Linda sprang out of bed as she had just woken up from her afternoon nap. She had made plans of going into the woods and fetching firewoods for preparing dinner and also for other reasons.
She sprang out of her bed and the first thing she did was to stretch. She opened the curtains, allowing the evening's sun rays to filter into her room.
Moving on, she entered the bathroom and had a quick shower, seeing that time was far spent. She didn't waste much time and so, came out of the bathroom quickly.
Leaving her room, she headed to the living room. She came across a black cat in the living room. It was sitting on one of the two black sofas in the living room.
"Hi! Delia".
Linda called out nicely to the black cat.
The black cat responded with a little 'meow' sound. It looked cute as it made the sound.
"You are as cute as ever, Delia. Sometimes, I wonder what I could have done without you".
Linda said as she willfully caressed the cat's fur. She did it so nicely and well that the cat couldn't help but give another 'meow' sound.
Linda's smile's broadened, seeing the way the cat accepted and enjoyed being caressed by her.
After some measure of time of caressing, Linda slowly let's go of the black cat and headed for the kitchen.
The kitchen was just across the living room. So,it wasn't hard for her to get there. The black cat didn't waste time in following her, while also meowing repeatedly.
Linda got to the kitchen and entered it, followed by Delia (the black cat). The kitchen wasn't that luxurious as those in the city or those in modern houses.
The kitchen is just as simple as ever, having various things and necessities in it.
The kitchen has a fireplace where, she (Linda) and Delia would usually sit close to, to warm up during winter. But despite the fact,it isn't yet winter, Linda would always want to keep the fire in the fireplace burning. At least, to add some warmth in the house, especially since they ( Linda and Delia) lived deep in the forest.
It could get cold at night. And now that evening was almost passing by, Linda wants to keep the fire burning.
As she enters the kitchen, she casts a little spell,snaps her the index finger of her right hand and magically, the fireplace was brewing with flames.
After magically making the fireplace burn, Linda heads for the kitchen cabinet where she would get food for Delia.
Delia hasn't had her lunch and perhaps was starving.
She opened the cabinet that is just on the wall of the kitchen. It was a long brown cabinet but certainly not a modern one. Likely, the colour of the kitchen cabinet blended well with the walls of the kitchen. Moreover, the kitchen walls are painted brown.
Linda quickly gets food for Delia and gets Delia's personal plate. She easily serves Delia some slices of pancakes and also gives her some milk to down it.
Delia meowed in appreciation and quickly set's on her mission by devouring the slices of pancakes.
Linda could only chuckle in amusement of Delia's cute character. She would have loved to sit down and watch Delia eat, but she had important things to do.
She crouched down beside Delia and caressed her body, once again.
"Hey! Delia. I will be going out for a bit. I'll be going to get firewoods for dinner. Please, promise to behave while I'm away and I promise not to stay long..... okay?"
Linda spoke in sweet voice (the one she could muster). Delia meowed in response as if she understood all Linda said.
Linda got back on her feet and turned, leaving the kitchen immediately. She would be leaving Delia at home since she would be going to gather firewoods. She would have taken Delia with her,as always but time was far spent and taking Delia with her would just be a waste of time.
Linda quickly got the things she needed for gathering firewoods. Things like a piece of cloth,a rope for tying woods,a locally made water bottle and some fruits,in case she needs something to chew.
These were the things she usually takes along anytime she goes to gather firewoods (alongside with Delia).
Linda left her little house, closing the door behind her. She came out with a bag in her right hand and a rope in her left hand.
She casually walked into the clearing that surrounded her little house and in no time, she was in the woods.
During her journey through the clearing, she came across some of her crops that were doing exceedingly well.
She smiled seeing her hard work turning into results. Some of her crops that were not doing well, she would quickly stop to enhance their growth with magic.
Somehow,as she enhanced their growth with magic,her magic abilities were really not bad. But surprisingly,it seemed like her magic was increasing.
Could it be related to the reborn of the Angel of war?
¥¥¥
Unknown Pov....
One of the two glowing orbs (souls of the Angel of war) has merged with a human soul. Coincidentally, that human soul is the son of a Governor. Just as the Prophecy speaks of and bonus to that, I have reported the results to my mistress and she is well impressed and glad about the results.
The reborn of the Angel of war is just a little close by and as it's my mission, I will make sure he gets reborn.
Currently, I am following or should I say trailing the other soul. As a demon, I choose to take the shape of a Raven.
That means, I had to shape shift into a Raven in trailing the other soul. I didn't really want to use my real demon form or my human form in trailing this golden orb. I would rather prefer using the shape of a Raven unlike when I used my human form in monitoring the merging of the first soul of the Angel of war with the Governor's son's soul.
Quite a long explanation, though.
The soul (glowing orb) is flying fast and rapidly over the city popularly known as the city of Santiago. It was once roaming around the atmosphere of the human world but now,it is flying rapidly over the city. The first soul had once done so.
According to perspective,it seems to be heading for a dense forest that is just beside the city. And it also seems, the next merging process would be happening with a baby's soul,in the forest.
However, it's kind of a confusing fact.
First of all, the souls of the Angel of war are supposed to merge themselves with baby human souls.
Second of all,it seems the next baby that this soul would be merging with is somewhere in the forest.
Thirdly,who would leave a baby in the forest for a magical soul to merge itself with the baby's soul?
Doesn't that seem to be some kind of a fate's doing. But it walks accordingly to one part of the prophecy.
'Born from the woods'.
Could it be that the next baby soul this soul is going to merge itself with,is born from the woods, according to the prophecy?
Just as my suspicions were, this second soul was heading for the forest beside the city.
I flap my Raven wings as I flew higher, trying to avoid the trees that came in sight as I trailed the second soul.
The golden glowing orb (second soul of the Angel of war) didn't seem affected by the trees of the forest. It just skillfully flew through the tops of the trees that were in the forest.
After some measure of time of flying through the trees in the forest, the golden glowing orb descended down from amongst the trees. I followed as well,by diving down in between the trees while keeping my wings beside me.
A cry of a baby caught my attention. I flew down and landed on a tree branch, with my eyes searching for the source of the cry.
The source of the cry is a baby of approximately three months old. He or maybe a she is lying on the grass surrounded by a bunch of huge and thick trees.
The golden glowing orb is hovering around the crying baby on the grass. Irrespective of the cries,it seems it wants to start the merging process with the baby.
I smiled internally, knowing that my mission would soon be complete.
Just as the prophecy says, the baby could actually be born from the woods. And everything that had happened today were in accordance with the prophecy.
