Chapter 1: The Travelers

"Pater! Please no," Moon begs the her Father over and over.


"No puella you most go," Father says smiling at his children wiping away Moon's dripping tears. Sun has a stern but sad expression plastered on his face like a mask.


The situation that has been unfolding for the past twenty minutes begun when Father called Sun and Moon into his chambers to discuss a break for his children, when they finally arrived Father started telling them it is time for them to explore the earth they guided since they were born. "But father why?" They both asked in complete disbelief.


"It is time for you guys to see the wonders of the world," Father tells them kindly, you see in the next two days the children will be celebrating a milestone in their existence which means they need some way to celebrate it and Father thinks the best way to do that is for them to spend time on Earth. The children thought this too much they wish not to leave home but Father will not shake in his disesion in the slightest,"guys this is your well needed break."


After fighting back and forth with each other, Sun had had enough agreeing for both him and his sister leaving his Father's chambers.


"Sol why would you agree to leave?" Moon asks chasing after her brother.


Sun stops at the door of his room to look at his angered sister," because we both need time to relax and it would be nice to see some of the creations on Earth," he tells her entering his room shutting the door in her face.


"Rude!" She stamps her feet shouting at the door storming off to her room.


°°°°°°


The twins have been giving their light to the world as they usual do but today they will be temporary replaced for they are getting ready to make their way down to Earth.


"I hope we get to see mater nostra," sun says with childish excitement.


Moon equally as excited tells what she had been told,"Pater says she will be our first stop."


Father walks into the room where the children are talking,"The Gatekeepers will be opening the portal now so come."


"Yes Pater,"


As they make their way to the portal room Father stops them to gift them both a necklace of two halves representing their individual symbols. After saying their goodbyes the children step through the portal landing in the wondrous garden of Eden. They walked around searching for mother not having any knowledge of the landscape because they have only been here once before quite early in their creation.


"MATER, MATER!" They cupped their hands around their mouths call out for their mother.


"YES, WHO IS IT?" A beautifully aged woman walks out to a table with tea, biscuits and other sweet treats. She is dressed in a that matches her personality and title of Mother Nature, the dress she wore was a flowing grass green color decorated in vines and jewelry made in the image of her splendid flowers.


"It is us Mater, were you expecting someone else?" Sun cheekily asks getting a sneaker from his sister.


"Well, yes I was but you can both join us," the twins look at each other shrugging it off and sit down in the chairs mother had instructed them to.


Mother sits after pouring the tea delicately picking up the fine china,"so what are your plans for your visit?"


"We have not really thought about it," moon informs mother," we were only given two days and we were so preoccupied with work that we haven't."


"Okay then-" in the middle of her speaking she stops getting up," it took you longer than usual to get here what happened?" She goes to greet a group of three people who is persevably those guests she referred to.


The one infront removes his hood hugging mother like a reunioned friend,"we were caught in a small storm old friend it was nothing we couldn't handle."


"Okay, come sit have a snack!" She happily offer the travelers,"oh I most introduce you to my liberi Luna and Sol."


"Hello," they wave at the strangers.


"Hello, nice to meet you we have heard stories of your wonders," the man tells his companiaons to remove their hoods as respect,"sorry this is their first time coming on a travel...I am Rex, the girl is Rosa and the boy is my son Dynastes."


"Nice to meet you as well."


The stories told of the twins consist of Mother praising her Children going on and on about their looks, the beautiful light of the Moon, with dark features and radiant blue eyes and Sun the handsome strong man with a wonderful shining aura that resembled the sun, his eyes were like molten gold.


They ate and talked about business and casual topics like the friends they are, the children choose to talk amongst themselves.


"Sol, Luna!" Mother call them out of their discussion with the others,"Rex and I have come up with the idea of you guys traveling with them to their village, it is all up to you?" they consult with each other then agree to it,"excellent you will be leaving by morning."


The twins turn to the Dynastes and Rosa asking them about the journey ahead of them,"it is long and at anytime an obstacle can rise, we can also become victims to natural occurrences."


"Okay, I think we can handle that how hard could it be," Moon declares in her usual confident voice but inside is in a state of panic for they have barely left the comfort of their walls in their existence so they are not used to many things.


"Chop, chop it is time to go to inside come along," Mother claps instructing them all like little children,"you my all retreat to your rooms until called for dinner."


They all did as they were told, the children staying together to continue their conversations and Rex gone to take rest.
