Stylx strolled along the woods in order to clear his head, he had strayed away from the starlights camp but was still within calling distance. The image of a crying Nephla was still in his mind, he had brushed aside Leinad to the huge surprise of everyone there with the free stream flow move, he was lifted up by Leinad and when he attempted to smash him into the dust, Stylx swung his torso got him by the waist and tossed him in the dust instead then with a jump that had his two legs held back by his hands, he had sent his knees crashing into Leinad's belly. The huge guy let out cries as he wriggled in pains across the arena but that was not what was troubling. It was the final face off that had him fighting Nephla that filled his mind, somehow he didn't face her for the lady that she was but rather he held nothing back in the combat. Nephla had given him a fight of his life but when she thought that she had gotten him well in her grasp Stylx locked her in to a neck choke with both l
Jalib was rolled in to the midst of the starlights accompanied by the Queen and her personal bodyguards. She told the starlights that she has finally handed them the support the seven nations had in store for them through the rescue and returning of Jalib. "It is now up to you people to return this favour by righting every wrong that you must have done with your God and stepping out to deliver the seven nations from the torment of Gogla" She concluded as she hastily began to leave after explaining to the Eeries that her people needs her after Gogla had destroyed their homeKylem had trailed the Queen and her company through the cart and was now able to locate the terrains where Jalib was being kept and also where the starlights have been hiding all these while, news had it that they were dead but alas the children of light still liveth. He could still remember Gogla words to him after he had captured him thinking that Kylem had tricked him with wrong information about Jalib's
As Stylx drew closer to where Nephla lay, her father's eyes that were full of tears met with his. She lay weak and look helpless. Stylx has warned her about going alone to the rocks when Gogla was spotted around the outskirts of their settlement. The anger in him made his stomach burn, Nephla looked at him and whispered "I am sorry". Stylx carried her outside and dropped her gently on the ground as he sat with her, " Don't worry dear, I am here now, you will be alright ok" Stylx replied calmly. Gogla felt the presence of a starlight touch on his host body, he became angry for being disturbed as he emerged slowly, Stylx stepped back a little as he drew out his flame sword which Weoss had activated for the Starlights the day he was chosen. Gogla was going to feel the wrath boiling inside him and he had no plans of giving it to him gently. "Don't fight boy" Weoss warned "She was stubborn and disobedient, let her suffer the consequences of her actions" the Lion warned further. "What abo
Mawly only son became Stylx's responsibilty, he ensured that the boy never had any reason to miss his dad or lack love. Nephla was also at hand to play the role of a mother as she visited always to take care of the boy's meal and other welfare issues. The boy simply called Stylx Dad and Nephla Mum, he never knew that they were not his biological parents. Each time Nephla came around to prepare meals for the boy, Stylx would simply walk up to the roof top and gaze at the seat of flames, even when she would bring the meal to the rooftop because the boy love to be with Stylx, he would always keep his gaze away from her and only steal glances at her when she pretended not to be aware, it was one rare occassions that he would look at her to smile, it's either he does the smiling when he greets Nephla for the meal as per the little boy's asking or he does it when Nephla makes a compliment about him to the boy. Nephla was getting uncomfortable with Stylx attitude but was waiting for the ri
In the land of Onyx, Mawyl family were known as the most prominent in the whole kingdom. Eeries and army heads were mostly picked from this lineage as their name spoke volumes not only in Onyx but among the seven nations as well. Everyone was expecting either Nephla, her dad or Colx to be in the nominees for the seat of power but surprisingly their names were not among the top three candidates when the final rounds of selections were announced before the day of the elections, instead a Stylx of no strong origin made the list basking only on the basis of his leading of the starlights to a successful reclaiming of the captured Onyx. This didn't go down too well with some of the elites in Onyx as the mumurings could be heard on practically every spot having one or two influential people's presence. How will be the first mortal king of Onyx be someone of no strong background or having the backing of a legitimate lineage and family name. Even though no open confrontations or face off wer
"Ouch" Nephla shouted as she cut her fingers with the little knife that she was using to peel some apples. She dropped the brown headed piece of metal as she pushed aside the little basket that had the apples to a side. Standing up, she made for her room where she got some piece of clothing that she used to tie the bleeding area. "Won't you treat that?" Her father asked as she was shocked at his sudden appearance. "You have been quite giltery ever since the day Stylx was made King, you have to understand that things have changed and he can't be always available like before anymore, he is no longer your friend Neph but your king, it is our duty now to give him the respect that he deserves" He continued as he brought out a little box that had some ointments and laid it on the tabls beside Nephla. "Soon he will be choosing his queen so for you not to be too heartbroken or disappointed, I think it is better that you start forgetting about him now. Nephla sighed as she opened the box abs
Stylx watched Nephla as she slept soundly beside him, he smiled as he gave her a kiss on her forehead. He could remember their first mistake in those days when the starlights were chased out of Onyx, their bout in the training camp of the starlights as they were building an army. He could still remember vividly how he made Nephla tap out when he locked her arms in his legs and even the sound of her arm breaking was still loud in his eyes. He pulled her close and cuddled her tightly, Nephla made low sounds as she awoke gently, staring into the eyes of her beloved, she noticed that his eyes were getting watery. "What's wrong my king?" She asked as she tried to wipe off some of the drops that were now crawling down his cheeks. "Please forgive me for hurting you badly in the past" Stylx said as he held her tighter, with his eyes firmly shut. Nephla smiled, sat up and kissed his shut eyes gentle which made them open gently. "It's alright my love, all are now in the past, if the story had
Leaning by the doors he just slammed shut, King Stylx slid down the doors and crashed to the ground. He had always wanted to be king but this task before him was undauntly fearful and scary. How can he face off with creatures of time and entities that once had Weoss wounded. He had no Gogla or fairies to help him with this, this wasn't about armies or manpower like the librarian said earlier, this was a battle of the supernatural and ancient powers. He still doesn't know the full picture of the whole story jugding from what the librarian said about uncovering the full story when they were to converge later on. He could still remember what Weoss had told him the night after which he was crowned king, he didn't read much meaning to it but now it all made sense, every single word the Mystic Lion said were now fitting togetherAfter the whole burdensome crowning event, King Stylx had retired to the royal chambers. Smiling at the sculptor of him in the centre of the pathway to the
Stylx moved gradually into the cave as his name kept resounding on the walls due to the persistent calling of it by Weoss. He was scared because he knew that no one had seen Weoss and live, it was eithed the mystic lion was in its floating form or He speaks through intermediaries in order to pass His message across. As he approached the place where the name calling was coming from, he began to feel the heating effect of Weoss presence as he made to continue, he heard a voice that order him to stop, remove his sandals and proceed carefully in as Weoss hated the sound of footwears when in His presence as He felt the sounds were like impurities to His hearing. Stylx walked in carefully as he could hear the little rumbling sound of Weoss breathings. Then for the first time in his life, Stylx saw the figure of the Mystic Lion through the shadow it casted on the wall with its image, he knew best not to pry further in order to discover the full viee of Weoss as he knelt down, bowed his hea
