Authors note: Third part chapter, I quit writing this from total lack of reveiws, but becuase afriend asked me to I will finish, even if she is the only one who reads this. I don't have a beta so I am trying to be as careful as I can with the errors. Um enjoy part three.
And so...
I look at the two and sigh I know I know. I have lost something, correct? Anessen nodded
"Correct indeed." "And then you may go on to the fourth step" said Aimereta. I nod what do I
need to regain now I ask. Aimereta and Anessen looked at each other. "You have regained your
eyes and you ears, now you must regain your breath, voice you must regain you mouth."I look
at them again it just now occurs to me something is wrong with yet another one of my senses, my
mouth now feels dry and though I remember talking and even eating I don't remember using
my mouth to speak nor do I remember the taste of food. Why do I only realize my lack of this
sense when it is mentioned I ask. This whole thing had been strange but now it was just not
making sense at all. Aimereta spoke now "Because otherwise you would be overwhelmed, when
you lose many things and need to regain them you can not do it all at once or your efforts will be
folly." "Yes" said Anessen " In order to walk you must go one step at a time you can not
concentrate on them all at once or you shall fall, or worse lose desire to stand at all!" Now they
spoke together " To get home you must walk step by step by step."
Then for a split second everything made sense then I become so cold and darkness filled my eyes.
Every thing hurts I can't tell if I'm laying down or standing, moving or still, I know am in pain
and so cold. I see white swirling violently around me, I hear the wind howling, at least I hope it
is the wind. Darkness takes me again.
I am in the tree house again, I am now warm but not ,at least I think, as warm as I was. Aimereta
and Anessen nod "We must hurry" they say "The light will soon return and you must be ready for
it!" What must I do to regain my voice and move on to the fourth step? " Sing with us" they said.
And so we all sit in the floor of the tree house. Sing what I ask? "We will start" said Anessen
"And you will join in and your voice will know what words to sing even if your mind does not."
said Aimereta. I nod Alright then let my regain my mouth then. Aimereta and Anessen start the
song it is slow and beautiful and then I began to sing as well, it is as Aimereta said my mind does
not know this song but my voice does. The song described a place. We sang more and I began to
hear my own voice to feel my mouth moving. The song described a cave of the old world, not a
dragon's cave, but not a halfling's cave either. I was beautiful, blue crystal was everywhere it
seemed casting a blue angelic glow just like the lake in the cave. My voice becomes louder and
stronger,... more real as does the cave around me. I look up at the cave's ceiling and almost gasp
millions of small crystals are in the ceiling giving it the appearance of a field of Varda's stars.
I then realized I can not hear Anessen and Aimereta's voices anymore nor am I in the tree house,
like a last sigh I hear there voices together whispering "Good Bye."
I am now in the cave but this movement from place to place, well it still surprises me but at the
same time I almost expect it. "Welcome to the fourth step" said a clear melancholy voice. I spin
around an find my self facing a strange girl. Her hair seems black with purple streaks in it. " My
name is Rela." " And I" said a voice from the shadows ," Am Dareth"
