“Avaratia
has awakened…”
“Yea,
I know. This is inevitable after all.”
“How’s
Ari?”
“Nothing
to worry about… He’s stronger than he looks y’know.”
“So,
you already fixed with your decision, nii-sama?”
“…yeah,
Ren. There’s someone waiting for me…”
“Â,
sô desu ka… As long you’re happy. That’s fine with me.”
“But,
Ren… Do you think I can handle something like this? You know that I was born as
a Healer instead as a Warrior. There’s nothing I could do if that’s related to
attacking or self-defense.”
“That’s
alright, nii-sama. You still can do something with your abilities. Nothing is
useless in this world. Even a trash could be something useful if we found the
way how to recycle it. Even a small thing could mean the most.”
“I
believe we’re as human beings are born to complete each other. That’s why there’s
a beauty in diversity!”
“Listen,
nii-sama! Life is short, so no time to lose.”
“I
believe they will understand someday. When you’re coming back here…”
“So,
it’s alright… Even if you lose now, you still win.”
Creators are divided into several classes.
Each of class is
unique and no one can replace them.
There are…
Warrior, which
specialize in fighting and banishing Evil Spirits
Guardian, which
specialize in defend others from harms that created by Evil Spirits
Architect, which
specialize in creating shelter and useful environment to repel Evil Spirits
Supporter, which
specialize in abilities to giving encouragement and helping others in their
hour of need while fighting malicious Evil Spirits
Healer, which
specialize to heal the wounds of others who are hurt by the cause of Evil
Spirits
We can’t choose our specialties, those are inherited through
lineage. We can still learn other but it’d take a long time compare to who’s
gifted with it. So, that’s why we’re not fighting alone, there also another
Creator that assigned to us as our partner to fight.
Nü Kå Seev lineage has been known as Warrior type of
Creator. That’s why Red is our color. Positive thing about Red symbolizes about
strength, the downside of it oftentimes being a Hot-Headed already part of our legacy.
My Father has been fighting Evil Spirits alongside with my
Mother. She’s a Healer herself. That’s a short story of why they’re being
together. But, who I am now? I already lost my privilege as Creator and nothing
can restore my powers back except the one who strip all of my powers.
Am I still qualified as Creator myself?
Under his tutelage, I began my training as a Warlock. He didn't seem fit as a teacher. He always yelling, telling and bossing me around.
But, he’s a Warlock himself.
Warlock is a man equivalent of the Witch. A person who
practices Witchcraft, someone who uses supernatural powers, it just looks like Wizards
in Harry Potter, Mages in Final Fantasy series or an Elementalist in Guild Wars
2.
Grizz starts to tell me a little bit of him, even he not the
type who loves to talk.
He’s once a Creator himself, he’s born as a Warrior and come
from Auberon family.
Grizz didn’t tell me the detail but as far that I know,
there’s one kid from Auberon family. He’s infamous for his misbehavior. People
always know that’s him from his favorite color. It’s Red.
Mistreated, misunderstood, always second guessing and
underestimated.
Oftentimes people didn't get his intention.
And that always lead him into trouble although he didn't mean to. I don't know if he's the same person.
Well, back to Grizz. There’s something happened and changes
his whole life forever and he decided to sacrifice all of his powers just to
save someone that dearest to him.
I can’t imagine that this free-loader is kind of sweet
person... sort of.
Yeah, we never can tell what comes inside from outside
appearance alone. It takes time for us to truly understand someone. I remember
what my Father told me:
“We can
delve into the bottom of the ocean, but nobody knows about what lies beneath in
a person heart.”
I asked him about that someone dear, he suddenly stopped, he didn't say me anything else and chose to walk away. But, his eyes reflect anguish. Old folk said to me that eyes are window of the soul; even we didn't say anything but our eyes tell everything.
He told me to focus into my training. He stills there until
he left a letter in the Forgotten Grotto.
There’s
nothing else that I could teach you, Aristo. You’re already learning all of the
basic yourself. Just believe in what you can do, trust in what your heart told
you and the path will be open like jujutsu. Use your new-found powers for a good
deed.
P.S:
Experience is the best teacher.
P.P.S:
It’s mine, I leave Citrine to you. I’m no longer needed it. It’s a happy stone
and can dissipate fear of being alone or unworthy of love. Take a good care of
it.
Sincerely,
Grizz
Auberon
I can sense something feel off.
It’s coming…
One night I feel something odd in the air.
I cast a protective barrier around the household using
gemstones that I had. It’s “Ward Against Harm”. I still can’t fully control over
my power yet, at least this is something that I could do to prevent the worst
for people that dearest to me.
And that’s true.
In the next morning everyone is changed. There’s something
odd with their looks. It looks like that they are under someone control.
It looks like a Z-Day.
I use my power to repel Evil Spirits from them; in a blink of an eye they’re coming back to normal. Thing that I learned they’re searching for someone; they seek the “Raven”. I thought that Avaratia will destroy this place for good once she’s awakened.
Avaratia, it’s
a Latin name for Greed. She’s one of Seven Deadly Sins.
She will do anything to get everything that satisfies her
desire. Previous generations of Creator did their best that they could to seal
her off and other Deadly Sins. Deadly Sins didn’t have physical bodies, so it
must be possessed someone nearby or who’s become as an offering as a Sacrifice.
I think it just a matter of time until other seals are
broken.
I guess that she’s seeking for “Power” that the “Raven” had.
Let alone Avaratia,
her subordinate they’re too darn powerful.
This is insane! It looks like lv. 1 fighting something bunch
of enemies over lv. 20 without stocked with healing potions, equipped with
properly equipments and mostly are limited to basic skills without a chance to enhances
the power!
I can’t handle it all alone. Not without my Creator powers!
I tried my best until I reached my limits.
…Is this the end…?
Father… Mother… Sister…
I'm sorry if I couldn't bring you back. I did my best and I regretted that I'm not the best family that you had. Slowly, I can feel my body weaker, I lose my power. I began to lose consciousness and everything starts to turn into black.
I guess Warlock for me mean Oath Breaker instead of Wizard.
I also cannot uphold my promise to you.
Forgive me…
“Healing Seed!”
“You’re
not fighting alone!”
“You
come…”
“Sorry,
it took times for me to get here. Remember about what I’ve told you?”
“Two
is better than one right?”
“Let’s
us end all of this!”

