1572 – The Calamity
Â
Rebeccah stepped heavily with an annoyed sigh. Not even one day afterand they already asked her to come back. She continued to the large wooden door that she was lead to the previous day. She struggled to get it to open due to it still being locked.
Â
“Sorry, Miss,†the peon arrived and unlocked the door for her. Shepointed him away and tried to open the door herself. He obliged and hurried off. She finally got it open and gave the Hyur inside an angry look.
Â
“So much for waiting a few days?†she crossed her arms and stared downon him.
Â
He shrugged as he showed the cuts up and down his arm from the daggers.He then pointed to the few on his legs. She shook her head and pushed the door shut.
Â
“Stand up then,†she ordered. He obeyed and stood with ease, making herslightly intimidated as he towered over her by a whole fulm. She knelt down and examined his legs first. She felt her face get hot again as she pressed her hand against the wound to heal it. She rolled her eyes at herself and tried to focus.
Â
“Would you mind telling me how you are getting roughed up like this somuch?†she requested to her patient. She moved onto another cut waiting for his response. She finished the second before finally adding, “Edgar?â€
Â
She looked up to see him staring out the window. She stood up andfollowed his gaze to Dalamud. Meteors lit up the sky as they plummeted down in balls of fire. The ground shook as they collided with the ground near Ul’dah. Dalamud had a new glow upon it.
Â
“There is probably a battle there now,†Edgar finally spoke with a nodin the direction.
Â
“Would…would you be there now if not for being here?†She spoke timidlyas they both still looked at the moon. Before he could say anything, it began to glow a brighter red. “By the Twelve…â€
Â
Seconds later it exploded in fiery chunks. The ground quaked again aspieces of it pounded down. One collided not too far and blew dust and soot through the window. Edgar covered Rebeccah as they turned their back to the window and knelt for more protection.
Â
A roar emitted in the air as more explosions occurred. They couldn’tsee anything through the cloud that stifled the room. All they could do was remain quiet listening to the mayhem. The ground wouldn’t stop quaking. The roaring continued for what seemed like hours.
Â
Then a new bright light cut through the mist. Just as quickly as itappeared, it disappeared in another blinding flash.
Â
Theyremained motionless for a few more seconds. Edgar felt her trembling as he released his protective hold over her, “It’s okay. It’s over now.†He hesitantly placed his hand on her shoulder for support.
Â
“W-what wast-that?†her voice fit her scared state.
Â
“I don’t know…â€
