 "...I have an undone task to perform."

They all bowed in comprehension as I vanished from their midst.

     Having remembered her past, she remembered the meetings she had with Phelizar and her servants against Demona before leaving to the human world as the child a couple have been patiently yearning for. She wasn't sent to be a blessing but a curse. 

    How? These couple vowed their allegiance to the Devil just for the sake of having a child. So Desdemona, unknown to them, was sent to be a punishment if they ever broke the agreement in the slightest way which was exactly what happened. The Devil granted their request on the condition that they rededicate the child back to him once she was born so as not to loose Desdemona's soul to the light. 

        She left to see who it was that took her gem in the cave left to her by her father. She had sensed that something was wrong. That was when she encountered Pearl and tied her to a tree. She needed to know who dared to send a helpless girl on such a dangerous task. The girl had a sense of pure innocence in her blood which made Desdemona thirst for it because of a reason. 

   But unfortunately and shockingly, she attacked her with the power of the Heavens. This was impossible, especially in this world. If she could have access to such power she must be an important and we'll chosen pawn for the unknown player.

She vanished back into the hall of darkness d

after the attack. Worry and curiosity was evident on her face. Persephone noticed this and asked, bowing with respect;

"Your Majesty."

Desdemona threw a dangerous gaze at her. Persephone lifted her eyes to meet hers and immediately looked away when she was welcomed by a deadly look. Desdemona's beautiful fair skin began darkning like her blood had turned black and was rushing profusely. She began shivering, hoping she was making the right decision calling her majesty. 

"Speak." She commanded.

"I know what bothers thee, your majesty." 

Her voice quivering.

Huffing, she said;

"And how would you know what bothers me?"

"Your majesty, it is because she has been a threat to our world since her arrival."

She hoped her words would calm her majesty down.

"Go on" , was all she said, leaving no trace of how curious and surprised she was.

" Before your departure, you commanded me to keep everything in order and follow sir Demona." She paused for a moment and continued.

" I don't know what he's planning but what I know is that his plan has something to do with a man called Desmond."

"Desmond?" She asked in deep perplexion.

"And what does my gem have to do with all this? He knows the trouble that awaits anyone who crosses paths with me so why would he still dare to indirectly take it?" She said more to herself with all authority

" Because...",she hesitated.

"Speak woman." Desdemona attacked.

"Because...she...she is the one destined to awaken he who is to destroy us all."

Desdemona didn't like anything and anyone that was a threat to her.This wasn't making any sense. Why would Demona use a woman destined to awaken the light that would destroy darkness which included himself.

"You may rise." She instructed and she obeyed. 

    As she rose, Desdemona's expression searched for answers. Then she spoke;

"Gather round. I need the Sana."
