I was walking by the outskirts of the big city and after walking for some time, I went into a small forest and was very surprised when I heard a cry of pain, a lamenting voice, a sad weeping and to my great surprise, when I approached it very quietly, there was a beautiful being who was deadly wounded with blood coming out of his lips and red scarlet rivers from his eyes.
That body was shaking and it seemed that life was leaving him, then I asked what had happened, who had hurt him so much and who could have had such bad heart to inflict so much harm. Then, I came closer in order to help him and in a breathless voice he said: " No, no, is much better that you leave because if they see you by my side, they will do the same to you, and them may even come back showing no mercy and the last drop of my blood will be shed on this ungrateful place."
Then, I said, " This cannot be" and I tried to help him but he said: " Don't do it because you cannot imagine whom you are carrying in your arms." But of course, I did not let him fall and brought him close to a transparent and clean side of the river, where I could wash his wounds and allow him to rest. Then, I asked him again, what had happened and looking at me with infinite and penetrating eyes, he answered. And when he spoke, the air became icy and his voice seemed to come from everywhere: " The one who sent me has put the curse of misunderstanding on me, I cannot judge the ones who wounded me, their fear, misunderstanding, has made them worse than savage beasts."
"You intrigue me" I said but don't hurry, don't get breathless, have some rest."
And he replied: " I have not taken some rest for such a long time, going from place to place, traveling the earth and sometimes, I got tired and knocked a door , asking for a glass of water, for a place to rest, no matter if they had thorns, no matter if they have stones, but I got neither thorns nor stones, they closed not only their doors but their eyes, ears, hearts on me. And they insulted and cursed me, you are the only one who has tried to give me some relief in my endless journey."
I was more and more surprised but I wanted to help him since his story was very sad and I said: " Get some rest, is almost night time and the sun is disappearing, is much better that you get some sleep and tomorrow, we will find new paths and every thing will get better." And he replied: " Tomorrow, maybe, everything will change." And that field was covered by the starry mantle of the night and we both got some rest.
Next morning, I was awakened by the first ray of sunlight and tried to find him because I was afraid for him, but instead I found the field covered with colorful flowers and I also found a message written in a small table that seemed made out of bone because of its color, and it said: " Today, I had the mission of finding you but our meeting of yesterday was so special that today I am making an exception in my work and now I must hurry along my path because every time has a destiny and every destiny has a time. Sometime ahead, maybe more, more ahead, we will meet again but I don't want to leave you in this place, wondering, who was that being that you found badly hurt and full of blood, the one for whom you stopped your journey. I will share a secret but I am not saying good bye forever but until some day. Remember that today I had to meet you.
My name, the name that cannot be pronounced, is "angel of death"
