Sariel of Mount Ilyr

Kabanata 1. I carry 2 kinds of memories. The first kind belongs to my future. The second kind holds me and the man who never appears in that first memory. But if I'm being honest, this is still my first life. I know that much. Those memories are only memories handed to me by something above. So I have two possible futures. It can be the first one or the second. Still, I was never much of an obedient child. I can make a third path for myself. I'm ready to lay down my own road and walk ahead. "Young Miss, the family head is asking for you." Sinulyapan ko ang babaeng nakatayo sa ibaba ng puno. Nananatili siyang nakayuko na para bang ang kaharap niya ay ang mismong punong nasa tapat niya. Tsk. Ang sagabal. Lumundag ako pababa at saka naglakad paloob ng mansion. Ramdam kong sumunod naman ang katulong sa likod ko. Pagkapasok ko sa mansion, dumiretso ako sa office ni Grandpa Dorian. Hindi na ako kumatok at basta na lang akong pumasok. "What is it that you need from me?" malamig kong tanong sa kaniya. Alam ko na ang mangyayari kaya alam ko rin ang gusto niya. Pormalidad lang ito kaya ako nagtanong. Alam kong ipinatawag niya ako para balaan na huwag akong lalabas at huwag na huwag akong bababa ng Mount Ilyr. "There's an organization causing trouble for nearly a week. My sources said they intend to climb Mount Ilyr and strike us. Don't leave the house from this moment on. They don't want us dead, they want us as puppets to use. Do what I tell you," mariing sabi ni Grandpa Dorian.
