Are the Roswellians aware of the other timelines and what transpired in them?
No. Expect what she tells them. Max is party aware because of their kiss.
Did the Roswellians know about the pod chamber? If so, did they know about the granolith? Does the granolith only recognize Liz?
Afcorse, it's the same timeline as in the show when Max went to the city. Is going to go to the city. They know about the podchamber since before summer and they know about the granolith for a bit while. Well, the granolith always knows Liz but it also reacts to the four too.
Chapter 9
She wipes a few tears from her face with her sleeve seeing them. –“How long have you been here?”- she asks them. –“A while.”- Zan answers as the rest seem a bit out of place. –“So ya actually saw her.”- he continued and she nodded with a smile. –“Just like I remember her. I wonder if it was only my memory.”- she added and he shook her head. –“Please!”- he said with a goofy smile. Everyone looked at him.
”It’s a shame she didn’t see ya grow up. Noone could tell ya apart” – Liz smiled. –“True.”- she said and then looked at Max, who still seemed to be processing. She took a few steps towards him but her questions were still not dirrected to him. –“How’s Lonnie?”
”She’s okay. Rath’s looking after her.” – Serena answered her. Her eyes met Max’s, finally. –“Hi.”- she said, trying to start somehow. –“How was your mom here?”- he asked her right away. –“Her essance is part of the granolith.”- she said and the paused. –“This is gona take long so maybe we should go somewhere.” – she said and looked at everyone around them.
“No, here is fine.” – he said. It was the first time she realized his face was actually sharp. Like after he found her with Kyle in another life. –“Serena?”- she said, looking at him. She wasn’t going to allow him to take her easily.
”You sure?” – Serena asked and Liz nodded, without her eyes moving from Max’s. –“We might as well make seats ‘cos, like I said, it’s gona be long.”- she then said. Max, Isabel, Tess and Max looked at her, not understanding. –“God, do I have to do everything by myself. Serena!”- Serena walked to her and took her hand. They closed their eyes. Seconds later, as everyone turned around, two long couch’s appeared, one oppositive from the other.
Max, Isabel, Kyle and Zan sat on one side while Michael, Maria, Tess and Alex sat on the other one. Serena and Liz decided to stand. –“Alright. I’m sure you found the destiny book already.”- Liz said and Max nodded. –“But we can’t stranslate it.”- he added.
”Well, yea. Antarian language is very hard. I took me about 10 years if my old life and five to re-learn it here. I thought Serena to read it too.” – she said, looking at her friend. –“Why?”- Michael asked. - “Backup plan. Something I learned from your mother.” – they didn’t understand.
“If Max dies, you are the king in his place, Michael.” – she explained. -“Serena?”- she said and then moved into the shadows. Serena was a true storyteller, she saw that when she first met her, when they were still kids. She had told the story to her, along with Kal a million times, preparing her for this. It was strange how she spent most of her childhood preparing Serena to be part of her life. She didn’t realize it then but Kal once told her that she was preparing her to be her heiress. She didn’t understand it now. And she wouldn’t, not for a long time.
“There are five plantes in your star system.” – they nodded, knowing that. –“Yet, a long time ago for Earth, there was six of them.”- Max looked up at her. –“The sixth planet was called Ryctor and it was the ruling planet of your system. Now, the people of Ryctor, specially their royalty are very powerful. I mean, in the power sense.” – she paused, everyone looked at her at this point, their full focus to her.
“The Ryctor people held the granolith. The granolith is a powerful object. But it is only an object if you take away all it’s power. It grows stronger with each generations of rulers on Ryctor. To be more correct, with the death of every king or queen, more correct, queen, makes it stronger. Their children gain that power.”
“King Metpar and Queen Laqua weren’t so bad people. True, perhaps a bit cold. The queen gave birth to two children. A baby girl and a baby boy, twins. Now, the son would have been the heir but he was found a bit special. Yes, that special, Michael.” – she added to her story seeing Michael’s weird look.
“Kivana Eli and Khivar Xothorn.” – she finally said their names. Isabel looked at her. –“You mean, Khivar actually has the right to be on Antar?”- Max and Michael looked at her. Serena shook her head. –“I said, Khivar was special. The heir was a heiress, Kivana Eli. Now, this is a very powerful person. She the strongest in her entire family. She has aposolute control over granolith and she can access it so many way.”- she paused for a second. –“When you use your powers, you weaken because they are not really yours.”
“See, everyone had powers kind of in your star system. Only, the Ryctor people were strongest. Before you came here, Kivana Eli, realizing the mistakes that she had done, out simple jeleausy, she gave a small bit of her blood to each and every one of you, to give you more streight.” – she could see their confused looks. –“Jeleausy?” – Max asked. Serena nodded and looked into the shadow where Liz stood. –“I wouldn’t be fair for me to say the story.” – she said and then went to sit next to Zan.
Liz walked out of the shadows and took a deep breath. She had once told this story the dupes and they took it hard. She didn’t know how they would take it. –“Kivana Eli was about four years old when her father’s best friend Zannder Sr. came to Ryctor and killed him before her eyes. He did the same with her mother. But when he came to her and her brother, he couldn’t kill them. They were the heirs and they would claim it eventually but he couldn’t kill children. Instead, he took them on Antar and they grew with his own children. He thought that they wouldn’t remember. He didn’t know that Kivana had a mind of two, almost if she was thinking for her brother.”
