********************************************
3 weeks have passed since that day, lot of things have happened. Lots of things have changed in my life. Right now I’m moving through a deep forest east of Zuma, known as Akan Forrest. Miss Aby & her team took me under their wing, I was to follow them to their destination & then they will see what to do next. Frankly I was a little surprised when they told me to join them or rather Javel picked me up & ordered me to do so. Let me tell you, up-close he’s very scary...so I joined their expedition. Ever since that day Miss Aby would nag me & hit me on my head for no reason what so ever. I think that being pretty gives her some kind of right to hit me...*smack*...what??
Aby: “Come with me, boy.”
Me: “Why? Where?” *smack*
Aby: “Don’t ask unnecessary questions & quietly follow me.”
Me (rubbing my left hand on my head): “Yes Miss Aby...”
Lot of things happened after Elder died. I was bombarded with questions like “What were you thinking?” “From where did you get that weapon?” “How did you move so fast?” “What are you?” “What Rank are you?”....I mean so many questions...my head was spinning.
Finally getting cleaned from all that blood, I felt quite nice or peace whichever sounds good. I saw my reflection on the mirror. I was at a loss...I look completely different from any Zumas I have seen or met. I have a red slit pupil on white eyes, two short horns with black tip, light red body complexion with black streaks on my shoulder. I was also close to 5’8-9 ft tall. What is this appearance? Only one way to find out “Status”.

After cleaning up, I went to the Council hall to listen to the will Elder left me...of course my new guardians came with me as well...they said that they were just going to talk with Councilwoman Je’Lec about my situation but I know better...they want to know what how much fortune did Elder left me with... *smack* ahhh...
Me: “What?”
Aby: “You were thinking something bad about us...weren’t you??” small grin forming in the corner of her slender lips.
Me: “No...No...Absolutely not...how could I!?”I smiled innocently at her.
Aby: “Remember Boy...you are still inexperienced...everything you think or do will be known to us instantly...be careful...this forest is pretty dense...” her grin got mixed with her sharp eyes turning into one hell of a scary face.
Me: “Yes...I understand...Miss Aby.” looking down towards the earth.
Aby: “Now hurry up; we don’t have a lot of time.”
Upon reaching the Council hall, I met the Councilwoman, talked to her for a little bit. She was quiet shocked to see me...well everyone was so no big deal. Then handed me a paper & told me to sign it. It was Elder’s will. After reading & signing it she handed me a small triangular crystal, black in colour. She told me to drop some blood on a part of the crystal. I did what she told me, a screen came appeared.
ENTER THE DOCUMENT CODE:

Seeker
The Gods are dead As they bled dry, so did the magic which gave them birth. In the new era of technology, its pathetic remnants must hide in the shadows or be locked away. In the ancient era of magic two beings often stood out: Galileo, an immortal scholar obsessed with knowledge and Angelica, the most loyal servant of the greatest among the now dead Gods. But why are they worthy of mention? Because after millennia of isolation, the two emerge in the new world beyond their reckoning. The entire story is told from the third person, however, each chapter will be told from the perspective of only one of the characters. This will be signified by the first letter of their names after the chapter number to avoid confusion. I submitted this fiction as a [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] as well as a participant in National Novel Writing Month. The original challenge had been to finish this entire faction within the month of November reaching the 55.5k word minimum. This goal had been achieved. I do not own the cover picture
