Capítulo 4: Chapter 4

Serene's POV

Zian and Crimzon left while I went to see grandma. Her room was on the ground floor to the left of the dining hall. I knocked on her door. "Come in," she answered sweetly.

I opened the door and went in. Her face lit up as she saw me and I quickly went over to sit beside her on the bed.

"Back so soon, didn't you and Zian go to have a fun day out," she asked me.

"Yes, Grandma we did. But, while we were out in the forest something happened. I need your expertise on that if something like that has ever happened before," her face fell at my serious voice.

"What happened my dear?" She asked me in a concerned voice.

I narrated the whole incident and then waited for her response.

"Are you alright my dear?" She was shocked and hugged me tightly.

"I am alright grandma but I can't wrap my head around it."

"Well, in the entirety of my life I have never heard of any such incident. Some people have died trying to enter the Dark Realm but they went of their own free will as much as we know. People like thieves and bandits try to get in. Maybe to get hold of some creatures which they can control or sell. But never heard of someone being controlled to enter it." She told me while I was her mind was engrossed in making head and tail of what has happened.

She continued: "But, the Fae who prepared the spell along with the witch was from our bloodline. She was our ancestor and was the most powerful Fae of her time and even today her name is written in golden words. It might have to do something with our blood because it was used in the spell and the same blood runs through your veins. That's the only thing which comes to my mind."

"Hmm, I see grandma. I will try to find the answer and soon I will be leaving here, so I needed to know what exactly has happened to me. I have heard that my new institute has one of the biggest libraries in our world, therefore, I will have more chances of finding an answer there. "

"Be careful, my child of whomever you trust and entrust your secrets. You will meet all kinds of people there with their own agendas. So, take heed and trust your gut. I believe in you. Meanwhile, try to stay away from the Dark Realm and never go there alone, " she cautioned me.

"I will grandma, I absolutely will," I assured her.

" Can you tell me more about this ancestor of ours who came up with the spell to seal off the dark realm? I have read a bit about her in our history books but I don't know all the details. And, how all this could be connected to me." I asked her curiously.

"Her name was Sahala and she manifested a great power, some kind of shield, like you but different in some aspects. She also wielded a crossbow just like you. From what I have read about her in a lot of aspects you two are quite similar. But, she had a tragic life and the loss of her husband pushed her to take some drastic measures and it's believed to be the turning point in her life which lead to the sealing away of the Dark Realm. It manifested a special power in her which was unfathomable and was used in that binding spell which held on even after her death." Grandma explained it to me in detail.

" I see. Is it possible that I inherited her powers but can bring about the opposite effect?" I asked curiously.

"Anything is possible my dear. But, your heart is pure and it can't be corrupted. I highly doubt that you are some harbinger of bad news if that's what you are thinking about. " She reassured me.

"Don't think too deeply into this. Try to relax and enjoy the time you have here. Soon, you won't be able to with your new institute and overload of studies." She patted me on my shoulder and I smiled.
