Chapter 7 : The Forgotten Tale

Mia and Tink who was very nervous went in the direction of the sun room

I looked at her and said "Bellaire, why did he call you that. She said every child born in the Royal family is given a special name by a seer , the given name is then recorded in the family book of the Royal's . even if I am not in the direct line of the royalty what would have happened if I had enrolled with that name . I thought about all the disaster would have happened and said" yeah I can imagine it could have been a disaster" .after sometime I looked at her and said " should I call you my lady or princess Bellaire" . she sharply turned towards me with the look of horror and said "please !! don't call me that you are my best friend call me with the name you call me . "

As we are better around sooner than later we reach the destination room and take a deep breath She knocks loudly on the door from the other side of the door and we slightly open the door and peeked into the room.

there was an elegant lady sitting near a picture window. she looked like a goddess adorned with silk and jewelry. it may look like I am exaggerating but if you were in my place you would have been saying the same because believe it or not she really look like an Goddesses or for close reference a goddess from a portrait.

As we entered the room she looked up from her work and beamed at us. She had such a shine in her smile that for a moment I had to squint through that much of shine. She got up from her place and walked towards us. As soon as she got closer to us, she took a hold of Tink's ear and said "what did I hear about the incident from the morning ".

"Mom I just wanted to make some breakfast and don't want to depend on anyone just for making my meals. I always make Mia cook for us just because I can't cook "

Oh, my sweet child, if you don't want to bother anyone for food should I hire a cook for you, we have many cooks take the one you want.

No mom she looked down and said I just want to cook some food and feel the sense of accomplishment.

"Should I show you how to cook, it's not that hard" I called out from behind.

"But didn't you see what happened this morning" She looked like she was about to cry again.

I thought for a moment and said" it doesn't have to be cooked "

Tink's mom looked at me and said "Doesn't have to be cooked? How? ”

I looked at her and said it can be no -bake cakes for example or no - bake food. ”

Tink's face brightens up just by hearing that" do u think I can do that "

I shrug my shoulder "maybe, we have to see if you can do it "

Tink runs up to me and hugs me so hard I think I heard some of my bones crack. Did I mention that Tink is a hugger.

"Thank you" I Pat her back to let her lose her hold on me.

"Sorry." Tink sheepishly says as she frees me her tight hug.

"Mom this is Mia, Mia this is my mom Elaine DeLuca "

"Pleasure to me meet you m" " I greet her. Mrs DeLuca does something very familiar and unexpected. She comes up to me and gives me a big nice hug. Except for the bone crushing hugs from Tink I really don't have the experience of hugging someone else. Tink might have taken the hug characteristics from her mother.

"Don't be so formal Dear, you are family to us, call me by my name will you"

"Ok Mrs Elaine” I responded to her request.

"Come let's take a seat and talk" She holds both of our hands and takes us to the table where she was working on something when we entered.

As we get seated a maid comes up and serves us tea. I take a cup of tea and take a sip. The tea was very pleasant. It had a slight fruity tangy taste followed with sweet and a refreshing after-taste. I took another sip, and it had a slight flowery note in it too. I looked at Mrs Elaine and said" you have an excellent tea blend here. "

She turns to me "did you like it,it is from my hometown. It always reminds me of home all warm and comforting ".

"This tea blend is excellent Mrs Elaine, it's very comforting in nature" I say as I take another sip of this unknown tea blend.

"Say Mia are you interested in History" Mrs Elaine says without looking up from her papers.

"Why yes Mrs Elaine I do "

"Mom don't believe her when she says that did you know she is a history major with a minor in mythology and scripture" Tink speaks up.

Mrs Elaine smiles and hands me over the papers she was reading and says" will you can, you tell me what is written in it" I take the papers from her hand and look at the contents in there were pictures of some kind of scriptures written in very different languages which I knew.

I look at her and say this language is not of the language I have known, is it some kind of language of any lost civilization which hasn't been told to the public. She smiles and says "you can say a lost Civilization, but it would be correct to say a lost family line .

"I have heard that you are just inform that you have some magic energy of your own but don't know what kind of you are.So you might not know this, but every family has they are own language to keep their secrets protected from their enemies in case they still get in those secrets it might be some family spell or if they are a military family line then military secrets or if there are royal family then they have their own secrets which is protected with their life. "

"These scriptures that you are seeing are of very similar kinds of Secrets of a lost family line which were assassinated just because they were very powerful . it was said that they were totally different kind of people because they had their own different kind of flavor to their magic, and they didn't have to any kind of spell. You see every other magic user has to recite an incantation for every spell but magic comes to them very naturally due to which they attract the wrong kind of people which lead to their demise. "

Mrs Elaine continues " it was said that does secrets or the spells this family used was being written by a high class Mage who was killed by their enemy, but the Mage's magic did something very different it got absorbed by the very book he was writing, and the book became a sentinel. the sentinel book wrote every thing and vanished before The enemy took a hold of it. "

" Well that's the tale of the unfortunate family line "

Mrs Elaine says by taking the papers from me." "well mom which family is this, and why haven't I heard of it " tink asks.

"you see everything we know about the families in today's world was due to the fear of getting assassinated when this family was uprooted. it was so horrifying that all the family heads rushed to each other seeking for allies. After a period of discussion It was decided that some information like General information like the family members or what or who they were. After it became public then it was made into common knowledge that to teach the future generation about the families but the family book which was being written by the mage which vanished was never to be found again .As the generations passed people forgot about the family. Few who were in hiding changed their identity and left and started living in other distant realms. "
