《Always There》27. Jem
Advertisement
Henry, Rylee, Mom, and I arrived at Ms. Stanley's grave. Henry, using a flashlight, saw Gem sleeping in the tree. Yes, sleeping in the tree. I know it's a bit weird, but she's asleep.
Henry climbs up and carries Gem down. Mom felt her forehead. She was so scared that she didn't have time to be mad. I mean, she was really freaking out.
"She is freezing," she squealed. When we got in the car, Mom held her very close as Rylee drove us home. I can't stop looking at Mom. She was really scared.
When we return home, I headed for the door. Mom carried Gem to her bed. "Mom, she'll be fine."
"We don't know yet."
I went to bed. At the same time, I was hoping that Gem didn't get a cold. The look on Mom's face gave me the same feeling: fear.
Once Mom laid her down, she stroked Gem's bangs. She smiled at her. Mom got up to leave her alone.
"Mom?"

Ethan is tired of living on the Tiburon, a merchant ship that travels the waves of the Four Great Seas of the Continent. His innate nature, which from childhood made him immeasurably appreciate the stories of magicians and warlords of ancient times, pushes him to search for greater stability on the mainland, starting from where he could begin to travel to unexplored areas and respond to his irrepressible curiosity. Garatier seems like the right city to start over and just Garatier and the individuals that Ethan will meet there, will allow him to enter the tunnels of an ancient, hidden, forgotten world that yet has always been there. However, the way in which The Hand of Fate moves the threads of destiny is unpredictable and as often happens, not everything will go according to Ethan's plans because, ultimately, no one can oppose Fate.
