Dreaming of revenge and plans

AMARA

Amara couldn't tell if she was dreaming or not. She felt off as if In a haze but everything was so vivid. Amara was in her village, the familiar geothermal heat on her feet and the many stone houses were convincing her this was real. . She saw her clansmen walking and the noise of their voices. Amara breath hitched with emotion. She looked around and saw her best friend Nadia, if she just went to her house that day everything wouldn't have happened. A numbing wave of grief was washing over Amara seeing her friend. Everyone called Nadia a tomboy, She cut her hair short and never wore dresses. She was a fierce woman and Amara respected that. Just as Amara began to reminisce Nadia made eye contact with her. Her eyes were full of hatred and anger. Amara was suddenly full of fear, she tried to move but couldn't. Nadia began to storm over while yelling

"HOW DARE YOU ?" "HOW DARE YOU BE HAPPY AFTER WHAT YOU DID TO US?" Her scream made Amaras stomach turn.Shame filled her , Nadia was right how dare she meet Borin and feel kinship with him but how else could she survive? she needed someone to live. She still felt the dread of all of their losses in her heart every day since.

"IM SORRY I NEVER WANTED TO HURT YOU!" Amara yelled sobbing toward Nadia who was getting closer. Suddenly everything shifted she was in a space there was nothing it was just her. There was dim light around her

A beautiful figure with a faint glow appeared. Amara couldn't tell if they were a male or female. The figure glanced at Amara,

"Your tribe cannot move on until you put their blood to rest. The eagle tribe has what you need to seek. Get it back and burn it in the old ceremonial way. Do this at the remains of the village. Spoke the figure, their voice was what honeysuckle tasted like thought Amara. Amara didn't know this person but trusted their words.

"It is my duty to avenge them and put their souls to rest " said Amara. Amara missed her tribe, her family. They were all she's ever known. She'd always wanted to explore the world but she always thought they'd be by her side. Amara thought to herself what pain her tribes people must've gone through, having their bodies drained of blood and tore apart. She had to avenge them. Before she could think more the figure spoke again.

"Amara I have a request for you, I want you to unite the beast men of many tribes to create a city of beasts where each coexist based of each others strengths. If you do this a tragedy like this will never Happen again. " The figure paused for a short moment and looked at Amara. Amara couldn't make out their facial features they were blurry? She could tell the were a beautiful person but as soon as she looked at their face she forgot it.

" I know you can do it you have the phenix fire within you"

Then Amara woke up she was still naked in bed with Borin,still in his arms. The early morning sun shined through the windows.
