What kind of services?
The steps of people hurrying up could be heard through the walls of the nursery. Then total silence, this put Clair more nervous than she already was, if that was possible. But soon she could hear steps coming towards her. Clair kept her eyes shut pretending she was asleep, in case if the nurse decided to give her a shot she wouldn't be able to, not first knowing if she was allergic to something. If it was her or wasn't she didn't know. Then she felt something dizzy and fainted.
When Clair woke up she didn't immediately open her eyes, she just stood there hearing a conversation between two insane (with a high probability of being) persons, or that was what she thought
"Did you kill her? I told you to give her just a drop of the potion" said the first voice. This voice seemed to belong to a very old person, and a really insane one.
"I did what you told me to, I just gave her one drop of it, and if you ask me that was really unfair to her! It wasn't diplomatic" said the second voice. On the other hand this voice seemed to belong to a man, a young man probably 18 years old or 17.
"Then why doesn't she wake up? We need her services" said the first voice. That was enough to Clair. Were they rapiers? That would explain of needing her services and they probably gave her something to sleep! How terrible, she thought almost crying, but she just kept her eyes shut. She felt a bit of wind and grass in her hands, that was a good start, she was dressed, maybe I can get away from this horrible persons
"I think thou fair lady is waking up" said the second voice. That had really startled Clair, she had moved a bit her head, but that didn't had scared it was how the third person talked, thou? She had heard about it in history it meant your and fair lady? She loved history and knew that princes called that way to women and girls, but her? In the 21st century? They talked like people from the 12th century! They WERE insane.
She decided to open her eyes a bit. And that was what she did, and that was the most ridiculous and scary thing at the time she had ever seen in her life. She would not laugh at them, because she was too scared to but instead she began to giggle as she stood up.
"Why is this lady laughing at?" asked the second voice she had heard. She wasn't wrong he was about 17 years old and was really handsome. He was tall maybe 1. 95 was her guess and had two green eyes and dark hair. He was wearing strange clothes like the one of the movies which told stories of kings, yes he was dressed up just like that.
"Don't ask me, not certainly I think the potion went, but she is the fair lady of the drawing it looks exactly as this lady" said the first voice. The man was certainly old; he had a white and long beard and white hair. He also tall, taller than the second one, but he had his back curved and he wore a white cape that covered almost all his body. As she looked at this two persons talking about if she was, we really don't know what, but she saw the sky blue with no clouds, and the grass green and the tallest tree she had ever seen, and she saw hills and hills covered up with green grass and tall trees, it was a really beautiful place.
"Who are you? What is this place? And what am I doing here oh and how did I get here?" those were the questions she could ask, perhaps it would give her an idea of what was happening there.
"She speaks in the same language!" said the old man " How delightful" he cried putting his hand way up in a strange way
"They call me-" tried to say the man or boy for the old man interrupted him eagerly
"There is no use of such diplomatic conversations" said the old man "I am Gorgan the wizard, and he is Danver son of Tolden from the house of Hergerlis. We are in Ferstain you traveled through dimensions and time and what are you doing here must not be revealed here" he said mysteriously
"What? I mean you've gone completely outta your mind, I mean seriously and grave" she said trying to sound reasonable, those names made no sense and wizard? That was insane
"What has the fair lady said?" said the man or Danver with a real puzzled look
"This lady has journeyed from other time and other world, perhaps the lady is speaking in their way to speak" said Gorgan wisely, or at least it was said with a wisely voice
"Stop calling me lady or anything related to that, I have a name and it is Clair" she said trying to speak in a way that those people would understand her "In which country are we and which is the year that we are in?" she asked. She had seen in T.V. when people forget everything or go crazy, the doctors used simple questions to see how grave were they
"We are in Ferstain you already asked that and we answered and it is the year 1106" said Danver
"What?!" she exclaimed. There were two possibilities of what were happening in that: the first one was that they were saying the truth and everything was true and the second one was that they were insane. She wished it was the first reason, it would be wonderful to all her dreams come true, but the second reason was reality. "Show me something that will prove leaving no question that what you say is true" she said triumphantly. That was a great idea, if they showed her something like magic it would be true and if they showed her something totally normal for her it would be a lie.
"That is something not difficult at all!" exclaimed the wizard Gorgan. As he said that he lifted his hands up and began to say strange things, and must say really weird things in an other language never heard before. And as he finished saying whatever he was saying, they found themselves in a white room. It was really big and had beds, and there was Clair lying on one of them.
"What is this?" asked Clair confused, she couldn't be in two places at a time.
"We have traveled into the past" said Gorgan "Now if you pay attention, on front of the bed where you were laying down, a time hole shall appear" it was true, a hole had just appeared and from it Danver came out with a sword in his right hand. Just then he looked around, put the sword into his belt and from his clothes he took a little bottle and gave a drop to Clair.
"See, I said to you I had given her just one drop of that potion!" exclaimed Danver triumphantly. After he gave her a drop he carefully put the potion back into its place and hold Clair like a princess and took her into the hole as it vanished. When they disappeared the nurse came back.
"Now don't worry they aren't able to see us, for we are invisible to their eyes" said Gorgan. Surprisingly the nurse didn't notice Clair had gone missing and began to make the bed.
"How can she not notice I have gone?" asked Clair puzzle for the reaction she would have expected from the nurse was totally contrary of what they had seen
"Well dear, it isn't easy to explain it" said the wizard worried "You do not belong to that time or world, you see there is a prophecy that says that in time of the inevitable war everyone shall die, but this is one of the destinies, you must look for the lost warier and you shall be saved. Of course that is a fragment of the entire prophecy"
"Sure, what I don't understand is what am I doing here?" said Clair. She had begun to believe the whole story. It was amazing how they had traveled through time. That was enough magic for her to believe that they were not insane and magic existed! After all those years she had been right.
"You are the lost warrior" said Danver "You are the person who the prophecy describes. You believe in magic in a world where no one does. You are the lady from the drawing everything that the prophecy mentions is you"
"Listen, this has been my dream for years, but t can't be real. Maybe you are right or the prophecy I like to think that magic exists, but I know it is something that exists in my dreams. I don't know how you did that thing but I just doesn't go with nature and its order" said Clair trying to make her understand. She loved to believe in magic, but it didn't fit on reality, but deeply in her heart she knew they were telling the truth, and she desperately wanted to say I believe you, but it was against what they had taught her.
"This is too much lost of time" said Danver impatient "We can explain to her later at Gasteg, we are too late!"
"Oh no, I am not going anywhere before you explain me what is happening here" she said. This was too much fro her to understand and that guy wanted to do it fast.
"My fair lady" said Gorgan bowing "I shall explain to thee everything once we have arrived to Gasteg. Danver is right we are loosing too much time now lady do you know how to ride a horse?"
This is insane, she thought, I can't believe I'm going to ride to somewhere Gas something when I barely know them!
"Yes I can" said Clair "But there are no horses here" she said smiling
"No, but there will be" said the wizard with a wink. And just then in front of their eyes 3 horses appeared.
"How?" managed Clair to say perplex
"Magic" he said mysteriously
And then everyone hopped into their horses. Clair had had lessons and she did pretty well. She loved horses and even more to ride them. So it wasn't difficult to go as fast as Danver or Gorgan. They were really good at riding horses. Clair liked how Danvers hair went with the wind she wondered how her hair would look like from the back.
They traveled kms. through green grass and tall trees and hills. At first it was quite a view but then it started to bore her. Couldn't there be something more exciting? She asked herself.
