Chapter One: Living In Indus

Indus, Northern Aryavarta

Charmeine Vanti was once a goddess bestowed with the title Goddess of Harmony. She was one of the many angels from Aryavarta, the City of Angels who was given the privilege to maintain peace, harmony, and balance of the kingdom. However, she refused accepting it and preferred to live in the secluded and remotest northern part of Aryavarta called Indus.

“May I know the reason you feel it would be better not to accept this title, Vanti?” she still remembered the Angel King's question back then. She was standing in front of the many angels waiting for her reason.

“Because this is not my calling, my king,” she replied, bowing in front of the Angel King.

“Please explain, so all of us her can understand, Vanti,” King Angel was not satisfied with her answer, and he wanted her to speak in front of the crowds of angels.

“I want to stay in the Indus,” she continued, and she heard many disappointments from them. She just ignored it and finish her statement. “The peace and harmony of this kingdom lies on your hands, my king. And as subordinates, I am not against conferring you this title. However, I'd rather stay in the Indus to plant trees, flowers, and live in peace alone than taking this responsibility. There are many female warriors like me who's capable of the same title, and I want you to give this to those who really wanted it, my king.”

“What if I feel it would be better not to accept your reason, Vanti?” King Angel was controlling his anger that time, and he would like to hear her once last answer to his question before punishing her.

“You have the power to everything, my king. You can remove my name from the female angels you have in this kingdom and forget me, or kill me instantly in front of the angels here,” she said. She was firmed and brave to tell what she has in mind.

“You!” The King could no longer control his anger and stood up. “Raise your head, Vanti!”

She was standing straight, looking at the king of the angels face to face, waiting for her punishment.

“I will remove your name Charmeine Vanti from the names of the angels in Arvayarta Kingdom. You will be demoted into a commoner. I won't take away your powers, but you will be forgotten in this kingdom. Open the door!” He shouted. Charmeine Vanti was firmed with her decision and accepted the punishment the king ordered to her.

“All angels present here, I command you to stop mentioning Vanti's name. Whoever talk about her or mentioned her name will be punished heavily. From now on, she will no longer an angel in this kingdom. The door is open for you, Vanti. Do whatever you want in the Land of the Indus.”

That was the last words she heard from the King of Angel, the Ruler of Arvayarta Kingdom. The moment she walked towards the door of the kingdom, she was set to do one thing. And that's to live the way she wanted outside Arvayarta without turning back.

Now, in the Indus, Charmeine succeeded living alone happily outside Arvayarta. She planted her favorite Eucalyptus trees, wild orchids, and several daffodils while singing and playing with her favorite harp. She was thankful to the king because her powers were still intact, and she can do everything to make her work as light as possible. And she succeeded indeed. The secluded and remotest northern part Arvayarta became fertile and livable place she lived in.

…

Helio, Land of Demons

8,000 miles (12,874.75 km) away from Arvayarta

“This is a boring life inside Helio. What can I do to make kill this boredom?”

A demon with pointed horn and elongated, sharp tail stretching from its butt was standing in front of his window, looking at the molten rock coming out from the volcano. He was upset because he can't do anything to please himself. Killing untrustworthy demons in front of him was not fun at all. And the fact that his father wants him to be the next king of the demons infuriates him.

“I hate this. I need to satisfy myself first before accepting the title from father.”

He turned his gaze towards a small volcanic hole in his chamber and started stirring the boiling waters using his bare hands. And what happened next surprises him. He saw a beautiful lady singing and playing with her harp somewhere eight thousand miles away from their kingdom.

“This is what I called fun.”

An evil plan began stirring up his mind and in one snap of his finger, he hid his true form and uses the human body to execute a hideous plan with the woman he saw earlier. Without asking permission from his father, the king, or to the guards guarding his chamber outside, he disappeared and found himself standing behind the shadow of Eucalyptus trees. There, he saw and heard the woman's voice continue playing her harp, singing in front of her flowers.

“You are the one I need to satisfy my wants. Let the fun begin!”

…

CHARMEINE VANTI was busy playing with her harp and singing in front of her blooming flowers. Her voice captured all the attention of the creatures and animals living in the Indus. Some untamed and tamed animals were standing and crawling in front of her just to listen to the melody she was singing.

I will always love all of you,

I will never leave all of you,

I will stay here with you.

Through the good and bad,

I'll stay here until my life is through.

Love has found a home from me and you.

The wind embraces and kisses her. The flowers were swaying and dancing to her tunes. The animals watching and surrounding her were clapping her. And it made Charmeine Vanti's heart shout for joy. But, the happiness was temporary when she notices the animals started running away. And when she found out the reason, she was speechless, looking at a stranger standing in front of her.
