Chapter 25
The Prophecy
“To start with I don’t know everything that there is in the prophecy I don’t know what the two things represent all I know that me and my other are the ones that are to bring about the prophecy so hear is what I know about the prophecy so please keep any questions to the end. There are two things that need to happen to kick off the prophecy. Though I am not sure that me telling you everything before you reach the right age will impact anything. This has never happened before so there; I mean this is new. Just remember that if you accept us to be one then you will not be alone doing these tasks and I will be your support. I will be there every step of the way and I will never leave you until we take our final forever breath.
To start there will be cracks in the Ceiba Tree which will not heal as the cracks grow deeper and new cracks will cause part of the tree to break and splinter, thus making the tree start to die and once it starts only the high branches have a chance to survive. But not all the cracks may be too deep, there is a chance that some of the branches won’t die but for the survival of the Ceiba tree some of the branches must perish to make way for new branches grow. But to grow new branches on a tree that is dying will mean the healing of the damaged branches as well as the removal of the old and withered branches, for every branch that is removed it will cause pain and suffering to the trunk which will in turn cause more cracks to appear. Life for the tree will not be easy and with each mend will come several more cracks and breaks. There is also something that you need to know, there is no way to mend the tree without breaking some of the branches that currently exist and if you break a main branch of the tree then there is no guarantee that you won’t damage the trunk permanently, causes irreparable damage so when you find the tree you must be strong and nurture where you can and be strong when you need to. But one thing that you need to remember at all times is doubt will sow more damage and with every drop of doubt think of it like poison, that you are poisoning the tree yourself so you must remain positive and strong. It is ok to feel sad, frustrated and upset but never doubt what you are trying to achieve. To do this will cause harm and that is something that can’t happen.
The second thing that will happen there is a rose called the Light Rose and once the light rose blooms after being forever dormant. You see there are two roses one light and one dark it has been centuries since the light rose has ever bloom it has budded a couple of times over the centuries but they all died before it ever had a chance to bloom. Once the light rose blooms it will release a scent that no other has ever smelt, this will make supers all supers take note. The next is the Dark Rose if the dark rose should bloom at the same time as the light rose blooms as well the supers will finally be bathed in both light and dark for the first time since the beginning of our supers’ time. The light and dark roses will signify that there is peace, harmony and justice within our realm. It is believed that once this happens that all supers will live together in harmony and there is will be no more in-fighting there will be no more quests for power everyone will live just as they should.
The peace of the realm means everything for the supers and that means that there needs to be a balance a way that good and bad are present but not at the expense of others. There was a saying back when the goddess created us ‘For there to be life any type of life there needs to be a balance. With good there must come evil. For light there must be dark and for luck there must be no luck at all.’ For centuries we have had one but not much of the other and there is constant darkness now and has been for a long time. So, it is time for light, it is time for balance to come and only a Phoenix has the power to bring balance. So, when I told you that for the prophecy to come to fruition then there is sacrifice and that means the end of something and that also means the end of you” Nix says with a sombre face.
“So do you have any questions?” Nix asks while looking at me.
Questions, seriously questions. What questions don’t I have. As I take a deep breath, hoping that everything that Nix has told was so sick joke but the problem is as soon as I get a look at her face, I know that Nix isn’t lying and I am back to breathing deep so that I don’t hyperventilate I am trying like crazy not to freak out but it is hard. I mean what else am I meant to do, oh that’s right I need to find the tree of life and fix a dying tree I am not tree doctor person then I need to make sure that I can find the light and dark roses and hope that they bloom but that all comes with the fact that everything will change and I have to sacrifice something to make all this happen so I mean ‘what the fck’
“You know that you said that out loud right” Nix says with a small giggle.
“Oh, fck me”
