'...Everybody looked towards Elara.

She, for the second time..

Looked back at them, to their eyes.'

'And all again, were caught in her beauty and their minds...'

She spoke. in her usual calm, sharp and surreal voice.

"It's part of my powers, i dont know really but...

Since i was a child everybody stops living reality the moment i look into their eyes. My parents were the first to notice that. My mom in order to feed and raise me, always blinded her eyes, or else she could never focus enough to do that.

The examples for that are infinite throughout my life.

Though, touching me doesn't have the same effect.

The effect it has is that it raises the level of sensitivity and emotionality in the person, making him feel vulnerable and unable to act according to his own behavior. It makes their deepest desire appear on the surface."

Ayla, "I see... I came up to the same conclusion when i touched you before.

You don't have to worry about me when it comes to these effects.

I already held your hand and was just fine."

*Erala looked towards Ayla and smiled.*

'For the first time, she smiles at them.'

'Ayla did not realise when she started tearing up, until she felt her cheeks getting wet.

All the others could not handle the scene, they quickly looked away.'

"It's so beautiful it hurts."

'None of them ever knew what this quote really meant until today...'

Erala. Looked away again, with a face very sad it never suits such beauty..

"I am sorry, by being myself i keep causing confusion to people arround me...

With time i had taught myself how to reduce and control the effects of my powers. But i figured that since i'll be, fianlly..With people of my own, who also experienced having powers and its consequences... That i could be myself without restraining my powers. Doing that drains a lot of my energy. I was told by Guiado that the more i do it, the worse my health gets..."

'Everybody was left speechless when hearing Elera for the first time speaking this long and truthful.

They all felt sad and no one knew what to say or do.

Except..'

Ayla. put her hands on Elara's shoulders. "What are you talking about? You don't have to restrain yourself or hurt it just because of that.

I will not let that happen for any of my people.

Before i ever discovered my powers, i could see clearly the amount of care and protection i could give. It was like a god given ability, it never made me feel tired or bad to care and protect, even for people who did not deserve it. I always questioned the reason why?

Until i discoverd my powers, they were always within me without me noticing."

*At this exact moment, it hit Herald that he always liked to predict things before they happen, using evidences and intuition..More often than not he would be proven right, but he never thought this was because of his Atlantean blood.*


Ayla continued. "My powers are "Protection". By knowing what hurts a certain person i can place a part of me in them who'd always protect them from it."

*Ayla put her hand on Elara's chest.*

*Divine light appeared from her hand and her eyes, as she said*

"I sacrifice thyself, for thou's"

'Elara immediately felt the most comfortable she ever did since her birth..

The feeling of tender and safety that Ayla gives her is immense.'

'Ayla took her hands away and asked Everybody to look straight into the eyes of Elara.

Everybody did as Ayla asked.

This time, nobody snapped out of reality.

Not that her beauty got reduced or anything, they still find her to be of Angelic beauty.

But the effect her powers has were greatly reduced.'

Joshou. "I..I can look at her without feeling like the previous times.."

Sebastin. "Yes, same here."

Beazly. "I have to admit that I am greatly touched by both stories and powers.

This is truly inspiring, Values like these are what i learnt and lived by back in my homeland...

For some reason, both powers fit perfectly well with our situation."

Herald. "Yes i noticed..

Well, thank you Ayla. You're really something."

Ayla, laughs. "Hahahaha..Oh stop it! I did nothing of great importance."

*Elara hugged Ayla suddenly*

Ayla, shockingly. "Oh....Oh my!!! I am being hugged by the pretiest creature on earth!!!"

Elara. "Thank you, Ayla..

In such short time, you helped me more than any one could do before.."

Herald. "And for you Elara, i am sorry you had to undergo such things. It is not your fault that God chose you to be a great evidence for his creation..."

'Elara's snow-white cheeks turned slightly red..

It was a sign that she accepted Herald's statement this time...'

*Everybody smiled looking at her*

Beazly. "Isn't that really beautiful? I think we're ready now. Right Joshou?"

Joshou. "Yes we are! Sorry again for the delay."

Oumad. "You don't need to be, it actually led to very important things.."

Beazly. "Yes indeed, we know about each other now much more than we did moments ago!

Let's get through this damn Gate now."

*Everybody held hands again, forming one horizontal line. 2 steps behind the gate.*

Beazly. "We'll move when i'll finish counting to three!

One...

Two....

Three....

'They advance towards the Gate, as one body...
