THE ROD OF COMMAND

SECRET MIRROR

SECRET MIRROR

“It flows outside to draw honest and pure hearted ones to this cave. But fortunately you are the only honest and pure hearted one to find and enter this cave”. She said, 

Outside the cave, the other sides are far from the shadow cave because of the distance it gave the evil ones near the cave.  

The evil Vigora was still standing and waiting for Delmar as he sent his messengers to search out if there was another exit that possibly Delmar would sneak out from there. But they all died one after another on the roadside of the shadow cave because they try to get near it as he draws them to himself and strikes four of them to death. 

The rest tried to flee back but they were lost and they returned to another spot still around the shadow cave. They did not know which way to go because the road was blocked, and as they were moving forward, they saw a black berry around the cave. They all rushed to eat it as they were very hungry.  

After eating and being satisfied, they face each other and strike themselves to death as they are being enchanted. 

“No one seems to come back and give me feedback,” the evil Vigora said.  

So he checked his right palm hand and he watched how they all died as through his powers it was all reviewed to him, only what he can see has a limit, he can not see those ones or things he is not connected to.  

After seeing all, he commanded all his messengers to withdraw and he planned another means to get Delmar.  

The secret water inside the cave. Delmar was asked to go deep into the secret water by the revised Helena to see what he needed to know. So Delmar and the revised Helena entered the secret water but in Delmar's body, it did not feel like water because his body was not wet at all.  

He took the Rod Of Command with him. When he got beneath the water, he saw a mirror called the mirror of the seeker, then the revised Helena said, “see for yourself through the mirror of the seeker my son and the mirror will show you everything”. 

So Delmar came from behind and moved to the front and looked at the mirror. Looking at the mirror of the seeker, he saw from the beginning when it all started with Helena. 

When she was hit by a car, he saw a young man at that time who was John, his father, who ran to help the dying Helena and rushed her to the hospital. How they both started developing a strong feeling for each other, and how  they later got married. He also saw how Helena was pregnant with a baby, when she gave birth in the ship and the wreckage of the ship. 

Delmar was still looking at his sad previous life, but he did not quickly notice it was all about him, he saw again how everyone died except Helena, his mother who was saved by John in the ship.

He saw when a woman from the sea took the baby who went down beneath the sea, and the baby was taken to a world under the sea, he continued looking and the woman's face was the face of Queen Sisiana, his adopted mother. 

But Delmar does not know who that baby that was adopted by the Queen was, so he kept looking to see what would end up with the whole story being revealed to him.

  He saw again, the face of the infant baby to be his own face  after being given a great power by the queen herself and as she nursed him to a grown up boy at the age of fifteen . After seeing himself then he understands the real truth about himself, knowing that Helena was his biological mother.

He remembered how she was so kind to him when Evelyn took him to her house. He had been feeling the strong connections of the blood between a mother and a son all that while, but he was so blind to notice.

Delmar felt downhearted and asked, “then who really are you?” The revised Helena answered, “as I already told you before that I am the revision of your mother, all what you saw here today are not real, they are just the secret hidden to an innocent pure hearted man like you. My son, as soon as the secrets have been revealed to you then everything revised will be gone, your secrets have been made known to you my son”. 

After saying that, the horns and the weird things in her body vanished, she turned to a beautiful Helena, his mother, and slowly she also vanished. Delmar tried to stop her when she was slowly vanishing from her head to the toe but he could not touch what was not real.

After that, he ran to meet up with his revised father too but his revised father has no much to say to him and vanished as well, but left a faded letter written with smoke on the space states, “I have no much memories of you my son, but I so much love you and be strong always”.

After reading it, he gave way to tears again, the writing faded away too. He braced himself and set to find the exit of the shadow cave, he continued to search and he saw a round thing like a symbol on the floor of the cave but not a symbol, it was the only way for his exit.

He touched it and the cave opened to another place, the shadow cave took him to the way of the city, he was so amazed as he found himself near the city, but he can not let the Rod Of Command be exposed to the public. So he ran with speed to where he lives, that was Helena his biological mother's house and kept the Rod Of Command there.

He alerted Dehina and she came, when he showed her the Rod Of Command, she was relieved that the mission had been accomplished.

“Now let us return back to our world and return the Rod Of Command to our Queen and restore back what we have lost,” she said.

But Delmar, who knows his hidden secrets, feels the earth was his home and does not feel good to go back to Shashiah his world, so he kept silent for a moment. But Dehina noticed his silence and asked, “what is it Delmar, do you not feel comfortable after all the effort to get back the Rod Of Command, and now you finally got it, are you not happy?”.

“Yes I am,”  he answered.

“You sure you are?” she asked.

So she opened the door and left him for some time to give the next order of what step to take. 

Later, Delmar called Evelyn but she was not responding to his call. 

So they went to her grandfather's house, when they got there, they met Elis, Evelyn's nephew, the boy who reads people's hearts, “are you Evelyn's friends,” asked by the boy Elis.

And Delmar answered, “yes we would be happy  if you tell us where she is”.

So the boy kept silent for a  while. 

 He tries to read their hearts to see whether they have good intentions towards Evelyn. But he failed because they are not ordinary people.

Because he found it difficult to read their hearts, he asked, “who are you people?”. 

Dehina answered, “we are Evelyn's friends”.

Then he told them that Evelyn was in the hospital to take care of her grandfather.

He described the location of the hospital and Delmar asked Dehina to take care of the boy Elis since he is the only one left alone in the house.

 Dehina obeyed and did as he said as he left to visit Evelyn in the hospital. Elis was not comfortable with Dehina because he was scared of her being the only one he can not go through her heart. Seeing the way Elis was doing, she pampered him by telling him many sorts of twinkling Little star stories, and feeling his heart with love. 

In the hospital, Delmar asked one of the nurses, to know which of the places Evelyn was, with her grandfather. He asked the nurse by describing the appearance of Evelyn, he should have used his powers to sneak in, but he wanted to keep things the human way and follow the human rules of living. 

He followed the direction of the nurse according to her description and he opened the door to where Evelyn and her grandfather were, for she had been staying with her grandfather for more than twenty four hours.
