Authors notes

The first couple of chapters are based seven hundred years in the past (depending on how much story is needed). Phobos is alive this is based on the assumption that his magic allows him to live longer than what a human would normally be able to and also due to the fact that time flows differently in Metamoor/Meridian (it is mentioned that time apparently flows slower compared to earth but since Metamoor is a magical realm it is easy to assume that this can fluctuate so that sometimes a week can pass in an hours worth of earth time or within only a few earth days several Metamoorian years can pass etc).

In order to understand this story it is necessary to read my previous story broken. The Sentinels turned out to be unintentional by products of the original story. Due to my lack of knowledge of W.I.T.C.H I decided to create my own characters when I discovered I didn't have the knowledge to employ characters such has the tracker and so fourth (hence why frost has Vatheks descriptions in chapter three of broken).

New characters:

The Sentinels

A trio of warriors created by Phobos. Each takes it powers from a different element.

Strengths: each Sentinel has superhuman strength and speed. Each is highly trained in "hand to hand combat skills.

Weaknesses: each Sentinel requires large amounts of magical energy in order to remain active. When their power drains or after a battle the Sentinels must go into a dormant state (often described after a battle), if their power source expires the Sentinels must return to a dormant hibernating/stasis state. The sentinels are also weak against the raw energy of the heart of Candracar.

Anyway now that's out of the way on with the show. Oh yeah I don't own W.I.T.C.H or any of its copyrighted material.

Prologue: The Oracles gift.

Dreams. "One of the subtlest of but most effective teaching methods available. A dream could mean many things they could allow a person a glimpse into their unconscious minds. Perhaps show them an image, which might ultimately lead them to completely revaluate their lifestyle and beliefs. And they could also be used to show what had already come to pass.

Will Vandom, Irma Liar, Taranee Cook, Cornelia hale, and Hay-lin, are the Guardians of the veil collectively dubbed W.I.T.C.H.

They are about to battle an enemy so powerful it had destroyed them once already.

However the Oracle had used its vast powers to intervene and reverse the flow of time to grant the Guardians a second chance to defeat their enemy. Only the keeper of the heart of Candracar retained the knowledge of the Guardians first encounter with the creatures known has the Sentinels.

The Oracle used its vast powers to allow the Guardians to see the events of the past seven hundred years ago. When the Sentinels were created has it was witnessed by the guardians of that time a group of warrior women who were collectively known has the
