Serena

“Her name was Zarviack,” King Krobpiok said. “She enlightened us and through her words we felt her love. You are like the spirit image of her.”

Serena listened to the king of the Laguans. He spoke so beautifully of her mother and a part of her was jealous to never have experienced her presence. She grew up hearing of what a deadly race the Laguans were but now she thought of them as peaceful and poetic. Her father told her that the Laguans were masters of poison and that they wanted to conquer land and sea, because they were ruthless and cold blooded. She wondered if her father ever stopped and spoke to them as she was. Did he ever stop and listen to what they had to say? Did he ever put himself in their position and look at the world through their eyes like she was trying to do? Father, you were wrong, she thought.

Auron and Eckxio stood beside her, waiting to hear of any clues regarding the sapphire jewel. It felt as if they had been in the underwater city for hours. They did not plan to stay for very long and Auron continued to remind her of the limited time they had.

As Serena waited to hear about the sapphire jewel, the king continued to speak about her mother and the time she had visited Mobororo. Serena finally interrupted the king and asked, “What happened to my mother and the jewel?”

“Ah, well, no one knows,” the king replied as he paced left and right in front of his throne.

“My father told me that she had disappeared with the sapphire jewel during the middle of war. Do you remember anything?” she asked.

The king’s eyes shrank and the orb inside his blue body glowed. He stroked his tentacle beard and pondered, nodding his head. “I think your father knew that she was the chosen one,” he answered. “She prophesized it herself. She would always try to make peace with the Laguans but King Sarbock always chose war. Thirty years ago your family had the sapphire jewel and we intended to take it. Just like you, your mother created a plan for both humans and Laguans to share the Sapphire Cosmo Jewel. However, your father decided that peace could not exist between us and one race shall forever claim the jewel and thus war broke out.”

King Krobpiok gazed up at the jellyfish that moved throughout the space of his dome. His gaze gave the impression that he would cry but Serena knew that no underwater creature could shed a tear. Looking at him she could feel his sadness and regret like waves moving through her after crashing on the sea shore.

“Thirty years ago, the Maerians and Laguans engaged in war,” the king continued. “The Sapphire Cosmo Jewel was summoned by Oceamus, preventing both armies from colliding. Then she appeared from the sky. She was called by the jewel and its magic caused a snowstorm and froze the land and sea. That woman, Zarviack, she took the jewel and it obeyed her.
