Chapter 1 - prologue ABOUT ME

I am a muse. It is hard to believe but we are real. You are probably asking yourself why I say "we".... well, all over earth girls are born that have special abilities to give and help other people with ideas and creations. We are called muses or spirits. Some dictionaries refer to us as the nine Greek Goddesses who "protect and encourage poetry, music, dancing, history and other branches of art and literature". In my opinion I think we are nine special women (not specifically Greek) who were born to save human kind. In case you haven't noticed, the world is dying because of humans and all the things you do.

You see us as normal humans, sometimes you think us strange but because we look and mostly act like you, nobody really wonders about us. And that is how we are able to save you.

We can create and carve minds, make mothers give birth and we can take life. Creating flora and fauna is our natural gift. We each have our own strengths. The only thing you need to know about is me.

I was born number 9: the last of the nine muses. Therefore I have more powerful and more nurtured abilities than the others. I am 347 years old but I look like a sixteen year old. When I first learned of my gift I saw it as a burden. I couldn't handle being in charge of other lives but this is the natural behaviour of a muse. We learn to cope. I guess we have to.

It has only happened once that a person was born and we couldn't place her in the good or evil category. So we gave her some powers, which she used well. But then she fell in love with a mortal and all hell broke loose. Her powers were neglected and she gave up her immortal life for the man of her dreams. What she forgot was that she was already too old for a mortal and, a few months after leaving her powers behind, she died of a horrible death. An evil force called Latria murdered her. The spirits of Latria follow a strict code of hunting and killing muses and potential muses. We can almost always feel when a Leti is near. (Leti is the name given to a single spirit of Latria. The easiest to explain is to say that think of Latria as an agency and the agents are the Letie). They murdered her because they felt her weakness for the human and that is when they strike.



When you read this you will need some time to get used to us. Don't worry about having to understand this encounter of my life. If you feel that this is not your kind of book then give it to someone who might think it good. But in any case, put on some music, turn the page and indulge your senses.