“Through the years, his son, Zan fell in love with Kivana Eli and Velandra fell for Khivar. Everybody loved everybody. And Zan . . . he swore on enternal love and what not. And then he met Avarisa. Kivana Eli never understood it but he soon infromed her that he was so to marry the blond. Kivana Eli’s hard was crushed. But she learned to deal with it. And then on his wedding and corination day, he told her that he would make her a free woman and then marry her to his third command, Margon. But the new king didn’t know that Margon would be the first to stab his back.” – she took a deep breath. I felt like she was talking in one breath only.
“At that point, Zan was aware of Kivana Eli’s history. She went straight to Khivar and did something no man or woman had done before. She give him a half of her mind. She gave him so many knowladge and memories that . . . it destroyed his heart.”- she paused and closed her eyes, not allowing her tears to fall. –“After the wedding and the corination, she hushed Velandra to open to gates and that promised that she allow the end of her marriage with Ratos and marry Khivar. Velandra was her best friend and she believed her.”- Liz stared at Isabel, who seemed to have the hardest time understanding.
”Once the skins were in town, Khivar joined her. She killed Avarisa before Zan’s eyes but what she didn’t expect was that Khivar would turn his back on her. He killed Zan before her eyes and then Ratos. Velandra’s heart was broken that she killed herself, in the belief that it was ll her fault.” – she walked to Isabel. Isabel looked up at her with tears in her eyes, as if she could rest now. –“It’s not your fault and it never was. Nicholas never knew the story, Isabel.”- she told her and then turned around, sighing.
“After that, Khivar prepared a corination for his sister. He couldn’t become king because even in the old system, she was meant to be queen. What he didn’t count was that she would turn her back on him. You see, when Kivana Eli was about 12 or something, she came across a cave. She found the queen inside with ten pods.” – Michael looked at her, lost. –“The queen told her that their future teller read that in the future, a great evil would take and she need to protect her children. She made a clone of the woman that she was told would be her son’s wife.”
”Who were the last two?” – Michael’s question stopped her. She looked at him. –“Two clones of Kivana Eli.”- he narrowed his eyes not following. –“Queen Myra was not stupid, Michael. She knew how son looked at her. But she also that he would marry by then. But she needed there for her son’s support. She didn’t know that it was all fault. How could see? The granolith hides his own.”- she said.
“She returned to cave later, the day of corination and she gave a bit of blood to the eight pods and almost took a whole bunch her to her clones. She barely made to the palace alive, only to kill herself.” – she said and looked down. –“Withotu Kivana Eli, Khivar is just a man by the throne, dictating. He has right over it. Only Kivana Eli.” – she finished.
”So we need them. The clones of Kivana Eli.” – Max suddenly began speaking, ready to jump. Liz looked at him and shook her head. –“They were born and they grew up, the let Kivana Eli free and she was sure that she did all the right things. Until the end when she realized that she failed. Why? Because she trusted her brother, believing that he was still her baby brother. When she killed herself, she let the ment hat she loved return back time.”- she answered and looked down.
“Who?” – Tess asked. –“Me an’ Max.”- Zan answered her. Max looked at him and realized he was right. Her memories. –“I healed you that life, didn’t I?”- she nodded. –“What about the other one?”- Isabel asked.
“I couldn’t afford another one. So played around.” – she said with a weak smile. –“That’s what yout old me, right?”- Tess asked, she nodded. –“Nasedo raised you in that time. He made a deal with Khivar. Max knocks up you and you deliver his son and the three of them and you’re a home run.”- she explained. –“Don’t worry, you’re safe from him.”- she added, with a smile.
“What else did you change?” – Max looked at her. Their eyes met. –“When I was five, I left for L.A., the last time, you healed me so I had to tell Mari aand Alex. And I thought that I brought them all into this. It turns out I was wrong.”- she stopped talked and sat on the floor silently, staring into the light that the granolith gently produced in the old pods.
“Who is Kivana Eli?” – Tess suddenly asked. Everyone looked at her and then at Liz, who said nothing. –“Liz?”- Max called her. She looked up at him. –“I am.”- she finally said. –“I was. I’m not even sure anymore. I’m not sure if I even Liz Parker anymore.”- she added and shook her head.
Max didn’t react right and before he knew it, Zan walked over to her, kneeled before her and rapped his arms around her. She rested her head on chest. - “Shh, we’re not blamed for the sins of our fathers, remember? Your mother’s rule? It’s use on us too. We will not be blamed for the sins of our past-lives. Alright?” – she nodded gently and continued to lay her head next to his heart.
After a moment, she looked up at him. –“I need to go home.”- she finally said and got up, leaving Zan there. –“Everyone, up!”- Serena suddenly said. They did as she told and the couch’s dissapeared. Isabel looked at her. –“It was part of her imagination. She’s not here anymore so neither are they.”- she explained and walked to Zan, taking his hand, for him to get up.
