Chapter 22 - War

Thick Fog surrounds Redekai. 

The boat that Reon and Raq'm borrowed touched the Island's black beach. 

Reon saw Red flora and fauna as far as he could see. Astonished as he'd never seen anything like this. 

Raqm guided the pair to the top of a hill, where there was a large building. Looking down he saw the island had no other buildings to speak of. 

The door of the small mansion bursted open as they approached inviting them in. 

Raqm'El had no sudden reaction so Reon followed suit. Reon knows of kinshi, but not much of the spiritual. He wanted to be careful going foward. 

The entire island gave Reon a strange sensation since he'd arrived, like a tingling in his spine which he couldn't control. 

Inside the mansion the first thing to catch Reon's eye was a giant banner depicticting a red moon, and many people and creatures bowing to it like a king or a god. 

This banner seemed quite old, and the style of ingrain was something Reon hadn't seen before. 

There were vials of red liquid sat on a red wood table, which Reon felt was strange but thought it had something to do with medicine as they were seeing a spirit doctor. 

Other than that the lobby of the building didn't seem too strange or unusual for Akram. 

"I held it that you wound't be seeing me again." a shrewd deep voice came from the second floor of the building. 

Looking up Reon saw a large middle aged man dressed in all red furs. 

"Of course I would! Why wouldn't I come to see an old friend of mine!" said Raqm spreading his arms. 

The man jumped down from the second floor landing softly. 

"Well… is your body in trouble from that technique of yours again?" said Wold. 

"No no of course not, I've been careful to slow down with it ever since I came here last time." Raqm'El smiled. "I've actually come to seek help for my student here." 

For the first time Wold acknowledged Reons existence. 

"Hello Senior Spirit Doctor. I am Reon DeValt." Reon slightly bowed. 

"I am Wolf. What seems to be the issue?" said wolf starkly. 

Reon explained his experience and trouble with energy control. How he'd trained for years yet still could not manifest his interior energy no matter what. 

"Alright, let me take a look at you." said Wolf. 

He grabbed Reon's shoulders and looked deeply into Reon's eyes, and Reon looked back. 

He noticed a faint glow coming from the mans eyes. 

This continued for a minute until Wolf furrowed his brows. 

"Your constitution and training are clearly above average kid, but of course you wound't be able to practice energy control. There's a powerful evil spirit inside you who is constantly draining your energy!" said Wolf. 

"What…re you serious!?!" Reon was surprised to hear this, but he was also skeptikal. 

"Of course. What would I gain from lying to you kid?" said Wolf. "Not only that but a fragment of your memory has been erased. Here stand still." 

Reon did as ordered standing still. Wolf flicked Reon on his forehead pretty hard. 

"What was that fo- Oh my lord!!!" shouted Reon. 

All of a sudden all of the memories that were erased by Icarus using his nano watch resurfaced. 

He remembered meeting that strange man named Icarus in the woods at his campsite. How Icarus told him about many things including the super advanced country of Evos. The Nano-Watch. His mission for being in Akram. All of it. 

"Oh my, gosh. There was a man from a far away country. He had a time piece that glowed with blue light and… he erased my memory of meeting him to hide his secret!" said Reon. 

"Really? That happened? What was the secret?" asked Raqm'El surprised and confused by all of these revelations. 

Reon explained everything that he had remembered. Hearing it all Wolf and Raqm looked at each other and understood what they were thinking. 

"This is interesting. It might actually happen soon." said Wolf. 

"I agree." said Raqm'El. 

"What is. Although its bad that he can erase peoples memories its not that big of a deal right. He seemed like a good person." Reon thought allowed. 

"Its not that simple Reon DeValt" Wolf said. "If a soldier or warrior is in another country for reconnaissance, that usually means the group they represent is staking out what kind of danger there would be in attacking." 

"You mean," said Reon.

"He means War." said Raqm.

Reon hoped that a war between Akram and Evos would not occur, but both the spirit doctor and his master Raqm made it seem likely to happen. 

"There is not a guarantee, but if a war does happen, you are the one more than anyone else who would upset the balance of the war. Because you are the only one who could have guessed that it was coming. That is why that Icarus fellow removed your memories." Wold theorized. 

"Either way you will be better off without that Evil spirit disruptiong your energy system." said Wolf. "Both of you follow me."
