A Love In Dark Times

“The plants wither and from the rottenness new ones are reborn. “What do you mean, great master? -was something my master said to me. -Great master, we must extract that sacred metal, it is of vital importance to relocate those dwellings, the complicated thing is that it is near that forest where all those events have happened. They will be relocated in the land that we took from that monster that vomited money, they will be very happy because they are in the big city, besides giving them a good amount of gold to start again and compensate for the mishaps. The great master is attacking, several cities, several places, people are missing everywhere, it looks like a coordinated attack. send a few members to investigate, they are to act with caution. Sir, we are short of personnel, I have already assigned everyone we have, I only have the new Luis and the apprentice Luisa free. We shouldn't send Luisa anywhere, frankly I already regret not sacrificing her, she is a serious threat, I guess I got carriec away by Francisco's confrontation. Sir, if you wish, we can sacrifice her in secret. “No, maybe later, I can't act in haste, I can’t go on indulging in this plot that's forging in the back of my head, it seems to me that Francisco is leading it. -sir, what shall we do, if you want to kill Francisco? “No, you must stop thinking of killing everyone, he also has a part in my plans. sir, your plans are one and the prophecies seem to mark different destinies. “It seems so, that gives me the idea that I have to go to the oracle, she will guide me. -I went once and I swore not to go back, it seems absurd to me if she knows everything, why doesn't she use it for her ow benefit? And what's worse, because she can't say things clearly, she has to complicate everything with riddles and guesse “The future is like a fog, like a cloud that can be seen in the distance, that changes every second, what happens is that yo can't give it much importance, you must use what I tell you as a guide, an instrument, come on, I'll take you to where she The great master generated a portal that took them to the place where the oracle lived. Grandmaster, I have been here before, this is an island. “It's not, you're wrong, look, let's fly high. From above the other master could see that it was not an island, those houses and palm trees were on the shell of a big turtle floating in space. You see how varied the universe is. Ves, and me trying to fool a cousin who claims the earth is flat. Let's go to the Pythoness. They were wooden huts, or something like that, inside was her, she looked like a man, playing with a cat. -Hello, thank you very much for having us oracle. Greetings, I've been waiting for you. “What a guy, he already knew we were coming and why, he should have written a letter with the answers and left it at the entrance. Everything has a rhythm, first you lear to crawl and then to walk,” said the oracle. That's not quite true, a nephew learned to walk, he even ran, without crawling. Well, we had better get on with our business,” proposed the great master. “You are right great master, what happens is that you have to learn to unlearn, almost always what you suppose to be rigI is the opposite, a statement may not be true, even if no one opposes it. -He's already started with his riddles, what's incredible to me is what you live on, what you eat, I don't think it's roast turtle. “Man does not live by bread alone, and besides, the great master brought us a chest full of gold with which we will go to other worlds to exchange food, it’s silly how a metal is exchanged for something to eat. Dear oracle, please tell me what I have to do, I have to make some decisions and I don't know if 1 will succeed, there are some cruel ones and others too, I can risk everyone under my command for a personal whim,” explained the great maste -It's amazing the twists and turns of fate, you are so old in the world, almost like me, now you are debating between existing, what I will tell you will be simple and concentrated, “on the rottenness there are reborn offspring. -I could have spared myself the coming and the gold,” smiled the great master. and you would still be hesitant to come here, I'l tell you something, remember who you are, remember all that you have lived and all that you have achieved, no one should question you in your search for a definitive solution. -oh, I can use that, thank you, And the masters left through a portal, and an assistant to the oracle entered, giving him an announcement: -Sir, your next victim, I mean client, has arrived. -And the masters left through a doorway, and an assistant of the oracle came in, giving him an announcement: “Sir, your next victim, I mean client, has arrived. A female silhouette and a silhouette of a small boy entered. It's been a long time since I last saw you. Dear Mother, I was waiting for you, of course I liked your old name of Gaya better. -As you wish oracle, I need answers, I need to save the earth from the destruction of the humans. My lady, sometimes we think we are saved and when we die we are reborn in hell. 1 don’t understand you and I am very sage, Well, your decision may end badly, it should be something that minimises damage and at the same time is definitive. ~You're confusing me, oracle, maybe another trunk full of gold will help you to explain, better. “Its fine, it's simple, you should look for the weapons of antiquity, with which they destroyed the ancient continents. No, we agreed to hide them, if we use them, for sure there won't be anything left to fight for. No, it's for use, it would only be like the claws of the sloth bear, which only shows them to frighten its enemies. That would be very dangerous, although it may be necessary and with them we can finish with the hunters’ headquarter: the problem is that we would need a messiah, only with a chosen one we can open the vault where those terrible weapor are sealed. That's it, Lackey, please take them back to their forest. The attendant took them away, the oracle stood smoking a tobacco, and in a corner of his tent there was a shadow that told him: “Well done, our plan is working: Well done, our plan is going well, very soon all that we have thought during these centuries will be realised, we will be t masters of the earth, where we will raise our empire from the ashes. If you see that from the rottenness, worms sprout.
