99 High Priestess

Activating her eyes, Tria looked up at the sky and focused on the thin barrier surrounding the Unknown Land. She raised her hands and from out of all corners of the land shot up lines of lights merging at the center, forming a dome of light and sprinkling divine pure energy down.

The new barrier of light became solid and the shine faded away leaving the land calm and at peace. The people were no longer in danger from the effects of the war from the God realm, leaving now only the threat of the Eye clan.

From the people were shouts, cries, and prayers dedicated to the priestess's blessing upon them.

"The priestess is here! The priestess is here!"

"Oh ancient priestesses, you have not forsaken us!"

"Thank you!"

"Thank you! Praise the priestess!"

Joyful cries were echoing throughout the land as the gold light barrier strengthened. However on a little island at the center were angry grunts and surprised looks at the bright sky.

"How did the priestess this time around make it here without our knowing, what is that bastard doing in the Moon Land letting people through here like this? Investigate what's going on and go to the mainland to find that girl, it shouldn't be that hard to capture her but why has it taken so long?"

The person speaking was an old lady, wearing a long sleeves dress showing her thin hands at each end with her long nails curled underneath.

"Yes Madame Marga," answered a man who was standing behind her, her assistant Ro.

"Ro, make all of our guys are ready, the priestess this time gives me a weird feeling of insecurity, maybe she's not just a simple priestess, after all, to create a barrier a barrier of this size, only someone close to being a high priestess could achieve it."

"A High Priestess? but madame, high priestesses are a myth, to this day we've only heard about them from the stories of our ancestors," Ro answered with his head bowed.

"Ancestors? I am your ancestor and I'm telling you it's not a myth...but I would have to confirm first, because if she is, our god's wish will finally be realized, and you know what that means, don't you?"

"Yes, Madame, we will all ascend into the God Realm."

"That's right, so go fetch that stinking brat and make sure to not fail...or else," Madame Marga said glaring at the tall man.

"That will not be an option Madame, I will come back soon."

"Hmm."

Ro left and Madame Marga was left in the chamber on her own, looking outside her window towards the mainland. She was the highest authority in the clan, that was second after their god, of course. Below her, were the twin brothers who were in control of production and management of their men and after them came Ro's little sister. Although she was young, she was known as a devil, it was her who was able to conquer the turtle's island and drive the merpeople away, she was the one who managed everything in the Unknown Land, Mistress Buni.

"The priestess is here huh? This should be fun, my dear brother should come over soon and tell me all about it, should I wait or should I go play with our pretty newcomer?" said Buni, a little girl with pigtails wearing a short black dress.
