A Mermaid's Legacy- Sebastian Sallow x MC x Ominis Gaunt

Chapter 51- Divinity

"I am not just a part of you," the divine presence within me spoke gently, "but you are now a part of me, as has been the way with every queen before you. We are intertwined, inseparable in the tapestry of life."

In those words, I felt a profound connection to the heavens and to all the queens who had come before me. It was as if we shared a singular existence, bound together by a timeless and unbreakable thread that wove through the very fabric of existence itself.

Sebastian POV

I found myself utterly entranced, unable to tear my gaze away from her ethereal presence.

"Yvaine?" I ventured hesitantly, my voice trembling with uncertainty, not knowing what to expect from this otherworldly encounter.

The being turned its gaze toward me, its movements graceful and otherworldly as it swam closer. I gripped Ominis hand tightly, a mix of awe and apprehension washing over me.

With a voice that carried the resonance of the divine, the being gently reached for our hands as it began to speak, and its words carried a weight beyond comprehension. "It is I, but also a new facet of my existence," it explained.

The being's words echoed with cosmic wisdom as it continued, "My beloveds, it was destined that our hearts would intertwine. Such was written in the celestial tapestry of existence. Yet, mankind often succumbs to their own greed, and I wonder, perhaps were we meant to be a whisper in time rather than an epic odyssey?"

Ominis, his frustration and heartache bared, responded with a profound sense of longing,

"Yvaine is not merely a whisper in my life. If she were a whisper, then she was the one that whispered to my shattered soul, a gentle, persistent melody. Every second, every moment spent with her has woven enchantment into my existence in ways I could never have imagined. She has etched an enduring mark upon my heart!"

"She is ... Yvaine, you are the very essence of my heart's deepest desires. If you were a whisper, you'd be the sweetest melody that has ever graced our souls. Each second, every moment spent by your side has been a journey through a world of wonder I never knew existed,

Every word, every touch, every shared emotion with you... You've not only saved me, but you've made me whole in ways I couldn't fathom. Please, allow us to be with you, to cherish you as you've cherished us," I implored.

"She is a queen, and you are mere mortal wizards. No amount of magic can ever alter that truth. You might well meet your end while she carries on. How can you ensure her protection?...

Nevertheless, as a gesture of mercy, I can erase your memories of her.....relieve you of the agony," the ethereal being proclaimed.

"The last time someone attempted to erase our pain, it resulted in catastrophe for us," I cautioned.

"We... We wish to remember, if you'll allow it," Ominis said sorrowfully. "Even if it's for a brief time compared to her life. I never want to forget her."

"Is there truly no other option? We love her with every fiber of our being, with every breath we take, every beat of our hearts has been for her, even before we realized it ourselves," I pleaded.

Seconds passed like endless years until the being finally responded.

"Very well... I can sense that it's also her deepest wish even if she cannot.

So, let us forge a solemn vow to ensure the safety of the Realm and to protect Yvaine....

an unbreakable vow," the ethereal being spoke.

Ominis and I looked at each other with surprise but undoubtedly extended our right arms toward one another as the being began to weave the spell around us.

"Will you, Sebastian Sallow and Ominis Gaunt, vow to protect Yvaine Seraphine with your lives? Will you vow to love and cherish her until your very last breaths? Will you vow to help her carry out her divine tasks first and foremost and above all things?" the being intoned, its words carrying the weight of eternity.

"We will," we stated with unwavering resolution, our voices echoing with the profound commitment that had bound us together, an unbreakable bond of love and duty that would endure for all our lives.

"Very well," the being acknowledged. It completed the spell and, to our surprise, placed its hands on our third eye placements. It began to chant a mysterious incantation that we did not recognize.

As the incantation reached its conclusion, the being's radiant form slowly transformed into the Yvaine we had cherished and adored. Her exquisite amethyst eyes glistened with recognition as she beamed at us.

Yet, her joy swiftly dimmed as she lost consciousness.
