are we being fooled...Then what about the ones with the sight, are they able to see the truth better than us, or are
they being fooled too...
Blind Ambition...
The two witches sat there in the park on the bench in silence. The clang of the town clock striking twelve times. Winds picked up, making it colder, but they still
stayed there. Auberon glanced at Aidan with a slight frown. He was wondering why he hasn't heard of this witch before, or at least stories about him. Aidan heard
the other witch move by the sliding sound of his leather jacket. Aidan turned to face him, Auberon was slightly taken back, he was impress with how sharp his other
senses were, since he's blind. The curiosity was killing him, he had to know what Aidan's history was about. Without even waiting for him to ask, Aidan launched
into his own story.
Awakened at a very young age of twelve. He was already born blind, as soon as his parents found out about his "gift" they abandoned him. Aidan didn't care, all he
cared about was that he finally had power. He went around Italy predicting different things for people. One day, the church heard that a young boy was making
outlandish predictions to the population. So they decided that it was high time for the boy to stop. The people of the church sought him out, Aidan already knew this,
because he was waiting for them by an old barn out in the country that wasn't too far from the city limits. Anyway, the people of the church demanded that he cease
and desist giving predictions. Aidan only laughed at their demands. Telling them that people want to know what will happen in the future, and that nothing can or will
stop him from carrying out what the people of Italy wanted to know. They became angry and decided to attack him. Aidan again wasn't worried, even for a blind
child, he could still defend himself very well. It didn't take long for Aidan to defeat the church people. He smiled as he left the dead bodies behind.
Auberon looked at him in complete wonder. He couldn't believe that someone so young had such ability. Aidan just laughed and told him that there was more to the
story. Auberon listened with full attention as Aidan continued his life story.
A few years later, Aidan came to a big city that hasn't heard of his reputation as of yet. So he decided to walk around to get a feel for it. Aidan knew that this city
would be the perfect place to set up his next operation. He decided to set out and find a place that would suit both as a home and a place of business, so to speak.
He came upon a somewhat old brick building. Aidan could tell that it had quite a bit of history, because of how it felt. He went to seek out the recent owner of the
old building. Aidan didn't have to go very far to find him. The owner was a drunk that was down on his luck, the money that he owed on his building was going to be
due the next day. He had to do something to get the money, he was desperate to do anything. Aidan went over to the lush and for some reason, he decided to help
him. The two became partners of a new business. Aidan would tell fortunes, and the building owner would take in the money that people paid to get their fortunes
told. He realized that Aidan and his "gift" was the best thing that happened to him in a long time. Until one day, the owner wanted Aidan to breach out and get more
"clients" as he put it. Aidan knew that the owner was getting more than a little greedy for his own good, but he didn't care. Aidan knew that the owner was going to
get it in the end, and he was right. The next day the owner of the building went out for a walk, and never came back. The people became alarmed, and went to the
building, demanding to see Aidan. But when they got there, he was gone, it was like he wasn't even there.
When Aidan finally turned eighteen, he decided that it was time to search for his parents. He wanted revenge for the ones that abandoned him when he was just a
child. Aidan was using his predictions to try and find them. It took a couple of more months before he actually pinned down their location. It was on a stormy night,
one of the worst storms that Italy has seen in a long time. The rain was coming down so hard that it was causing small dents on the roads and sidewalks. The
lightning flashed violently, thunder rumbled so loud that it could drown out any sound in an one mile radius. Aidan finally made it to the town that his parents were
living. While they were quickly trying to get inside, the father saw a quick glance of who he thought looked exactly like his son. The wife glanced over towards him
asking what's wrong. The husband said it was nothing and hurried her inside. Aidan quickly followed, he knew where he was going because his predictions told him
where to go. The husband quickly locked the door as soon as they were both inside. The wife knew that something was wrong and demanded him to tell her. So he
did, she gave him a look of shock, she couldn't believe that their son was still alive after all this time. A sounds of crashing glass could be heard from the kitchen. The
husband kept his wife behind him when he went to investigate. As soon as they were there, the room was empty, but there was broken glass and water from the rain
on the floor. The lightning illuminated the sky, and then when they turned around, there was their son standing before them. Two screams echoed through out the
house, but they were drowned out by the loud tumbling of the thunder. Aidan walked away from the house, and out of Italy for the last time.
La verità chiaramente non è sempre vista. È nascosto da ciò che vogliamo credere è vero; ciò che non è realmente lí.
(The truth is not always clearly seen. It's hidden by what we want to believe is true; not what is really there.)
