Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Petrified Tendons
Hexel hitches his breath. He can feel the rocky ground scrape his face. Hexel's right leg is held by a rough palm as it drags his whole body face down the soil.
Hexel can see a dark manly figure but is blurry due to the dust swarming his eyes. Someone lift him single handedly and threw him motionless in a square tower with unknown depth. His eyeball can see how fast it zoom in to his injured body. He forcefully flipped himself mid air to avoid his head from being crushed. When he heared his bone cracked from the fall his sight got dim and black.
Urchin hath his eyelids folded for the longest time. Natalina and Lila who is observing him can see and feel that he is conscious. He is like a cute doll seated and displayed for a long time. The clock click and dong but Urchin have no sign of eye balls unraveling.
Urchin saw a young girl wearing a white laces dress with her red shoes. A man is dragging her as if the whimpering girl is a trash. Despite rough ground scratching her unclothed flesh. Her hands held tightly a brown bear doll close to her chest. The following events made Urchin's close eyes squeeze a lone tear on his left cheek.
The huge manly figure tied the girl on a rectangular thin wooden platform and started to beat her with whips and belts. Caterwaul echoes inside of the quadrilateral space tower. Her blood splat the broken floor and it was used to gas up a flask. The young girl blink her unstoppable tears. The huge dark man lift her feeble body within a coffin. He closed the coffin and sealed it with nails. The young lady can't breath. The limited box engulf her oxygen mixed with her dripping blood. The coffin ignited a blue flame that the unknown man howl sending the behave animals to yelp.
Urchin started to shriek and shrill. Natalina and Lila were both taken a back. Lila carried Urchin and rub his back but he continue to sob achingly.
Natalina called Kiel, Lehi and Ophir. When Ophir gently tend Urchin and have him rest on his lap suddenly he saw the vision seen by Urchin. Ophir immediately call for Natalina to craft the following word "MITZEL. "
Urchin drift to sleep because his eyes got tired and swollen from his lament.
Ophir told them about the tenebrous scene Urchin have witnessed. For a young boy to see such tremor is unbearable and terrifying.
"Another foreign word is given to the team the first word ih lubēre yūyam which mean I LOVE YOU. Now it's MITZEL"
Lehi reviewed as she check her notes. "What if this I LOVE YOU have another meaning. What if it's not literal?"
Lehi voiced out her concern.
"What-hoo do you-hoo mean?" Von asked.
"I mean, like when Ophir and Kiel prayed for rain and salt water but it empowered the azure fire instead of killing it. "
Lehi explicated.
"Nice one Lehi, You are right! So it means we need to know more of it's root. Then we need to think simple in this matter. "
Kiel approved of Lehi and even put his hand on Lehi's shoulder.
"Alright Kiel, you applauded her wisdom but do you really need to put your arm around my wife's shoulder? "
Ophir pointed out as he signaled him to look at Lila. Immediately Kiel removed his arms and just continued to discuss trying not to make the atmosphere awkward.
"The word I can also mean Mine or the one who spoke."
Natalina reasoned out.
"Love can also mean pleasing from the latin word. "
Lehi added as she encircle each word.
"You-wee can also pronounce-wee as thee or thou-wee and thou means-wee thousand years. "
Wee followed through.
" So if we arrange the sentences.... Natalina suggested and prayed.
" Lord, we know that you are the beholder of truth and words. Helps us to arrange and find answers so that we can aid your servant Hexel. "
Letters have arranged themselves with emerald stroke.
"The one who spoke pleasingly a thousand years is MITZEL"
"Mitzel is a name?" Ophir noted
"Then does that mean the one Urchin saw was Mitzel? " as he continued on.
The team can't even find a solid lead to where Hexel is taken.
"By the way is a tower around here that is not round but squared? "
Ophir inquired as he continue to recollect all that Urchin have seen.
"Yes-ho, There is-ho" Von confirmed
Okay the hill was not really high but are countless. It's like a heaps of chocolate or cookies but is not sweet to eat. Rather it would give you the ability to lose your appetite. The team with Von and Wee are now infornt of a thorn garden. That is why Von just let all of them ride him, until they reach the said tower. But there is a catch to this tower you have to climb till you reach the top. The only way to get inside this tower is to throw yourself on the hole. But jumping to a very in depth tower is more rigorous than pitching youself on a cliff.
Thanks to Von's big feet they are able to climb up the tower and before jumping, Ophir just led the team in prayer.
"God who predestined everything, We do believe that there is a purpose for this. Empower our courage, strength and faith. Shield us from any attack in here and help us locate and save Hexel your dear servant. Remind us to do this not for ourselves but for your love and glory. Amen. "
With that the team dive into the unending voidness. Trusting that Hexel will be retrieve and is safe.
