Episode 1
Priestess
A little have known about the mystery of eternal life. The people who are after those mysteries end up losing their lives before time. Go back child even I the priestess of high have no knowledge. This world has put shackles and limits to what a human being can know and discover. There is no beyond. We do not have capacity to reach on the other side except bringing doom to one’s own self.
Rosa
Liar you are a liar…. It doesn’t explain what happened to my parents. If there is no truth in this story. If there is nothing such as eternal life why would they chase it. I know my parents are still somewhere there. She said it with a painful low tone.
Priestess
They were fool child and they have paid the price. High priestess have nothing else for you… priestess said it politely.
Rosa
How long you will hide it from me.
Priestess
You may leave now Rosa. Priestess looked at Rosa with sympathy.
Rosa
Yes I should go now thank you for your time high priestess. There was pain in her words and eyes. Which can be seen easily. She is desperate one can tell from the look of her expression. She left the room.
Poor child there is nothing you can do or any of us. She listened the words of high priests coming from her back and she whispered to herself, yes I can do and I will. If that’s my destiny so be it.
Philly
Why you go to her again and again..
Philly
You promised me to go to the market together. I waited almost one hour.
Rosa
I am sorry. I was so worried about my dream I forgot about it.
Rosa
Don’t give me this look this time it was different.
Philly
It’s all in your head. Everyone knows you are having it hard and we are all here to help. Let’s walk home together and you can tell me about it.
Rosa
You don’t understand I know everyone is here to help but I need answers and I don’t want to go home yet
Philly
Hmmm. You will get them one day. You just have to be patient.
Rosa
How? What if my dreams are the answers but high priestess is avoiding it. She is shutting me down. She have all the answers but she pretends like nothing happened. My parents were so close to her and she don’t even care what happened to them.
Philly
Hey stop crying now mom will be sad if she sees you like that.
Rosa
That’s why I don’t want to go home yet
Philly
Hm how about take a longer route this time sitting in the Montessori won’t help and we can talk about what was different this time.
Rosa
Sure. After wiping her tears she looked at Philly and said, thank you for always being there for me. I don’t know how to thank you and aunt Sara. You guys are taking care of me for such a long time
Philly
Hey stop it. You are part of our family. It feels so weird I am having creeps you know.
Philly
Let’s start from priestess what she said this time. What kind of response she had
Rosa
Same. Mystery talk, that she doesn’t know anything. She values me etc.
Philly
What was different this time… in your dreams
Rosa
I saw mountains water and it was nothing like before like ruins. Some one call me by my name and as I look behind there was no one. It felt real. I felt so scared and you know what was most scary…
Rosa
You won’t believe it I felt it in real life like someone whispered something in my ear it was so close and I opened my eyes. But i felt for seconds who ever it was, was still there.
Philly
I don’t know why you so restless these days. May be you should listen to the priestess and stop thinking about them. I mean at least for sometime and trust me you will start feeling better
Rosa
I didn’t expect that from you. I thought we are friends. You said you understand me. You will support me no matter what.
Philly
When did I said I am not supporting you. I am just saying. What if you are having all those dreams because you are thinking about it all the time.
Rosa
You think I am making it up mixing my reality with my imaginations and making them up
Philly
No. No way. I didn’t say that. I believe your dreams have meanings but indulging too much into it can put you in harm. Let the destiny take its course it’s nothing we can do. For example, sometimes you see fire all around and someone shouting your name again and again but it’s not your name you never have listened that name before. Also you see war arrows swords and someone is asking you to run away and now someone is calling you. Personally I don’t see any big difference in those dreams.
Rosa
I know you guys think I am crazy. Every day I come up with something new to bother you guys but I can’t take it off of my mind.
Philly
No we don’t think that. We love you dearly. We just trying to help you solve this mystery in your mind
Rosa
By shutting me off. By telling me ignore what my mind is telling me. By forgetting my parents.
Philly
No. Oh my please stop crying. I am with you no matter what happens. I believe you if no one else does.
Rosa
If you do believe me than why not support me to go to town. There is a person who can interpret the dreams. If you are with me why you don’t take me there.
Philly
Who ever tell you about this is lying. No one can interpret the dreams better than high priestess. You know better than me people from far just come here to pay the visit so they can learn things which are not available anywhere in the world. Don’t you think it would be an insult if her own student try to find someone else.
Rosa
That’s the thing I don’t trust her she is hiding something from me.
Philly
You know at this point I just can say that you need to be patient. Everything have it’s own time to happen. You will get all your answers with time. Ok. Let’s finish this topic here it will be dark soon and we have chosen the longer way to home. There are strange rumors going on around the village. We aren’t supposed to be staying out for that late.
Rosa
I am not going to rely on high priestess anymore. I am going to solve it by myself.
Philly
Really and how you going to do that
Rosa
I have sent the letter to the city. I will have my answer soon.
Philly
What? You have done what?
Rosa
I can’t wait anymore. It’s been ten years. I don’t want to be crazy ok
Philly
What have you done Rosa? How and when you did this?
Rosa
Three months ago. Brother Daniel he was going to the city to buy some merchandise. He said will deliver my letter to the dream teller.
Philly
What did you write in the letter?
Rosa
Why are you so angry at me?
Philly
Rosa you can’t imagine what a grave mistake have you done.
Philly
We have to go back to the Montessori right now
Rosa
But we are already near home. Why we need to go back. Could you please tell me what’s wrong. You are scaring me.
Philly
We need to tell this to high priestess before something bad happens ok
Rosa
What are you talking about? I will never tell this to priestess. She will never let me go there.
Philly
Exactly that’s the point Rosa. You are not supposed to go anywhere nor should anyone ever know about you.
Rosa
Why? What are you talking about. You are scaring me now. I won’t go with you back there. I want to go home.
Philly
We can’t go home. No where is safe anymore until we investigate everything. You have to stay until then in the Montessori. That’s the only safe place. Trust me.
Rosa
No. I don’t understand what’s wrong with you. Why are you suddenly acting all mysterious. Leave my hand I am not going with you. I am saying stop it right now. Leave me.
Rosa
Why he is acting like that why is he forcing me to go back to the Montessori. I have never seen him like that before
Rosa
Phill you have to stop ok I am not going with you anywhere until you tell me what’s wrong ok
Philly
I promise I will tell you everything when we reach there
Rosa
He is holding my hand tightly I don’t know how to lose his grip. As long as I remember he was always so kind and gentle guy. Who always taken care of me as family. He has always protected me. But today it looks like I don’t know him at all. This furious behavior. Just because I send a letter to someone he is taking me to high priestess, like have committed a sin.
Rosa
I don’t know why I am scared my heart is aching. This person who can’t see even a single tear in my eye letting me cry and he doesn’t care.
Rosa
Phill stop. Please stop I am begging you.
Rosa
Finally he stopped but before he can say anything, something very sharp pierced in my shoulder. And I fell on my knees. Same time a arrow pierced throw Phil’s chest. It was so sudden. I saw him felling down. I can see how scared and worried he is for me.
Philly
Run Rosa. Run to the Montessori…
Rosa
The pain was so sharp that I fell to the ground and everything darkened before my eyes. The only thing I was able to think is that I am dying. For what ever reason I became the cause for the death of both of us and no one will ever know what happened to us.
