Hall of Mercy

I don't have a name, so he named me "Moli".He said that I felt like black colored glaze to him.

But I understand that it is because he is too lonely that he wants me to "leave".

He has been alone for thousands of years.The loneliness revealed from his brown eyes is like a shadow.

From the first time I saw him, I knew that we would have an indissoluble relationship.

He saved me. At that time, I was living in the flames of war...

……

The flames flying all over the sky rushed to the earth with claws and teeth, and the flames spit out the letter, and any prey they caught would be devoured mercilessly.

Screams, fighting, and cries broke through the sky, but the soldiers who descended from the sky remained indifferent.

Fear swept over me. I held a staff as exquisite as a handicraft in my hand, but I dared not say any spells.

Suddenly, the wind howled, and the people in the tribe were overwhelmed by the sudden tornado.They scrambled and fled around in a panic, seeking a place to escape death.

The mages raised their staffs high and formed a circle. Countless lightning bolts circled like snakes and rushed straight into the sky, but disappeared into the dark clouds.They worked together and tried again and again, but still fell short.Suddenly, a beam of light gathered from the clouds, and it slammed down amidst lightning and thunder, and the mages turned into a wisp of green smoke, and were wiped out.

Looking at the scene in front of me, I was so scared that I couldn't walk, I stood there blankly, holding the staff in my hand, as if holding a life-saving straw.But I don’t know how to recite incantations. Even though my mother forced me to recite them a hundred times, I still couldn’t utter a single word. Whenever I was about to blurt out, it seemed like a stick in my throat.In the blink of an eye, many things came to my mind. The first thing I remember is when I opened my eyes and saw my mother. I was already a big girl at that time.It was a sunny day, and the spring breeze was very comfortable.My mother pulled me up from the grass and smiled at me softly, the best and most comfortable smile I have ever seen.

In a trance, a warm hand pushed me out, and a gentle and desperate voice clung to my ears—run away, child, stay away from here, hide!

A huge star array suddenly opened up under my feet, and a ray of light rose from each star to surround me.I stood in the center of the star array and looked back to see my mother pull out the red gold long sword at her waist. As soon as the blade was drawn out, darkness enveloped the earth, and the red gold sword shone like life.I raised the staff in my hand and beat the wall frantically, but my strength was negligible, and I couldn't shake my mother's star array at all, and the star array remained motionless.I could only shed tears in despair, seeing my mother rushing into the beast-like tornado alone with a sword, her figure was soft and boneless.

In the end, she said - never come back, live... I couldn't hear what she said after that, I knew she must be calling my name.

However, I forgot my name.

Even the memories of only a few years slowly slipped out of my mind like silk.If I hadn't been bound by a group of warriors in silver armor at this moment, I might have completely forgotten my enemy.

I fell down and sat among them, holding my staff tightly, still not daring to say a single incantation.I only dare to use my already blurred eyes to stare at them resentfully.

"You still dare to stare at me?" The soldier in front of me raised his big knife and slashed at my head. I closed my eyes tightly and trembled all over.

But I am not dead.