Ari’s
Ramblin’
I watched
Shaun of the Dead around 2006 and the phrase that I remember “You Got Red On
You” It’s funny to see how my life has turned out destined to meet my own Red. I’ve
seen so many Black and Red in my journey (either on the road, music video, etc)
and it seems like crazy that whenever I go, wherever I went, I always heard songs
that remind me of Red.
The
last song that I heard was ‘Beautiful In White’ from Westlife. It made me shiver,
because seems like Red is the missing piece in my life, my sole reason to keep
on living. I’ve been lost will of living since 14; I thought my whole existence
is nothing.
Well, I’m
just nothing but burden to my family after all; I am nothing but disappointments
as far they know about me. I can’t do everything right nor satisfied their high
expectations.
I hate myself because why I am so different from others. Why I couldn't blend like other kids? Why everyone always hate me even I didn't do anything wrong to them? Why I only fit with older folks and Elders?
I pondered about what’s my purpose and meaning of life and after went through journeys; I realized that’s to helping others. Solely just make others smile just because of me, I always feel warm-and-fuzzy.

At
least I can do something useful in my life.
...and be proud of myself because I am not a society trash like what they said. At least my life could be a blessing to others not a curse. That's why I couldn't hold my tears when I listen to Superheroes from The Script.

So, it’s
time for me to be happy.
I’ve
got enough to sacrifice myself, even my future just to please others. It’s time
for me to be with someone who I truly loved and loved me back.
That’s
Red.
Seems
like Author of my life decided to give me a Happily Ever After all.
It’s a
long and winding road.
But, it’s
worth the shot and it’s just a matter of time.
