Chapter 32: A World of Foresight
Taranee and Elyon being the only ones left, continued sadly on their way through to the next portal. Once they walked through, they noticed a place that Taranee hadn't been to yet. The ceiling of the room they appeared in is high and the room rather large. The whole place is lit up by only a few lights. Both girls astonished, they had never seen such a place. The walls white as well as the floor and so on. Any shelves in the room are white; everything in the room is white. The chandelier is made of crystal and the windows are so clear they could have sworn that there aren't any. Soon a man walked into the room his hands clasped together in front of him. His robe is white just like everything else. "Hello Guardian and her highness Queen Elyon." The man said bowing.
"Where are we?" The two asked in unison.
The man chuckled a bit and then answered. "You two are in a world that is known to only myself and the Oracle. This is the world of foresight. No more needs to be seen. I live here with only a few others of which only help me but do not see what it is I see. To have foresight you must have the knowledge. This world is bigger then what you see here. In this world is the future of all those that were, are, and will be alive. Those that have past live here with me and keep everything organized. I know who will and wont be here with me." Taranee had to interrupt out of confusion about something.
"You said that only you and the Oracle know of this place though, yet you said that others live here." Taranee said.
"That is true until now when you two arrived. Those that live here keep everything organized but they do not recall themselves as being here. For them to know where they are is for this place to become corrupt and so they don't know they are here but they know what they do and once you leave this place you will lose all recognition of being here but you'll realize that you were somewhere. This world is very delicate and if it were to be disturbed by anyone it could throw the worlds into chaos and even their ultimate destruction. Enough of this world though, you have only come for one reason. That reason is one I cannot tell and which you must figure out on your own. Good day to the both of you." With that the man left.
Taranee and Elyon looked at each other and then ran toward the door that the man walked through but when they opened it, there was nothing but space. They shut the door and then turned around to find more shelves then before with more books. "Ok this place is; I don't know what this place is other then confusing." Taranee said rubbing her temples.
"So Taranee, what do we do, look through the books?" Elyon asked though she already had the answer. The two of them went and looked through a many books but none of the books had any kind of wording on or in them. Then Elyon noticed a book with words on it. She picked up the book and looked at it. 'Knowledge of Things Already Known.' "What in the world does that mean?" Elyon yelled out.
Taranee ran over and took the book from Elyon and read the title. 'Acknowledge the Things to Come.' "This isn't the same title that you read." Elyon and Taranee read the title at the same time and both read different things. "I'll start reading first Elyon." Taranee took the book and opened it up. 'Your future is certain so long as you don't leave the day you arrive.' Taranee then handed the book to Elyon.
'You're queen but vulnerable.' "What is all this, none of it makes sense." Elyon said getting frustrated and then handed the book back to Taranee.
Taranee took the book and opened up to the second page. 'Sometimes to leave is death when you know not what is waiting.' Taranee then handed the book back to Elyon.
'A guardian by herself is nothing without her friends.' "I get that I think. Who are we kidding, none of this makes sense." Elyon set the book down and leaned against the bookshelf.
Taranee had to admit that she too is utterly confused and then it dawned on her. "Elyon, it all makes perfect sense, we just aren't looking at it the correct way." Taranee picked up the book and then read the title. "My title says Acknowledge what is to come and yours said Knowledge of things already known correct." Elyon nodded not sure where Taranee was going with this. "For me I have to realize that things in the future are going to happen and for you, it's telling you things that you already know but never really thought about." Elyon still wasn't sure where Taranee was going but agreed anyway. "My first sentence says, 'Your future is certain so long as you don't leave the day you arrive.' Yours says"
"'You're queen but vulnerable.'" Elyon answered since Taranee couldn't remember.
"Right, we're here and if we leave we'll die and that's where the next page comes in. 'Sometimes to leave is death when you know not what is waiting.' Yours says"
"'A guardian by herself is nothing without her friends.'" Elyon once again answered.
"Again if we leave we die because you're vulnerable because I can't do a thing without the others. It's a hint and it's telling us what is going to happen if we leave. Remember that this is the world of foresight but the future isn't written in stone. So we stay until the words change." Taranee explained.
"Taranee, you're a genius but does it work that way?" Elyon asked though it didn't look as though they have much of an option.
"That's the best guess I've got but hey if you have another idea I'm all ears." Elyon shook her head.
Then the man appeared back into the room. "You understand meanings very well guardian and now it's time you take your leave and you must hurry before all is lost." The man then disappeared and a red portal appeared. The two looked at each other, nodded and went through and found them in the vampire land and someone running up to them.
