- POV General -

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ In the Lands of the Vancesia Empire, under the great old and lonely mountains, the wind blew loudly making its huge hills made of stones sing. The sun's rays did not fall on these great expanses of rock, hidden by huge, thick, gray clouds hovering above. The atmosphere was gloomy, almost suffocating, but at the foot of these mountains, a white light could be seen.

At the place where Kalaa was sealed, a light flickered with a piercing white glow, illuminating the stone prison of the ancient Goddess. The woman, who was locked in the rock, glowed brightly as her body was finally freed from the shackles that had held her for thousands of years. Cracking noises could be heard as well as a soft yet icy voice echoing against the walls.

"What...what's going on ??"

The beautiful woman fell to the ground unable to understand what was happening but able to move her body freely again. She lay on the cold, wet floor, her eyes staring at the small opening that let in light, thinking back to what had just happened. Kalaa was completely naked, her pristine white skin as bright as her white hair and her two intense purple eyes.

In Freya's vision of herself and her sister, the Goddess of Time was a protective, warm and maternal big sister. However, the one on the ground did not give off that aura at all, and in fact, was far from it. For thousands of years, Kalaa had lived with the death of her little sister Lucifer on her conscience, during all the tragic events of her life.

She had fought with fervor against the humans, inhabited by a hatred against the Goddess Titania that kept growing day by day, year by year. Today, Kalaa Nightshade was finally free but her face showed no expression of joy, relief or hope. The big sister Lucifer had known was no more, for kindness, wisdom and love, had given way to hatred, revenge and pain.

"Finally...after all these years...I am finally free..."

As she spoke this sentence, Kalaa slowly straightened to stand and test the mobility of her body. It was slim, mature, very well proportioned and unlike Lucifer, the former Goddess had generous curves. Much like Gaya, her maturity showed on her body and while the dragoness looked 35, Kalaa looked just as old.

As a Goddess, 10 years didn't separate Lucifer from her older sister, but just like her wife, her older sister looked older. Kalaa was beautiful, even as gorgeous as Freya, with a heavenly beauty that only the Nightshade sisters possessed. Her long, pure white hair fell to her waist and her face, even without a smile, was mesmerizing and unforgettable.

"Im-Impossible...I feel...after all these years....the..Time magic. How...??"

As Kalaa concentrated to test her body, it began to glow with the same white light that had released her minutes ago. The mana around her seemed to be going crazy, and though she had lost her title years ago, she could distinctly feel that magic that was hers. It was only very minute but the young woman knew her all too well to be wrong and she was right.

"Mmmh....I see...Shiro. In the end, though events did not go as planned, the little one allowed me to regain a very small portion of my powers."

Indeed, when the little moon of the Elysium Empire had released the divine magic within her, her body had resonated with that of the ancient Goddess. This action had eventually released her, activating what little mana she had left, imperceptible but still present. After all, Kalaa had been the Goddess of Time herself, carrying the blood of the Nightshades, and despite Titania's intervention, the blood of the Gods still flowed in her veins.

"I can't use anything like before...I'm still too weak but I still possess this..."

At the end of her sentence, the beautiful white-haired woman conjured up three thin ice swords with ease that gravitated above her. Like Freya, she had inherited the Ice and Chaos elements in spite of herself, but as a former Goddess, the norms of this world did not fully apply to her. Of course, Kalaa was stuck with these elements, but her system was still different.

While the beings of this world were normally limited to a single-use, preventing them from creating spells or skills, for Freya and her sister this was not the case. Indeed, the ancient Goddess had the ability to possess more than one skill for each of her elements. Thus, Kalaa could create fine ice swords though nowhere near the level she had when she arrived in this world, let alone the level she had as a Goddess.

"Mmmh... three swords is enough... let's see the other.."

Making the three swords disappear, the woman closed her eyes to focus on the mana she felt deep inside. Suddenly, black walls of ice rose up all around her, creating an impenetrable-looking dome. Unlike Freya, Kalaa had retained all of her memories, her thousands of years of experience and knowledge of mana and its secrets.

Even though she possessed the same elements as her little sister, the woman knew perfectly how to use them and knew almost all the secrets of their uses. Thus, the one who had been sealed had managed to combine her two elements to create something brand new, the only limit being her MPs and her imagination. The walls she had just created were covered in a black mist, capable of absorbing anything that touched them...ice walls of chaos.

"Very well. These months of waiting in the rock will not have been for anything since I was able to accumulate enough mana and recover a few levels. Sigh...and to think I'm only level 30 when the days when white wings decorated my back...no number could describe my power."

Since her awakening ten years ago, Kalaa had not stopped feeding her mana circuits with the one that was so powerful, it had even been able to wake her up. Ten years ago, in the land of Vancesia, during the war, the day Gaya became the Mother of Dragons, Lucifer's older sister had awakened. So without knowing it, Freya's wife was the cause of her awakening and Lucifer's daughter was the cause of her liberation.

"Today... I have no title, no House, no power and my little si... L....L-Lu..."

