I watched the world burned. I watch her face as life drained away from her. I screamed in utter fear as she faded away. I cried and cried holding her. Telling her all that I wanted. All I know, all the things that kept me from protecting her gone like smoke clearing. Quickly all of them shred away. People rush to see the damage done but they do not see. They think a child was killed by some mugger in the night. But I know she knew. I cried when they pulled me off her. My family does nothing. My only hope is to bring her back..
"She will not be brought back" my father told me. I snarl and I hiss.
"Are you drunk?! You tell me your grandchild is nothing to you?! You have all these grandchildren who are nothing but newborns but your successful grandchild the one that I loved. And hid to protect her. Is the one you won't bring back?!" I hissed. My father said nothing. "I resent you. I resent all of those that you believe will do everything, I know what you fear too. To lose. You don't want to lose anything, well you lost. You lost my respect, my love, and your grandchild. I lost as well I lost my child, my future, and my legacy. You can deny me of what I had, and what she told me is this, 'what a person gives to another is only a measure of a person's love for that other' I know that you don't understand that you're too drunk to remember what I've said. And you only remember what drink you need to feel content" I hissed. I turned and felt heat trickle down my neck. I turned and looked at my father. I smiled and sighed.
"If she were here she'd tell me forgive you. But, that small fact that she's not here is the only reason that I don't burn this place to the ground is because Lilly loved this place. She grew up here and trained and enjoyed life here. It's the only reason for sparing you and the others especially my sister whom you and the others listen to without care not ever concerned about who you hurt and how you do it" I snarled out. The days that followed were quiet as pre orders, the others had decided to mourn Lilly differently. Atlas and Asako spent their days drinking and training their bodies to utter exhaustion. I spent my days swimming in the ice cold pools of my own world. No one stopped me. My spirit crushed. I knew that my own natural needs were problematic. I ate small amount that filled me. I went straight back to my pools. I lost more than I intended. Atlas and Asako came to my world, they looked ripped and tired. I brought them in. We spoke and laughed. Soon all of those that Lilly touched came. We all told our story. We all cried and laughed. We showed our love for her in the dragon burial. We took her body in the place from which she was born. We prayed in hopes she'd hear us. We set gifts we wish for her to remember us by and set it ablaze for it to be sent to the eternal lands. All of us set a small token, Atlas a small dagger he had given her as a child. Asako set down a stuffed dragon. He gave it to her the day she turned four. I set down something no one understood why it was what I chose but I set it down,
"Her... mug.. she never stopped using it after I gave to her when she was ten" Atlas said softly. I sobbed as I set it down. He hugged me. I sighed and wiped my tears. I used a blue flame and set the pile of offerings ablaze. I watched the mug disappear with the blaze. I smile as lillies with blood red petals grow around the blaze. I noticed the forest demons growing them. More and more forest demons appear some to bring kindling the other to offer to her. I cried and ran to Anamion as he grew a large beautiful ring of stargazers lilies. He hugged me back slightly crying. I knew that Lilly and him were good friends when Lilly began to use her earth magic was when their bond turned better and better. I cried into his chest. I saw Mephisto as he set the flowers to never die but stay young till he died. I sobbed as he smiled and enveloped me and Anamion into a hug. I cried louder and louder. He pulled a handkerchief and began to wipe my face. I sighed and blew into the handkerchief. He smiled and rubbed my face. I burn the infected handkerchief to ashes. I sighed and looked at the smoke. The smoke spread to all corners of the demon kingdoms. For months the smoke drifted past and settled on to the gardens of the demon flame king and his queen. Queen Yuri had been picking flowers when she had noticed the soot begin to fall. The queen returned inside and began to prepare to visit her mourning daughter. Unknown to the king the queen fled under the cover of night to the water demon place. The soot had caused nearby plants to rapidly grow at exponential rates. She smiled the wreath of Lillies andRose's. The queen smiled knowing her stepsons had helped her youngest step daughter. She lifted her hand to knock but the door opened.
"Your Majesty, a honor to stand in your presence" the butler said. She nodded and walked in. She saw how clean the place looked. Barely any of the large paintings of past owners damaged or destroyed. One had been badly burned, Yuri had looked almost shooked. "My mistress never wanted me to have her home in such a disarray as it was the first days, she had stayed in her room for the first of my. But she did eat and then she went and soaked in the ice pools out in the mountains only coming in to eat with the servants and I stating that everyone is mourning and we should eat together" he said. My daughter emerged from the kitchen a freshly backed cake in hand.
"Oh hello Yuri" she said.
"Hello Blue how are you doing?" I asked.
"I'm better. Everyone that came to her funeral stayed a few nights after to help me and themselves take the edge off. So many questions but so little time" she said. She looked thinner but a bit uneasy, Yuri thought.
"I had to sneak away to see you, I was worried about you till I saw the soot on the flowers in our garden" she said.
"Ah yes. Sorry we hadn't expected that from the funeral.. we knew that it be seen for miles but I didn't know that it would extend farther than the Water and Ice Kingdoms" I said softly. Yuri smiled.
"I see. You seem to be doing well" she said. "With that in mind Ishall take my leave" Yuri turned quickly grabbed her hand.
"Stay.. please dinner at least. The others would appreciate it" I said.
