Inside the library.
The people are looking at a pile of items.
"All these items were in Modano mansion?" Natalie
"Yes." Matilda
"Let's see the items." Eric
Eric starts looking at the items. He finds and picks a scroll from the pile. He opens it and he sees that the scroll is a map. He looks at Natalie and Matilda.
"Come here and see the scroll." Eric
Both women come around Eric and look at the scroll with curiosity. When they see the content of the scroll they were shocked.
"A map?" Both women say at the same time.
"Do you know where is this place?" Eric
The women study the map carefully and they try to find a clue about the place. The eyes of Natalie stay at the corner of the map and she stunned.
"This map points the direction towards The Great Witch tomb." Natalie
"The Great Witch?" Eric
"The Great Witch Isabella. She was the most powerful witch and the leader of all witches. This is the tomb and some rumors say that the tomb can help the witches to find their sacred place." Natalie
"What is the sacred place?" Eric
"It's the place where the witches can live their lives peacefully without worry about the hunt from other people. This place is only for witches." Natalie
"Is the map real? Does that place even exist?" Eric
"I do not know. The paper that the map was drawn is old but I do not know exactly." Natalie
Matilda was looking at the pile of items and she sees an item that it is similar to Natalie's amulet.
"Natalie come here and look this item." Matilda
Natalie goes to Matilda, she picks the item and examines it carefully.
"It is the same symbol as my amulet." Natalie
"This is the symbol of the Great Witch. Why has these items?" Natalie
"The Great Witch are you talking called Isabella?" Eric

"Yes. How do you know?" Natalie
"The person that sold me the amulet told me about it. Has every witch a symbol?" Eric
"No, rumors say that Isabella created six rings 5 for the closest followers of her and one for her. The rings can locate each other. " Natalie
"Let's continue looking about other items." Eric
Both women nod and continue searching.
At the City Centre
A man stands in front of the crowd with a scroll at his hand. The man is the Advisor of the King.
"Citizens of the Kingdom. We will increase the number of patrols in the streets of the city. All the people of the Modano family died because they offended a powerful person. Do not worry they will not attack innocent people." Advisor finishes the speech
He leaves the area and he goes towards the Royal Palace.
"Your majesty I finished the speech." Advisor
"You have done well." The King
"What will we do about the remains of the missing persons?" Advisor
"We will keep them here for three more days. We must not let people know that the missing people were killed by Modano family." King
"Your majesty, I have a solution about the problem with nobles families." Advisor
"What solution?" King
"We will leak the information that some noble families abduct people and kill them for fun. Then I will make a speech again that we found the missing people dead inside the Modano's mansion. This will divide the families." Advisor
"Good idea. I will let you handle it." King
"Thank you, your Majesty." Advisor
"Do not forget to erase all evidence about the dark church in the mansion." King
The advisor stands up and leaves the room.
Inside the Princess's library
Natalie is reading a book with a black cover.
"We finished searching through the pile of items." Matilda
"The deacon found much information about the Great Witch." Eric

"Why did he searched about the tomb?" Matilda
Natalie closes the book and she looks at the two people.
"I have the answer to this question." Natalie
Natalie points at the book that she holds and both people look at her.
"This book is the journal of the Deacon. He wrote many details about the witches. His mother was a witch and his father was a farmer. They lived as a happy family in a village. They were in harmony with the villagers but the situation changed when the villagers learned about his mother that she is a witch. His parents learned that their secret leaked, packed their belongings and they tried to escape from the village but their effort was pointless. His parents gave their lives to let him escape from the villagers. After the escape from the village, he started to wander and he learned more information about the witches. There is in the book his personal opinion about the sacred place of the witches." Natalie
"Tell us about his personal opinion." Eric
"He does not believe that the sacred place even exists. He thinks when a witch lives a happy life without a worry in a place that is her sacred place." Natalie
"Why did he join the church of darkness?" Eric
"He joined the church because he wanted to take revenge from the villagers that killed his parents. After two years, he went back to the village and he slaughtered all the village. After the incident about his parent's death, he started to hate the Church of Light and he started to kill the believers of the church." Natalie
"Why did he search about the tomb?" Eric
"He wanted to use the power of the witch to achieve the wish of his mother but his mind was corrupted by the church." Natalie
"Did he find the location of the tomb?" Eric
"No, he thinks that the tomb is somewhere in the Mephisto Empire." Natalie
"It's a pity that we do not know the location or what items hid inside the tomb." Eric
Inside Kelkan's Mansion
In a room, two people are sitting and discussing.
"Take this poison and put it on the food or drinks of the King. I cannot wait until the investigation about the Modano family finishes. Make it look like someone from the nobles families poison the King." The leader of Kelkan family
"As you wish." Servant
The servant takes the poison and leaves the room.
"You fools. The king already knows about our scheme to control the throne. You will take the blame about the death of the King. Do not blame me for this." Middle-aged man thought
Inside Natalie's Mansion
Matilda holds a bottle and she tries to identify the black liquid inside. She opens the bottle and she tries to smell it. The smell is horrible and disgusting.
Eric saw Matilda held the bottle and he goes behind her. Matilda turns to show the bottle at Natalie and she finds Eric in front of her. The sudden appearance of Eric startled Matilda and she spills the liquid. The liquid makes contact with the skin and she groans in pain.
The sudden sound startled both people and they look at Matilda
"Are you alright?" Eric
"No, my hand is in pain." Matilda
"What happened here?" Natalie
"The liquid came in contact with her skin and she is in pain now. I think the potion is a poison that can cause pain." Eric
Natalie holds the hand of Matilda and she looks at it.
The amulet that Natalie wears starts to emit light and it engulfs the hand that the liquid made contact. Black smoke comes out of her hand and the room starts to smell horrible.
"What is happening here?" Eric and Natalie are shocked by the sudden light of the amulet.

He had been reincarnated, that too as the sole prince and heir of the human empire. He had been reincarnated, now living in a world of sword and magic, filled with fantastical beasts, demi-humans, divine beasts, Goddesses and so much more. Life finally seemed to take a turn for the better for the reincarnated boy. However, as always, reality had its cruel ways of disappointing him. His parents died shortly after his birth in a war to save humanity, subjecting him to the life of an orphan. All the people vying for the throne turned against him, looking for any and all opportunities to kill him, the last living heir to the throne. Fortunately, he had his aunt, his last living family, who helped protect him by becoming the acting queen but this came with the price of being holed up in his palace till his ‘awakening’ which would enable him to defend himself and survive in this cruel world… Witness the story of the young boy now called Sol, the son of the hero king. The man who sacrificed himself and his beloved wife to save the world, the legendary figure resonating in everyone’s heart, either in admiration or fear of his all-encompassing might and chivalry.

8 130Mai Hoon Saath Tere...
Almost all of the devakshi fans, including me hated Sanjana. She was caught at the hospital red handed, trying to kill Bejoy and was taken away by the police, but I was not satisfied.Hence I'm writing this SS. In beginning, you may get annoyed and irritated, but I'm sure that ending will please you. If not everyone then at least some people.It will have a little more drama, just to set a plot to catch sanjana. In the beginning, the game might be on her side, but the in the end it will turn against her.Give a look, u won't be disappointed.[I don't believe in making my readers to wait for long. I'm gonna give quick updates.]This is a short story and will end just in six parts.
