"Cortney, what were you thinking?" I asked Cortney as Bloodette hurriedly deserted to eat her forbidden fruit.

"What? I had to be harsh. Otherwise, she would get herself killed by stepping into the river of soul. As you said, the river of souls is no place for the living. Like hell, I would let that happen on my watch." Like every ignorant oblivious parent who thought their teenage kid would listen to them and have no idea what they were up to, Cortney too believed that her yelling at Bloodette did the job.

"..." I was speechless. All I could do now is hope Bloodette will be the smarter one and make a wise decision.

…

"Forbid me? No, you don't." Inside Sarah's bloodline, Bloodette stood before the bloodline bridge that connected the material plane to the foreign plane. Bloodette was hesitant to cross the bridge, but she remembered Cortney's words turning her hesitation into foolish pride, which made her stupid enough to forget all her reasoning and start to cross the bloodline bridge.

As Bloodette stepped on the bloodline bridge, she felt the presence of the foreign entity influencing Sarah get stronger. The presence on the bloodline bridge was strong enough to give Cortney extra data, which she could not access through the weak presence in Sarah's bloodline. The new data that Bloodette gained access to was the strength and location of the foreign entity.

After conducting another set of analyses on the presence of the malicious entity, Bloodette figured that the entity was a soul of the demigod realm. And right now, it was nearing the other end of the Bloodline Bridge. Finding this new data, Bloodette knew most of what her friend had deduced was correct.

Her friend was correct about the malicious entity being a demigod soul, which meant he was probably right about the foreign plane being the River of Souls. Which meant that if she were to recklessly step a foot on the other plane, then she would face imminent death with no room for struggle or resistance. Realizing the truth, the forbidden fruit no longer seemed tempting to Bloodette. Instead, she felt disappointed.

Despite the other reasons, Bloodette's main reason to explore the foreign plane remained the same. She wanted to find a new plane to escape from the dungeon seal, but now it was clear that the foreign plane was indeed the river of souls with no place for the living. The little hope Bloodette had in her for an unexpectedly favorable outcome died. With this, Bloodette's mood went down in the dumps. She felt lost and confused.

But soon, she came out of it, remembering the caring friends she had back home. Hence she picked herself up faster as she knew that a crisis was heading their way, and she had to take care of it. Otherwise, the lives of her loved ones will be in danger.

Bloodette's feelings were simple but very strong, which most of the time made her appear to be naive or stubborn, or unreasonable, but right now, those simple feelings of hers made her courageous and unyielding in the face of the fierce crisis.

Bloodette did not know how to face the incoming threat, but the best option they had come up with was to destroy the Bloodline Bridge before the soul tried to invade from another plane. Just when Bloodette wanted to do that, a sudden question struck her mind, what does the River of Souls look like? Is it supposed to be a plane? then why is it called River of Souls?

Many questions about the river of souls ran in Bloodette's mind in a matter of seconds. Until finally, her curiosity got the best of her as she decided to stand at the edge of the bloodline bridge and take a peek at the river of souls and check if it really was a river. Her friends warned her about stepping a foot in the river of souls, but nobody told her anything about peeking at the river of souls. With the bold idea in her mind, Bloodette decided to hurriedly satisfy her curiosity before the malicious soul presented itself.

Unable to suppress her curiosity, Bloodette restarted her paused journey on the bloodline bridge. As Bloodette neared the end of the bloodline bridge, she could sense the existence of the other plane on the end of the bloodline bridge grow stronger. This sensation became more apparent as she got closer to the other end of the bridge. While moving closer, Bloodette also kept tabs on the malicious entity's location.

At the same time, Bloodette noticed that the other plane's existence did not give off any kind of vitality. It was as if at the other end of the bloodline bridge, there was nothing. This was puzzling as Bloodette clear could sense the foreign plane, but it felt like there was nothing there. How can one feel nothing when they can sense there is something? This statement was contradictory in itself. But considering that there is nothing after death, the statement explained itself. The river of souls was a vast nothingness where departed souls traveled for an eternity to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Walking towards the end of the bloodline bridge, Bloodette's thoughts were more active and enlightening compared to the thoughts she had her whole life. It's as if the sense of the river of souls at the other end of the bridge influenced her to think more profoundly. But these thoughts were unnecessary, yet they kept popping up in her mind diverting her from her purpose of heading towards the end of the bridge. It's as if the sense of river of souls influenced her mortal attachments seducing her to forsake them. Realizing that she was thinking something unnecessary, Bloodette shook her head, trying to regain herself and remembering what she was up to. Learning what the mere sense of river of souls was doing to her soul which had once reached the pinnacle of realms, Bloodette was shocked and frightened.
