Chapter Five

Earth. What a beautiful planet, one of the few worlds I treasure and adore. Let’s not forget the species that live on it. I’ve heard of legends of their kind where they can live in scorching and freezing temperatures, and they used to be the most uneducated in sciences. However, they have prospered marvelously, much more than my kind has predicted. Many centuries ago, mankind treasured and worshipped us like we were gods. If my memory serves me correctly, the people were from the northeast… they were, what you call, Greek. About two or three thousand years ago, I can’t remember the exact date, but my homeland was destroyed because of a star, which became old and turned into a super nova.


Nobody saw it coming. My mother and father, the King and Queen, died in this traumatic event, leaving my Aunt Bellatrix to rule our kind. Or should I say, the remaining of our kind. During the time, I was only an infant, who didn’t know of the world. My indentured servant, and life long friend, Orion, saved me. Orion was nine hundred years old, but to the human eye he would have appeared to be a strong, courageous three year old. The survivors who escaped on the vessel, of which humans would call a comet, were sent out into space and travelled around to find a new planet to thrive on. The name Praecantures, meaning magic travellers, was given to our vessel by other species. In the beginning, each planet we ventured on, we found life there and left. But, to show our gratitude to the hosts for their hospitality, we grant them a wish. Of course, Aunt Bellatrix is the only one to grant this wish. Therefore, we have gone on trying to find a place to stay where our kind can live.


In the present, Orion is thirty-nine hundred years old. If he were a descendant of the royal family, he would be eligible to rule Praecantures. In human years, one would have to be thirteen years old in order to rule. A respectable, intelligent thirteen year old that knew how to take care of a little girl better than her Aunt ever did. My aunt is a bit, well, preoccupied with other business. She somewhat neglects me, but I don’t mind. I use the alone time to study and teach myself new things. Since we travel to other realms or worlds, we must know the native language and history. I have been taught all one thousand tongues of the worlds, which in secret I have been learning modern day English. Normally, my kind only knows Latin for Earth, but I have found out that Latin is a dead language among them. Also, I have learned “magic” because being a descendant of the royal family; you have the gift to grant wishes.


In fact, I have just cast a spell I’ve recently learned how to-


“Cassiorius, what have you’ve done?” a voice with a sharp crack at the end, echoed the icy walls of my study room. I glanced up from my writing, stopping dead in my tracks.


“What on Praecantures, do you mean?” I asked curiously, placing my utensil down.


A figure stood next to me, glancing down with a stern look on his face. Orion. His dark blonde hair was short, his eyes were a golden colour, his skin was pale white from getting no sun, and his body figure was gangly.


“You know what I mean,” he hinted, glaring into my violet eyes.


There was a moment of silence between us, my eyes wandered over towards the clear frozen window. Off in the middle of the distance, there was the planet I treasured the most…


“Well, I might have done something,” I replied, with a mischievous smile.
