As they all stared at the ruined city of the dead, Esther saw the map suddenly made some words visible closer to the mountain cave in the map and she read the words which said: “words are not entertained in the ruined city of the dead so you must never talk no matter what”.

After reading the words, Esther called the attention of everyone to the words she read on the map and they found the warning ridiculous and hard to obey. Redrick said “so we don't get to talk in there?”.

“According to the map, it is a warning” said Esther.

“But is that possible? How do you expect us to go through such a dangerous place and not communicate with each other” said Hawk.

“Yes. What if we come across danger and then what? We still refuse to talk to each other” said Benjamin.

“Yes we remain silent in there until we safely get out there” said Esther.

“We have to do this. There is no other way on the map than this. I know it is hard to remain mute going through a safe place not to talk of a dangerous place b

    The princes, the princesses, and Lilia all unsheathed their weapons as they saw the skeletons getting closer to them, and at the same time looking at many more skeletons that continuously crawled out of the crevasse. Hawk, Benjamin, and Ryn try to take an animal form but they find it impossible and ask why then Esther says to them “there is no magic in here so since you are magical creatures the magic that always makes you change won't work here”.Hearing that, Hawk took Mike's sword saying to him that he hadn't fully recovered and he should sit this out. Mike, Benjamin, and Ryn were put in the middle since they won't be able to fight. Ramsay said to everyone “we will fight them pushing them backward toward the cave. We are going forward not backward”.“But aren't them too many for us to handle?” said Kylie.“Yeah they are but they are just skeletons so we should be able to handle them” said Noah.“They even have nice weapons. I even wondered what happened to them and where they got th

    Ramsay was surprised by the way Manqin fought against him. Ramsay was expecting Manqin not to be as good as the Marcs but Manqin seemed to be better than the Marcs. Ramsay knew it was going to be hard to defeat Manqin since he hadn't fully completed his training with the great Kings, couldn't use his magic, and the sword had no power inside the mountain but he had to find a way to defeat Manqin which he began to think of as he now fights Manqin using his defensive moves after using his offensive him that was fruitless against Manqin. Ramsay also wondered where Manqin learned how to fight in such ways or maybe because he is not a normal skeleton.Watching the fight, the princesses, the princes, Hawk, Benjamin, Ryn, and Lilia were shocked to see that Manqin was one hell of a fighter. The way Manqin fought made the princes, the princesses, Benjamin, Hawk, Lilia, and Ryn all doubt that Ramsay could defeat Manqin even though they were surprised by how Ramsay's skills had improved greatly du

Upon getting inside the room, Manqin revealed the eye in the room which was inside the wall, and then Manqin looked inside the eye with his red eye and the way out of the mountain revealed itself for them to see.

Redrick and Esther saw as the map made some words visible to them and they read it out loud “the wild forest is a maze and to get out of it safely you need to follow the path which the moon will light up when it is night. Don't ever get out of the path or else you won't make it out alive”.The princes, the princesses, Hawk, Ryn, Lilia, and Benjamin all sat down in front of the wild forest to talk about the wild forest and waited till night so the moon could light up the path. Ryn said “am in doubt that we will make it out of the forest alive”.“Why would you say that? Do you want us all to die?” Redrick asked Ryn.“You can see what it takes us to get out of the mountain and how can we be so sure that we will get out of the wild forest easily? I don’t think our

They were all surprised to see themselves tied to the trees by the vines surrounding their body and looked at each other. They also saw their weapons and other things on the ground right in front of them. Redrick said “as usual.. Always finding ourselves in trouble”, feeling down.“What the fuck are the vines doing?” said Benjamin.“Who knows? But I don’t think they are trying to kill us if we are still very much alive and not hurt even after they knock us out” said Kinsley.“What if they are just taking their time? I said it. This journey was a bad idea. Let's hope we survive this and make it out alive” said Ryn.“We all will. All we need to think about right now is how to free ourselves from these vines that are tying us down” said Noah.“And how is that going to be possible? First, these

    Redrick could do nothing but watch as the river soldiers attacked Esther to kill her while the fake Redrick smiled. The river soldiers were attacking Esther with their pointy and edgy fingers, and they seemed to be fast with their attacking moves as they partnered together so the only thing Esther could do was be defensive to protect herself since she had no weapon.Being defensive wasn’t enough for Esther to protect herself from the river soldiers because there was no way for Esther to hurt them and they just kept on attacking Esther which led to Esther being cut by their pointy and edgy fingers in the left arm.Seeing Esther get injured got Redrick anxious and he wished at that moment he could unleash hell on the river soldiers and the fake Redrick but he could do nothing more than to watch.Even though Esther was injured at first, she had no choice but to keep fighting if she wanted to live, and at the same time, she prayed for some miracle to happen.

    Escaping The River

    The Nylins are creatures that have the body of a tiger but they are bigger than the size of a tiger. They have long build-up necks, wings, and 5 tails. Their claws are longer and their fangs can’t be unseen. They are creatures who are faster on the ground and their wings aren’t for flying.The Nylins used their wings to protect themselves and also used their wings to fight since the edges of their wings have pointy and sharp edgy scales. The face of the Nylins is in the shape of tigers but it looks a little bit horrifying than that of the tigers.The Nylins attacked with their claws, fangs, wings, and tails since their tails are long and the edge of their tails is also pointy. The Nylins' tails are known to be poisonous which means when stabbed by the tail of Nylins you get dark crack lines in your body which will kill immediately because those crack lines attack the brain. Killing Nylins is not so easy because they are created for battles, and they have tolerance in battle which mak

    Redrick and Marcelo stood at a side in the cell and watched as the fake Redrick walked closer to Esther. Upon getting closer to Esther, the fake Redrick laughed and Esther knew why he did that. The fake Redrick stopped laughing and said to Esther “you know I underestimated you even though I knew how powerful you are. I thought I should be able to keep you in check until I killed you by slowly draining your magical energy but then you exceeded my expectation……”. The fake Redrick paused and walked a bit away from Esther before he continued with a smile “I am glad you came my way though because with your powers, I can make the world see whatever I want them to see. I can even take a mortal form and maybe rule, but there is something I want to know”. The fake Redrick walked closer back to Esther and said to her “I am curious. I am curious to know how you were able to find out that this place is an illusion. My instinct is telling me that you had help from the outside world but that is

    THE DEAL

    Redrick told Marcelos what had happened to Esther and what he wanted Marcelos to do for them so Marcelos could help free Esther. Marcelos smiled upon hearing all that and couldn’t comprehend what would make them come to him of all people. Redrick wondered why Marcelos smiled then Marcelos said to Redrick “I don’t know what you and Esther were thinking before you decided to come to me. I mean you just tell me that a river that is capable of killing Esther presently has Esther in captivity and the river is slowly draining Esther's powers for itself till Esther dies. So why will I help Esther out? I want Esther dead so I can be free from all these things she has in me and I have a river that is going to do the work for me so why should I save Esther? Esther is an obstacle to me completing my work of creating a better world so joining the river in ending her life is the better thing for me to do. You are kind of stupid telling this kind of thing”. “How about you let me be done so you
