The Elderien Chronicles The innate explanations
Cara found the other side of the ground slowly turning to the real world she had left behind and she was perturbed. Someone had pulled her out of the terrible nightmare she was having. She knew she could not feel her physical body but at that moment, on the other side, her spirit was back in her body.How did she know these things? The Phoenix was probably giving her innate explanations of what was going on but why does it not come to her aid when she needs it? She heard someone breathing heavily and she turned to see Fristborn rising from the ground.Her heart jumped. Was she still dreaming? She was certain he had died. What happened to him? And how did he pull her out? She could only see demons doing something similar. What was going on?"Am I dead?"She asked Fristborn who sighed."No, you are still very much alive." He replied."But I saw you die. You got eaten by the goblins."She told him but he smiled."That was not me. They had separated us after they drugged us and I was kept
The Elderien Chronicles The clutch of the old demon
"Cara!"Cara breathed raggedly as something called her name. She turned around but the entity clearly liked playing games. "Cara..."She heard her name again. She decided to keep her cool. Whoever it was that wanted her would make the extra effort to make themselves visible. "Cara!"Something growled behind her and she jumped back. She saw something standing before her, a smoky mass. It had a human shape but she did not need a seer to tell her that it was not human. the creature kept looking at her and even walked closer to her."Stay back. Do not come any closer."She said to it and the creature chuckled. It stopped walking as they continued looking at each other."I have been a part of you since the day you were born Cara. I watched you grow, I was there when you took your first steps. I was there when you took your first kill..."It said and began to walk closer to her, step by step."I have always been a part of you and I always will be. You cannot escape me. You cannot run awa
The Elderien Chronicles The visit to the King(1)
Fristborn felt a wave of terror come upon him. He had not expected Asmodeus to possess Cara and he of all people knows how dangerous a demonic possession was. His father was a demon and the harmful effects of the act were not alien to him.Fristborn materialized back into the physical world. He could already see the effect of Asmodeus's act on the world. Somehow, the sky had turned even more lonely and the moonlight had retreated behind the clouds. It looked like it was going to rain.A good sign or a bad one?What could he do? How could he stop the situation? The Demon was way more powerful than he was and now that the demon also controlled the Phoenix, defeating it was utterly impossible for him alone.He needed help but where was he going to get that? He could not find the members of the resistance yet. They had made sure they hid very well even from him. The closest place he had in mind was the royal palace, but he had serious doubts that the doors to the palace would be opened to
The Elderien Chronicles The visit to the king
"Let me go! You do not realize what you are doing."Fristborn yelled at the king who simply chucked at his audacity. Him, a common mage, yelling at the most powerful and important man in the kingdom? Maybe the brat should just be killed."Lock him up. When he is ready to talk, bring him out to me." King Garrick said to the silent ones that were holding him captive. Fristborn tried to use his magic but he had a very good reason to know that it would result in his immediate demise. The silent ones would kill him on the spot if he is perceived to be a threat.So he had to feign obedience and humility. It was for the good of everyone else, or so he told himself."Your highness, please reconsider. There is a powerful demon inside Cara at this moment. I know because I witnessed it myself. I was there was she returned from the Ethereal realm and what was standing there was not Cara. It was something else."Fristborn noticed the king's confusion when he mentioned the Ethereal realm. But he a
The Elderien Chronicles The strife with an old King
Fristborn watched as Asmodeus stepped inside. He had almost completely taken over Cara. Her supposed face was now red with pointy scales on it. She no longer had any eyebrows and her teeth were black and pointed. The silent ones arranged themselves into a formation as Asmodeus approached. He laughed as they did, but King Garrick stood tall. His head was raised and he looked like he did not have any fear. Fristborn admired him for that. The king was truly a great person."You have no place here, demon. You must leave her body and thus palace this minute."Garrick said to Asmodeus who simply kept on approaching. There was a mass of smoke forming around him as he approached. The silent ones readied themselves. Fristborn knew it was going to get dirty very soon."Sixteen long years I had been trapped in the shadows. I have watched from a distance as the world before me changed and transformed but I was there, stuck within this pathetic body..." He stopped and took a deep breath and slowl
The Elderien Chronicles The strife with an old King
"What the hell is he doing here?"Kay asked Fristborn and he sighed. She was visibly angry, he knew she was always angry but at that, it appeared as if all of the anger inside her had summed up. She took a daring step towards him and he just closed my eyes, trying to show her that he meant no harm."How can you bring that person here? What the hell were you thinking Fristborn?" She yelled again."I just need you to calm down Kay...""Do not tell me to fucking calm down! What is wrong with you? Recently you have been making terrible decisions that endanger the lives of everyone here. First, you bring in some random mage and now you bring in the king. The freaking king! The pillar behind our persecutions."She said and winced, pacing around before she settled back to him. The other mages in the room all looked at us. They shared her opinion but he knew he may be able to convince them."I Know you are angry. I am too. But this is a time when we need to stay together. We are fighting an
The Elderien Chronicles The Strife with an Old king (3)
"Everybody to the back, now!"Kay yelled at the mages who began to scramble through the grounds. The thuds from Asmodeus's magic were getting even more intense. There was every indication that if they did not leave, the hideout might just collapse on them."Kay..."Fristborn called out to Kay as she kept directing people to the back. There was a secret way there, one that only leaders of the resistance have known. The secrecy was to serve as a checkpoint should any mage turn to sorcery. However, as Fristborn called out to her, she did not pay any attention.Was it because she did not hear him or because she did not want to listen?"Kay!"He called again but that time, she looked at him and approached."I have to go, Kay. There is a way we can end this. There is someone I must find. A mage. I have to leave."Fristborn said to her but she shook her head."No.. we need you here. You are our leader. You cannot leave."She told him but he held her shoulders and looked into her eyes."I hav
The Elderien Chronicles The shadow
Alastair groaned as the effect of the alcohol he had consumed began to exert its effect on him. He got up Lazily from the grass he had passed the night on, a distance not too far from a horse's stable. As he stood up, one of the horses kept looking at him. He scoffed when he saw the horse."What are you looking at?"He asked the horse and trudged along. He was speaking with random animals now? He was still drunk then. The sunlight hit his face and he groaned, shielding his eyes from the light. He sighed and kept walking.The previous night had been a long one for him. Alastair had gotten tired of everything and decided to take a break. He knew he had failed in his mission and the world might burn for it. He could not even keep Cara safe and closer to him.

How was he supposed to protect her if he doesn't know where she is? How was he
