Episode 4

Aria

I don't know where I am, but I feel a great warmth in my heart. I open my eyes and see that I am in a field full of flowers. Not far away, I see a white-wolf lying on the grass, but I wonder where I am??? Could it be that I am dead??

Then I see a very beautiful woman beside that white wolf, emitting a pale light and a gentle smile on her lips. She extends her hand to me, gesturing for me to come closer. Without hesitation, I walk towards her and she invites me to sit beside her. Being with her fills me with peace, who are you, I finally ask? Am I dead and is this paradise?

"My beautiful child, you are not dead, only asleep. I have been trying to communicate with you for a long time, but it hasn't been possible. But today, that barrier has finally been broken, and I can see you and caress your beautiful face, give you the comfort you deserve and have been asking for."

"I am Selene, the Moon Goddess, and you are one of my descendants, my little Aria. Come, join me for a walk."

I couldn't believe it, I was facing the Moon Goddess herself, and she was telling me that I was one of her descendants. I couldn't get over my astonishment. She invites me to walk with her, and I follow. Then I realize that the white wolf by her side also stands up and accompanies us. When it stands up, I can't believe it, that specimen is enormous, bigger than any I have ever seen in Sunshine. It must be over 3 meters tall. But that's not all, it emits a magnificent aura. Lost in my thoughts, the Moon Goddess tells me she will tell me a story, and I simply nod my head.

Moon Goddess

Long ago, when the earth was becoming populated and humanity was still very young, four brothers, with the fire of youth in their hearts, decided to go out in search of their fortune. One day, without much thought, they ventured forth, each carrying a backpack on their shoulders, in search of their Destiny.

They traveled the world together, always faithful to their blood bond. They found fortune, had made money beyond counting, and also acquired properties, always helping others.

But what their fortune couldn't give them was true love. They had been with many women, but none could give them that longed-for feeling. They were only approached by women interested in their money and power.

On a certain day, the four brothers decided to pray at the temple located on the highest mountain of the continent. That temple was dedicated to me. When they entered, I could sense the goodness of their hearts, but I could also feel the deep loneliness they harbored.

I appeared before them and told them that I would grant their heart's desire for having selflessly helped so many people. However, in order to do so, they would have to become my sons and take care of my creation. As honorable men, they agreed.

I addressed the eldest of the four, "My son, tell me your name."

Brother 1 lowered his head, "My lady, my name is William, and it would be a great honor for me to serve you."

"Dear William, you will take care of the wolf packs in the world. From today on, I will grant you a wolf different from the others, a white one as pure as snow, with strength and abilities equal only to the Alpha King. You will fight by its side to protect your kind. You will find your mate within their pack."

I extended my hand to his head, blessing him with one of my protective wolves, and immediately William's body transformed into a huge white wolf, which prostrated itself before me.

Then I turned my gaze to the second brother, who lowered his face and replied, "My lady, my name is Vladimir, and I am at your service."

"Dear Vladimir, you will protect the vampire clans. I will grant you strength and speed comparable only to the Vampire King. You will help him control and ensure peace among the clans. Within the territory of the Vampire King, you will find your soulmate."

I extended my hand over Vladimir and transferred the strength and speed, then his skin turned pale and his eyes changed color.

Now it's the turn of the third of you, but before I could say anything else, I heard.

"My lady, I am Magnus and I am at your service."

"You are always so cheerful, my dear Magnus, I will grant you part of my magic and you will be in charge of leading the coven of witches and wizards, they are still a young community and they need a leader."

"In the tower of wizards, you will find your destined one, you just have to go to her."

I extended my hand and granted Magnus the magic and gifts, and like his brothers, his eyes changed color.

And last but not least, there is you, my son.

"My lady, my name is Maximilian and it is a great honor to serve you."

"Maximilian, you are the youngest of the four and that is why I want to put you in charge of my youngest people, humanity, they are still impetuous but I know that with your guidance, they will become a great people. I will give you unique combat abilities and superior resistance to any human, and you will be a strategist like no other. You will return to your castle and from there you can rule, and soon you will meet your life companion."

I extended my hand and bestowed upon him the gifts, and his eyes changed color.

Once finished, I addressed the four of them, "Remember that the positions I have just given you do not put you above your brothers and that your descendants will inherit your gifts and responsibilities."

"Furthermore, despite being far apart and the passage of time, you will always be able to recognize your ties by the color of your eyes, which are Hazel."

And so, the four brothers set off on their new paths, making the oath that they will always serve the Moon Goddess and that their bonds will never be broken despite the distance and time.
