Unconsciously, Xhemin held onto her stomach even when she knew there was nothing in there. It was impossible that she was pregnant because Darryl had been declared impotent in the mainland, so was all the Lagdameo because of the staw tea that Dian had let them drink for years.

Her handmaiden knew this and so were her close friends and family in the Manggan Island so they all quieted at this revelation. They knew it was hard for the couple to accept that they can no longer have any children aside from Willow and Wolfe and so they thought what Illa Durray said might stir some hurt and bitterness in their midst.

"Healer, did you bleed?" Maru, who could not stand the lingering silence, broke it.

Her question drew Xhemin from her thoughts back to reality and she answered as honestly as she could, "It's not my due yet but I don't think I am pregnant," She then turned to Illa Durray and bowed to her with great respect. "Illa Durray I meant to offense but my husband and I had long accepted we can no longer have other children. As you see, my husband had been poisoned in the mainland and the effect of the poison caused him some trouble,"

"But your husband took the cure," Illa Durray answered confidently. The first time she saw a vision concerning Darryl, things were a bit unclear but now that both the couple were here, she had seen more to it. "Hero...tell your wife you took the cure. Princess Lana offered it and you took it,"

Xhemin turned to Darryl immediately. Hearing Princess Lana's name only made her blood boil again and the revelation that he indeed took something from Princess Lana made her want to pinch him hard. What was this thing he took from her?"

"Is the thing she offered me the cure?" Darryl suddenly became interested. He had really no plans on joining in the conversation as he was there only to accompany his wife but hearing the old woman saying her wife was pregnant got him all warmed up. Perhaps Xhemin indeed was right, perhaps he should learn to listen to old women's tales and words sometimes.

"I am a seer not a healer," Illa Durray met his eyes head on. She was aware of his doubts but the very first time she saw him, he knew he bore the glory of the title the Somer Isle gave them. He was a hero. "Your wife is the best person to confirm whether it was the cure or not,"

"I see," Darryl thought she was right. Indeed Xhemin can check whether it was indeed the cure or not as she was the only person in the Manggan Island who had the skills in scientific research. Now more curious and already willing to listen, he stepped forward to where the old woman seated to inquire a little further. He also dragged Xhemin with her, wanting to let Illa Durray see her more. "Illa Durray, can you see how many children will be born next spring to me and my wife?"

"Only one. I can only see one bridge," She replied. "However the next will be many,"

"So there will be next?" A smile went on his lips.

Illa Durray gave Darryl a smile. "Hero, each birth of your household was tied to the blood brothers you made on our island. The number of blood you drank to tie the brotherhood will also be the number of births in your house. These births will take place each time a blood will unify with another to form as one,"

The old woman's words reminded Darryl of the old Chieftana Ari and her riddle. However no matter how complex the words were, he understood it right away and so his smile widened and grew some interest and respect for the old woman. He didn't know why but he became confident right then that the words she uttered were all true.

"Darryl, what is she saying?" Xhemin turned to Darryl desperate for answers. She wondered if what the seer said to her husband was good or not. This caused her to worry more.

"Healer, why do you worry?" The seer noticed her expression and her fear.

"Nothing Illa," Xhemin didn't want to trouble her so she stepped back. She thought the seer must have already been tired, especially since their visit took longer than expected. "I just—"

"You worry and fear about your children," The seer answered for her by reading her expression, like how she did with Enoch earlier. "You came here not really to seek interpretation for the vision I told your husband but rather because you worry about your child,"

Darryl turned to his wife. Was this the real reason why she came here? Not because of the vision concerning Lana but because she wanted to find some assurance or words that would pacify her worry about Wolfe's health.

"Illa Durray I just wanted to know if….if any of them will suffer the same fate as their brother," Xhemin said. There was nothing to hide anymore so she didn't hold back because the old woman was able to see right through her and she was right. She indeed came here for Wolfe as she worried about his health. She wanted to have hope that he would be cured somehow, even if such hope could come from a vision.

"I have not seen anything yet….but how about I hold your hand and see if I can see something," Illa Durray said Xhemin extended her arm to her. Illa Durray held it and closed his eyes for a few minutes and Xhemin patiently waited for it. When the old woman opened her eyes she gave her gentle smile, "Do not worry, none of them will suffer the same fate as their brother. However the name of the one who died will linger longer in this world than the others,"

"His name will linger longer than the others?" Xhemin wondered what she meant but chose not to bother her at all. She knew that if the old woman could say something more, she would but she didn't.

"Do not worry about it anymore, the important thing right now is the bridge child to be born healthy and well," Illa Durray told her. "He is the most important thing in the Manggan Island right now,"

"Do not worry Illa Durray, if the healer is indeed pregnant, I'll make sure she will be given good care," The Chieftain promised knowing how Illa Durray was emphasizing the importance of the bridge child. Darryl himself felt the pressure even when they weren't sure yet if Xhemin was indeed pregnant.

"Chieftain, I will not live long anymore," The old woman announced and this time she looked at everyone as if saying her goodbyes. "These will be the last visions you'll ever hear from me. The universe already wanted me to depart this world so please take all the things I have revealed to you by heart. It is important that the bridge will be born because he will be the key to everything.He will provide a path for the moon child to comeback and free us all,"

"I promise Illa Durray in my name as the Highest Gunta that I will find the moon child no matter what," The Highest Gunta stood and gave his assurance. Illa Durray had already said her goodbyes; it means she will not live long, to give his respects, he promised to search for the prophesied child.

"Gunta I know you will be true to your promise. However you cannot find the moon child," The old woman revealed further. "The bridge child will provide a path for the moon child but the only person who can find the prophesied one is the seeker. I am certain you are not the seeker,"

"A seeker?"

"I have seen. There is a seeker," Illa Durray was certain. "I am certain he isn't you because the seeker do not have a Manggan blood,"

"This seeker is a roux blood?" The Highest Gunta asked and Illa Durray nodded.

"Is the seeker among those we had welcomed to the island like the hero and the healer?" It was the Chieftain who asked this time.

"I do not feel the seeker yet. I am certain he has not yet come," Illa Durray continued. "He is bound to come, he will come soon. With him is another healer,"

"Another healer like Professor Owens and Princess Xhemin?"

"The healer we have right now can provide food. The one who was about to come can provide a cure. He was bound to heal and cure many Manngan bloods," When Illa Durray said this, her world turned and her balance was lost. She stumbled a bit even when she was sitting.

"Illa Durray are you okay?"

"It's time for her to rest," One of her relatives announced with a worried face. Many from her household came to assist her as if they were already expecting it.

"Is she sick?" Enoch stood from her seat very worried.

"Chieftain, she had long been sick. She's very old already," Such a relative answered. "She had not accepted visitors for many years already. This was the very first time we saw her foretold strong visions and said something. She had not opened her mouth for many years already so we were really surprised when people told us that she foretold a vision for the hero. That time, she had gone missing and we found her in Somer Isles,"
