One Hundred One:
Heavenly Realm
Gods and Goddesses together with the entire Guardian Angels gathered around at the Celestial Domain where their father resides. Everyone from each of their realms and kingdoms came to listen for their father's announcement, an announcement that will lead everyone into confusion and surprise.
"Do you know anything about what our father might announce?" one of a God asked.
"No I don't." God Morpheus answered. "And that is the reason why I came here to listen to it," he added.
"You were right," Spirit God/Goddess Wren suddenly spoke up unexpected. "That's why you shouldn't ask for something so obvious."
The God just smirk before leaving them alone as if to lessen his humiliation he chooses to back off and speak no more.
"That's kind of harsh, Spirit Wren."
"Because that is the truth," he simply answered.
God Morpheus just answered it with a half-smile before the sound of the bell rings all over the place, indicating that their father is about to speak that made everyone to silence.

"Who are you talking to, Almos? And why are you referring yourself as a new born God?"
I was surprised when I forgot about Morpheus' presence and accidentally let him hear what was on my mind.
"I'm sorry, God Morpheus."
"For what?"
"What I mean was about the announcement of our father, the new born God that he was talking."
"Oh, that one," he took my lie seriously that made me feel at ease. "Although, he didn't mention the name of this 'New God' that makes me wonder why he even announce it incomplete. What was his reason?"
Silence.
"That's…" I paused as I remember the name of the new born God as he introduced himself as soon as he met me with Jeanne. And if ever Morpheus and the other Gods and Goddesses will know who he really was, then, it will be a great disaster to reveal the whole truth.
"What is it, Almos? What do you want to say?"
I look at him and think of anything that will lead out from the truth that I know. "That maybe, father didn't want us to worry since the 'New Born God' came from the Oblivion that will put every Immortal in danger."
Morpheus takes a deep breath before answered. "You were right he even blessed the entire Immortal with a powerful protection. Anyway, for now we should continue our duties."
"Yes, I'll go now." I answered before we go on our separate ways.

Dream World
Once again I'm inside in my dream and right now I'm standing on a road that leads to a rural town. Where I can see green fields all over the side of the road and in front of it, there are lots of trees and plants that will guide anyone to the entrance of this small town. I don't know what the name of this place I just followed the road that I'm in.
I walk in my normal pace when suddenly I saw someone walking towards my direction that halts my steps. I waited for this person to approach me and I was surprised seeing…
"Spirit Wren! What are you doing here?"
"To meet you."
"Why?"
"I have an announcement for you."
'Announcement?' "What is it?"
"Let's go to the town first."
After a while…
The town is simple and the people living here are also simple. Most of the men were farmers while the women were vendors and some were house wives. Children were freely playing around the town. And the more I watch the whole town, I feel at ease as if I became a part of it even though the truth, this is just a dream and soon everything will end and I'll be back to my reality.
"Are you ready to listen to my announcement?" suddenly Wren breaks my wondering.
I take a deep breath before I answered. "Yes, I'm all ears. What is it?"
Wren smile at me. "Sit first." He/she said and guide me at the bench under an old large tree.
As I sit down he/she sits beside me. "Our father called us all for an announcement and it was about the 'new born God'." He/she begins. "And this new God came from the Oblivion."
"What do I have to do with your father's announcement?"
"Because you have met and faced him, and not just once but twice. Although, the first time you see him you were unconscious that's why you couldn't remember it clearly."
"What do you mean?" Puzzled about what he/she said, I asked.
"The God that hurt Asim." He/she answered and I finally remember.
"Yes, indeed I met him and you were right, it was the second time I met him."
"And you also met the other 'new born God' or the 'half awaken God'."
"Your father knew it too?"
"No. He didn't because a strong one protecting the second 'new born God' the reason why our father doesn't know he already existed."
"But you knew!"
Wren smile and says. "Because I came from where those 'new born God' created. I'm also known before a 'new born God' before our father adopted me as his own."
What he said confused my mind and it seems Wren understands my confusion. For an instant the place where we were suddenly changes and I saw myself standing inside an old church.
"This is!" I was surprised seeing the whole place.
"The place where Ilmatar resides." Wren answered.
"Why you brought me here?"
"To give you a chance to choose," Wren simply answered.
"Choose to what?"
"To live a normal life or to find out the truth about your past… you choose."
I don't know what to say because if I let myself to know my past life then, will I'll be able to return my life back to normal?
"Almos already went back to his past life with the guidance of a Moon Goddess." Suddenly Wren announced that surprised me. "So, what will you do now?" He/she seriously asked.
