Episode 26: Alphabet

Pov: Saki Fidelong

Travel is like an alphabet in a book of readings.

Always bound by the meaning to be conveyed.

Everything is starting to light up over this meeting. If Elvy had not asked Azazil and Namus in this discussion, I might not have known until now. Destiny is unique. We who have a dark and gloomy past still have hope in the future.

Arafis was a former murderer and we were former prostitutes. Two despicable works in the eyes of men. But now we are guardians of those in need. Not always what we like is best for us, and what we hate is despicable for us. The quotation from Namus delivered by Arafis has a point as well.

Like an alphabet that is still in disarray, we do not know the meaning to be meant. Sometimes we need to arrange so neatly and arranged so that we know the purpose and purpose of the compiler. So that is destiny, we do not know the way of destiny except the owner of the universe itself who gives instructions like an alphabet.

Back to the previous case. For Azazil, man is a mistake that will be repeated again. But to the Light, what he fears is only a presumption. The Light must have its own consideration. And it has been answered already through the meeting of the three of us in this special carriage.

The Light planned everything perfectly. All this time we see everything according to what we see. However, he wanted to give something as important as an alphabet. A valuable lesson about trusting each other. Trusting something different to find an equation that brings us all closer together.

The feud between Azazil and the Light in criticizing the opinion of the Light gives an idea of the importance of a belief. The dispute between the two becomes an example if malice can eliminate the logic that Azazil has. Fear eliminates self-confidence and peace of mind. When that happens, it is very difficult for light to enter the heart.

Before long Elvy asked me with a curiosity that was still passionate like the speed of a black train, he asked me and Arafis about the figure of Namus. He was curious about the leader of the guards who gave us a chance.

"So, you were invited directly by Namus?" Elvy asked in astonishment.

"Perhaps, because I still don't believe I was invited by Namus the leader." Answer Arafis.

"Arafis, if your duty to deliver a message to the chosen ones means that we have been planned to meet by Him?" My toot.

"Nothing is a coincidence. All of them are already part of a series of destinies that run its course, Saki."

"Including this meeting Ohba?"

"One of them, yes."

"It's fascinating Arafis. What about Azazil? Has he also planned to reject order?"

"That's one of them, too. According to old man Khidr, Azazil will be a real example for all beings. He wants to teach us all that light and darkness need to exist in order for the universe to work as it should."

"You mean balance?"

"Right, that balance needs Saki."

The journey that the Light has shown is like an alphabet in a reading book. Always bound by the meaning to be conveyed. No one knows but to read it and understand its contents carefully. Our conversation is over, and now my goal is starting to arrive. Want to talk longer, but the task must be completed first.

Remember I would have Khidr's uncle's message about the first alphabetic philosophy. Aleph is the first letter written and spoken in history. Alef begins but is sometimes used to end writing. Alef represents the divine to keep approaching the light between the darkness.

We'll meet on another occasion. Like the letter alef that will meet other letters. I promise we'll all meet. The black train began to slow down at the next station. Namus sent me to provide sustenance to the future man in the tree of life. Their fate will be directed according to the will of the Light.

Arafis, I'm leaving first. And Elvy, we're going to continue our conversation. But earlier, I wanted to see Arafis flapping his wings for the last time. Because that reminds me of the first time I met you. The wings of the universe's legacy. The wing that is the sign of a messenger of light. A wing that provides protection for all beings who take refuge in the shade of true light from dark evil and ignorance.
