The Story

Endless Rain

Part 30: Different plans

In the past times, when the evil monsters were gone and the leader of the good monsters, Afrain, had taken refuge at the Clouds Before the Sun with his family, his sons remained on The Land of Dead Fairies. However, to be not entirely childless, Afrain took his daughter, Lana, along with him. He soon regretted it however, as Lana was not happy with her father’s choice. She thought of him as a coward, or so Afrain thought. In truth, however, Lana had been in love with Layou, Lord of Chaos and evil.

When The Passage of the Rainbow had only just appeared, Lana came up with a plan. In order to rescue her love from his prison in the center of the earth, she would try to obtain the five Hikari Crystals, thus to break the seal that kept her love away from her. She even came as far as to obtain the five crystals, but before she could use then, her father, Afrain, had noticed her deceit. With a broken heart he exiled Lana from The Clouds Before the Sun. The people wanted her to join Layou at the center of the earth, but Afrain couldn’t bare the thought. He left Lana alone on the lands and made sure she wasn’t accepted anywhere.

And so Lana lived alone for all those bitter years. Afrain made sure his daughter wouldn’t be able to get the crystals again by letting them be guarded by a set of five special children. It is said that those children were survivors of the fairy family that was crushed by the evil lord. They had taken all the spirits of their dead relatives and had grown very powerful. The children were called Mermaid Aquateam, Gaia ‘Urania’ Titaniacare, Pyro Phoenixtruth, Typhoon Gryffinstrength and Serenity ‘Siren’ Soulheart.

Lana was almost at the point of giving up, until she heard that two tribes were desperately trying to find the Hikari Crystals. Since her father and her brother, Baku, were helping the Mikomi Tribe, she decided to help their enemy, the Sendo Tribe…

“So, are you going to help me, or are you going to be a chicken?” Lana demanded of Kyen Koh.

Kyen Koh didn’t know who this woman was. It seemed her father and her brother were helping the Mikomi, but who were her father and brother? Kyen Koh was in a terrible dilemma. At first she wanted Hitori and the other Mikomi to leave the valley, but deep in her heart, she knew that she wanted to leave this accursed valley as well.

“The clock is ticking, tik tok tik tok, by the time you’ve made up your mind the Mikomi have left the valley already.” Lana said acidly.

“How do you know that the Mikomi have, what you call, the ‘three lights’?” Kyen Koh asked the mysterious woman.

Lana laughed softly, for as far you could call it a laugh that is. Her years of bitterness had made all happy emotion come out evil. It chilled Kyen Koh to the bone.

“Let’s just say I have my sources. You know you don’t have a choice Kyen Koh. The Sendo can already taste Mikomi blood. Why do you keep them on a leach, if you can let them go as roaring blood hounds? Is it because you see that Mikomi leader, lady Hitori was her name I think, as your friend, and do you try to keep the Sendo away from them, and do you cheer when a crystal your tribe mates found is a fake?”

The Sendo guards were getting restless. Was this strange woman telling the truth? She really showed a Sendo heart so it had to be true, right? Kyen Koh saw that she was hanging on a steep cliff, and the only way to be saved, was by going into war with the Mikomi. This strange woman had seen right through her. Who was she? With regret she took her sword that was hanging on the wall above her throne.

“Gather the men, we are going to war with the Mikomi!” She bellowed while she raised the sword above her head.

An agreeing roar rose up from everybody who heard it. At an instant all soldiers were getting ready.

Lana placed her pale hand on Kyen Koh’s shoulder, “You know this is the right thing to do. You want to leave this accursed valley, don’t you?”

Kyen Koh bowed her head, “Yes.” She said softly. She did want to leave the valley.

Lana walked away to overlook the preparations.

“I’m sorry Hitori.” She whispered to herself as a tear gently rolled down across her face.

It landed on the ground, where once a stain of blood from her dying sister Aiko, who had foolishly tried to escape from her prison to kill Kyen Koh and retake her throne back, had once been.

Lana looked at the bloodthirsty Sendo tribe and smiled to herself, “Fight my war for me, pitiful little Sendo’s, but when the battle is over I will have different plans with the Hikari Crystals…”
