Seven Lights

Knock, Knock

" Come in." a voice full of nobility said after hearing the knock on the door. Receiving the confirmation from his master, the man entered and kneel before the man with a voice of nobility

" Your Highness the Council of Elders are already in their respective places and all preparations are ready" The man that kneeled didn't stand up after reporting but waited for his Highness to permit him to go.

" Thank you, Joseph." said the man " Let's go, the elders are already waiting" he added then turned around to Joseph. " Yes, Your Highness" said Joseph.

While they are walking in the corridor, the man suddenly talked. "Joseph, I'm sorry that you have to do this, I know we will meet again. Until then, wait for me I want you to be the one giving me advice when that time happens." when hearing the words of the man, Joseph turned solemn but he immediately suppress his emotions and replied. " I will, my friend" The man smiled to his reply while remembering the events of the past.

They are walking for 10 minutes until they reach a door at the end of the hallway. The door was made of wood,but even when it is made of wood it seems to be sturdy that it needs ten body builders to open it. The door has a design of a very beautiful rose, but when you look closer at it, it was a rose man from small runes that are very powerful. As they entered the room they were greeted by a beautiful woman whose beauty seems to be a calm weather and it feels that the wind is touching you gently while watching the river flow and colorful petals fall.

"My king!" she hugged the king while tears fall in her charming eyes hiding the despair behind it. "My Queen, we have to do this. This is the only way to pay for our sins, we played something that we should not and now we have to face our doom to save every being" the kin said while gently rubbing his hand at the silky hair of the woman in his embrace.

After a while they separated and the king asked his subordinates " How are the preparations?"

"Your Highness, the elders are already inside the sealing formations and all the people of our kingdom entered the preservation palace, we are just waiting for His Highness and the Queen to enter the Spirit and Soul Chamber to start the process."

The king nodded and entered the Spirit and Soul Chamber hand in hand with his wife. Having entered the chamber, the door suddenly closed and no one can enter or exit the chamber. "My King, is there no other way for this" The Queen said as she looked into the eyes of the king solemnly. " There's none, we already thought of different ways but this is the only feasible solution that we can make at our current situation" the king replied with a voice full of sadness with a slight regret. "My Queen don't lose hope, we only needed time" he added. " Promise me! Promise me that what ever happens we will meet" the Queen said the words with longing and resoluteness wiping the tears in her eyes.

The king looked in her eyes full of love and bravery as if he can see the future " I promise, the Seven Lights of Life will be the witness of our meeting. I love you Lor…."

" Arthur we will be late for our next class if yo.. eh? Bro, your crying?" Peter seeing his friend eyes full of tears stop his urging and asked. Hearing the question of Peter, Arthur touch his eyes and felt the liquid flowing from it wondering " Eh? Why is there a liquid flowing out from my eyes? Strange." said Arthur while wiping the tears. " Hahaha strange indeed. I told you stop watching that tragic movie but you still insisted. Look at you even in your dreams it hunts you." Peter laughs at his friend for his strange behavior.

[ Strange, it seems like I forgot something. Well maybe its about that movie] Arthur thought about it but immediately put it away as it seems not important.

" Let's go. Today we will be having our class about Blues" said Peter then walk toward the school building. Arthur look at the sky and sigh then followed Peter.
