Ashes of the Forgotten : Rewritten History

Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Confrontation



Sylvren headed north through the storms and the cold wind trying to find answers about his origins and the questions he had kept in his heart and all he had was the information that Isenor gave him about their place, and a photo of them that he had when he was young, as his questions were getting the best out of him, he stumbled upon comrades of the black rose beating a young girl from Eloria, she cried begging them to leave her, Sylvren stopped, his voice cut through, and saying: "as your general, I command you to stop and leave the place this second". The comrades froze and told him that girl was from Eloria, then Sylvren said: "and I am from Eloria", the comrades thought to themselves that If they killed the general, that they might get a chance to become generals so they drew their swords, as they did this, in a split second, Sylvren drew his sword, taking off their heads in a second as blood filled the place, he told the little girl to go behind him on the horse, the girl believed that Sylvren was her savior, Sylvren marched forward not looking back, in seconds, he crossed what people cross in months. He arrived to his parents place, it was a palace surrounded by black rose soldiers, he gave a check book to one of the soldiers and get the girl what she wanted and keep her safe as he is the general of the army, the soldier obeyed without further questions, as blood was all over Sylvren, he busted the door of the castle open, then Vareth said in extreme anger: "who are you to bust open the door, I am Vareth and Don't you dare step a step into the palace"

Sylvren stepped forward calmly, his eyes locked on the man, he didn't blink, and said: "so you haven't forgotten about me, have you, father."

Vareth froze, looking at the hair, the eyes, it is the same as his young boy when he left him: "no way, how did you find us" and shouted "Anna come here"

Sylvren: "I am here for some questions, nothing more nothing less"

Anna came from upstairs, the scene where Sylvren soaked in blood, in front of Vareth, she ran down the stairs, trying to hug her son, but Sylvren pushed her away saying: "you don't have the right to call me your son or hug after you have abandoned me for all these years"

Anna froze, but she understood that Sylvren was here for answers only.

Vareth eyes locked on Sylvren saying: "so you to kill us or avenge yourself or any of this"

Sylvren still staring at Vareth and Anna: "if there is something that I have learned from Isenor it would be that I have to think about every chance, every opportunity, and not let my emotions drive me into my demise, I came here for answers only"

Vareth: "understood, take a seat, and shall we resume this conversation"

Sylvren: "first question, why did you abandon me"

Anna: "we didn't want you to follow our dangerous path, we wanted you to have a normal life, have family and kids"

Sylvren voice raised up: "and let all the people see me as a nobody, the son of the traitors, a one that is doomed for life"

Anna crying: "that was our best option at that time, after we betrayed Kirael, do you know the real story or should we tell you"

Sylvren narrowed his eyes: "Isenor told me, now the second question why did you betray Kirael"

Vareth: "Isenor promised that Peace shall be for both Eloria and Durnkhall, and that he had to assemble all the pieces that are needed for eternal peace"

Sylvren: "third and last question, I have a girl that came with me, and I can't take her back with, could you take care of her"

Vareth: "Sylvren, who are your parents"

Sylvren glanced at them: "my mom was the one who took care of me, who believed in me, Maya and Isenor renamed me as his son, his heir"

Vareth: "Sylvren, don't trust every word Isenor says, and you are free to what to do, if you don't trust me, and for the girl we will take care of her"

Sylvren left to get the girl and told her that she would live as a princess in this place, the girl was so happy, she hugged Sylvren, Sylvren didn't know how to react, a tear fell, he didn't know why, then he left to the central residence of the black rose.
