The Queen With The Frozen Heart - The Lightning In My Hand


Seeing that the warriors were safely away, Lusiru and Kuyllur sought the skies and called a bolt of lightning towards them.

It fell directly on the solid rock above the cave opening.

Smaller stone broke from the wall and stumbled down, towards the two brothers.

Together they called yet another bolt.


The fiery spear broke a huge rock and it tumbled down, rolling downhill, away from the cave.

- Come, the brothers called the warriors, we need to seal the entrance so that the jaguar men can never bother you again.

The warriors run towards the boulder.

Together with the two stars, using their spears and backs, they were able to move the rock to seal the cave entrance.


After that they gather all the smaller rocks and stones and to make sure that no one would be able to enter or exit the mountain ever again.

- What are you going to do, Killa asked his wife, you know you can’t change him back.

- I know I’m strong enough, Iluku answered, if only there were someone here who can. Someone strong enough, someone with enough magic to change shape when he wants to. And to who is strong enough to change other beings shape too.


- Are you saying I’m supposed to do it, Killa balked, is that why you just had to bring me here?

- Like you had anything better to do, his wife smiled at him, help him, help them all! They need you!

Smiling and shaking his head Killa moved closer to Amarun.

- Come away, girl, Iluku ordered Sisa, or he will change you into something else too.


Sisa had kept whispering to Amarun all this time.

She wanted to make sure he knew she was here and that she would not leave him, no matter what.

She could feel how much Amarun hated the old man, and feared him.

- I can’t leave him, she cried, he’s too scared. He will free himself and fly away!


- He will never be able to do that, Iluku reassured Sisa, the magic I put in the net is too strong. It will not let him leave.

- But he is so scared, Sisa whispered.

- Sometimes we need to let our loved ones suffer for a while, Iluku smiled sadly, to save them from a bigger suffering.

She looked Sisa straight to the eyes.


- Trust me, Iluku offered the girl her hand, Killa will make sure Amarun will be fine.

Sobbing softly Sisa slided from Amarun’s back.


- It will just be a moment, she touched her loved one for the last time, I promise!

  26. The character names, do they belong to a single country? It look very foreign to me. I like how you put the previous chapters inside too, this is good for people to look back!

    1. Character names are all from Ecuadorian Amazonic Kichwas. Sisa is a very common girls' name and means flower. Amarun is a boys' name, not as common though, and means boa. Among Colombian Kichwas it means the great winged snake, a mythological creature. Iluku is moon's wife, a mortal woman that fell in love with him and was turned into the great white owl, that is also called iluku. Killa means moon, and month, it is also the name of the moon deity. Interesting fact: the week is called Iluku Puncha, Iluku's Days.

  39. Calling a bolt of lightning to land to a solid rock isn't something easy to do. I think Lusiru and Kuyllur have some sort of special powers and communication with the gods to have made it possible.

    1. Lusiru and Kuyllur are the moon's twin sons and they are both stars in Amazonic Kichwa folklore. That is why they have special powers.
