C326-Unsown Land

Kennan crawles his way under the weeds. He took the mission to be sent toward the time leaper's hunter. He is still halfway to his destination yet every path was crucial. He was concealing his presence against a tribe that threatened to behead him. In this forest known as hooks, if you stand with your feet your head might be sliced off. He is in a prone position as if he does not have a limb. His progress is slow and laboriously. Kennan felt irritated and angry at his situation. He is rushing to gather some intel and here he is covered with dirt and in a laughable snail position. He can salute the snails who lives by kissing the soil.

The vibration from the earth alerted Kennan. It was thanks to this position he can now hear the dynamics and velocity coming from the bare feet that are after his head and neck.

Kennan started to glide on a deeper part of the ground to cover himself with the weeds.

The steps were approaching in a decibel that Kennan can take not of. He grit his teeth when there was no interval on it.

Kennan had no choice but to carefully dive in the nearest creek. He surmount and propel himself with the water. Kennan had his senses disabaled for diving. His breath were caught by the tributary water. Kenna only took in the hazy view of the murky ash borne water.

The sound of racing wind irked his ear. His skin felt a warm presence. His face looked like an older version of himself. Saga asked with a patch throat

"Who are you?"

"Am I dead?" He followed up as he remembered what previously happened.

The man smile and said.

"You are my offspring."

"No. Your alive."

Saga felt reassured as he allowed his eyes to flutter close.

Selah sat by Saga's side silently. She sincerely got worried. Selah used to vow to herself that she won't allow anyone to die in her care. Her lips started to open prayer.

"Our Healer who always brought us out from the brink of dead. I am a troubled daughter who calls in your Name. Heal our friend. Saved him. Let this desperation from my heart reach your unusual kindnesses that no human have ever done nor experienced. With hope, faith and love. I will trust your grace. Amen."

Kahieli stood behind the door. He heared Selah's voice through the hall. Kahieli closed his eyes to silently pray with Selah. He wanted this to end as well. The first time that they losed almost most of their family was back when Evi betrayed them. When he woke up in this era at a young age he started to act maturely. There is no papa that will protect them nor mama that will hug and sing for them.

When Ole and Kish joined them Kahieli started t believe that his parents might exist. When Mem visited them he was more in hype to look forward in seeing them again. Yet it took them years to learn that they already passed away. Kahieli started to think more in protect his siblings despite knowing his real identity. That woman called her son but Kish frimly declared that he is not an outsider to his parents nor siblings. When Kish died few weeks ago. Kahiel thought that maybe he could have thanked him more with his kind words and that he believes his every word. Kahieli realised that there is no real strength from pointed finger as Kish advised. Kahieli lift his hand and unclasp them.

"grandpa you said that in open arms there is a miracle. Here is my hand wide and open, please let me see that miracle." Kahieli pleaded.

Later on Selah gasped and Saga groaned. Selah started to yell and call everyone.

"He is responding. Please come quickly!"

Kahieli was amazed that he froze in his spot. Fur and Ain run toward Saga's room.

The gang followed suit.

Urchin entered the room in relief. He almost hated himself for allowing Saga to receive the blows.

When Kahieli heared Saga's voice asking for water. He dropped in his knees and looked up. He opened up his arms and muttured a word of gratitude.

"O, Father Thank you. Your the God that defeated death. Thank you for this miracle. Amen."

Ole jolted up when she heared that Saga already awaken. She rushed toward the living area and found Saga munching some food as he watched the television.

"Your awake!" Ole beamed.

Saga just replied a short "yeah."

Ole sat beside Saga and embraced him.

"Welcome back." as she whispered in his ear.

Saga pat Ole's back to assure her that he is really alive. When Ole asked him how it was for him. Saga spoke of his dream about meeting his father Sage.

Kennan audibly inhaled when he woke up inside a cave. He looked around to see the walls full of drawings and ancient writings.

He tried to get up on his feet but felt it sting.

"You might have been drifting in the water and his something." The man spoke.

Kennan stared at the man and realised that his white and black hair complements his cute face.

"Ophir!" Kennan exclaimed in joy.

"Long time no see." Ophir replied.

"Wait I thought your dead. All the reports within the higher ups documents speak of you and Lehi being in one era since Lehi disappeared before Kish." Kennan analysed as he spoke.

"No. Those might be our household's stone. Remember the Elders putting on one after our wedding. Basing from how you looked surprised. I bet that there is something fishy within your council." Ophir replied.

Ophir heared how Hexel, Mem,Kish and the others died. Yet deep within his heart a relief beated when he heared that Urchin and Ain survived with the kids. Ophir was glad he took the courage to blow the whistle and be sacrificed to this unsowned land. Ophir can't help but hum after hearing his daughter's name. It took him century to find out his child's whereabouts and the answer is now given to him.