Unable to pronounce her little sister's name, Kalaa resigned herself by shaking her head to chase away her sad and painful thoughts. For now, all she cared about was getting out of this stone prison that had surrounded her for far too long. After a few minutes, the woman raised her head towards the opening before leaping with power against the wall, shattering it.

At the foot of the silent mountains, a huge explosion sounded among the rocks, the dry trees and the murmur of the wind. From the bowels of the earth, like an angel fallen from the sky, appeared a divine naked beauty with white hair. Kalaa Nightshade, former Archangel Goddess of Celestial Wisdom and Infinite Time, scourge of Humanity during the Age of Extinction...had returned.

Taking a deep breath, with her eyes closed and her face turned to the sky, for the first time she could breathe the fresh air. In the middle of a desert of dry land stood Kalaa, who after taking a few minutes for herself, finally sat up. Her purple eyes scanned her surroundings and all her senses were active, looking for the slightest sound or movement.

"Well ? It's so quiet...no humans on the horizon, no signs of life, only silence...perfect. It's time to get ready before I leave, I also need to find something to eat and a way to get to Elysium. However, I can't decently walk around this way.."

Touching her belly with her right hand, Kalaa then made a thin layer of ice appear on her body forming like a light toga covering most of it. Then, with her left hand, she touched her hair to make appear this time a thin layer of black ice freezing her locks. Little by little, like a slow wave, the unique white color of her hair turned black.

Although it had been years since the woman had seen the light of day in this way, she knew perfectly well that her hair was unique. Before doing anything, Kalaa had to make sure she didn't attract any more attention than she already did. So, in the middle of the former home of the earth dragons, stood Lucifer's sister, black hair and dressed in a white toga made of ice.

"Mmmh, much better. Now I must head to Elysium following the tiny traces of Time magic I feel emanating from Shiro. She has apparently awakened my power buried within her which now resonates deep within my soul."

Kalaa did not know how far away Freya's Empire was, the one she had sworn to destroy in order to harm Goddess Titania. However, the little Princess' last actions had not only allowed her to awaken what little power of Time she had left, but also to follow her. For now, the former Goddess could not use her ancient magic, but Shiro was the key.

"I need to make sure I get all my powers back in time and more importantly find a way to pick up where I left off before I ended up sealed by those damn humans. I won't let her....Titania gets me a second time and I'll take everything from her !"

Kalaa felt deep down that she had nothing left to lose and wanted revenge for everything that had happened during her still mysterious past. She had no plan, only a destination and a goal that was the only thing that kept her going. For so many years, Lucifer's sister had dreamed of the moment when she would stand before Titania and make her pay a hundredfold for all the suffering she had endured.

During the Age of Extinction, Kalaa had gone on a rampage of anger without really thinking about what would happen next, blurring her sense of logic. After all, she had also been the Goddess of Celestial Wisdom, but in the end, it was the day that her heart overrode her reason that Kalaa had truly lost her title. Now she didn't want to make the same mistake again and even without a plan, chose discretion over brute force, anger and haste

"I have no time to waste ! I'm only going to follow the even very faint trail that Shiro is giving off and will find a way to support myself along the way. Sigh... why is having a human body such a... disadvantage ?"

Yes, Kalaa Nightshade was now a human and though different, no beastly ears or tails could be seen on her perfect and beautiful mature body. Hunger, sleep and basic needs, everything a human needed to function were non-existent for Gods and Goddesses. Unfortunately, the oldest of the Nightshades sisters was no longer one and had to learn again how to take care of her body.

"I'll see on the way. Time to go..."

Kalaa didn't know how far away the little Princess of Elysium was or how long it would take her to reach her but she didn't care. Time was not an issue for her because after living as a Goddess, being sealed for thousands of years and awake for 10 years, nothing could make her impatient. Time... the woman knew it well and even though she still couldn't use it, her perception about it was quite different and unique.

"Shiro, Freya... I'm coming.."

At the end of her sentence, Kalaa was leaping with all her strength towards the faint signal that the one she had sworn to snatch from Freya's clutches was giving off. In an instant, her figure disappeared completely and at great speed as she raced westward toward the Dark Forest. At this speed, it would only take her a few days to reach Elysium and confront the one who was actually her little sister.

What Kalaa didn't know, however, was that Lucifer was about to participate in the first real war her Empire had ever seen. A war where the human army of Zal, Paladins and Knights would face off against the proud army of Elysium, the very first result of an Empire welcoming the persecuted races. For the first time in the history of this world, beasts, half-humans and beast-men would rise up against Humanity.

Kalaa did not know anything about it, because only a few words were coming to her mind thanks to Shiro. Thus, the Archangel descended to earth was about to take part in this confrontation that would soon shake the northern continent of Kleisaria. Would she help the humans by wanting to harm Freya, or would she finally be the one to help them in a difficult moment ?

No one knew, but what was certain was that Lucifer and Kalaa, the Deadly Nightshade Sisters would soon be reunited by fate itself.
