My Queen Of Terra 63 Beauty Out Of Ashes

Before she drifted on to this part of the isle, she had antic.i.p.ated that she would be bored to death. Watching flying animals scatter around is not her kind of thing.

She didn't realize it would be this mind-blowing. They came across as spirituous and unburdened by anything.

When she was young, she constantly put the edge of her blanket on her neck and jumped from her bed. She believed it was a magic cape that would get her everywhere she wanted to travel.

She would command it to take her to Cheng Hospital, so she could play with her parents. And she would regularly believe that she did so as she flew all over the house. She would end up at the big frame of her mom and dad in the middle of their colossal stairs.

Zoe heaved a deep sigh as she recalled her mom and dad. If she was a birdie, she could probably journey to heaven and see them somehow.

Catching a glimpse of the crestfallen figure of Zoe, Koby started on his tour speech.

"Did you know that these fowls were once numerous on Norfolk Island? But starving transportees consumed them as food, so they were already endangered. They were sent there as a way of punishment. They were at the present times one of the rarest kinds."

Zoe glimpsed him. "Well, I'll be blown. That dumped me. I thought being a free feathered creature is nice. I didn't know they can also be tied down by other creatures, even with their prowess in the air."

Koby shrugged and looked up. "That's how it is in this world. There will always be the prey and there will always be the predators. If life is tough and you become the prey, just make sure that you will survive. Certainly the wheel will spin around, and you will toot sweet become the predator." She winked at Zoe before calling out to the domestic fowls.

Zoe squinted at him and ruminated on what she said. She felt she could relate to that one.

Life may have pushed her over with the dreadful events she had encountered when she was inexperienced. But perhaps in the present circ.u.mstances, the wheel is turning around. And it was presently her turn to wreak havoc on them.

She cracked her knuckles as she imagined herself as a big eagle. She was swooping down at top speed from a black thundering cloud to s.n.a.t.c.h its chosen victim.

Koby fired her up even more by calling on the warblers. One of them obeyed his commanding voice and with a swift motion landed on their feet. Zoe knelt down and extended her fingers in curiosity as she stared at its intricate details.

Koby smiled at her childlike wonder. He continued on, sharing information about these delicate species. "They favored us that they chose our lovely little isle as their humble dwelling habitat. They were now at 100,000, merely on this islet alone. Lord Howe Island is indeed a home for the ashes to become a beauty again."

Those words were melodious to Zoe's ears as she nibbled every bit of it. She stood up and looked around her and stared at the inspiring, impressive view in front of her. Everywhere she sought is exquisiteness to behold.

She was actually attracted to this region because of its aesthetic scenery. She was not informed that it is not just picturesque in its outside appearance, but in its soul and story as well.

She studied the pink-hued sky, which was tainted by the setting sun. The pa.s.serines were amazing as they flew in twos.

"Why are they doing?" She asked Koby, who was just staring at her. He was stunned at her innocent idealization of nature's gifts presented to her.

"Uh, them?" He cleared his throat as he was caught in the act. He fixed his gaze on them and beamed.

"Those were spectacular aerial courts.h.i.+p displays of our lovebirds. They do not just recognize this peninsula as a home, but also as a location to scope out their partner in life."

He gazed at Zoe, who was oblivious to him. She was expressing admiration to the couples showing their affection as they flew.

"You have got to be kidding," She muttered unconsciously. Is the lover of her soul really be on this landma.s.s? She has not entertained guys before.

She believed there was someone out there who is meant for her and who will not leave her no matter what. Idealistic, as some may say. But she doesn't want to entrust her heart to anyone and be left again anymore.

There are times that she decided to allow some men to court her, but something was always holding her back. She rejected them each and every time. She was waiting for that man who would gain her full confidence.

She tried to catch the last rays of the sun's light on the canva.s.s of the sky. As she did so, she picked up a cloud formed like a man with long hair. He was wearing a prince wardrobe and is extending his arm at her.

Zoe rubbed her eyes and looked again. 'Was that Raigon?'
