Chapter 3

There are four elemental vision in this world. The Water, Fire, Wind and the Earth. A vision is an elemental ability that is given to a new born child yet only to those who are chosen by the Gods.

It is common for a man to be chosen but it is not for women. That is why the gap between a man and a women worsened. Women are seen as either a slave or a man's toy because of the said fact the women aren't blessed ans are merely born to serve a man, ridiculous isn't?

In very day, a woman is harass, assault and rape by a man. And my mother is one of them, despite having a vision, my mom was treated that way because she didn't came from a noble clan. She was a peasant, and was poorly abandoned in an orphanage.

After gaving birth to me and knowing that I was chosen to have a wind vision, my mother took me away from this cruel world and raised me until I turned fifteen.

My eyes meandered around my table. The ever clean and delicate Lad Lily outside is opposite inside. She was a mess, she spent all her free time doing a search, studying and investigating.

My lips formed into a smile. The Palace who I thought would help me with my search have long forgotten their promise.

Shaking my head, I continue writing the slightest clue I could ever found.

In this lifetime, happiness will only last after a moment. I was born in the mainland of Uno and I live my very first fifteen years in the boarder between Uno and the biggest continent--- The Grevineece.

It was in an underground tunnel, my mother built a small yet peaceful home she could with her bare hands. I then discovered I was an immortal when I turned 6. In that age I could already understand what I am reading and what I am doing.

I look at the palm of my hands. Until now, 5000 years have passed. I still couldn't understand my vision. My wind.

I can do the most simpliest things yet I sometimes surprise myself.

During my first 1000 years, I had many friends--- female friends and I was at an orphanage but like me they are not chosen so they naturally die. Leaving only myself.

How cruel is it, I sometimes questioned why I was chosen when I know I am going to be left behind.

But this vision have save me a lot. Help me and guide me.

During my 3000 years I disguised myself into a man, shaved my white hair wears a typical man's clothing and find a job, I am dish washer in a travern. I was happy, atleast I have a place to stay but like the book said everything is temporary.

I was prisoned for another 1000 years. That is when I realized how cruel this world is, living in a cell with no light can be seen is a struggle yet with my vision I manage to survived.

A scream walk me up from a deep slumber. A voice can be heard afterwards.

"Florence! Florence! Help! My sister is not breathing! Someone help me!"

The small light I see is the only sign to say it is morning already and sometimes we get breakfast but most of the team, they would starved us to death.

My eyes finds its wat to a cell, I could see the hands of woman shaking the cell with all her might.

Why didn't they kill us? Its because every 4 months. Guards, I belive would take a look on each of us and if you are chosen by them they will sold you to merchants and those merchants will either kill you, make you as their slaves and their sex slaves. Because of my appearance, thin as a bone, shaved hair and I do not met their bloody standard.

"Shut up! Shut up!" The guards voice echoed before a consecutive loud bang silence the lady.

My eyes wide open, they killed her.... tremble in fear for the third time, a tear rolled from my eyes. My eyes witness how the guard took its pistol and aimed it at the cell infront of mine. I shut my eyes, silently sobbing. They are the ones deserves to die!

Men should die!

Weeks passed. I made an escape plan and the rest is history.

"My lady, are you awake yet?"

 My eyes open immediately, I moaned trying to cover my eyes from the day light coming from outside. Did I forgot to close the blinds of the window?I slowly got up from bed and went to cover the windows.

 "I am awake, Erin." I exclaimed. I tied my hair and went to wash my face with cold water intending to clear my mind. 

"Very well, should I pack your clothes now, my lady? Asked Erin again. I froze. My mission. Erin is the only one who new what is my mission and today is the first day of it. I sigh, deep in my heart I feel very uncertain.

I do not know if I should be glad that this mission is given to me or I should be terrified knowing that my mission is someone from the highest. I admit, I feared I am not comparable from anyone in the highest yet I fret not because I believe I am capable to do this mission and I shall succeed.

 "The Grevineece are not ordinary beings, Lady Doris. None of them are mortal I am afraid." My lips trembled as I speak.The entire world knows of the Grevineece, they are the God alive. Lady Doris took a glance on her cat. 

 "I am aware, Lady Lily. But this is your only chance. Your mother could be serving the Grevineece." 

Chest pumping hard, I bit my lower lip. My hands started to moist, I couldn't move. 

"What...what made you think that my mother is serving... them?" I shuddered.

 Lady Doris green eyes met mine. She was silent for a few seconds. I stare at her as she put the cat on her table. She move closer to me, fingers now on my hair, slowly combing it.

 "Your mother is one of the chosen, yes?"

 "Yes."

 "Women who were chosen are serving the Grevineece. I found out this information from my friends who are wife of some of the powerful men in town." She smile. "Sir Iann of Flaberton is giving reward to those who can point out who killed his daughter. He has the earth vision and came from a noble clan who's business is booming everywhere. I have already discussed this to other member and we are confident that you can do this mission well, after all you never failed the Palace."

 "Did you what ever mean that a Grevineece has killed his daughter?"

 "Yes. Certainly. Barron Grevineece has a mistress and this mistress is the daughter of Iann. We do not know more information but as we see, the only reason he killed her is because the mistress new something she shouldn't know. Maybe a secret of the Grevineece."

 "Barron Grevineece is the owner of the Hunter Winery. One of the biggest Winery in the World yet he is the lesser threat among the Grevineece as he was just a half, he was a child of a bastard."

 "His vision?"

 "Wind." she continued,  "He is a drunkard, not worthy to be part of the Grevineece clan. You can easily manipulate this bastard, you can fish whatever information from him. Benefits, darling. Many benefits are waiting for us."

"I understand but I feared this will not be an easy task and will take me a lot of weeks or so to be-- accomplished Lady Doris." My eyes bore down at her. She slightly raise a brow and then revealed a knowing smile.

"There's no such mission you cannot accomplished Lady Lily. The Palce will give you 1 month and a half and after that you'll be back with a success plaster on your face.

"You are the pride of the Palace, Lily. You belong here. You belong to us."
