No right to judge us

Guys. This is a FF don't look to deep into the things in it, just enjoy. If you look for realistic and accurate things like building, breeding and production then read the original. The people who wrote it get payed for it. I on the other hand just do it for setting up the story. Please be understanding.

I was walking through the covered in fog forest, I don't know why but it felt so peaceful and calming that I felt like I never wanted to leave this place.

I was sure that I'm still on Bear Island but didn't know exactly where except the fact that it was the location further from the keep, deep within the forest.

I could see the animals flocking to me feeling the emotion generated from them, the clear and unbounded... happiness?

They walked beside me, while I just smiled stopping from time to time to touch the wet and cold bark of the innumerable thees that were all around me, I could clearly perceive the joy in them all.

I felt a warm touch on my bare feet and looked down to see a small bear cub brushed over my leg before he stood on his two legs and was clawing at my pants wanting and trying to climb up while looking hilariously funny.

"Haha you're a naughty one aren't you?" I said and picked it up closer to my face just to get a better look at him.

He was a small black bear cub different from the rest of the bears that were following me. I felt his tongue on my nose when he licked me and roared, the sound of his "ferocious" roar was so cute that it made me carefree laugh again.

I looked around and walked freely without any direction or aim, the falcons over the crowns of trees happily circled around us, the smaller animals climbed the trees and watched me while mischievously playing with each other...

Pure, blissful harmony was the words that came to my mind to describe the picture that I saw before me.

The moist forest ground under my bare feet connected me to the nature, calming every fiber of my being.

I don't know how long it lasted but and to be truthful I didn't even care and just wanted it to continue for all eternity... Unfortunately it would not...

The bigger animals around me started to tense up, looked in the same direction and roared threateningly like they wanted to scare something off, the clouds got darker and an ominous feeling came over me.

I didn't understand what was going on but even I knew it wasn't anything good.

Looking around I didn't see any indication that something was wrong, but the darkness and the chaotic emotions of the nature and animals kept me from relaxing.

I heard multiple caws over my head and looked up, but the next moment I wished I wouldn't. The falcons that were previously so joyous were now trying to block the way of a large flock of ravens but seeing the amount of the black birds I felt the distress and helplessness in my guardians.

"Please come back..." I thought and concentrated on them still seeing them being almost overwhelmed by the ravens, and the next moment they did as I asked them to.

I saw and felt the biggest one of them all landing on my shoulder, his beak covered in blood, his claws with black, bloody feathers attached to them as the proof of his valiant battle.

I knew he was really savage, but to me he gave off the feeling like he was my long friend or even a brother... He snuggled to my face to show his affection making the young bear cub in my hands dissatisfied and whining at him.

I watched the black, ugly birds occupy the trees surrounding us, the animals created a circle around me and prepared for a fight, even the trees that the ravens landed upon transmitted their unwillingness to accommodate the new guests on them.

"You shouldn't exist!" I heard the bigger of the birds say with human voice, I felt the nature here reject him slightly, the third eye on his forehead confirmed to me his identity.

"Three-Eyed Raven..." I said with more melodious voice than normally.

"You shouldn't exist!!" It repeated again louder and with a screeching voice.

"I exist as the trees exist... I exist as the animals exist... I exist as nature exists... It's not a place for you to decide that greenseer..." I don't know where that came from but it just felt natural to say it.

"Unfortunately for you... In this world... It is..." He didn't even wait until I understood what he meant, he spread his wings and and cawed loudly.

The next moment I felt enormous amount of pain in my head. It felt like my soul would shatter at any moment...

The animals around me felt it too to some extent and became restless. They roared at him frantically trying to cover every single space between him and me, even the cub that was previously in my arms became furious.

I dropped to my knees dropping the cub out of my arms and just clutched my head as hard as I could trying to mitigate the pain and shouted to the sky.

I never experienced anything like that in my life, this one or the one before it...

And then in an instant it all stopped like with a touch of a magical wand... and I heard another voice getting closer to us sounding like the nature speaking itself...

The words were unfamiliar to me, but I knew the meaning of everything the voice said.

"Begone from our domain!" The voice sounded childishly but with the force of the whole forest behind it.

The ravens on the trees immediately scattered away, the sky came back to normal and there was just me, the voice and the Three-Eyed Raven.

"You can't protect this child forever!" He sounded angry and a bit desperate.

"Traitors have no right to judge us..." The voice spoke again and when it did the calmness and relief washed over me.

When I looked again the thing I saw was reluctance in the Three-Eyed Raven eyes and just like that he turned around and flew away.

I looked at the direction of the previous speaker, only to find a blurry figure of a person, a bit smaller than an adult, like... a child...

The figure came closer to me and placed its blurry hand on my head sniffing out the last nexus of pain and then it's face came closer to my face.

"Welcome brother..." It said and dissipated.
