The Atlantean Compensator 43 The Rising Sun

After taking some time to rest.

Making some early friends.h.i.+p bounds with the Majestic Guardians...

Sahaqiel tells him he should enter the castle, even if it's still so early.

*6am*

At this point, all 6 Atlanteans have been lured into sleep by their exhaustion. Even if it was against their will.

*Sahaqiel and Galahad opens up the gate*

Herald looks in awe.

"..This is magical really!! As if the heaven's door is being opened to me."

Sahaqiel. "Don't say that, nothing can compare to what you said."

Herald. "You're right..

Still, i can hardly believe the scenes am lately seeing."

Galahad. "It's alright, but I want you to get used to that real fast.

There isn't much time for gazing."

Herald. "Yeah, you're right as well...

So, when do I go from here? And where are the others now?"

Sahaqiel. "Just go there discover the place on your own until you'll be met by the masters, and eventually your brothers."

Herald can't wait to tell Oumad what he had experienced the last day.

"Well, alright why not..

It is goodbye for now, again i am very thankful for your hospitality."

Sahaqiel and Galahad. "Anytime."

*They close the gate back again.*

*Herald sighs, then a big inhale*

The air here feels...different!

So pure, and easy to breath. It feels like i can float on it. Too bad i can only do that in my mind right hehe...

*suddenly*

Herald feels that his legs were a little up from the ground.

He checks again but he's standing still, like he always did since he was born.

He lets out a stupid laugh.

"Hahahahaha... Did i really thought i would?

Maybe I can be like them but certainly not from day one..."

Anyways, Herald will wander through the beautiful pa.s.sages of the castle., in the middle of the beautiful roses and water tunnels.

Discovering each part.

Until he saw someone taking a walk from afar..

He didn't know who he was. But he thought that It may be Sebastin.

Looks tall and pretty young.

He decided to go there and talk to him personally rather than calling him from afar.

The young man he spotted was taking a walk in the big castle's Arena, with his hands crossed on his back.

As Herald came close, The man turned back his head slowly, as if he knew that Herald was on his way.

Herald slowed down his walk, and tried to look and see whether it's really Sebastin or not.

But Herald already doesn't remember well how his face looks like in the first place!

The young man turned arround completely, to face Herald.

He said. "I come in peace."

Herald automatically responded as he's slowly approaching.

"Peace be upon you."

The young man stayed silent for a moment.

"Don't be scared!

Come take a walk with me."

Herald. "Well, not that I am scared I just am...new here!

I don't know who's here and who's not."

The man laughed. "Hhahahaha..You'll know soon enough."

*Herald arrives right where the man is*

They both shake hands.

The young man held Herald's hands pretty tightly, and for longer time that Herald felt that he maybe knows him.

"...So you like shaking hands?"

The man replied.

"Well, depends on the person definitely.

My name is eremiah."

Herald. "Eremiah... Never Have i heard someone with a name like that.

It's nice."

Eremiah. "Have you heard someone by the name of Herald?"

Herald finally thinks for a moment about how he never thought of this...

'How?...A simple matter like this escaped me...

I always liked my name for some reason but i never went beyond that...'

"..Would you believe it if I said i never thought about this in the first place?"

Eremiah smiled, and replied.

"Ofcourse i'd believe you."

Herald. "So..This is The Atleantean a.s.sociation...

It's beautiful.

That helps making me immerge with the place faster."

Eremiah. "It is most beautiful at this time.

Look up there! The rising sun, kissing whatever comes on its sight."

Herald looks..

"..Yeah, Certainly one of the better sunrises I've seen.

Well tell me, you're one of the masters here?"

...

Herald keeps on looking at the sunrise waiting for an answer, then asks again.

"Mr. Eremiah.."

He looks towards him, but he's gone!

Herald tries to reach up for him but he's nowhere to be seen...

It's as if He was talking with himself.

Confused, but with a smile

he brushed it off...

As he continued to gaze at the beautiful paysage, he said.

"Eremiah...

A nice man i must say..."

Herald kept on discovering the place.

Until Oumad woke up, looked at the window and saw his brother walking alone. He hurried up to meet him outside as if he hadn't met him for years.

Herald notices the running Oumad,

Herald smiles a large smile and awaits for his companion's big hug that's going to hurt a little.

As the morning sun s.h.i.+neth upon thee...
