Chapter 10 - The Last Witch:Linda:1

Forest Of Acrata.....

In the dense forest of Acrata that is located besides the City of Santiago,lived a witch. Her name was Linda Parker. Actually, she's the last witch still existing in the world of the humans. As for the rest, they lost their ability to wield magic and chant spells when they had forgotten about the Angel of war.

Actually, the creation of witches and wizards clearly starts from the time when the Angel of war was still visiting humans (before he mysteriously disappeared).

During the time when, the Angel of war was still visiting humans, he would usually bless them continuously. He would usually bless them by making their lands fertile, providing water for their crops through the rains and also ensuring the survival of their livestock.

Those times were the times when humans would always prosper and peace alongside tranquility reigned. That was because, the Angel of war who would usually visit and appear to them, blessed continuously everything that concerns the humans.

Seeing them as a great race, the Angel of war would usually bless their harvest the most, making it more bountiful every year.

The blessings of the Angel of war was unconditional, seeing them as his people and them, seeing him as their Angel.

Alongside with the blessings that concerns the welfare of humans, the Angel of war blessed them with the essence called magic.

He blessed humans with magic, giving them entrance into spirituality.

As the Angel of war blessed the humans with magic, this leads to the creation of witches and wizards.

The first witch was a lonely,old woman who nobody cared for and everybody abandoned. She was a devoted worshipper and believer of the Angel of war.

She was a true and devoted worshipper of the Angel of war. She would always honour and respect him, offering her deepest worships, praises and thanks every single day. Some even saw her as a creepy old lady.

The Angel of war saw her devotion, during one of his visits to the human world and so, he blessed her with the ability to wield magic and chant spells.

Being blessed with such power, she was therefore known as the first witch. The rest that became witches were women who also devoted their lives to being worshippers and believers of the Angel of war. They also gained their ability to use magic and chant spells.

And as for wizards, they were men who joined the witches in devoting their lifetime in the worship of the Angel of war. They were also granted the ability to wield magic and chant spells.

It became discovered, during those times that one could only become a witch or wizard when he or she worships and honours the Angel of war fervently. He or she would therefore be bestowed with the ability to wield magic.

So, when one stops worshipping the Angel of war or even forgets about the Angel of war, he or she may loose the magic and the ability to wield it.

This brings us to the theory why there is only one witch in existence.

When the Angel of war suddenly stopped appearing and visiting humans, witches and wizards clearly stopped worshipping him. They stopped giving him honours and peradventure started forgetting about his existence.

With civilization taking place,it was easy for witches and wizards to easily forget about the existence of the Angel of war. They became just like every other human that forgot about the Angel of war.

And this resulted to them loosing their abilities to wield magic.

Somehow, it was simultaneous. As the Angel of war suddenly disppears,so did the magic he blessed humans with. And just like every other human forgot about the Angel of war,so did witches and wizards.

Over the years,a lot of witches and wizards have been loosing their abilities to wield magic and the existence of civilization, only made it worse. The population of witches and wizards decreased so much to the point where only one remains.

And that last witch is known as Linda.

However,fate has other plans for her, according to the prophecy.

Forest Of Acrata.....

Deep in the woods of the forest of Acrata stood a small house. It was made of bricks and blocks and well did to a living condition of a human being. Though, it didn't look like a civilised modern house but it could be manageable to the owner of the house.

The owner of this little house is Linda, Linda Parker in full. She is the last witch still existing in the world of the humans. She's a pretty middle-aged lady in her late forties and already having strands of white hair to show that she's getting old.

She lives alone in this little house with no families and friends. Infact, she chooses to distance herself from the people and the world at large.

Being the last fervent worshipper of the Angel of war, despite his disappearance, has made her to retain her magic abilities. Unlike her other kinds that loosed control and stopped worshipping the Angel of war. She had a willing spirit and she was damn going to finish what she started.

However, despite the fact she was bent on worshipping the Angel of war fervently and steadfast till her last breath, she still had her own hopes and fears.

Though,her fears would usually eat her up day by day and she suffered the torment of her fears especially since she's the only witch in existence.

It's already evening and almost sunset. The sun cast it's mild golden rays on the dense forest of Acrata. The golden rays fell on the small house that is owned by Linda.

The house is surrounded by a clearing, making it easier for Linda to plant her crops.

Linda is currently in her bedroom. She is peacefully sleeping on the bed that didn't seem comfortable compared to a luxurious king-sized bed. The bed was enough for at most two people.

Linda who is still sleeping with the rise and fall of her chest, wouldn't even realize it was almost night time.

It wasn't long until she jerked out of her slumber, sitting up immediately like she had a nightmare. She yawned noisily and wiped her eyes with the back of her hand. She continued rubbing them sleepily not realizing that time was far spent.

Actually, Linda is a pretty lady. If not for the fact that she is almost reaching old age,her beauty would have blossomed. Her pale white skin almost made her look like a vampire, coupled with her dark eyes that gave her the appearance of a real witch.

"Oh! It's almost night time!!"

Linda exclaimed when she gazed at the wall clock in the room that showed the time.

Nevertheless,her room is just as modest as ever, having a closet,a wall clock,a bed,a lamp and other things.

Linda sprang out of bed as she had totally lost course of time. She was taking her afternoon nap when she overslept. She had plans of going into the woods to gather firewoods of which she would use for making dinner but that is after her afternoon nap. But now she had overslept and lost course of time.

She better get ready to gather firewoods before it gets dark.
