I'm gonna call it an early night guys . . . . got training with Scarlet tomorrow morning . " I said to everyone .
"Ohh okay . . . . good night Emilia . " they all replied .
Eager to start reading on the things revealed tome in my vision I quickly made my way back to my room . Entering my room placing my books on the bedside table, I proceeded to swiftly clean myself up getting ready for bed and a nice long relaxing read . Just the thought of being able to relax on a bed getting lost in a book was extremely comforting .
Fully refreshed I wondered where the books could have ended up at, walking to my desk I totally forgot the stack of book Paul got for me on my first day . . . Quickly I searched for the three books i loaned through the stack but they were nowhere to be seen .
Leaning back on the desk I pondered on where they could be looking around my room but nothing seemed out of place . . . . . "Ohh maybe the wardrobe Paul seems to have everything he needs in . " I said to myself walking towards it .
Swinging the doors open there they laid on the top shelf the three books I borrowed before Helen and Jay arrived . Quickly grabbing them all of them I jumped in bed to get comfortable looking at both of them wondering which one I should read up on first .
"Introduction to the Nine Hell's, the nine levels of Torment for Sinners, Heretics and Evil Doers . . . Each layer more and more barren and harsh in their own ways . Each layer is ruled by their own Lord each equal to a God or Goddess within their own realms . Begin your journey as we venture down the River of Souls through the depths of the Nine Hells . Reading the back of the book .
"Planes of Existence . . . Among the great vast Astral Plane lies the several Planes of existence as well as the unfathomable near infinite copies on the small rock we call Earth . Imagine yourself swimming through the Astral Plane as we weave our way around exploring the Heavens and Hells and everything in between .
"Consecratus the Legendary Plane where King Soloman and his Floating Castle Originated . A strange land where Arcanum is unharnessed relying on a very primitive forms of Artificing, but somehow this Plane void of Arcanum users gave birth to the strongest and most impressive individuals to ever walk this plane . "
'ARGHHHH where do I even begin? . . . . Is this what will really happen to Paul? . . . . . If so doesn't that mean the orb vision was true and I can't even save him no matter how hard I try? . . . '
I slumped on the bed staring at the ceiling contemplating on what to do . . . . . So the first vision didn't show much . . . . . Except he sacrificed himself for the greater good, loved by many people and a small child by my leg . . . .
The second vision showed that he died again and somehow I tried to resurrect him but failed because something or someone had his soul and that we needed to unlock the secrets of Atlantis . . . . To find him and fight anything that stood in our way . . . .
Then the third vision he was possessed by a Devil or Demon . . . . and it had his soul and an Inferno contract . . . and that I was hunting them as a bargaining chip to get the information I want . . . . .
So judging by the tattoos the first vision is the one that would come to pass . . . and it being golden means it will occur after I achieve S-Ranked . . . .
. . . . . Should I tell Paul of the vision . . . . or would that cause some weird paradox . . . . . Or would telling him set him on the exact path I'm trying to prevent . . . . . Maybe I should let Ashley and Scarlet know . . . . they would defiantly know what to do . . . . .
Hmmm maybe I'll just start with planes of existence that seems like a good

I woke up to heavy thumping on the door . . . 'Urghhhh what time is it? . . " I groggily woke up .
"Who is it? . . " I struggled to shout still half asleep .
"It's me sis!" Scarlet shouted through the door . . . . .
Hearing her name I instantly woke and began to hurriedly grabbed my three books and hid them under the mattress . "One minute!" I shouted back to her as quickly scanned the rest of the room making they weren't visible or anything suspicious .
"Okay!" Scarlet replied sounding jolly and excited .
Satisfied at everything I activated the coin and opened the door for Scarlet, "Morning, Come in . " I welcomed her .
"Good morning!" She greeted me with a giant smile walking in .
"Is it tiresome to wear your plate armour everywhere? . . " I asked .
"Nahh . . . . . You'd get used to it . " She smiled taking a seat on my bed looking around .
"You have a very tidy room!" She complimented me .
"Yeah . . . I like to be tidy . . " I replied getting a towel and clothes ready for the day .
"That's totally opposite to Paul . . . . he's so messy and lazy when it comes to cleaning . " Scarlet chuckled .
"Really? . . " I asked walking into the bathroom, "I guess he's messy when I'm not bossing him around . " I joked .
"Hard to imagine him being sacred of anyone . " Scarlet laughed .
"So where's Paul? . . . have you heard from him? . " I asked a little concerned .
"Yeah he's okay . . . . . Just busy helping some Orphans . " She replied .

"Ohhh . . . . . Did he save some kids? . . " I asked .
"You could say that . . . " She replied .
"Wait . . . I don't need a shower . . . I can just use a spell to clean myself up right? . " I asked Scarlet through the door remembering Jay was able to clean my clothes yesterday .
"Umm . . . . . If you're talking about Thaumaturgy it only works on inorganic things . " Scarlet answered .
"Ohhhh . " I replied turning on the shower, "I'll only be a few minutes . " I yelled to Scarlet .
"No worries take your time . " She answered .
The alarm bells rang in my head causing me to finish up my shower quickly and get ready for training . "Sorry I'm late!" I apologized to Scarlet walking out the shower ready to go .
