Chapter 78: And So, the Tale Unfolds

A thousand years ago, the world had given birth to Profeta. To be more accurate, it had most likely been a thousand and four or five years ago, but even Profeta herself could no longer be sure, so we shall round it down and stick to a thousand.

As one of the world’s proxies, Profeta was born with an intellect on par with that of humans. Thus, she’d never gotten along with her kind. After a few difficult years, she’d decided to leave her homeland behind and embark on a journey.

She hadn’t had any specific goals in mind, but she’d had a destination. As the prophet, Profeta knew where the saint would be born. The only issue was that she was a turtle. At the time, Profeta hadn’t been as big as she was now, so she’d been even slower. Every step she’d taken was slow and steady, true to her species’ name.

After she’d traveled for a while, Profeta had reached a place where food was scarce. Unable to sustain herself, she’d almost died alone on the side of the road.

The one who’d saved Profeta was a certain woman who, in those days, had yet to lose her mind entirely—Eve.

While she’d had an inkling that the prophetic turtle would eventually become a thorn in her side, Eve had picked her up nonetheless—she needed her. A child had been growing inside of Eve’s belly, and she’d been painfully aware that her sanity was slipping away from her. She’d feared that she wouldn’t be able to raise her child, so she’d hoped to leave the baby in Profeta’s hands—or rather, her feet.

Profeta had ended up becoming little Alfrea’s caretaker. She’d grown up by her side like an older sister—(although if you asked Alfrea, she’d tell you that the turtle was simply her favorite pet).

One day, Eve had reached her breaking point.

She’d immediately fled as far as she could, hanging on to the last thread of sanity she’d had left to make sure she wouldn’t hurt her daughter.

Alfrea convinced herself that her mother had thrown her away, but the reality was a little different. Had Eve not left in time, she would most likely have turned against her greatest threat—the young Alfrea.

After her mother’s departure, Alfrea had discovered her mother’s true identity and all of the terrible deeds she’d committed. She’d resolved to stop her.

It was hard to say whether Alfrea had made that decision on her own or if the world had stirred her in the direction that suited it. Regardless of the reason, she’d carried Profeta—who soon became her favorite shield instead of her favorite pet—away and recruited comrades to help her fight the witch. Before long, she’d become strong enough to rival her.

She’d succeeded in defeating her once, but then she’d fallen for Eve’s tricks until it was too late.

Her mother had come back and sealed her, and with her out of the picture, Profeta had made her way to a large lake in the middle of the forest.
