The Black Mist Enchantress - Chapter 105

The plunge pool was green in colour with white-coloured pebbles surrounding the whole pathway to the place. Wildflowers and bushes have grown all over the area but still as the sunlight falls over these whites pebbles, then only the path becomes visible to the viewers.

” Wow, this place is a beauty hidden in the wild! I wonder why no one bothered to find such an astounding place here till now.”

Listening to Janet praising the whole place, master Rotrigues was feeling proud. He still remembered how their little princess had asked them to create a place exclusively for her, where the foundation of the buildings must be on four pillars only. When they enquired she was adamant on building the whole structure on four pillars, she replied beautifully, ” I need a place where I should feel secured. The four-pillar beams represent each one of you, so I shall feel secure even when you all are not with me someday.”

Hence, master Rotrigues had painstakingly designed this plot for her, here there was already a tower which was the private space for the enchantress. Although sorceress had tried numerous times to open the tower, she couldn’t open it. Finally, the great lord had asked no one to step on this property but once accidentally, little Lady Vilmon saw this place and she was able to enter the tower. Only she was able to enter the tower which was overshadowing the darkness and always the elders were curious about it.

Therefore, master Rotrigues made four big beam pillars representing the four brothers of the Lady Vilmon and after the work, it looked just like how she wanted it to be. The tower was surrounded by four big pillars. She even had named each pillar by their names, she used to call the pillars Rotri, Latho, Mian, Shaw. Thinking about those days, master Rotrigues had tears in his eyes as he still could remember the giggling sound of the young enthusiastic girl.

Only Emmy saw this emotional change but acted as nothing happened. As the group decided to proceed, master Rotrigues decided to lead the team as going down, the place became trickier. When looked from the top, this place may be built on an easy design but when you start walking through the plot, there are several turnings on the path which can make anyone feel much confused.

While walking, Rotrigus slowly explained the importance of this tower and why four pillars were built here.

” Our princess in her childhood was so innocent and lovable. Sometimes we felt that she considers us to be her real family as she referred to all of the four of us as brothers. See the three pillars on your front, the right one is named as Latho, towards its right is Mian. See this tall one, it is named under my name, Rotri and the last one is across the tower, so you won’t be able to see it until you stand in front of either Mian pillar or Latho pillar.”

After walking a short distance itself, except for Emmy, all others including Neshag and Rotrigues found it difficult to catch their breaths. While others were panting, Emmy felt so refreshed and anyone could see Emmy’s countenance now having a faint glow of the pink shade. Her skin was looking very healthy and there were not even a bit of those dark circles which Alex had seen in the morning.

Meanwhile, Alex and Jordan decided to check the surrounding whereas Mike and the Demar brothers were given tasks to decode the next clue. Alex wandered south and saw a small waterfall directly from the rock slits, he took a sip of the freshwater from the waterfall and instantly felt re-energised, so he took a bottle and filled it with water to give it to his friends and masters.

Drinking the water brought by Alex, the group members instantly felt the coolness of the water vitalising every nerve inside their body. Master Rotrigues explained this phenomenon as only positive energy was filled here for many years, so all items shall give us good energy. Suddenly Jordan who had gone north came running towards the group, Alex quickly gave Jordan the water as his face was as pale as a white sheet. The cold water made Jordan feel better to an extent but still, he was panicking.

” This place has been attacked before.”

A little while before only Rotrigues said that this place contains only positive energy as no one has stepped here but Jordan’s findings were in contrast to what he told.

They quickly walked to the place Jordan had gone before and looked at the spot in front of them, all were speechless.

” That is the pillar Shaw.”

Finishing his sentence, master Rotrigues looked at Emmy who was surprisingly calm after seeing the whole pillar was flattened to the ground. She walked over the destroyed pillar and touched the debris. Alex also followed her as he was scared that she might not be able to balance her emotions after seeing it.

Unexpectedly, Emmy just touched the debris and afterwards, dusted off her hands to walk back towards the group. Alex was stunned after seeing Emmy like this but was relieved to see she was okay. Master Rotrigues couldn’t understand what Emmy was thinking as her face was not at all readable. Also, no one saw how her gentle eyes turned to be cold and slowly green colour started to replace those black pupils.

” Now the second clue -no sun is powerful to warm the hall. What does it mean ?”

Talking about the second clue, Emmy successfully changed the attention of her friends from her.

” As far as I can see, the sunlight can reach all the pillars and the tower here but as it is talking about a hall, we must check out the tower first.”

“Juliet, how is it possible for us to check out the tower. Remember what our master told, only Lady Vilmon was able to open the tower.”

This time master Neshag and Rotrigues kept silent as they wanted to see whether Emmy had any connection with the enchantress, if she had any then her presence can open up the tower easily. This was just their theory, so they waited to tell others about this idea. Alex knew from the expressions of two masters that they were expecting that Emmy would be able to open the tower.

” Men, let us try to figure out the changes in the location first and you five, check out the premises of the tower. We will come there once we finish exploring here.”

Master Neshag gave the women group the task to check out the tower whereas the men will be responsible for checking out the whole area. However, both masters chased the youngsters away by asking them to clear the debris of the tower Shaw and hid behind to see what Emmy was up to.

Kiara and Emmy started to check the front door of the tower whereas Leona, Juliet and Janet were asked to check whether there were any other passages around the tower,

While Kiara was trying to figure out the door lock pattern, Emmy stood in front of the dried water fountain. She looked at its surroundings and saw this piece of land was utterly barren, lacking moisture to a great extent but the other places were filled with greeneries.

Sensing there was some abnormality here in the water fountain, Emmy just touched the water fountain and suddenly her vision got filled with darkness. Emmy knew that this might be a premonition, so she didn’t get panicked.

Using her hands, she tried to check for any obstacles in her way, then she saw a blurry image. Emmy was sure that the image was of a woman. She was crying her heart out and was sitting in a pool of blood.

Yes, a pool of blood… the blood flowed to the water fountain and the whole water turned red. The woman who was bawling out stood up suddenly and slowly washed with the water in the fountain.

” I will make you pay for it sister..”

Then those tearful eyes hatefully glanced at the water fountain. The anger in it was quickly replaced by sadness…

” This blood is ours… it was you who destroyed the fruit of our love. I know you will love me forever but this sin cannot be washed off from your hands… This fountain you made it here as a token of our love which you had no value of… So from now onwards, let this fountain be empty just like your empty love and sweet nothings. ”

Emmy opened her eyes to see the dried-up fountain again, as the vision was a bit blurry, she couldn’t identify the woman.. but that voice and the pain in it got deeply pierced into Emmy’s heart. Subconsciously, Emmy turned over and started to walk towards the front door of the tower.

With each step, Emmy was losing her emotional control and now her eyes blazing in green colour. By this time Kiara had cleared the shrubs and bushes from the front door and as she saw Emmy approaching towards her in an unusual manner, she stepped backwards. Then she saw the masters signalling her to move away from the front door.

Kiara quickly hid behind a column and she could see Emmy walking over the door and she was like walking dead, with a cold expression on her face and viciousness in her eyes. Kiara closed her eyes and even held her breath for a few seconds to not to catch the attention of the devilish Emmy.

A Few minutes later, Kiara felt a heavy hand over right shoulder and she screamed but no voice was heard outside and as she was hiding behind a column, masters could not also see her state.