"It's alright . . . . we have plenty of time . " Scarlet smiled .
"Ohhh by the way . . . . everyone in my group wanted to ask if they could join us . " I asked .
"Should be great, the more the merrier . " Scarlet smiled .
"Ohhh can they join us today? . . " I asked in disbelief .
"Yeah sure, why not?" Scarlet answered .
"Ohhh ohhh can we go get them? . . " I asked almost jumping in excitement .
"Nah . . . I'll send them a message to meet us at Paul's room should be more convenient . " Scarlet smiled .
"Ashley could you wake up . . . Helen, Grace, Jay and Daisy and ask them to meet me at Paul's room please?" Scarlet asked putting a finger on her ear . "Yes of course we are talking about Emilia's friends . " She added after a few seconds . "Ohhhh one second . " She asked and turned to me . . "Ummm what about Morgana? . . " Scarlet asked quietly .
"Ummm . . . Sure? . . " I agreed hesitantly .
"Add Morgana to that list as well" Scarlet asked Ashley, silently nodding listening to what I assume was a reply . "Okay sure . . . !" She replied to him and returned to normal . "Shall we? . . " She asked me gesturing to leave .
"Sure!" I smiled grabbing my things .
"Sure!" Scarlet answered leading the way out my room .
"Ummm . . . . so what's heaven like here? . . " I asked Scarlet as we made our way to Paul's Room .
"Hmm . . . . When individuals pass away . . . . . They will be judged . . . . and if you're deemed a good person you would be sent up to Mount Caelestis to live among Gods and Angels and Other good Denizens . . . . . Now if you're deemed a Bad person . . . you will be sent to one of the nine layer of hell . . . . to live in eternal torture, eventually bent and warped into a remnant of your former self living under the thumb of a whatever gruesome horror decided to claim you . " She explained .
"… . . . . hell sounds kinda . . . normal . . " I replied .
""Why do you ask? . . " She questioned .
"Ummm nothing really . . . . was talking to Daisy about Faith and wondered what Heaven and hell was like . . " I answered .
"Well there are other places you might land in the afterlife . . . . for example . . . . particular Orc Clans or war ridden races would end up in a Plane of Eternal war of fighting and battling . " She explained .
"Ohhh that weirdly makes sense . . . . . Different afterlife for different ways of life . " I answered .
"Yes exactly that . " Scarlet smiled .
"Can we travel there? . . " I asked .
"Well . . . . travelling there is supposedly possible . . . . just almost impossible . . . . only legendary artefacts would allow individuals to traverse the Astral Plane, rumours has it there has been one spell that would allow someone to travel to another plane . . . . but it's lost through time or no one have claimed that they know it . " She added .
"What about Paul? . . . Can his Portals Traverse the Astral Plane? . . . . . He said he can visit home with it . . . which is another plane . " I asked curiously .
"Yes his portals traverses Planes . . . . but going between Earth Planes is easy . . . . there are several Warpgates that Royalty and Diplomates use to negotiates and trade with other Planes of Earth . . . . but to ascended or descend into the Planes we mentioned earlier is almost impossible . . . . . " She explained .
"Ohhh okay . . . . . So we can go to different Earths easily… . But if we wanted to visit Heaven or Hell it's almost impossible? . . " I asked .
"Yup correct, unless you die of course then it's easy to get there . " She smiled chuckling .
"Can creatures of another Plane get here? . . . like a Devil or Demon? . . " I asked .
"I'm not sure about every Creature or monster, I wasn't a great listener in class . . . . but concerning Devils or Demons . . . . they need a body to possess them can't Physical enter this Plane . . . They must first be Summoned or Coaxed . . . . then a Vessel is needed to contain them for them to stay . " She explained .
"Ohhh I see . . . " Nodding in understanding taking a step closer learning about my vision .
"Do you know anything about Solomon? . . . . Grace and Helen said he was the Ruler of Atlantis a long time ago that was able to traverse Planes . " I asked still curious on why a Blue Dragon called me a Daughter of Solomon .
"Hmmmmm Solomon . . . Rings a bell . . . but I dunno . . . . best to ask Ashley or Paul . . . they listened more in class then I did . " She sighed .
"What do you think will happen to you? . . . . When you pass on? . . " I asked curious on what Scarlet believes in .
"Undoubtedly I'd be sent to the depths of hell . . . . . " She replied .
"Really? . . . . . " I asked in surprise .
"Yeah . . . . I've killed a lot of people . . . " She confessed sounding saddened .
"Yeah but you've done a lot good now? . . . . Right? . . . . . " I asked feeling slightly .
"Yes . . . . . I try to do good now . . . and if the good outweighs my sins . . . . then maybe my soul would be saved . " She replied .
"What would you like to happen? . . " I asked .
"I want to see my mother . " She said with a serious and harsh tone .
"You don't know who your mother is? . . " I asked .
"I do know who she is . . . . but I can't remember what she looks like . . . . Nor have I ever met her . " She replied .
"I'm so sorry . . . " I instinctively replied .
"It's okay! I have a family now that I know will love me more than my mother ever would!" She replied smiling placing an arm around my shoulder .
"Yes you do!" I smiled back .
