Chapter 6 Remigius made a mistake


Chapter 6

Remigius made a mistake

Iseult went to see what he was doing. He was taking a book of magic formulas and he was memorising a formula. When he had finished, he went out from the palace and Iseult followed him.

Remigius arrived into the forest, where Tristam was with Rottbarth. When he saw the knight, he said:

“Good morning Tristam and Happy death!”,

Tristam replied:

“Death? But…what are you saying Remigius?”.

But Remigius was seeing Rottbarth and he was very surprised, because Rottbarth was wearing a torn feminine dress. Rottbarth went far away from Tristam and he saw Remigius with furious eyes. The magician turned his head to Tristam and started to pronounce the magic formula:

“I see you and your life, but now I know what will happen in the future..”,

On that moment, Iseult, ran between Remigius and Tristam, who shouted :

“Go away Iseult! It’s dangerous!”.

Tristam had a sword and he could fight against both Rottbarth and Remigius, but now Iseult was there and it was too dangerous for her.

The magician was continuing the formula, but he was changing some words, because he had forgotten a piece of formula, when Iseult appeared. He used new words, in fact he said:

“…is here now for you. The past is deleted and the present, too!”,

but he had to say “The future isn’t any longer for you”.

The new formula opened a temporal hole. So a fog wrapped up Iseult and Tristam. They fell in the void. After few seconds they touched the earth and they opened their eyes.

Then, the fog vanished and …

they were on a bridge on Canal Grande in Venice in 2009. Remigius went to the place where Tristam and Iseult were, but they weren’t there anymore. The magician, who was very absent minded (you have already understood it), fell in the temporal hole so he arrived near the river in 2009. But he slid and he fell in the temporal hole again, so he returned in the past. Before that…
