Black Gem on the Hill

Black Gem on the Hill
Natural disaster, it happened again





"I'm not a thief." The boy began to lose consciousness and fell into the arms of his mother.


"Mother tau Gami....I know...." Yume smiled as she rubbed the small back of Gamiroku.


The woman also carried the body of her adopted child on her shoulders, through shady trees and many mounds of land that almost made her fall.


While in the palace, Selima was sitting while staring at the painting Asuri who is her biological brother. She was incessantly crying, this marriage, actually Selima was already in a match with another prince.


But Goidam forced both Selima's parents on the grounds to strengthen the fraternal rope between the two kingdoms, what could he do? He can only accept destiny.


The death of her brother certainly makes Selima very sad, especially when hearing the story of 'the betrayal of her brother to the King'.


"Can I come in?" shira asked at the door.


"Please" Selima smiled and stood respectfully.


"Sorry I'm presumptuous, but isn't this the room of the late Queen Asuri?" shira's wiggle fingers trace the walls of her room.


"Yes." replied Selima.


"Why did you choose this room, while there are many other good rooms? In addition, the memories of your late brother will continue to make you sad" Shira said.


Shira is a Queen who likes to gossip, unlike other Queens, Shira's personality is more open. In contrast to Selima who has a hobby of daydreaming and weaving. Selima's personality is difficult to guess, sometimes she is cheerful, sometimes she is moody.


"My brother's memories will continue to live in me—even though I don't live in this room. I choose to sleep here because I like the scenery, moreover I can weave without disturbing anyone" Selima replied.


"Hm....I heard Queen Asuri gave birth to a disabled child like us, but why did Queen Sasha give birth to a normal child. How think? Is there a mastermind behind all this?" shira was curious.


Shira's words made Selima think hard, if considered, all of this would probably make sense. Her thought.


"I don't know, maybe because we're out of luck" Selima replied.


"I heard also that the son of the late Queen Asuri is still alive. There was someone who saved him from death, but to date all those arguments are still uncertain"


Over time Selima was upset because she continued to hear the name of her brother called, then told Shira to come out of her room, should be at this time, Selima had woven a cloth, instead of gossiping like now.


"out! You have disturbed my calm Shira!"


"Eheheheh....Kaburrr" Shira also ran as fast as she saw Selima who had boarded the apitam.


Then the woman tried to regulate her burning breath while staring out the window. Slowly she walked to the balcony of her room, as she set foot, the breeze began to blow away her long hair.


"I miss you, sister.." Inner Selima, her tears began to drip.


Shortly after, there was a giggling sound of a child. Selima turned his head and looked for the origin of the voice. He walked over to a large flower vase, behind which was a little girl hiding.


"Ssttt, I'm hiding from my mother" whispered Tara.


"What happened to your mother?" Selima squatted down to equalize her body.


"Mother told me to take a bath, but I didn't want to Ma'am.The water was so cold" Tara shook her head while making a 'Brrrrr' sound'.


"Where is your brother?"


"A little while ago, I caught Sister Tama and she's looking for me right now"


"Tara!!" shout Sasha.


"Ah that's Mom..." Tara started running behind Selima's back.


"Tara stop hiding!" Sasha folded both her hands on her chest, she stood in front of Selima.


"Don't get in my way! Selimah!" Sasha was about to grab Tara's body, but Selima held it first.


"Sorry Queen, let me bathe Tara" Selima smiled warmly.


"This is the number of times the horn has appeared" muttered Yume while cutting the horn on Gamiroku's forehead.


The boy was still not aware of the horn that appeared on his forehead, because every time the horn appeared the Gamiroku will fall asleep.


"I don't know who your parents are, which obviously they have made you a victim of witchcraft." said Yume, he rubbed Gamiroku's head gently.


Gamiroku's bruised body and wounds make Yume shed tears, however, Gami is a strong boy.


He never gave up on his destiny, he also always accepted his friends, even though they always betrayed Gamiroku.


What can I do? A child who is always lonely, has no parents, must indeed survive his destiny.


Yume used Gamiroku not to cry when he was in pain, instead, Gamiroku had to smile when someone insulted or hurt him.


"In the vast prairie.....~" Yume started singing.


"There was a child....~"


"Melancholy......~"


"Receive destiny as it is....~" the woman continued to hum while rubbing the head of Gamiroku asleep on his thigh.


"Where destiny takes us away, that's our home......~"


Hearing the mother sing, Gamiroku woke up smiling and listening to her mother sing.


"Why did you stop singing?" ask Gamiroku.


"You're up apparently, you bad boy" Yume chuckled while tickling Gamiroku's body.


"Geli bu hahahaha" Gamiroku laughed so hard that he forgot his pain.


"Yes, I'll prepare lunch. You haven't eaten, have you?" ask Yume.


"Yes ma'am, then what about Gami's clothes?" tanyakanya.


"Mom bought a new one, put it on" Yume smiled as she left.


Then Gamiroku looked at the clothes he took from the merchant in the market, then he put them on and went back to the mother.


"Have you forgiven me?" tanyanya doubt.


"Mother has forgiven you" the woman smiled as she kissed Gamiroku's forehead.


The situation turned increasingly gripping when the ground shook so violently, Mother and child then ran out of her house to the open. But because his house was between the mountainside, they found it difficult to find an open place.


Not only did the ground shake, the rain came down heavily making longsong slopes to hoard their homes, the boy's eyes widened when he saw the house he had been living in vanished eaten by the ground.


"Gami Watch out!" yume shouted, an avalanche of land descended and covered their path.


"Mother I'm scared!!" peekik Gamiroku, he hugged the mother.


"Everything will be fine." Yume replied in a trembling tone, to be honest, the woman was in a state of confusion looking for a way so that she and her son could go downtown.


"Let's walk here" they chose a detour to go to the city center, the earthquake still occurred and made them difficult to walk, plus heavy rain made their view limited.


"What should I do.... Oh my God.." Inner Yume.


Then, a horse-drawn carriage slid towards them. Sontak Yume who saw the train immediately intercepted him.


"I beg you to let me and my son hitch a ride." he explained, seeing the condition of Gamiroku's battered body, the man finally allowed the two of them to board his horse carriage.


"EVACUATION OF ALL THE ROYAL FAMILIES!" shouted Goidam, the entire army and his family panicked because of the shock that destroyed part of the city.


"LET'S QUICKLY PROTECT TAMA AND TARA!!" he then ran and took Sasha and her two children and the others out of the palace.


The earthquake occurred long enough to damage even half the buildings in the city collapsed due to the natural disaster. In addition to material damage, casualties began to fall.
