Chapter 52 – 1510

[Me]: Close your eyes, let go of yourself and imagine the link in between us.

[Hakim]: What the hell?

[Me]: Sshh.. Be quite! Let her concentrate...

In the morning we left to portal. It felt like a show. Luna, me and Hakim were standing on the center while Gorn and rest of the dwarfs were standing in circle around us in observation.

It felt like a needle stabbing my finger. I knew that my mana was being sucked out of me though if I wanted I could stop it. Luna’s aura had changed. Hakim was aware of it too. He backed away a step or two to put distance between himself and Luna.

Luna took out her wand and chanted the spell. Sparks appeared out of wand’s tip. For a moment I lost my will thinking bonding me and her didn’t work out as planned. I put my hands on my face in confusion and heard the sound of lightening.

It was unbelievable. Lightening was coming out of wand’s tip and hitting the portal on its side. Nothing was happening but Hakim insisted on waiting for another few minutes. In the middle of portal a liquid began to appear and enlarge. In less than few minutes it covered inside of the circular portal. It was not water but looked like it. I came close to portal. I felt a hand grabbing me from behind.

[Hakim]: Take it... and good luck!

It was a lump of gold size of a small rock. I put it inside me pocket. Turned back to face the portal. To tell the truth I was scared. I didn’t know what was waiting me but still imagined that I’m back in my world. Thinking about Mehn city, my village, Mariette, my mother, Alva .... closed my eyes and jumped to portal.

I felt nothing at first. Opened my eyes to see what was going on. It was like I was falling through a tube. I could see stars far away and I was travelling without moving. I couldn’t sense, feel or touch anything. I don’t know even if time was passing as everything went on. Idea of time and location was not present where I was.

Noises of crackling, rustling and swishs almost exploded in my ears. Startled I put my hands on my ears and pushed my palms as hard as I could to stop the voices. Pain was unbearable, and my eyes closed I was screaming the hell out.

I felt light covering me in an instant and I felt peace. Opened my eyes and took my hands from my ears. I felt gravitation and boom...It was like something took me with its hands and punched me to the ground. Out of instincts I closed my eyes again.

[Me]: Damn... Did I break my nose?

Whispering to myself, I used my right hand to check out my face while pressing on my left forearm. The bell ringed. I opened my eyes to see the solid ground I was lying on. My hands on ground pushing my body first, I used my legs to stand up. I was inside a forest.

[Me]: Did I make it back?

I checked my right hand, Ulfberht was in his ring form.

[Me]: Ulfberht did we make it back?

[Ulfberht]: I am not a navigator. Get the hell out of this place and we will now!

[Me]: What’s with the attitude?

[Ulfberht]: I’m going to throw up now...

Sometimes he was unbearable. Nevertheless he was a good companion. I didn’t know where to go, so I began to walk straight.

It took less than an hour to go out of the forest. Actually, I was not out of forest yet, but found a path. It was a well paved road.

[Me]: They have built everything back to its original condition... (thinking to my self)

I walked on the road. In less than 20 minutes a caravan passed me and I stopped them to talk.

[Me]: Hi. My name is Aslan. I’m of Kali tribe.

[-]: I’m Jafar. Owner of this caravan. How may I help you warrior?

He recognized my tribe. I was really back in my world.

[Me]: Would you mind if I get on in one of the carriages? I’m tired after walking for long time.

[Jafar]: Join me! Hop on!

I grabbed his hand, got on the carriage and sat beside Jafar. Sometime later I asked him if it was alright if I slept on top of the goods he was carrying and he nodded in aggreement.

I woke up when I felt a hand on my left arm. Opened my eyes.

[Jafar]: You have slept for more than a day. Must be very tired ha?

[Me]: Yes!

[Jafar]: Come on, let’s eat.

Mercenaries protecting the caravan, traders, merchants, travelers – all of them had come together to eat. I joined them for meal but stayed away from talking to them. It was afternoon I assume when we left to our destination.

I didn’t want to tell them what has happened to me as nobody would believe. Few hours later we reached our destination. The city seemed familiar to me. Actually everything was too lively to fit what I saw last time when I left my world.

[Me]: Which city is it?

[Jafar]: City of Ark!

[Me]: Wait a minute... What year is it?

[Jafar]: It’s 1510.

I was in shock! I didn’t know what to do!

[Jafar]: You seem like, you have sleeped for ages!? Are you an immortal who woke up after a long sleep? Hahahaaa

I whispered.

[Me]: 1510.
