Part 2 Chapter 35
Nora’s POV
I remember that I accidentally touched the water in the fountain after I saw Maya torturing Melinda. But
where am I right now? This doesn’t look like any place that I know of, this looks like a desert. There is
sand everywhere and I am standing on a hill made of.. sand.
I turn around but all I see is sand, everywhere. I try to listen so I close my eyes and concentrate,
listening hard. I jump when I feel someone touch my shoulder and I turn around just to stare at a man I
didn’t recognize. He speaks to me in a foreign language.
1 tilt my head at him and he laughs and hugs me. This is so strange. Where am I but I follow him since
he seems to know where he is going. We walk for a long time, I think, but everything around here is
sand so I don’t know.
But we come to a town at last and I stop and just stare at it. The houses are made of stone, and they
look really old but at the same time very new. Perhaps the question isn’t where I am but when I am?
*Aurelie?* I try to ask her but I feel that my mind is empty. She isn’t there. Oh sh it.
The man catches my attention and he smiles and kisses me and I step back from him. He looks
worried and tries to speak with me but I just shake my head. I don’t know who he is or what he is
saying.
He sighs but he leads me into the village, it’s more like a village now when I am so close to it. People
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtare out of their houses and waves and talking to me but I still don’t
understand. The man pulls me along and I go with him until I see something that flashes between two
houses.
I pull my hand from him and run for that thing I saw but when I come there I stop and smile. It’s the
same fountain that the moon goddess has. I walk up to it and look down at the water and I gasp. I can
see my reflection but this isn’t me. I don’t look like this, who is this?
“Oh I see, you are not her right now” a voice speaks softly and I look up.
A woman with white hair and blue eyes is standing opposite of me. The man that dragged me here
comes running and pulls me behind him while he speaks to the woman in that language that I don’t
understand.
“Excuse me, but when is this?” I ask her as I shake away his arm and step out from him.
“This is the beginning” she says and I tilt my head. The man looks at me like he can’t understand but I
don’t let him catch
me again.
“Okay then who is this?” I ask and point at the body that I am currently in.
“That body belongs to a woman that is his wife” the woman with white hair explains and I nod. Now I
know why he kissed
me:
“You two share the same soul so Luca didn’t see the
difference between you two” she says and smiles. But her
smile is very cold and distant. “Luca? Aurelie’s brother?” I say and turn to the man and he seems
surprised. “You know Aurelie?” the woman asks me and I nod. “Yes, her mother is Artemis” I say and
vaguely remember the story Mariah told me when I was in a coma.
“Hmm how much time has passed, I wonder” she hums for herself but I heard her.
“I am not sure but this land.. where are we?” I ask her and step closer to her. I don’t feel any threat from
her so I take a chance of getting closer to her. “This land is where I took Luca and ran away from the
moon goddess and my family” she says and smiles sadly. “The moon goddess, but isn’t she in her own
realm?” I ask and she looks strangely at me. “This is her realm” she says and I try so hard to remember
the lessons about the moon goddess land. I remember the painting in the blue room where the moon
goddess was painted over a land that was whole. It wasn’t split into eight kingdoms yet. Is it there when
I am right now? Before the kingdoms split? “What are you thinking about, little one?” the woman asks
me and I look at her. “History” I say and try not to reveal too much to her and she nods. “Yes I bet you
are and you have probably heard a lot of different stories, haven’t you?” she said and I nodded. “Well
everyone that has created a story has their own point of view so even if you hear one story you can
never understand it completely until you have heard all of them that were in the same story” I say and
she looks surprised at me.

being smart.
The man, I mean LUca, starts to speak again and this time the woman looks at him and then answers
him. And he went quiet so I turned my head to see that he was sad.
“What did he ask you about?” I ask and turn to the woman again.
“He was wondering who you are. It seems he has figured it out that you aren’t his wife right now and I
told him that you are a visitor in his wife’s body” she says and I blink at her.
“What are you so surprised about?” she asks me.
“Well the history says you are cold and ruthless and always lies to Luca so I am just surprised by your
honesty” say without telling her too much.
“Well that wasn’t so nice at all. What does history tell you about me more then?” She asks and I
wonder if I should tell her or not but I go with it. Hoping I am not doing anything stu pid.
“You will be blind by jealousy and kill Luca’s wife since he left you for her” I say gently and she stares at
me and backs away.
“What, no, I would never dream of hurting her. How can I do that? I love her just as much as Luca
does” she says and looks horrified at me.
Luca speaks again and now I am curious at what he is saying because the woman smiles gently at him
and nods.
“He wants to know your name,” she says.
I turn to face Luca and I put my hand on my chest, well it isn’t really my body but whatever.
“Nora” I say
