at me.
“But the war?” I ask, shaking my head.
Mirium pats me gently on the arm. “The war we will fight
another day. But now we must leave and start your training.”
Everyone leaves to pack Tristan pauses as if to say something,
then changes his mind and leaves.
Mirium stays behind with me. “Pack light, we will get
garments and equipment on the way” he says.
I grab my satchel and stuff a few pieces of clothing into it.
I don't have anything really so I’m packed in minutes. When I
return to the main room, Mirium is still there.
“Mirium are you not going to pack?” I ask gently. He must
still be disorientated after the vision.
“No I have all I need here” he says tapping his staff on the
floor.
We gathering at the main gates of Aquaterra and say our
good-byes to everyone. Mei breaks my heart, as tears roll down
her little face, I hug her and promise her I will see her again.
Ndee has to pull her off me, as she won't let go.
I face the gates unable to look at Mei, as Ndee holds her tightly. I’m relieved when the gates open and we can leave. I hate good-byes.
Musa stays at the gates. I look back a few times until the
gate rises, and I can see him no more. Mirium leads the way, as
Tristan, Alana and I follow. Kiar and Legis stay behind to wait
for Morrick. We will all meet up outside Hummus. I take a deep
breath as I walk, yet once again, into the unknown
