The Coloured Gem

Once upon a time, there lived a magician in the old town of Timothy Square, who was on the verge of deathbed and was waiting for his granddaughter who he was supposed to meet during his final moments so that he could transfer his power to her. Since there was a tradition of transferring powers to the firstborn of the progeny of Grand Sorcerers of Sorcerer’s guild. This was the custom followed in the whole town of Timothy Square which was part of the land Raevera”.He waited and waited till he breathed his last breath.

He had passed away without meeting her, the very night leaving something for her in his wife’s care.

His granddaughter’s arrival was delayed by two days. Since teleportation magic could only be performed by the Monarchy. A general citizen could not use this power. Only a general citizen with prior consultation can use the teleportation magic. His granddaughter was short on time and King Ruthias Morrtique didn’t permit her to use the power for herself. After her plea was declined she travelled by foot and reached her grandfather‘s residence after two days.

After she came, she was informed by her grandmother that her grandfather had passed away and had expressed his desire of meeting her and she cried hearing the news of his demise and recalled her memories with him. She mourned the dead later that day. Both grandmother and granddaughter comforted one another. Her grandmother gave her a keepsake of her grandfather as his last memory of him to her. The keepsake was a gemstone that Armin (the grandfather )was supposed to give her himself.

When the granddaughter touched the gemstone, a bright light came her way engulfing her in a cloud of yellow sparkle dust. The black gemstone carried the soul and powers of grand magician Armin, the grandfather of Gemma (the granddaughter ). It acted as a channel for transferring power to her by Armin (the grandfather) himself by a spell. She got his powers during her teleportation to the Dimonion channel gateway. She met Armin‘s soul at the gateway channel. He was waiting for her there to tell her about his parish of his physical form, his reincarnation to Channel Dragon who was the guardian of the channel Gate.

Both were pleased to meet one another. He told her to be a good Sorcerer who gives justice to his people and the power she holds as a sorcerer. He told her that he would always be watching her and her Grandmother (Martha). He told her to tell her grandmother not to worry about him and that he would meet Martha in the afterlife. Armin told Gemma that she can use the gemstone to contact him whenever she needs. They bid each other adieu. The grandmother who was was worried sick about her granddaughter‘s disappearance got a sudden flash of bright light before her eyes and her eyes widened seeing Gemma‘s reappearance again.

She was shocked and immediately hugged her and Gemma narrated the whole story to her about the channel gate and her grandfather Armin’s reincarnation. While hugging one another, Gemma noticed that the black gemstone had changed its colour and had turned into a coloured gemstone of a rainbow colour which hinted that the residual reserve power of her grandfather, Armin. She became elated with her newfound powers, responsibilities and the pain of losing her grandfather but was glad that he turned into a channel gateway dragon. Both Martha and Gemma were glad that Armin was now in a happy space.Seeing the smile on both the faces Armin's soul must have rested in a happy space. His soul awaits for his beloved.
