"Shit…" I muttered.Suddenly there was a rumbling sound and I realized the maze was shifting.“Oh this is getting better and better,” said my uncle."We've come this far, so we can't give up," said Sarah."Ares is still injured," my uncle said again."I can handle this, just a little scratch," I said, groaning and standing up. I tore off my T-shirt and put it on to bandage my wound which was bleeding again."We need to get outside so we can stitch the wound back together," Sarah said. "Anyone know how we can get out of this ever-changing labyrinth?" I asked. It's a lot harder now that I'm not in the Totem World and don't have the power from The Golden Tree, but the good news is, I'm used to the pain.“I have no idea at all,” replied my uncle.We stand in the middle of a changing maze, trying to find a way out. The walls of the labyrinth shifted and deformed rapidly, creating new passages and blocking our paths."There must be a pattern," Sarah said as she stared at the moving labyrin

We continued our journey with renewed vigor. We made our way through the increasingly dense forest, overcoming the obstacles and difficulties that appeared in front of us. Time passed and when night completely fell, we suddenly saw a faint light in the distance."Let me see!" Sarah exclaimed, pointing in that direction. "Is that the light from the Chamber of Sacrifice?"We hastened our steps, compelled by new hope. As we got closer, the light got brighter and clearer. Finally, we arrived at the place we were looking for.The Chamber of Sacrifice stood majestically in front of us. The building is made of black stone and filled with mystical symbols that adorn the walls. The huge gate opened wide, inviting us to enter the space inside.We entered cautiously, afraid of what might be waiting inside. The room was silent, filled only by a tense atmosphere. In the middle of the room, there was an altar with a faint light emitting from above.We approached the altar but gave no further instru

“Ares!” exclaimed my uncle surprised.But I didn't answer. I cut my index finger a little and dripped my blood onto the amulet. Instantly, the amulet started shaking in my hand. Golden light radiated from the small golden tree image within. We feel an unexpected energy fill the room around us.“I think you succeeded,” said my uncle.However, I don't know what to do after this."The Guardian of The Golden Tree, do you hear me?" I asked.No answer. I'm getting panicked because there are more and more ruins and it feels like we're getting cramped because of the lack of oxygen in here.“The Guardian of the Golden Tree! Hear me dammit!”In an instant, the atmosphere around us changed. The light radiating from the amulet filled the dark room. Then, with a gentle voice resounding in my mind, the Guardian of The Golden Tree gave his answer."Ares Jones… I've sent you back," said a very familiar voice."I need your help to save us from this collapsing Chamber of Sacrifice," I said."I'm in a v

I nod because I know what he means. Raccati is still someone who was expelled from the tribe because he was considered a traitor. I still don't know how she got to know Rex's father and why he's hanging out here alone and being called a traitor. Yet to me, he seemed like a good person. I was about to ask but I was afraid he wouldn't lead us to the tribe, so I decided to keep quiet. The most important thing now is to return to the tribe and find my father there."You're not afraid of heights, are you?" asked Raccati while spreading the wings behind his back.“Actually I…” Sarah said. But before Sarah could say anything, Raccati had already hooked something around Sarah's waist and she quickly hooked the same thing around mine and Uncle Arthur's waist too. A moment later, we were flying through the sky and Sarah screamed in terror. We all just held on to the ropes tied to our waists.In an instant, we were lifted up in the air, flying between the towering trees. The cool, fresh air hit

It feels like a dream I'm back here again. It was just over a week for me that I left The Totem world, but for them it was already ten years. I was so worried and my legs felt weak thinking about my dad. Where did my father go missing? I've been desperately trying to find my way back to find him, but he's not there.After a while of walking, we finally arrived at the Flaming Totem Tribe area. I saw that some people were surprised to see me, because they didn't expect me to come after ten years. However, happy to see me back, they welcomed me warmly.Rais, Queen Anea, Dil, and the other tribe elders immediately gathered themselves to welcome me. Rais, who now looks older with gray hair, stepped forward and gripped my hand tightly."Ares, son of Jonathan Jones, I never thought that I would see you again," Rais said in a hoarse voice. "You are a hero to this tribe."I smiled at him. "Thank you, Rais. I'm glad to be back here and see you all again."Queen Anea, Dil, and the other tribe el
