While looking at the Heartstone; 'ᛏᚺᛖᚢ ᚹᛁᛚᛚ ᚾᛖᚹᛖᚱ ᛏᚱᚢᛚᚢ ᚢᚾᛞᛖᚱᛊᛏᚨᚾᛞ ᛟᚢᚱ ᚲᛁᚾ ᚹᛁᛚᛚ ᛏᚺᛖᚢ?' 'ᛁᛏ ᚨᛚᛚ ᛞᛖᛈᛖᚾᛞᛊ ᛟᚾ ᛁᚠ ᛃᛟᚢ ᛚᛖᛏ ᛞᛟᚹᚾ ᛃᛟᚢᚱ ᚹᚨᛚᛚᛊ ᛏᛟ ᛚᛖᛏ ᛏᚺᛖᛗ ᛁᚾ ᛏᛟ ᛊᛖᛖ ᚦᛖ ᛏᚱᚢᛏᚺ ᚠᛟᚱ ᛏᚺᛖᛗᛊᛖᛚᚹᛖᛊ, ᛗᚢ ᛚᚨᛞᚢ.'
(They will never truly understand our kin will they?' 'It all depends on if you let down your walls to let them in to see the truth for themselves, my lady).'

The Heartstone glows back in reply to my question and I sigh not truly knowing if I should let my walls down. I feel someone's hand on my left shoulder and before I could tell myself not to; I flinch. Looking to my left I notice that it was Blinky who looks concerned and I just say "I am not used to others who aren't kin... or well any contact thats not from my kin."

Aaarrrgghh looks sad while the other two are confused and Blinky asks "Who is part of your kin Mitzu?" I smile sadly, but pull out my hidden side satchel and rummage through it. Finally I find it; pulling out a very old photo album of those I call kin. I hand the photo album to Blinky carefully and say with a smile "These photographs are of all those who I gladly call kin." Flicking through a few pages I come to a photograph of my little brother, his mate, my son and me all smiling in it. In the photo next to it is all thirteen devine beings and me.

We are all in our Devine Being forms at the time when the photo was taken. I then tell Blinky "They are my true kin; my little brother; Lujang (Loo-jang) and his mate; Kushala (Cu-sha-la) with my son; Durezen (Do-row-zen). It was a special day for Durezen... He was turning five years old at the time. In the photo below it is... all thirteen devine beings and me." Aaarrrgghh then asks from looking over Blinky's shoulder "What happened?"

Losing my smile; looking down to the ground on my right as I reply "Well... I don't want to talk about what happened to the thirteen, but I will about Lujang... Not even a few days after this photograph was taken... my little brother, Durezen's uncle and Kushala's mate was killed by the last demon on Earths soil; *growls* The Demon Prince while he was protecting some young, foolish trolls that were out wandering Arcadia... I tried all I could to save him,... but nothing worked."

Tears are cascading down my face as I closed my eyes while folding my ears slightly. Yet all I see is Lujang dying in my arms again and again; I feel four arms wrap around me. Opening my eyes in shock; only to see Blinky hugging me then Aaarrrgghh comes over and scoops us both up in his arms. I blush; however thankfully they can't see it. Looking away only to see another young teenage troll in the entryway.

My blush dissipates slowly and I tilt my head to the left while watching the young troll. Aaarrrgghh then puts us down and Blinky releases me with a slight blush. They take notice of where my attention is and turn to see the young troll. Kanjigar then introduces him "Mitzu meet my son; Draal." I blink as my vision becomes clouded; I feel someone's arms wrap around me, but then I am pulled into a vision.

Vision Starts

My vision starts to come back and I find myself in the Arcadia's museum. Looks to be the basement, parts of the Killahad bridge are being reassembled there. Two changlings enter and Bular jumps down to meet them. They talk about trying to get the amulet from the trollhunter by using two humans to get his attention. They hope he will come; so they can open the bridge when it's finished.

The place changes from Arcadia's museums basement to show Kanjigar and Bular fighting deep in Arcadia's forest. Bular had just got a hit on Kanjigar and as time passes; he gets weaker. Kanjigar was then hit by the suns light from above the trees. He is turned to stone right where he was standing; forcing Bular to leap away and leave the place; as well as the amulet behind.

Time passes by and two young boys stumble across Kanjigar stone form. I get a look at the boys and gasp as I see Durezen (in human form) with his friend Toby. The amulet then calls out... at first it says Durezen Cugatalisteo but it changes to Jim Lake. It says Jim Lake twice before my son picks it up. The area around me changes once more to form a different place.

Looking around I notice that I am in the middle of the canal on the outskirts of Arcadia. A blur of black to my left catches my attention and I turn towards it. Only to see both Bular and Gunmar standing over many trolls and humans. To my horror I see my only son adorn the trollhunter armour and summon Daylight to wield.

I watch on frozen in terror as he charges at Bular and Gunmar. Many trolls have been turned to stone while a great many humans have been killed.
My vision then falls to darkness....

Vision Ends

My eyelids feel heavy as I open them to reveal my bright electric blue glowing eyes. I notice that I am half on the ground and half being held by four arms. Lifting my gaze I see Kanjigar and the others are worried. From behind me; Blinky asks "Are you alright?" As he talks; I feel my back vibrate a little as he holds me up. I glance back to Blinky and slowly reply "I am fine Blinky; just... a slight vision or perhaps three meshed together as one... that I need to figure out... It's nothing too serious to worry about. It is very normal for me to get or recieve visions."

He looks like he doesn't believe that and Vendel asks "What was your vision about?" I sigh silently, then look towards him and reply "I cannot disclose what it is fully about; however it brings to me great fear for my son's life and his future should this vision come to pass..." My gaze never wavers from Vendel, Kanjigar asks "Which one is your son?" I turn my gaze to Kanjigar then to Blinky and motion for the photo album that was left on the seat near us. Blinky grabs it and hands it to me carefully; I motion for Kanjigar to come closer.

He does so and I show him the photograph that I had previously shown Blinky. I point to Durezen and tell Kanjigar with a small smile "That is my son; Durezen... He is very much like his father in a lot of aspects." Draal had slowly crept forward to look as well, but still kept his distance while Vendel had come over to look. Vendel asked "Who is your mate?" I look up to Vendel in surprise, but it soon turns to sadness.

My gaze goes back to the photo as a few tears slipped down my cheeks and I answered softly "My mate and I used to meet up in secret... A very long time ago, *sigh* but one day he never showed up... I never even got the chance to tell him that he was going to be a father..." The tears that fell crystalized just before they hit the ground; causing them to make noise like that of glass breaking.
