Who are you?

"I can't believe it, I'm actually the Su Baera" said Ibaeran with a smile on her face, still a bit shocked that she actually claimed the steel wings and became the next Su Baera.

"Yes, you are Ibaeran but your journey isn't over," said the Su Ingi.

Ibaeran then remembered what she had to do as the new Su Baera; she had to free her people from the suffering, torment and torture inflicted upon them by the Uha Tamunarans so that what happened to Preyina, her closest and dearest friend would not happen to another soul.

"I understand Su Ingi" said Ibaeran with a deep sigh.

The Su Ingi then went to Ibaeran and placed her hand on her shoulder before saying, "no you don't".

"What?" said Ibaeran upon hearing what the Su Ingi said?

"You don't understand," said the Su Ingi.

"But I have done so much, fought so many battles, gotten strong and even claimed the steel wings of the Su Baera" said Ibaeran.

"Yes, that is all true but tell me why did you fight so hard and come so far, was it to keep a promise you made to your friend on her death bed, for your people or did you do it for yourself" asked the Su Ingi.

"I…" Ibaeran did not know what say, she could provide an answer to the Su Ingi's many questions as she didn't have answer to give.

It is true that she made a promise to Preyina on her death bed but that was not the reason she continued to fight and it was true too that she hated seeing her people suffer under the suppressive hands of the Uha Tamunaran's but that only fueled the desire within her to continue to fight but wasn't the main reason she fought so hard, then if she didn't do it all to honor the promise she made to her dead friend or for her people she must have done it for herself but that was not the case.

Ibaeran fought hard but not for herself, for something she felt deep within her, a driving and uncontrollable that force that pushed her beyond her limit but she didn't understand what that force was or why is pushed to fight so hard.

After a few moments passed Ibaeran could not utter a single word as she still did not have an answer to give.

"Alright then, since this question is too complex for you to answer I have a simpler one for you. Who are you, the Su Baera or Ibaeran?" asked the Su Ingi.

"I'm…I" Ibaeran once again did not have answer as she wasn't even sure who she was anymore.

She had worked and fought so hard to claim the power of the steel wings and now that she finally acquiring the power, she wasn't sure who she was anymore.

She knew she was much stronger than she was before and now possessed all the strength and power of the Su Baera but other than that she didn't feel any different from the person she was before but at the same time she knew she wasn't the same as before.

Ibaeran at that very moment, after everything she had been through, all the battle she had fought could no longer tell if she was still herself or the Su Baera.

The Su Ingi just smiled underneath her cloak at her before placing her hand on the side of her cheeks and saying, "you don't understand but in time you will, you have to".

"And what if I don't" asked Ibaeran.

"Then the same fate that came upon the former Su Baera before you will be your fate as well," said the Su Ingi.

Ibaeran eyes then widened with fear upon hearing what the Su Ingi said.

"Be strong Ibaeran, you have to be for the battle ahead requires tremendous strength; it won't be easy in fact it would be the hardest thing you have ever had to do. Be strong, fight with all you heart and most importantly be true to yourself, if you can do all this you will the answer to the question" said the Su Ingi and with those words said a flash of light appeared out of nowhere and Ibaeran found herself within the cave, standing in front of the king and his guards who just looked at her with a look of complete and utter shock.

"Finally, my search is over, after all these years I finally found the Su Baera" said the king as he went to Ibaeran with a smile on his face.

"You will accompany me to my palace, there you will train and master the power of the Su Baera after that you will retrieve the Dumo stone for me," said the king.

"Then will you free my people" asked Ibaeran.

"You have my word, if you get me the Dumo stone, the Uha Tamunarans will leave your people in peace," said the king.

Ibaeran was not entire if she could trust the king but she didn't have much of a choice in the matter as the former Su Baera had fallen to the king's great power even with all the power he possessed as a Su Baera, even Ibaeran now had all the power of Su Baera she feared that she would fall like the former Su Baera did to the king's power if she tried to go against him.

"Alright then, let's go" said Ibaeran.

The king upon hearing what Ibaeran said was pleased that she agreed with him so easily.

"Come Su Baera, you have much to do" said the king with a smile on his face.

The king, Ibaeran and the guards that followed them then with back to the sky ship and then left the dead waste land.

Ibaeran sat next to the window as they left with a look of uncertainty on her face as she thought about the power she now possessed as the new Su Baera and all the responsibility that came with it.

She then sighed, feeling the overwhelming weight of responsibility that came from being the Su Baera slowly crushing her as she thought about all the nations of the world and how they were counting on her to free them from their Uha Tamunaran oppressors.

Ibaeran then sighed once again, this more deeply with a sad look on her face as the fear of failure began to fill mind with thoughts of her failing as the Su Baera, failing to free the nations of the world and more importantly failing herself after fighting so hard and coming so far.

The very thought of failing made Ibaeran's heart with fear and her hands to shake with sweat overflowing out of her body river.

But as Ibaeran began to feel overwhelmed by her thought she remembered Preyina and the promise she made.

"You can at least try Ibaeran"

Her friend's words echoed in her mind and as they did Ibaeran felt a wave of strength and power flow through her, like nothing she ever felt before.

Ibaeran at that very moment realized that she had come too far to fall and crumble because of her fear of fail, she was now the Su Baera, fill with all the power and strength of the Su Baera, she was now determined to not just try but to save her people.

And as the feeling of fear disappeared, replaced with determination Ibaeran felt power flow out of the steel wings and in to her.

Ibaeran then crushed her arm in to a tight fist which then began to glow as she did, feeling the power of the Su Baera flow through her entire body.
