A messenger pigeon flew across the sky. It landed on the nearest tree branch, to rest and pick up some breakfast. It was on a little mission that meant a lot. It was flying to northern Amaya, from middle Stetriol.
Halfway from reaching Amaya, it came across a huge castle in Eura. It toured the place, to see a little girl, not looking very happy. The pigeon turned away, looking furious for once. People. Again, what was with them? They always seemed angry and, even so, they're the most blessed species on Erdas. What was their point?
After seeing the raged Zhongnese girl, the pigeon figured that its master would be the same, it the message was not delivered.
The pigeon was not a spirit animal. It used to be, though, an animal of slavery, once bounded with the bile. It didn't miss the times of cruelty, and of tears. Though not as deep, even a mere little pigeon had feelings.
It set off the next morning, at dawn. The sun was still hiding behind the grassy hills of the castle. But it had one little stop before going across the vast ocean. It dived down, to a glass window, and saw the same Zhongnese girl. She ignored it, although the pigeon thought it had seen a little curious glimpse from the girl.
Once humans were angry, they stayed angry.
The pigeon decided it had seen enough. It now set off to the blue ocean, surrounding the castle.
The ocean was nothing to it. It had seen too much of the ocean. Humans admire it with every thought. They would come and make trips to the ocean shore. The pigeon, however, also makes trips to the shore, but not intentionally.
After three days of exhausting flying, it thought it could see the shore of Amaya.
It perched on a tree branch, above the mountains.
Finally, it had reached the receiver.
Funny, how fast time passes.
A little boy was bounded to a tree. Such horrible acts committed by man.
A second to a minute, a minute to an hour. It was all the time in the world, but less than a millisecond.
A creak of an arrow.
A fallen feather.
A cry of agony.
A burden of forever.
Wow. That was one of the shortest chapters in so long. I promise I'll update again today. I hope you like the messenger pigeon's pov!
