Haflah (The Ceremony Of Life)

The tree branch just missed Kyle by an inch, which had him white like a ghost, for that, he chattered like a monkey & showed the fear in his eyes. The trio ran to the village without hesitation, while the clouds were right behind them, as if they were followed. All the villagers weren't expecting a storm, as they're targeting a grand festival that night, the Soul Circle. It's a festival to remind them of a huge flood landed to their village ages ago, before the war that scattered all the town into two regions, the North & the South. It was conducted by the village's chief, Mahu Gron, the man that brought the light of the village into Jake's eyes. "Father! A storm is coming, we better get the people to safety", "Thank you, Kyle". Mahu Gron & Kyle, moved from cottage to cottage, telling them to move to the underground cavern, which was situated at the foot of a mountain, near a stream. For that moment, they were safe & the ceremony could still be done as planned.

As privilege for the guests, they were included in the main event, which was 'dream catching', "What's dream catching, uncle Albert?", with a joyful face he explained, "Well, it's like seeing a memory of the past, the present or the future, which you see as a dream, only you could see it & no one else, because of that you must figure it out by yourself. Some of the dreams, are direct, others are a glimpse of a series of events, some were nightmares, some were reflection of your actions, & others were guides for a great adventure. Well, that's what they all say, here's your chance". With the words coming out of the old man mouth, he felt a huge aura or force that was coming from someone, but he was uncertain from who.

The 1st five were the strong & courageous warriors of the village, two of them saw their past, one experienced a life in the future, one saw the dream as if he 's watching the ceremony but in a different place. Suddenly, one of them didn't wake up, Mahu Gron said that he was unconscious because he's too frightened of what he saw, it maybe despair, sadness, lonesome, bloodshed, even death. "Ok, its your turn, my brother", he walked into the circle and lay his head facing the dark wall of the cavern, seeing nothing, like a continuous end, for some reason, he became sleepy, & sleepy, until his eyes were closed shut. "Father! Hurry!".............
