Priestess Of The Land

"I heard about your goal..." Tria said looking at Feki, twirling around the sword in her hand into a ready-to-kill position.

"Y-you have? Then you know that I will give everyone the opportunity to ascend and be with their maker right? Isn't that good?" Feki said, flustered. His wounds were not healing and he had no source to get life from.

"No, not good. I think it's time for you to die, I've wasted enough time on you."

"No, you can't kill me! Wait, is it because of the priestesses? They could still be alive, what if I gave you the list of gods who got them from me? Huh? And yeah that's right! If those gods came looking for me and I was dead, you think you'd be safe?"

"I've finally found out why every person of the Eye clan I've conversed with are such ramblers, and blabbermouths that make no sense, they got it from you," Tria said with a serious face, ignoring his claims.

"No, please believe me, I'm serious, I even have a high God coming soon because they heard you have awoken, it's the first time a high god is coming down, they are over ten times stronger than I am, if I'm dead, they'll be coming for you!" he quickly said.

"They'll come for me because they'll want to avenge you? Or because I am the person they are interested in?"

"No-

"Enough! I've had enough!" Tria slashed his throat, and his body fell down the ground, as the waves washed down his blood. From the waves came the merpeople, who dragged his lifeless body in the water, and ripping his body apart.

The skies clear, and the weather went back to normal, as the sun peeked out over the land once more.

Chukah was laying down not far away from where Tria was, he waved at her as she made her way over.

"That was so exhausting," she said before sitting next to Chukah, looking at the water waves.

"I know, but now you can live in peace for a while, but Tria, if what he was saying is true, then you are still not safe," Chukah said with concern.

"If what he said is true, then I better go back home soon and try to lead a normal life. My cultivation and the fact that I am not poor, which not typical for a priestess should be enough cover for now."

"Don't forget about your father-

"Not my father, remember that Chukah, I have no mother or father, you, Crei, uncle Aten, and the others are my only family," she said.

"Hmm," he said.

"Besides, whatever they are planning back in the Sun Land, is but child's play, Seti and the others will be able to take care of it."

Brother and sister sat on the sand and watched the sun set over the horizon as if the earlier events have never happened, and just like after a storm, came the calm.

Meanwhile, back at the inn, Hepri was just snoring in his bed, while Tesh had been sitting down at the window all along, looking at everything that was occurring.

As a real goddess, she was able to see from that far away, and after observing these events, she was not happy.

She realized that Tria was a girl all along, and not only that she was a high priestess, a being that has not appeared since the ancient priestesses died. Not only that, but it also seemed that she had already occupied the man's heart she had come for, it was no wonder that he didn't spare her even a glance. If that was the case, then...

'The prophecy was true.'

White mist surrounded her, and just like that, she disappeared into thin air.
