Description

(Before reading I want to say that I may take longer breaks when doing these as I am working on them. The background I to extra time and im actually sincerely pleased with how it turned out. Another page may take two or three weeks as I am putting more effort into these. As of now hopefully everyone enjoys the 1st page and I will continue when I have time.)

Cover:  Shadows-of-The-Past-Cover Next:  Shadows-of-The-Past_Pg.2

*On a bright morning within the realms Spyro and his friends continue to journey through the world seeing what they have not seen within the world. Spyro and his friends are making their way through the plains with Spyro; Flame; and Rooke in the front; Ember; Tomic; and Enger in the middle; and Dreega in the back, but Cynder trails the furthest behind. Dreega looks back at Cynder and sees her trailing behind everyone slowly, and she slows down as she notices under Cynders’ eyes that she is very tired and exhausted. Worried about it she slows down to walk along to ask what is wrong.*


Dreega: “Hey Cynder you alright? You look really tired.”

Cynder: “I haven’t slept enough for two weeks, and my head hurts.”

Dreega: “Two weeks!?” Is something bothering you much?”

Cynder: “I’ve… I have been having a lot of nightmares, and it's been happening, and they have been getting worse everyday. I try not to think about it but everytime I try it gets worse.”

Dreega: “What are the nightmares about?”

Cynder: “They all show the same thing every time. It's me, but my… darkest version of myself.”

Dreega: “Your corrupted self? Is that all you see every time?”

Cynder: “Not just myself. I..  see other shadows, every time the nightmares happen I see more and more shadows appear.”

Cynder: “Every time I see them they become worse and look more monstrous, even my corrupted version of myself becomes scarier. I can’t even sleep knowing I feel as if they’re watching me when I sleep.”


*Spyro looks back and notices Dreega and Cynder trailing behind. He walks to them to see the reason why.*


Spyro: “Hey you two. Is there something going on… “Cynder?”  What happened? You look like  you haven’t slept in a month?”

Dreega: “She hasn’t been able to sleep, because she's been having nightmares for the past two weeks and hasn’t been able to sleep right.”

Dreega: “She's been seeing shadows and a shadow version of her corrupted version.”

Spyro: “Her corrupted self!?”


*Everyone else seems to hear what's being spoken and go to where they are to see what's going.*


Flame: “Hey Spyro is everything alright?”

Ember: “Is there something happening?”

Spyro: “Everyone give some space alright, and let us explain.”

Spyro: “Cynder you want to tell everyone or not right now?”

Cynder: “Well… it's nothing, it's just… “AHHHH!”


*Cynder screams in pain as her head aches a lot for an unknown reason.*


Dreega: “Put ice on her head!”


*Spyro breathes ice into his hand to form a curved piece of ice and places it on Cynders head as she holds onto it to ease the head pain.”


Spyro:  “Press it down gently and let it ease it.” 

Cynder: “Thanks I think it's calming down a bit.”

Ember: “What was that scream for?”

Cynder: “I don’t know, I just all of the sudden got a really bad headache.”

Flame: “I don’t think you can get a headache that hurts that bad all of the sudden.”

Rooke: “Could there be a reason for it if it's not natural?”

Dreega: “Wild guess here but could the Nightmares be the reason?”

Cynder: “What?”

Dreega: “The nightmares you have been having. Could they be the reason for it?”

Cynder: “How could they?”

Enger: “If I can say something I remember reading a book from a dream weaver that delves within the mind and there's a page within a chapter that talks about how trauma from one's past can affect one's self mind.”

Enger: “The reading follows from a dream weaver.” “From the mind of the many, trauma can happen from either one's past; event; or tragedy, and can affect one's mentality based upon how severe it can be. The more severe it is it can cause unnaturally effects to a being if it's very severe to an emotional degree. They either will see things that haunt them or relieve memories that have haunted them ever since and may grow worse if it's not taken care of by another dream weaver to help them accept it.”

Cynder: “Is that the real reason?”

Enger: “Could be, but the rest of the page has been torn since the book is very old.”

Enger: “Or it could be something deeper.”

Cynder: “Well whatever it is I hope I can just forget about, because I don’t want to keep remembering my past.”

Spyro: “Cynder this could be serious if it keeps getting worse.”

Cynder: “I'll be fine, I just need to keep my mind on things that help me relax.”

Tomic: “One way my mom did to help me relax was to reflect on the better things we do in life. Like how we accept a lot of what goes on and move forward, that's one way to help relax.”

Spyro: “Well lets keep going and hopefully find a place to relax so it can help Cynder.”

Rooke: “I did see a nice area with curved rocks. There may be some critters there, but we should be fine.”

Spyro: “Let's go then. Lead the way Rooke”


*Everyone moves on again to where Rooke is leading them to the place he talks about. Everything goes along peacefully, but Cynder seems paranoid as she feels as if she is watched by something she cannot understand. She looks back again and sees a glimpse of something walking by before disappearing, as if it was a shadow passing by.*

(I have yet to make references or new ones for Enger, Rooke, Tomic, and Dreega.)
