Previous Timeline, Planet Vermillion.

A few years later, after the Third Cataclysm.

In the Country of Luna, Marama.

..historical

It was during those days when I was travelling with Elle(Annabeth) to see the Queen of Lunas regarding some important event concerning the fate of the Planet Vermillion.

'Not the first time we are doing something to save the planet now.. in fact everything we, the 12, are getting involved with is somehow related to the fate of this planet,' I thought as I looked at the mountain in the front.

I was sitting at the top of the airship beside Elle, who was eating some popcorn while concentrating in front. It had been almost 3 years since Elle met the Luna Goddess and people there.

"Are you feeling nostalgic?" I asked as I took some popcorn from her bucket, making her glare at me for a few moments before I began taking a bit more.

-Slash

She used her sword to almost cut my hands, but I swiftly pulled it back with a victorious laugh as I began eating the popcorn. She simply sighs before speaking.

"I am just glad that they are alive till now.. at this point, you never know whom you will be meeting for the last time."

I just smiled back at her before speaking,"can you not be such a mood killer for sometime? Enjoy a little, will ya? Live a little, will ya? Our time is already limited in many ways, better to live whenever you can," and then take some more of her popcorn.

She just kept gazing at me before sighing and then smiling back as she spoke,"guess so.."

After that I asked her a bunch of questions and she answered half of them while ignoring the rest and just like that we reached Marama. Our airship landed directly into the castle at a specific platform built specially for the ships to land.

The Lunas there looked in our direction and watched Elle coming towards them. All of them smiled ecstatically as they began running in her direction with a bright smile on their faces.

I then see Elle smiling a little before jumping towards them and then hugging them while I looked at that sweet sight in front of me. There were other people with us too, who were mostly there travelling to this castle.

The Luna looked like Elves, except their mana nature was different from them from their very roots. Some of them looked at me as well and I just smiled and waved my hands, making them wave back at me.

Then, we moved towards the Queen's chambers, which wasn't that far from the airship landing area. It took us about 15 mins of walking to reach the chambers.

Reaching the chambers, I saw a bunch of guards near the gate, from where we were asked to move to the Throne Room.

Since they were so polite, we too did not ask any more questions and moved along with the guards before we reached the Throne Room.. and in front of the Queen of Luna.

There she was, sitting on that throne. Her hair was icy white and her powers were ice oriented, along with her special ability to look through a person's heart. Her eyes, which were as blue as the winter sky, looked at me with an analysing gaze, turned a bit furious before she sighed.

The reason she was a Queen was because of that blue flower that, probably originating from her back, had reached beyond her neck and took a turn to reach near her eyes, almost touching them. It looked like a peculiar combination with the flowers and leaves placed at odd places, but I guess it was what it was.

"Elizabeth. What business does a man like him have in this place?" Queen of Luna, Kirsi Neve, spoke as she looked at me as if I were trash standing in front of her.

"It's the curse of Black Purple Mist.. I heard your daughter is suffering from it," Elle said as she looked at Kirsi and she, a bit dumbfounded, turned her eyes at me with a complicated look before she asked,"you.. have a cure?"

It did not seem like she believed me.. or perhaps my low strength is the reason she did not keep me in high regard..?

"He is.. the Reaper," Elle spoke, making everyone gasp at me before a murmur started and everyone began curiously looking at me. I glared at Elle as I kind of threatened her not to tell her about me.. people who haven't seen me, do not know about me being strong and with my lack of normal mana, they take me as a weak person giving me an edge on them later on.

"It was the only way of making her believe in you.. she is a fan of Reaper," Elle smirked at me and my eyes immediately rolled at her. I then saw the Queen avoiding me as she turned away before coughing a little and then slowly speaking,"I see.. so you are that human, huh? The one.. who killed the entire hive of those triple Duke Parasites all by himself?"

Her eyes started sparkling once again as she looked at me with a completely different gaze than before. I sighed at her words as I recalled the madness I did..

'Well.. I would rather not remember it, though. It makes me recall Aslan, my best friend.'

"Well.. I guess it would be better if I take you to her," Kirsi spoke as she looked at us before all of us were taken to the Queen's chambers where we previously came from.

The Queen opened the gate, and I saw a lady in white sitting there near the window observing the scenery. She looked similar to the Queen in every way, except there was no flower pattern on her skin near the eyes and it looked as pure as white snow.

"This is Serina, my daughter. Can you take a look at her?" spoke the Queen, Kirsi, as she looked at me with a melancholic yet hopeful look.
