The Elderien Chronicles Do you need help?
The woman screamed as she kept glaring at the knife which was suspended in the air. It was like her heart had fallen out of place. Alastair did not understand why she was so freaked out over magic. Was that the first time she was seeing a magical act? But still, even if it was, she would have been amused instead of scared. What was wrong? What was happening?The two men holding Cara slowly let go of her and stepped aside. The others that Alastair had beaten up already still stood to their feet and gasped. Each of them reached for a weapon, although they were injured.They hurled at him. Alastair simply kicked the first man's face and sent a punch to the second man. The man yelled as Alastair punched him right on the shoulder where he had fractured already. Another one tried to crawl up on him but Alastair noticed and kicked the man also. As the man fell, he used his magic to drag him closer.That made the others tremble. Curious! The two healthy men that had been the ones holding Cara
The Elderien Chronicles A strange friend in a hellhole
"A mage. Now that is something I did not think I will be seeing today. But you know how the universe works. We make our plans and it just does its own. Or, isn't that right, Mage?" The man asked Alastair but he just nodded. "I need to get back. I left someone behind. I appreciate your help so far but I got it from here." Alastair said to him and the man chuckled."Who did you leave behind?" The man asked him. The carriage bumped and Alastair could hear the man curse."It was my ward. She is all alone in the streets now and she must be scared. I need to find her immediately." Alastair replied. The man nodded and looked at him."Why don't you use your magic to find her? You can do that, can you not? You can do anything with this power of yours. Give it a try. Come on." The man persisted. If Alastair did not know better, he would have thought that the man was obsessed with magic.Alastair closed his eyes and focused again, but still, something was blocking that particular spell. He trie
The Elderien Chronicles Gig
The carriage pulled up in front of a beautiful house with really great designs which Alastair could not help but notice. The man, Lord Karl was right. If he wanted to find Cara, he needed his help. And besides, the man was a mage like him. He was the only one who probably understood what it felt like to be a mage in that city and Alastair knew his best chance was with Karl.Or so he thought.Lord Karl quickly walked inside the house and Alastair followed closely. When the door opened, Alastair was greeted by a large hall with beautiful chandeliers. If they could exert that much beauty during the day, what about at night? It would be paradise."Being a mage in Pyra has its own benefits, you know. I was able to build all of these by preserving my secret, telling it to no one but myself, and should someone else know about it, I will take care of them. With time, I think you will learn to do the same thing as well."Lord Karl said and Alastair raise his brow. With time? He was not plannin
The Elderien Chronicles Deviants
"What gig?"Cara asked again as James approached her. There was a reaction that Denise have afterward, almost like she was jealous that he approached her instead. Cara sighed. She was not to steal anyone's man."We have the chance to get off the Streets tonight, for good. We can finally do something with our lives. Good things but it will require the greatest test of our lives. We need all the help we can get if we will make it. We need you."He said to her and Cara scoffed."You do not know me. You have no idea who I am. So, why are you planning on taking me along? Who knows? Denise might be right. Maybe I am a spy or something. I do not want to go." Cara said to him and he nodded."I understand. But at the same time, I want you to think it through. This is a job meant for four people. We cannot manage with three. And you asked why I want to take you along? For some reason, I feel like you understand what we are going through. Your eyes tell a story when I look into them. It's Sad. W
The Elderien Chronicles Whistle
Cara crunched outside the main building in the position that was given to her. Her chest was pounding as she observed the movements of the guards. She could not shake off the feeling that something terrible was going to happen. It was a dark night, and the moonlight did not seem to do much for the sight.That allowed her to stay perfectly hidden amidst the shadows, but she did not know for how long she would stay there. She saw a guard walking towards the direction of the house and she nearly blew the whistle, but when he stopped, turned around like he forgot something, and dashed out of the scene, Cara heaved a sigh of relief.If she blew the whistle, a lot of guards would come for her. She knew that. She knew she had to be quick when it came to escaping for if she even delays, she would be caught and treated roughly. She did not fear death, at least not so much. She had the Phoenix did she not?Cara closed her eyes to find out whether the Phoenix was still there. She did not underst

"Cara... Cara, are you alright?"Cara could hear Fristborn's voice call out to her. She opened her eyes slowly and what she saw was someone she never knew she could see any more. Was she dead, or was she dreaming? She gazed at Fristborn's face and in that split second, she reached out to touch him.But someone else quickly grabbed her hand and she turned and saw Denise standing there. Her eyes roamed back to 'fristborn' but was actually James that was kneeling beside her. She blushed in embarrassment as she quickly say up. They were no longer in the house. From what Cara could see, they were some distance away from the house and it was not too quiet. She could still hear the sounds of guards running around, trying to look for them. The three of them remained silent for a while."What happened?" Cara asked as she rubbed her eyes. It felt like she slept for a long time."You fainted," Denise replied to her. Cara tried to recall what had happened after she felt the surge in her magic b
The Elderien Chronicles Keeping it safe
An energy blast escaped from cara's body and hit all those that were in close proximity to her, James and Denise included. The force of the blast was so powerful that it took them off their feet and crashed them onto the ground. Cara let out a guttural growl as energy began to radiate from her body. The red, hot, energy began to gush out even more as her powers levitated her slowly. The growls continued, and so did the fear on lord Karl's face. He has never seen anything like that. He and his followers were not sure of what to do at that point. They slowly stood to their feet and watched as she stretched out her hand toward them. Her yellow eyes fell on them and with a sudden spark, her energy surged again. This time, it did not hit James and Denise. Both were surprised that the energy phased right through them to hit a sorcerer standing behind them and when they turned around, their eyes beheld a horror unlike what they knew before.The sorcerer's body froze. His eyes stretched out
The Elderien Chronicles Prepare for anything
The journey was quiet, and although the moonlight shone upon them like the ever glowing beam of light that it is, Cara was not feeling it. She just kept walking, a step behind Alastair. Her head was bowed, her fists were clenched. Her nails were digging into her palms, although not enough to give her an injury, it still hurt.Maybe she wanted it to hurt. Maybe she just wanted to feel something at the end of the day. She had been so hollow ever since the fight. She could feel Asmodeus crawling around in her mind. She could feel the Phoenix slowly regressing. She could feel the terror that was coming, very one that she was destined to bring upon the world."Are you alright?" Alastair asked her, snapping her out of it. She nodded quickly and looked at him for a moment. "You look disturbed. Is there anything you would like to talk about?" Alastair asked her again but she shook her head. He decided not to press her. If she was ready to talk, she would."Do you miss it? Everything else bef
