Her eyes looked to the starlit sky, a member of the celestial bodies, a
blood moon, in it's infinite expanse filled the heavens. the long, thin
fingers of her hand clutched at the amulet at her throat. In the heart
within her bosom fear lurked, a horrible feeling of guilt and fear. The
stone of the amulet glowed under her hand, a glow of every color. The stone
was called "Rainbow Drops". Because it was all that was left of the Rainbow
of Hutkila.
Atira fell to her knees sobbing, the very soul being ripped from inside.
The blood moon signified death, always someone close to her died. Her
Mother, her Father, her Sister, and now her love. The only thing left in
the world to her was dead by the hand of a Virgin. The Virgin Preistess of
Komim.
"Jassa!"Atira had her eyes upon the beautiful young women who was the
favorite of the Preistess'. "Thou wilt pay with thy life!!!"
She lunged for the slender white throat. But someone held her arms. Looking
behind her she saw two other preistess' furious with anger. "Who art thou
that come here? Seeking to do harm to the preistess that seeks no harm for
thee?"
"May not me, but my lover hath she killed. I stood there unable to do
anyhting. She be no virgin preistess!"
"Serious art thou accusations against her."
"Aye, but all true."
Jassa's eyes fell upon the stone. "The stone!!!! The Rainbow Drop! Stay
away I knew not what I had done! Stay away from me! I knew not who thy
were when I did the thing!"
The Rainbow Drop flared and the light went through the entire room. As the
light dimmed a woman stood where before them.
