It was the world first go around and I still to this day remember when I got this so called blissed masked curse. I was just a mere 17 now 18- year-old today, working in my father's field, harvesting the grain and vegertables. It was a simple dull life, but I loved it and was happy.
"Dad! I think some bugs or tiny grimm got to our tomatoes again," I called to him. He walks over from the lettuce to inspect what I was talking about. He bends down as I move to the side to allow him more room to see as I held up the fruit to him. "Hmm I do believe you are right daer about it being bugs. Nasty little things but like all else in the world they do need food to live. Grab all the eaten tomatoes you can find and put them in a pile from the rest. Maybe they well attract the bugs away from the rest," he suggested. I gave a nod, "yes father."
I started to gather as much of the tomatoes as I can in my arms and started my walk to the edge of our farm. Once I made, I was startled by the sight of the twin gods of light and dark standing before me. I dropped the tomatoes, not caring if they splattered on me, making me a mess in front of the glorious gods. I started to kneel before them till I heard the god of light's voice speak to me. "Please no little one. Raise and stand as an equal to us." I was in shok but rose no less on wobbling legs.
"Oh, glorious gods it is of great pleasure for you to grace us with your presence, but I must ask why are you here? Did we do something that angered you?" I asked with as much of a sturdy voice I could muster as I gave a small bow to them and stodd firm as I could once I rose back up to look at them in their featureless faces. Before they could say anything my family of my father, mother and little brother came running over. "Honey, what are you doing?! Kneel before the gods, for goodness sake," my mother half heartily scold me.
My brother knelt as my mother and father made me knell and did the same on either side of me. "Brothers of light and dark, we kneel before you in greeting and to thank you for gracing us with you presence. What is it that we shall do for you both?" my mother asked. "We ask for your daughter," the god of darkness spoke. My family and I were in shock and terror. My family held me as my father asked the gods what the want of me.
'Have... have I done somthing to anger them? Have they come to kill me themselves or test me to see if I'm even worth keeping alive despite what I did?' I thought.
"Let me elaborate, we wish to have your daughter with and for us. A guard if you wsh to say, to help keep the balance of the world," the brother of light said. I felt I was holding my breath as the siblings look at me, looking straight into my very soul. "Raise and come to us child," the god of darkness spoke. I rose up to my feet and walked up the them till I had to crane my neck father back to see their faces. "Young Claire Granger. We have watched you since birth. We both see that you the perfect person to be our guard and work for us. But know this, you shall live as long as we are around and for that to happen you must be made immortal."
