Destiny of a Thousand Stories

Eren and Laras are bobbing in a greenish whirlpool that is somewhere. Continuing to carry the two unconscious bodies fell to the bottom of the deepest waters. The light that touches the surface of the waters to the bottom where the two bodies are bobbing basically.

The bottom of the waters that display inhumane scenery at every angle. Many human bodies are entangled by plants that resemble marine algae, there are also human bodies that are tied to chains that look rusty, or mossy rope that seems to float unconscious. The bodies were tossed along following the very calm ripples of water.

Every eye-view of the bodies leaves a void. Some of them have no eyeballs at all. There are only eye sockets that look so heartbreaking. Like a part of his soul had been forcefully pulled out of those bodies.

The other body displayed despair that ended in submission. I looked into my eyes with a lethargic expression. The other body seemed not to believe his vision. All expressions do not seem so wearing as to continue to be looked at. Like the fields of inhumane slaughter, everything in the water left a silence with a slow hum of the ripples of water that blew the wind on the surface of the waters.

Both bodies fell to the bottom. The really basic. The bottom of the greenish waters now completely calm after two foreign bodies reach the bottom.

While behind the stone door of the dark valley called the gray valley, Aksara and Zara did what they could to try to reopen the door of the valley. Especially when they realized there was a human body that had just bounced behind the stone door.

"We're not going to make it!"

"Not if we keep wasting time!"

Zara ignored the attitude Aksara showed her. The young man chose to fly away from the door at high speed. And with the same speed, Aksara shot out as fast as Zara's attack that fused with the wind. Banging on the stone door at a speed that did not count at all. The one time action of the Aksara made the entire valley shake. It toppled several trees and opened a waterway back into the side of the valley.

"What are you doing, you idiot!" shouted Zara who was astonished by the unexpected conduct of the Scriptures.

Aksara rubbed his dirty cheeks after clashing with the rigors of the stone door he faced.

"Just use the ability without the brain!" answer Aksara chuckles.

"Basic!" lamented Zara who again saw the relaxed manner of Aksara after acting so spontaneously.

"Just wait!" answer Aksara.

He looked towards the stone door and noticed one or two puffs of smoke resembling incense smoke coming out from between the doors.

"What are you thinking!"

Zara retracted the attack she wanted to launch on the door slit intended to open the valley door. But the valley door he wanted to open was the forbidden stone door. The stone door that had been sealed and had lost the soul of its guard. The door that eventually became known as the Cursed Valley Door.

"If you don't remember wrong, there's no rainbow lake valley!"

Nelangsa. He chose to sit glued to the plains of the valley by facing towards the stone door. One leg was stretched out, and the other he bent for the back of his chin. His eyes stared at him unusually.

"Want to?" Zara looked at Aksara in surprise.

"You were his guard, weren't you?" Aksara continued to look at the stone door. "Coming over is the rainbow valley. The valley you guarded before the valley disappeared from your guard..." Aksara.

"So you mean??" Zara approached Aksara with all the possibilities she had thought of.

"Yes!" answer Aksara. "Use your right as the guardian of the valley to open the stone door?!"

Aksara. Facing towards the sky above it that looks so gloomy. The clouds were moving and the sky was gray. Around them, white, black, and gray took over.

"That book, it's still with you isn't it?!" ask Aksara again.

For a moment Zara was silent for quite a while. He pulled out a book that was glowing so strongly that it was so close to the stone door before him. Zara reinserted the book into the dimensions of her grasp. Looked at with disbelief.

"Think of another way?"

Zara shook her head slowly. "On what basis?"

"There is a human figure who should not be in the valley of death." replied Aksara. "You know for yourself how much trouble there is on the side of the valley of death when man with his body and soul is swayed on the journey of the valley..."

"Isn't taking over the valley of the rainbow lake, tantamount to throwing them into the valley again?!"

Zara is back.

"Didn't he ever say, Laras and himself have been bouncing on the valley for the second time.. If for the third time, the fate of their souls would be shattered!"

"The tribulation Valley is the edgeless valley that ushers each of the most damned souls in the universe to serve their punishment. Many souls are destroyed once entering the edge of the valley, and it is not uncommon for there to never return at all" Aksara said.

"Taking over the valley is tantamount to giving destruction to the soul and making their figure into ashes that are fused with water, air, or wind..."

"So tragic is the fate that they may have to live with." replied Aksara by not ignoring Zara's anxiety.

"After everything we've been through, can I make a decision that leaves them on the verge of perdition?!"

"You just have to believe them." Aksara raises her hand. It was as if he was reaching for the light that began to dim around the valley.

"We don't have much time."

The script pointed towards the stone door that suddenly seized his attention. The stone door did not escape the disappearance of all colors in the valley. Making a gap on the stone door close slowly after slowly. Closing the entrance access and make it fade by looking at merging with the side of the valley behind it.

Looking at the scene that might destroy the side of the valley, Zara took off the black-covered old book with the black curtain emblem covered from the dimension of her grasp. Closer the book to the stone door in front of him. Letting the power from within the book and the stone door synergize with each other.

"Wheel... Eren's... Sorry!"

As the sentence ended, the care of the valley turned to Zara's hands. The stone door that had been half-blended with the cliff of the valley behind it, opened again. Leave a tinge of light that dazzles the eyes. Muffle all colors in a dark valley called gray valley. Making it disappear from the sight of Zara or Aksara who are now stunned by the other scenery presented before them.

The expanse of the river is solid black with a burst of greenish-colored smoke bubbles filling some sides of the valley. Some of the remaining barren land with soil color similar to the color of instant milk coffee. There was no gap of life at all in that valley. There was not a soul they could find. Very different from the last place they saw.

From a distance, an old wooden boat sailed near the direction they stood in bewilderment. A wooden boat with a worn-out sail illuminated by a bluish-flame lantern. The flashing flame light was like a huge firefly light.

Old wooden boat docked. Hit the edge of the land slightly higher. Beside it was created a small pier made of wood. Showing an unusual sight as Zara and Aksara try to step foot into the wooden dock.

From above the surface of the water, there were so many souls floating around without being able to pass through the murky surface of the lake water. Souls were writhing and screaming full of pain, roaring cries and hatred, endless anger. All of that was muffled by the waves of the surface of the water that seemed so calm, but gave horror to the souls trapped inside.

At first glance, there are also some human bodies that float and seem to be bound to something from the bottom of the lake. The human body with blank eyes that made water ripples under his feet both sounded so bitter. The eruption of greenish-colored smoke bubbles from the water was so cloudy, adding to the bad first impression of Zara and the characters of the valley that they are now peeping on.

The figure they hoped could be stranded around the valley, not seen at all. Even just a shadow, nothing flashed at all.

While in the old wooden boat before them, a body curled up and fell asleep in the dark valley that trapped him.

"Rein?!" first word Aksara.
