Michael said that I must never tell Cera... Radueriel... The truth... Everything that's happened so far in his life will be jeopardized... But I'm so tired of having to lie to my son... He thinks that he's keeping a secret from me.
Radueriel thinks that he's from another world and not my son. I don't know how he'd react if I told him, and there would be consequences for me...
"Michael said that when the time was right... He'd tell him the truth... Cera... Radueriel... Our son... The whole story and why everything has gone the way it has."
I should enjoy the time I have with him now, and I'm actually excited to show him the lands being developed tomorrow. Even though I'm not a fan of flying, it's better than taking a carriage or walking.
The teleportation gates are what we've been using lately, but I'll get to spend more time with him if I let him fly us there. Radueriel doesn't know how hard it's truly been for me... Lying since the first moment I met him.
He's come a long way since I saw him that day... And it helps that I'll be able to talk to him any time I want now using the system. He's probably talking to some of his family from Earth... The family that took him in...
Michael said that they'd believe he is their son. False memories would be placed within their minds. That Radueriel would have to undergo a trial... One that would take everything he had loved on Earth away from him...
When the trial was over... He'd find what was needed to turn back the clock... Blue Chaos was an identity that Michael created. A way to guide Radueriel in the beginning. We've told so many lies to so many people...
"When you do learn the truth one day... I hope it's you who can forgive me... And I pray that your mother from Earth can accept this truth..."
I couldn't imagine what she'd go through when this is revealed... The child she loves dearly isn't even hers... That would break anyone's heart... Just thinking about it makes my stomach turn a little.
My eyes are starting to get heavier, and I'm getting ready to sleep. My mind drifts back to running away, and I've come to a decision. I'll remain here and continue the plan The Almighty Father has...

I've talked with Mom and Dad for a little while and checked in with Marcus too. They're all doing good, and they're actually meeting up in Avalon now that they're done with their tier-up quests.
Which means I'm the last person in our little group who hasn't finished his tier-up quest. It's funny cause I was wanting to be the first one done. But it's taken some time to find Kris Martim. Sally getting a hold of me was also nice.
She's making a lot of ground in her search for her father, which is awesome, in my opinion. All on her own. She'll be fine on her own, and I do hope to help her in person before she finds the man. But at the rate she's making progress, I don't know if that's possible.
"Everyone is doing great and thriving on their own... I miss them... More than I thought I would..."
Mainly my family... The only person I haven't talked to yet is Hailey. I'll be honest. I'm not upset anymore about the prank she pulled on Sally that was meant for me. It was pretty eye-opening in terms of how Hailey and I function together.
I open my Friends Tab and click on her name. It's time that I have a chat with my sister. She's family, and I can't stay mad at her forever.
[I just got done talking to Mom and Dad. Checking in with you too. How have things been since you finished up your tier-up quest? I haven't heard from you in a while, and I'm getting a little worried. You wouldn't stay away for long even if I said to.]
The message is sent, and I wait in comfortable silence. I don't know if she'll get back to me tonight, but I do know that she'll get back to me. I don't know if Sally will ever forgive Hailey, but they're going to have to talk one day soon.
About 15 minutes go by, and I get a message back. I didn't expect an answer tonight. She must be on a quest or something.
[I'm doing good. It's been pretty boring without anyone I know here with me. Reaching out to me must mean that you've forgiven me, right? Cause I'm tired of being everyone's enemy...]
Now I do feel like a piece of crap. One that isn't worthy of being called a brother. I had a right to be angry, but I didn't have the right to make her feel like an enemy.
[I've forgiven you, Hailey. And you've never been an enemy. I was worried about you. You haven't gotten ahold of me in a while, and I figured that you were waiting for me to contact you. What have you been up to?]
I'm interested in what she's doing on her own. Being the wielder of a Legendary Class means she's got the ability to take on some difficult quests and make an impact wherever she is.
It takes a minute for her to respond, but she does, and I smile as I read it.
[I've actually been helping a small farming community that's being terrorized by bandits and monsters. It's the farthest south I've been so far. The heat is pretty crazy down here, but the people are amazing. I've also met the Brazilian Player Community.]
Different parts of the world were spawned and started at different parts of The Ancients World when the game was first released. South America had its own continent. Just like the rest of the world.
She's gone a pretty long way from the continent US Players spawned on. I guess she figured the farther away she was, the easier it'd be for her to handle everything that happened.
[That's awesome, Hailey!! I've never been to the home continent of the Brazilian Players. Not even in my old life. So you're getting to do something that even I haven't experienced before. I'm a little jealous.]
I am genuinely jealous that she's getting to experience the Brazilian Player continent. I've heard that it's one of the more beautiful places that The Ancients World had... I should be saying Gaia... I've always wanted to check it out, and now she's there having fun.
[Yeah, everyone is way nicer down here. It's hard to communicate sometimes, though. Finding Players and shop owners that speak English has been difficult. Many of which look at me like I'm an idiot tourist, which I hate.]
"Sounds like an adventure for the ages... I should tell her that Mom and Dad are meeting up with Marcus, and she should meet up with them too."
[I thought I should let you know that Mom, Dad, and Marcus are all meeting up in Avalon soon. Sally and I aren't done with what we're after, so it's still going to be a while.]
It takes a couple of minutes, but she responds.
[Mom and Dad got a hold of me a while ago about it. I've decided to finish all the things I'm doing down here before coming back up. Thanks for getting in contact with me. Love ya, little brother!]
She's doing good on her own, and I can only hope that everything continues to go well for her. Hailey deserves just as much fun and memories as the rest of us.
