Hars kept trying to distance himself from their pursuit, his heart beating hard in his chest. As he ran, his footsteps felt heavy, and his breathing was labored. The dense trees and bushes moved quickly around him, and the darkness of the night hung over them. Hars spoke to himself in a low voice, but filled with determination, "I must not let them get this. This is our faith!"
He continued to run quickly, through the creeping bushes and towering trees. As he saw a small light shining faintly from a cave located in the distance, his sense of hope grew even more intense. It was the hiding place he had planned, a place where he hoped to find refuge from this pursuit.However, Theo, Uldor, and Gorstag were getting closer to Hars. The sound of their steps grew louder, rustling through the dense trees, as if they were shadows chasing Hars.Theo shouted to his friends, his voice carried by the cool night breeze, "Don't let him into that cave! We're almost there!"Uldor, whHars pondered for a moment, his eyes moving between the gun Theo was holding and the host bottle in his hand. He knew that they would still pursue and would probably use force if necessary. With a sense of confusion shining in his eyes, Hars finally gave up.With trembling hands, Hars raised both hands and handed the host bottle to Theo. "Take it, but promise you won't kill me," he said in a voice full of fear.Theo accepted the host bottle carefully, examining the dark, twitching contents inside the glass bottle. It looked like a solid slime, writhing disgustingly as Theo scrutinized its contents. "What is this?" he asked with a serious expression.Hars glanced at Theo, trying to explain as clearly as possible despite his fear. "It's a host," he said, trying to give the necessary explanation. His voice trembled but was filled with determination to explain the situation as best he could.In the darkness of the cave that felt increasingly tense, Theo stood in front of the trembling Har
Catallina was in a state of deep melancholy at the moment, in the newly established refugee camps in the middle of the deadly plague-stricken city of Blanchill. The surrounding scenery made her heart feel heavy. The people in these camps were suffering, and there were screams of pain that filled the air. Victims were indiscriminate; there were men, women, small children, and even babies who were not spared from this plague. Catallina tried hard to hold back her tears, clenched her teeth, and swallowed saliva with difficulty.Lord Elias, the leader of the city of Blanchill, who had accompanied her, tried to provide some solace with his words, "Forgive us, my lady. We should have been able to entertain you in a much more pleasant atmosphere. I apologize profusely for this insult."Catallina turned to him with a look that radiated deep sadness, "There is no need to apologize, Lord Elias. I understand why the King sent me to this city."The two of them walked around the refugee camp ful
Catallina entered the quiet temple with a tense heart. Her footsteps which could be heard clacking on the stone floor signaled the tension that haunted her steps. She knew that the meeting with the priest would reveal a great secret that could change the fate of this deadly plague-stricken town of Blanchill. The priest, a wise old man in long faded robes, greeted him with a gentle smile that never faded despite this dark situation. The priest smiled and said, "Welcome, Princess Catallina. I have been awaiting your arrival."Catallina gave her respectful greeting very politely, "Thank you, priest." The priest nodded solemnly and looked Catallina sharply in the eye before saying, "However, before we get to that, I would like to ask, did you sleep well, my lady?" Catallina sighed heavily, letting worry and tension creep into her voice, "You can see around these eyeballs of mine, Priest." The temple priest smiled warmly then pondered for a moment, his
Theo, Uldor, Gorstag, and Catallina sat together in a room at an inn. There was a moment of silence, hanging in the air, but all present in the room knew that they had very important information to share.Theo, looking serious and thoughtful, opened the conversation with a tone full of urgency, "We encountered something in the forest that is very suspicious. There are three encampments in the middle of the forest, and there, we encountered people wearing red robes with an eye and key symbol on their chests."Catallina, with eyes full of curiosity and wonder, looked at Theo with intensity, "What were they doing in the forest? What is their purpose?"Uldor, who was always firm in his words, nodded and explained, "They were gathering around a large campfire. We decided to pretend to be treasure-seeking adventurers to approach them and find out what they were up to."Gorstag let out a deep sigh before explaining further, "But when we talked to
The tension in the room was palpable as everyone fell silent for a moment, pondering the implications of what they had heard. Catallina stepped up to the Temple Priest gently, realizing the weight of the responsibility the man carried."Are the shards dangerous?" asked Catallina.The priest took a deep breath and let out a long exhale. "Very dangerous," looked Catallina seriously then continued, "From the shard of this barbaric creature, those who possess it will gain evil powers and be able to get in touch with the devil, with his trickery he will grant all the wishes of the owner, once they are fully affected, the Devil will feed on his soul and take over his body."Theo was curious and asked. "You said that the shards are scattered all over the world. I wonder, what would happen if all the demon shards were collected?""The events of 100 years ago will repeat themselves, a world full of deceit, evil and culminating in a time of darkness
That night, the Band of the Sun reunited at the inn after a grueling day. The atmosphere of their room was tense, with the tension they could not escape as the growing plague became a dark shadow that stalked their every step. The previously quiet room was now filled with deep uncertainty and worry.They sat around a large wooden table with worried expressions on their faces. In the center of the table, several maps and notes were scattered, reflecting their persistent efforts to unravel this deepening mystery. A heavy silence enveloped the room, like the shadows of a night rampant outside the window.Catallina, with eyes that reflected tension, finally decided to reveal what was on her mind. Her voice sounded serious as she spoke, "That priest... he might be right. I saw something odd when I met General Dorgs."Theo, with his smile that often showed deep thought, responded, "What did you see?"Catallina, her face filled with doubt, replie
Theo and Catallina arrived at the door of Lord Elias' room. A sense of tension floated in the air when they saw the five guards at the ready, their weapons glowing in the light of the torches displayed on the walls of the room.In a corner of the richly decorated room, there was an old man they recognized as General Dorgs, who stood beside Lord Elias as his protector. The seriousness of the situation was evident on their faces.Catallina, without hesitation and with a firm voice full of anger, voiced her objection, "Lord Elias, what you are planning is an unforgivable crime!"Lord Elias, who was sitting quietly behind a large table, looked at them sarcastically. He said in a cold voice, "What is it, princess? You come into my room without permission and immediately get angry. Do you not know your manners?"Theo, who was standing beside Catallina, replied in a loud voice, "We've come to stop the cruel act you're going to commit tomorrow nig
They arrived near the casualty posts breathlessly, but soon there was a clatter of steps and weapons poised before them. In front of their entourage, a line of city soldiers stood at attention, their sharp eyes looking at the intruders with suspicion."I'm sorry but..." unfinished with his words, Tobias who was running ahead suddenly broke off his words and abruptly launched a swift attack, slashing the head of the first soldier who came his way. The soldier's body drooped lifelessly, while the first blood of the battle littered the ground, soon his head fell to the ground rolling towards the group of soldiers.Then, without hesitation, Uldor and Gorstag followed his lead, welcoming this attack as the inevitable sign of battle. Uldor held his sword tightly and with fluid movements, he turned the weapon and stabbed the body of the warrior who tried to avoid him. Blood splashed and soiled their armor.On the other side, Gorstag angrily swung his great
