    I’m not even sure who all still needs/wants to do the worst regret… Ehud? Saevus? …. im so bad at remembering who all is in here…

    Abirami

    I held Ku as my regret was revealed, then I lifted her up and carried her toward the back where the seats didn’t have any accursed straps on them.

    Before, I had just been curious about all these strangers, pulled in from other worlds. Now, I was ready to leave. Forget this castle! If all it did was hurt Ku and those innocent from other worlds, then I wanted nothing to do with it. Soon as Ku felt up to it, I was going to tell her to send her hive out to find an exit.

    Images of Jade, then others in the castle either flashed up on the screen or were spoken aloud in front of everyone.

    Half of me hoped Ku wasn’t listening. Most if not all of them had highly traumatic regrets, just like she had. While the other half of me kinda hoped Ku was listening. At least, then she would know she wasn’t alone in her regrets. There were others who had lived through very terrible circumstances. Perhaps not like hers, but… what was that teaching from Maaterra that Puabi was always saying?

    “Each heart knows it’s own bitterness, but no one else shares its joy.”

    Yeah, that was it. Perhaps there was some great truth to that statement. Just one more shred of wisdom recovered from a history long lost to us.

    I looked around me, and there were a great many teary eyes. Some were shaking cause their time had passed, and their regrets shown. They shook as they recovered. While others were shaking for their name had yet to be called.

    I glared at the screen and up at the ceiling.

    This was just wrong.

     

     

    (Maaterra – pronounced may-tare-rah – Maa is Estonian for mother, and terra means earth… long story short… there is a mythology lost to time of all life coming from a distant and different world where there was a massive fight between good and evil. The good won, but some of them found themselves on this new planet. The old world is called Maaterra and the teachings of the good ones are generally called the teachings of Maaterra. which are all but lost to time, in general. Only the ancient and old race of L’entians know of and are familiar with the legends. ((Princess Puabi is a L’entian)) )
