“Yes. It is possible. But only the most powerful of beings are permitted to enter.” He said in a questioning tone.
I asked him how to get there and he said that he was not sure because anyone who had ever traveled there never spoke of it to any other person.
“It has to be something within that person that carries them there.” Eric said directly.
Something within. Could it be my power? Maybe it connected to me being a Queen in the Circle of Light.
“I want to try to locate your friend. If I only knew how to, it would sure make it easier.” I told Maggie.
Maggie said that it shouldn’t be too hard to find her when I get there. Legend says that the spirit already knows when someone is coming to them. The law forbids them to ignore the call. That was the rule.
“Okay then. Here goes nothing.” I said closing my eyes. I was concentrating solely on Maggie and the story that she had told me.
“Yes, my Queen?” I heard a girl say. I opened my eyes to see one of the most beautiful teenage girls that I had ever seen. No model or anyone on a magazine cover could compare to her. She was naturally exquisite. No makeup or procedures could create a look like she has.
I wanted to sound like the other Queens of the Circle would if they had been here talking to her. “Dear one. May I ask the nature of the curse on Maggie?”
She told me the same story that Maggie had. Only she had given me a more detailed account. It haunted her. That was very plain to see.
“Could there be any way to release her without her dying?” I asked her. We stood in silence as the girl thought on the matter at hand.
I explained that I was certain that Maggie had served her sentence well and that she would be more helpful to others if the curse could be modified in some way. “Maybe we can compromise?”
“Yes. I do think I can allow that.” She replied. “This hurts me as much as it does her. I just wanted you to know that. I done this to her so she could feel my pain as I died in her arms.”
Maggie had not told me that part of the story, but it was not of high importance right now. All I was concerned about was somehow taking some of the pressure off her so she could be better use to the Circle.
“I will make it to where she can manipulate other people’s feelings. Make them feel what she wants them to feel. However, if she causes harm to someone, good or bad either way, she will feel what he or she feel at that time, but on a much larger scale than she does now. She will remain immortal and will still be able to feel the good and bad emotions that others give off. Just not to as high of a degree as she does now. When the curse ends she will still experience death as I did my Queen.” She said. “I deserve, at least, that much and I want her to always be able to remember how this came to be. My death.”
I understood her in a way that was unsettling to me. If put in that very same position, I cannot say that I would be able to handle it differently.
“Thank you, dear spirit. Is there anything that I might be able to do for you to return the favor?” I asked.
“Yes.” She said as she began to cry. “Will you tell her that I am genuinely sorry and tell her that I still love her even after what she done?” I nodded my head in agreement and left the spirit world to return to my own.
When back in my world, I felt the familiar draw to Eric returning. Everything in the spirit world seemed to be full of hurt and agony for one reason or another. Each Spirit had its own reasoning for the way they felt. Usually, it was the result of their lives ending so tragically.
Maggie was sitting there staring at me when I opened my eyes. I was sure that when I traveled like this, my body remained behind, waiting for my spirit to return. She didn’t have any glimmer of hope in her eyes at all.
