The Prophecy: Battle for the ark of time

The cave of doom

than a cave to us.

"Step forward all those that are willing to continue" the old man repeated,

Claxton then stepped forward "sir, I have a question"

"You may ask whatever you wish to ask, but I will only answer only those I am at liberty to answer"

"How do I get off this hellish forest, I am done risking my life for that scepter" he stated, blatantly.

The old man then looked up slightly "That is impossible, young lad" "And why is that?" he asked.

"The moment someone steps into the forest of torture, he or she is marked with a curse of which that person will roams this forest until a certain condition is met"

"Isn't there a way to stop the curse" Claxton further inquired.

"The curse is dispelled only when the scepter is found"

"This can't be, no...Noooooo!" he suddenly scream out,

Hearing this, everyone was lost for words. and then i realized it,

This was the real reason why I always ended up in the hearth of the forest, no matter what I did.

The old man then turn toward us, "You all have wasted quite a lot of time; you should hurry before the cave goes back to hiding"

"How do we get into this so called cave?" prince Collins stepped forward.

"As I said, step before the cave"

Rayas then walked in front of the cave and suddenly vanished, on seeing this, we all began going to the cave one after another,

It was a very long queue, but after a while it was finally my turn,

As I stepped in front of cave, I felt a very strange pressure pressing down on me, and then, something suddenly drew me into the ground.

It felt like I was falling into an endless pit, the more I fell, the more I lost myself, I quickly rolled over in midair to see what I was falling into, but all I could see was utter darkness, After a long period of falling, I began feeling very weak, it was as though the fall was sucking every inch of energy I had, before I knew it, I black out due to extreme exhaustion.

"Wake up! Wake up!"

I quickly stood up and found myself in a very odd place. I looked up and saw strange man staring deeply into my eyes.

"Please sir, who are you, where am I?" i asked.

"Don't worry, you're in a safe place, as for who I am, that is something that would be difficult for you to understand" he replied.

"What do you mean?"

He then left me and walked around the place with his hands behind him, "You will understand very soon" he said.

"Please, what is your name?" I asked.

"hmmm.... it Fedinal, Fedinal roquez" he said with a smile on his face" "that surname, it's sounds....... familiar" I thought.

"Well, it should" he said.

"Is this... the cave?" I stood up.

"No, this is your inner most sub consciousness" he answered.

"What, then how are you here"

"Do you remember the ring on your finger?" he asked.

"Yea, that's the one mom gave to me" I replied.

"I was the one who gave it to her"

"What, but how... are you..... My father"

"Yes I am, I implanted half of my magic essence in that ring, because I knew a day like this would come" he explained.

"Then why are you only appearing before me now"

"That's because the magic essence in the ring was dormant, the only way to activate it, was to awakened your blood line"

"Then are you the one who killed all those beasts while I was unconscious" I asked.

"Yes, I was able to take possession of your body immediately after your awakening, but now, my essence is running out, it's only a matter of time before I disappear"

"But why, why are you leaving me, just when I found you, I have so many questions"

"I know that much, so the lease I can do now is to tell you the whole truth"

"The truth"

"Yes, how it all
