Summary

In the realm of Zariel, every person can manipulate one of the four elements their zodiac belongs to - Fire, Earth, Air, or Water. Tamie Wingfield dreams to become the greatest Zodiac Master of all time. For that, she decides to join Rose Cruce Order, which her elder brother Nick Wingfield belongs to, as one of the highest ranks - the Elder. But Tamie has a big problem - she is a Libra, and out of all Zodiac, Libra is the only inanimate object, rendering it the most powerless of all (or so it is believed).How will the girl of the most powerless zodiac sign manage to become a grand Zodiac Master?

Chapter 1: New Friend on the Train

“Wow, I didn’t imagine nature was this beautiful in Rosenweld… Sure is the most beautiful country in the whole realm of Zariel, as they say”.

Tamie was looking out the train window, watching evergreen trees and colourful flowering fields slide by as the train roared forward.

“Yeah, feels good to be here again”.

She started and looked aside, to see a robust man before her, nearly two metres tall, with weird long bushy blond hair, two tied bangs framing his face from both sides, and those sky blue eyes, blazing with the inner fire… Truly a weird one.

“Uhm…” her lips formed in a polite smile as they often used to when meeting talkative strangers who broke her peace.

“Whoops, sorry, I think that came out loud,” the guy chuckled and scratched his bushy hair.

“Oh, it’s fine, really,” Tamie smiled and got back to looking out the windows.

“But sure it is awesome to be back here again,” the man spoke once more, apparently wanting to start a conversation with this tiny brown-ponytailed cute girl he had just stumbled upon. “So many years…”

“Aha…”

“So, I assume, you’re new to Rosenweld?”

“Oh, yes,” Tamie shrugged and turned to him – no, he didn’t plan to give up. Ugh…

“May I ask which country you’re from?”

“Mandragore”.

“Oh, quite a tiny country, that one… Anyway, it is nice to meet you. I am Erik,” he stretched his hand out.

“Tamie,” the girl shook it, a little timidly.

Erik caught a glimpse of Tamie’s brass-chained Libra sign necklace, and a weak smile twinkled through his lips:

“So you’re a Zodiac Mistress?”

“Oh,” Tamie noticed his gaze onto her necklace. “Yes, but I’m only a beginner. I’ve come to Rosenweld to join an order”.

“Ah, that’s quite nice, being a part of an order! So many pleasant memories…”

“Oh… So you are a Zodiac Master too? Where’s your medallion?”

“I don’t like showing off so I keep it hidden. But as you ask…” Erik chuckled, grabbed a golden chain on his neck and pulled out a sun medallion with a red gem in the center.

“No way, you’re not only a Zodiac Master but a Celestial Lord?!”

Tamie couldn’t believe her eyes – there were only twelve Celestial Lords, those who had achieved the supreme power of their respective sign, thus, had received their planetary necklaces. As this guy wore the Sun medallion, it meant he was a Leo.

*One of the strongest Zodiac signs and he’s travelling in a third-class wagon?!*

“Yup! So I guess you understand why I hate showing it off,” Erik hid the necklace back inside his red robes.

“B… But why? You’d receive recognition from everywhere!”

Tamie was stupefied – if she had such a necklace, she’d show it broad open! She even boasted with her current miserly brass-chain Libra amulet.

“Well, I prefer to have a calm life. I don’t want crowds running on my tail every time”.

“Oh, you’re quite modest, then”.

“But, I’m very pleased to meet you, Tamie. Who knows, once you grow stronger, you might be a good challenge”.

“Huh? Wh… What makes you think that? You don’t even know me!”

“I have a hunch,” Erik winked.

Tamie laughed. This guy seemed somewhat… charming now. Duh, to think she would actually like some boy after all these years! But Rosenweld was a cool country.

“So, which order are you planning to join?”

“Well, I’ve got an invitation from the Rose Cruce. My brother’s a Sage there, so…”

“Woah, a Sage of the Rose Cruce? You don’t mean Nick Wingfield?”

“Yeah, it’s him. W… Why so astonished?”

“Celestial Lord of the Moon?!” Erik was shocked. To think that guy’s got a cute little sis such as this girl… Out loud, he only smiled politely: “Well, not all Celestial Lords know each other, but Lord Nick and I have often had matches. The Water and the Fire are opposite elements, but when the opposite zodiacal planets – the Sun and the Moon – add up, you get complete turmoil. You understand, right? Your brother is one of my rivals, Tamie!”

“Oh, my, so that’s why you got so worked up! I knew Nick was considered a genius Zodiac Master, but to be this serious… Amazing!”

“Well, now when I know you’re Lord Nick’s sister, all I can say is – here’s my signal”.

Erik touched Tamie’s electronic bracelet – the calling gadget that worked as a cell-phone in the Zariel realm. People could use them to talk to each other when putting in each other’s ‘signals’ – special signs that identified them.

When Erik let go of the gadget and Tamie looked at it, she noticed three symbols – the Sun, the Lion, and the Dragon (this latter was apparently his spirit sign, determined by the year one was born in, as far as she knew).

*Amazing…* she thought. *Such a strong combination!*

Erik got Tamie’s signal on his own gadget: two symbols – the Scales and the Tiger.

*Hmm, quite an interesting combination…* he thought. *This girl has a lot of things to choose from.*

“Whenever you find yourself in trouble and Lord Nick’s not around, ring me up for help, Tamie Wingfield!”

“Haha! Thanks a lot, Erik!”

*Ringing such a guy for help… That would surely work out!*

The train gave out a whistle and stopped. They had arrived at the station.

“Woah, we’ve arrived. Well then, I guess it’s my time to go. Until next time, Tamie Wingfield!” Erik shook her hand again and walked off.

“Goodbye!”

Tamie waved a hand. Then she hastily grabbed her bag and rushed out of the train, to meet the new world she would soon start to live in.
