The coronation and prophesy.

1434 Words
( IN TRAIL ) Fable dressed the beaded curtains to the left and walked into the cold hall of Taru's shrine. He heard familiar voices echo as he made his way down the hall, but as he got closer, the voices diminished. Fable soon pushed the thatched door open and exposed himself to his destination. There was Taru, a slender, tall old man with white long beards that reached his waistline. Taru sat on his normal spot, which was a rocky slab with white gems laced inside it. The slab was placed at a high podium with seven steps below it. In front of the steps laid a circular pool which colored blue. There were floating rocks inside the pool, and a spiritual animal known to Trailians as a grail. There was another man seated below the stairs, clenching a bail of quarys, enough to get twenty trailians passed out. ****************** Fable took a seat near the half drunk man, " Father, you're here. " Ankti Khan gulped what was left of his booze and dropped the bail on the rocky floor. " Of course I am. You're going to be supreme ruler soon, I want to hear what lays in your future. " Fable had to hide the fact that he harbored germane worries of his new standing. Although he had prepared his whole life to rule his kingdom, he was still distressed and tensed. And it was all because of the All Seeing Eye. Trail had so many magical and powerful relics and spells, but the most powerful of all was the all seeing eye. The potency of the all seeing eye stretched pass various worlds and domain. The all seeing eye had the ability to do everything known to man. Mindcontrol, telepathy, telekinesis, it was able to get information about anything that existed in the past, present or future. With the All seeing eye, any man could be a god. The all seeing eye was a diamond shaped crystal that is placed at the center of the forehead. It could he hidden, or exposed, depending on the beholder. The all seeing eye is used only by past kings. Weighing heavily on his shoulder, Fable had questioned himself how he could mount the power of the all seeing eye with pride and must. *************** " The all seeing eye, " Fable begun to speak, " Since its so powerful why don't we just let our people know of its existence? " " Son, that power is too large to be let out. Secrecy, sometimes is a wise and devised tool. Let there be a balance. " Fable stared at his father with tears struggling to bust out his eyes. The short speech Ankti Khan gave him had caused him to emotionally see the man for who he genuinely thought he was, A GOOD KING. " I understand father. " He rested his right hand on Ankti khan's shoulder, " I may be becoming king today, but my greatest joy is to have you rule beside me__ Taru cleared his throat, disrupting and stopping the words from Fable's mouth. Fable shot him an irritated glare, " You could have at least let me finish. " " Sorry my lord, but you came here for a prophesy, that you shall get. Besides, your people are already awaiting their king. " Fable tightened and steadied his look, " Continue. " He firmly said. " Yes your sovereign. " Taru's eyes turned completely white as he began, " I see something in your future, young son of Ankti Khan Trail. I see a formation so clear as the waters in astreli bails. " " Do reveal, I command you. " Fable beckoned, pushing back the tension that hinted into him. " I see a strong divergent force, a definite distinct happenings that is varied with an unidentified source. " Fable felt his entire body mute. His eyes were steady with a freezing, yet stoic stance. But he wouldn't conclude yet, he would wait for Taru to finish the prophesy. But when Taru's eyes returned back to normal, Fable knew he was done. He couldn't believe it. " What is the meaning of this? " Fable's voice was consumed with disbelief and anger. " You told him a little something and a whole lot of nothing! " Ankti Khan replied, also flabbergasted. " I understand you Khan that you do not understand, " Taru could call Khan by his name because of their strong bond. He rolled his eyes over to Fable and squinted it. " But you my lord, you are far too wise. " Fable slowly went to his feet. His mind was swerving in a circular motion that made him begin to have a headache. " So what you are saying Taru is that there is an unidentified change in my future. " Taru nodded. That was it, Fable went nuts. Without hesitating, he dashed out the window, diving deep into the large body of water below, before anyone could stop him. ****************** Fable had already reached the bottom, he was sitting underneath. His legs were crossed, so were his arms as his eyes stung open, staring at something and nothing at the same time. He remained still in the position until his friend Santi came to him and gestured for them to vacate the water. Fable agreed. " How do you know where I was? " Fable asked as they both sat on dry soil. " I've known you for years my friend, when your emotions overwhelm you, you go under the water... it helps you think. Plus, your father told me you jumped from the window. " Santi said. " Santi, there's a change in my future, you know I hate change. " The sign of desperation told heavily in his voice. " Is that why you are planning to miss your coronation? The entire kingdom is waiting for you. " " I don't like change... and Ayanna said __ santi laughed. " I know you are not letting Ayanna's words get to you, she's desperate for you, she will say anything. And as for the change, let me ask you one question. " " Go on. " " For all the twenty six sunsets you've been able to see, was there a time when things stayed the same? The trees grew and withered, animals died and were reborn, wars came and gone, but we are still here and you are still the same. " Fable arched his brows accepting the clarity that came, " You asked a question and provided an answer my friend. " " If you could survive the celestial goddess, then no change can change you. " Fable jumped to his feet, " Santi my friend, we would go underwater discovery together! as deep as the underworld gets! " Santi chuckled, " I want something else. " " Make it quick, lest I change my mind. " " I want denizia. I know it's against the mate rule, but I want to have her. " Fable narrowed his eyes, " Who is she? " " One of your Orelis. I guess they're so much, you can't keep track. " Fable smiled. It wasn't like the orelis were much of a deal to him anyway, he was willing to spare. " Then its done. Denzilia__ " Denizia, " Santi corrected, " You don't even know their names. " " She's yours. " Fable began to walk away, " Hurry along behind me my friend, my coronation awaits. " ************************ The hall went completely silent as Ankti Khan held the crown up high, ready to place it on Fable's head. Unbeknownst to the rest of the crowd, the all seeing eye would also be worn as soon as the crown touches his head. " Fable Norma Trail, " Ankti Khan began, " You have done me and this kingdom well, you have shown us how ready and prepared you are to be a king. Take the crown of Trail from me, and welcome our civilization into a new regime. " The crown slowly travelled through the air and was placed on Fable's head. But some other thing happened. As soon as the crown fitted Fable's head and he felt the eye settled hidden inside his forehead, an absorption happened. In the twinkle of an eye and like the snapping of a giant sized finger, Fable disappeared from where he was without his will. When he rose, he found himself inside a little room of a flying, moving object, A PLANE.
