And this resulted to the sight before every ones eyes. Derek's hand was stretched out towards the elephant. The elephant had hit something. However it was not the same thing that the crowd had thought it was. Golden runes like a web floated around in a shield in front of the beast."No! No!! No!!!" Chief Lanki screamed angrily.The shock before their eyes was incredible. This two tribes were well aware of what a Writer was and knew that they ruled over the cosmos. Chief Sasha laid in the hands of one of her guards. Her eyes too watched in wonder at the feat of this writer. After all, she had only heard stories about them from her mother and nothing else. In fact, several chieves before her were not priviledged to see such a sight. She suddenly remembered her fight against Derek."So he had been going easy on me after all. As expected of a child of destiny." muttered chief Sasha, "Their ways are always mysterious. She did not know that during the fight she had with Derek, he was not in
"Excuse me Master Writer! but did you say Crystallin looking things?" Chief Sasha asked as she approached. Her steps were majestic. She did not in any way look injured at all. In fact, her skin looked far better than it did before. "Master Writer! You have already met two of the tribes that are supposed to guard against the corrupted rune. I think it's time I tell you about the last tribe." She took in a deep breath of air. "But I must warn you, there might not be what you expect them to be.""Your injury. How did you...?" Derek wanted to ask, however he suddenly realized that they were more people around. These were warriors that had been injured from the just ended fight. And then he felt that warm energy again and he looked behind him. And there they were. The two lanterns, hovering and glowing brightly high up the cavern. he couldn't help but noticed that the wounded were carried under the floating lambs and soon enough, their injuries were all gone.It was easy for him to link wh
"What if i tell you there are not moons but in actuality, those are the fractures." She had a hand under her chin, "I will say that those two must be the Air and Lightening Fractures. And the sun in the day time, i will say it should be the fire fracture. Am I right?" She turned and asked chief Sasha.chief Sash nodded at her words. "That's correct. Some of the elemental fractures are naturally attracted to one another. Just like how the earth came to our water, so did the Air and lightning attract to form the two moons. Which only leaves the fire fracture that roams around giving us day. Over a long period of time, these fractures have slowly created a world with atmosphere."The chief sighed, "On the other question about the creatures, lets just say that they don't exist.""I don't understand," Derek clearly stated."Well, it goes like this. this world is called a spirit world for a reason. Those creatures are the spirits. The thing is that, the energy of the corrupted royal rune at
And since the fake soul runes Derek had given to Aesir and Madeline were a copy of his own, it was not hard for a connection to be made."Maddy! is something the matter?" Derek asked Madeline as he saw that she was still in thought."Oh! It's nothing much." Then she turned to Chief Sasha. "I still don't get one thing. Why is aura nearly useless here?""Actually, it is not. it's just that the seal is weak, therefore, the corrupted rune is using this as an opportunity to grow it's strength." chief Sasha explained, "however, we have developed a method that allows our aura to remain intact and toxic to the corrupted rune.""Oh! really!? How? please teach me." Madeline requested."Of cause I can. However, it is not going to be easy and it is going to be very demanding." Chief Sasha added."Right now, we need to find a way to get Tiny back. And then we are going to look for Lydia." Derek stated."I agree! we need to find those two." Aesir nodded.Derek ran his hands through his hair as he s
"Yes!" Even as Derek answered, he could not help but have flashbacks of Maria's blood running down his fingers.There was sudden silence amongst them. This was an infectious mood. Even Chief Sasha that had never met Maria kept silent, at least she understood the difficulty of losing a loved one."That means the problems waiting for you back home must be a lot! I'm I right?" priestess Ada asked."I really do not know how to explain them. But something like that." Derek answered.Priestess Ada sighed. "Okay! i can now boldly say that you did not come here as a result of the messages we sent to the Royal and noble families. You are here because you are lost? Am I right!?"Derek nodded. Meanwhile, Madeline could not help but be impressed by this old woman's wit. "We got ourselves in a bit of a mess with our zodiac gate and then the spatial storms took us here." Madeline replied."Oh! Then you are very lucky. Most people would have been dead by now. Spatial storms have been known to be ve
"okay! It is settled then." Madeline clapped. "You guys go get Tiny back, and Gina and I stay here and keep watch."Derek looked at Aesir and both of them nodded."We are going to have so much fun together!" Madeline smiled as she hugged Gina tightly. "Hurray for girl time."Derek and Aesir looked at her weirdly for a while and then looked away. .....Meanwhile, on another place far from the mountain the Waka tribe dwelled, a particular broken and beaten army hurried through the wide gates of a city wall made of bones of dead animals. However, if one looked closely, it was very likely that some human skulls would be found here and there in the mix. This small city was actually the home of the Kaka tribe. They were a very large tribe and lived proudly in the open.Not only that, they also had infrastructure that was quite amazing to the eyes. This was a well thriving people. Although they had started out just like the Waka tribe, they had now grown to be very large. This was of cau
"Writer!" Chief Lanki whispered through his clenched teeth."Huh!?" Priestess cuppy stopped in surprise. "What did you say?"Chief Lanki panicked. Just a moment ago, he was struggling to talk. Right now, he was begging himself not to talk. His tongue suddenly became heavy."I asked you a question, BOY!" She puswd him to a wall with force."What did you just SAY!?" She asked again. Looking deeply into his eyes as her voice climbed several pitch."It's... A... A wri .. a writer!"chief Lanka panicked in fear, "We met a writer at their mountain. He destroyed our army like it was nothing."She looked away from him. The shadows all around extended from here body as she slightly suspended in the air like a punching bag leaking from the ceiling.The choke had stopped and the chief could once again breath. He panted heavily for life as he fell on the ground. The same life he had just boasted a two hundred year streak was nearly taken from him just like that.How ironic it would have been if
Meanwhile, back at the mountain that belonged to the Waka tribe, Derek sat crossed legged in a cave assigned to him. This cave was by far a better one than the one he had and his friends had been sharing on first arrival. Also it was decorated appropriately and it even had a bed in the middle made of several animal fur. Derek had already given out instruction that he would loved to be left alone for a while, if not the entrance to this place would have been crowded by people. With rumours of the tribe having a writer as a guest, every body wanted to meet him. Also, tales of his marvelous feat from the battle earlier in the day had reached their ears.He was as good as a god to them at this point. At the entrance of the cave already lay all sorts of gifts for him. However, Derek was not all that interested in playing messiah at the moment. He just had too much on his mind. Too much problems that needed his attention. One of which was the pressing matter that both his women were mis
