THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness The night after (2)
Alastair felt the strange energy as he headed into the room. The room was hot, and it had an unusual aura which Alastair tried to decipher. The furniture in the room had been destroyed or pushed aside and the darkness that surrounded the room Made it all worse.At the side, Alastair could see Drax on the ground groaning. Drax was wounded, and he had another fracture of his left arm. He groaned when he saw Alastair who quickly hurried to him."What happened?" Alastair asked Drax.Drax grunted as he tried to speak but it seemed like he had fractured ribs as well. He looked badly beaten up, and Alastair did not like seeing him that way. "Cara...she just, started acting strangely. I did not know what was happening and before I could figure it out, she attacked me." Drax groaned. Alastair took the fractured hand and looked at it.He whispered some words and a light shone at the site of fracture. The wound also gave out a light as well and so did the fractured ribs "I have numbed the pain
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Elderien will not work with Hades
"I want us to work together...", The words sounded like a joke to Alastair's ears. He scoffed when Lilith said the words and decided to find a way out of the ethereal realm as soon as he could. He could not keep up with her nonsense and sadly, it did not seem like she was planning on stopping any time soon."I am serious, Mage." Lilith stated again. Alastair nodded when she spoke. She could tell that he was not buying what he was saying."I understand. I totally do. Working with hades is a very good option. I wonder why I did not consider it before now. I mean I could ALWAYS reach out to you guys, can't I?"He said sarcastically. Lilith groaned and slowly transforming into a more human form. Alastair watched in surprise as she turned into a human version of herself. She was not looking bad, except she was Stark naked and her hair was fiercely black.Her skin, however was smooth and silky, although some parts of it still had stains from coal. She walked towards Alastair, tired of expla
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Snap!
Alastair gasped as he opened his eyes. He was surprised that the journey back from the ethereal realm did not take as long as he has suspected. He groaned as he suddenly started feeling a terrible headache. The aftermath of visiting that terrible place was always the same."Easy, you're alright. Stay still." He heard Miranda say to him. Alastair was still on the ground as he tried to process what had happened. The room was already crawling with mages and guards by that time and when he looked around for Drax, he could not see him."Where is Drax? Where's Cara?" He asked Miranda."Cara is being attended to over there..", she said and pointed to the bed where Cara was lying. She looked at him and smiled. She looked fine."Drax was taken out for treatment. Turns out there was a lot more damage than a few broken bones." Miranda added and that instantly alerted Alastair who tried standing immediately."It's nothing the mages cannot take care of. He will be fine. What happened back there?
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Tales of past horrors
Alastair walked towards the catacombs with Drax by his side. The catacombs were unusually dark at that time, and though it was just morning, it seemed like it was night time. The silence between Alastair and Drax appeared to make the tension even greater. He wanted to say something, but Drax knew he did not actually know how to speak with the older man. They had barely reunited, and he should not try to force good vibes."I take it you and Cara have gotten quite close..." Alastair started a discussion, and the suddenly mention of Cara made Drax embarrassed a little. He did not know that people had started noticing how fond they were of each other."Yes. She is a good girl, and a formidable one." Drax responded and Alastair nodded."She is. You Know, it is a good thing to have you by her side. Now when I am gone, I will be certain that she is in safe hands. You are my son afterall. Is there a better guardian than you?"Alastair said and pushed a door open. The door gave a creek and ope
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Secrets
Alastair and Drax descended down the staircase and on each step they took, the torches on the wall lit up. Drax wondered where they were at the moment, and he could not understand how a place which seemed to be so calm and serene hold so many secrets.Alastair slowly guilded his hand and touched a brick on the wall and another passage opened within the walls. He stepped inside, and motioned to Drax do follow him. Drax did as he was told. The wall behind them shook as soon as they stepped into the new place."Where are we?" Drax asked Alastair who snapped his finger and created a streak of light along the wall of the old dirty corridor that lay before them. "This is the old dungeon." Alastair stated and Drax was confused. He sighed when the young man could not comprehend what he meant."There was a time when the palace as you know it now was not so high up. So, these were the dungeons where erring slaves were kept and punished. A lot of them died here. If you listen closely, you can h
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Theory
Alastair stood before the cube with so many questions in his mind. He was as confused as the young man standing before him, Looking up to him for answers. Alastair stretched forth his hand towards the cube again and just like before, the cube thrummed.It vibrated and slowly elevated, filling the room with a light, at the same time sucking the energy in the room. But just like before, the cube fell after powering down. Alastair crunched and studied the cube carefully. There was nothing wrong with it. It had no cracks or anything of such. Why did it power down?"You have a connection with the cube, don't you? Can you figure out why it is behaving this way?" Alastair said to Drax who nodded. Alastair was already getting frustrated. He did not have the time nor the luxury to do unreasonable things. The spell should have worked. He was certain that there was no problem with it. He had crosschecked the spell over and over before they started and he had made modifications himself. Why wasn
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Let's go together
Alastair could tell that his efforts to find a suitable reason for the problem he was encountering were not forthcoming. He could not even focus on anything all through the day. As the mages attended to Drax, he walked out of the room to get some fresh air.Alastair saw the dome and remembered what had led him there in the first place. The dome kept giving off Sparks on energy, but Alastair could notice that the Sparks had started reducing. He was not surprised. It was bound to happen sooner than later. But the only issue he had was the fact that he did not know when the dome would finally call it a quit. There has to be a plan for when that happened. That Was what he was trying to do but he was not even successful in that.Alastair was so deep in thought that he did not even notice when Miranda walked up to him. She sighed as she gazed at the sphere as well, and then turning to gaze at Alastair when he did not acknowledge her presence."What are you thinking about?" She asked him. Al
THE ELDERIEN CHRONICLES: Aftermath Of Darkness Reveal her truth
Alastair slowly looked at the direction to which Miranda was pointing to. He was not sure what he would see there but he knew that whatever it was, it was enough to send shivers down her spine. Alastair slowly turned his neck and gazed at the darkness that stood before him. In the midst of the pitch black aura which he could see, he started to make out something like the outline of a person.But it was a shadow. Alastair looked closer. He was certain that it was a ghost, or at least he suspected it was. But he had Never seen a ghost like that one before, and the uncertainty made him uncomfortable."What is that?" Miranda asked him, shaking with fear. What terrified her the most was the fact that the shadow stood still, not moving, not speaking, but menacing enough to show off a Stern warning with it's presence. "I think it is a ghost." Alastair said to her and the realization that the creature had a name made Miranda to become at ease, at least she now knew what she was facing. Alas
