Rachel and her sons stared at each other in horror. This was not the news they were hoping for. After centuries of trying to look for solutions, it looked like they were back to square one. They had no idea why fate was so against them.

Barrick hurried off to the kitchen and Omen followed him from behind, he ignored a frustrated Clarris that kept screaming at him.

“I thought this was all over?” Miguel said in a sad voice to which they all just looked at the floor sadly. Clarris stared at them and laughed, she was enjoying the fact that they were still suffering but hearing Cleselda and Emperor Marcelo in the same sentence boiled her blood. It could only mean one thing.

“Let's go and meet our guests,” Rachel stated, breaking the silence and they all followed her.

Outside the Barrier, Princess Elsa got off her father very furiously; shocked by the Nemo's behavior. She was in disbelief, he threw her out like a piece of garbage.

“My Princess, are you alright?” the emperor asked while hug

    The room was silent and no one wanted to glance at their mother. Rachel felt shame hovering over her. She did not expect Omen to say that out but it was like it was eating him up and he was waiting for the perfect opportunity to say it out and he made sure to use someone to deliver a clear message. “So this is how you all feel right?" Rachel asked while looking at all her sons. "Say it to my face as he has done.” “Mother please,” Nephius replied, “We all know that you once made a mistake and you are still paying for that, we do not blame you.” Omen chuckled “Omen stop it!” Daniel yelled. Omen rolled his eyes and jumped out of the window into the burning lava. They all ran to the window in shock, “Did he just commit suicide?” a terrified Barrick asked.Deep in the melting lava was Lotus with his eyes closed, he opened them and found himself on fire. He got up and started beating himself in hopes of putting it off. To his shock, he noticed he was not burning. He realized that the

    “The flute of a sleeping monster was a weapon fashioned to tame dragons by the greatest sorcerer that ever lived,” Clarris broke the silence. “Once you sleep only a kiss of life would awaken you,” she addedBut Omen ignored her and kept chewing on the meat as if his life depended on it. “Are you seriously kidding me?” Clarris asked“Are you hungry?” Omen asked“Did you hear what I just said?”“Thought thou wanted me dead, '' Omen replied. “Why do you care now?”Clarris was quiet, she wasn't sure what she was doing but her blood was boring so she avoided the question and asked, “was Darrell with Cleselda?”“Is he your lover?” Clarris almost chocked on her saliva, what a stupid question she thought to herself and ignored his question“I be curious all these centuries with Darrell and thou two ne'r didst it?” Omen inquired with curiosity.“Cleselda is outside, and they are ten steps ahead of you while you are here asking me if I ever did it with Darrell. How do you even know about sex??

    Princess Elsa stood up and helped Darrell up, “Ooh I remember you, you are Darrell, Clarris's pet,”Darrell pretended not to have heard her, he placed his hand on her shoulder, turned her into a mouse, and continued sipping on his wine like nothing was happening. The Dark knight came by flying and stopped when he saw Darrell's figure. “Have you seen a princess pass through here?” he asked.“What would a princess be doing flying around Deadman's forest alone,” Elder Lee replied.“Just answer the question, old man,” the Knight replied.“Why don't you climb up and make him,” Darrell intervened.The Knight stared at them but decided to fly off and look for the princess before she got far. The two were only wasting his time.In his pocket, Princess Elsa was failing to breathe. Darrel got her out and placed her on his palm.“Turn me back into human form, are you crazy?? Of all creatures, you chose a rat!” Princess Elsa said out in disgust.“A mouse is the only cute creature that could fit

    Omen kept flying, they passed the Deadman's forest and came to a land that seemed deserted. He flew past it and headed east. The two brothers were so caught up with the idea of their burning family that they did not notice Clarris riding with them. She was now becoming visible to everyone, the spell was fading because she was no longer in the dungeon.“Can you now admit that you have a crush,” Clarris stated, forcing the two brothers to look in her direction? “What the fuck!!! Clarris!!,” Lotus yelled. Marcus got up and took a closer look, “Shit!!! It's her head.” But as he was trying to turn, he slipped and fell off Omen's back.“Marcus!!!” Lotus yelled out."Hold on," Omen ordered and took a dive and within seconds he was able to catch up with Marcus and placed him on his back but unfortunately he landed on Clarris. “Get off of me,” Clarris yelled.Marcus quickly got up and held Lotus. It was not a secret that he feared Clarris. "Omen there is Clarris's head back here with us,” L

    “Since when did you care about us you filthy witch?” Lotus yelled at her, pissed.“Hey hey we now have a common enemy, of course, I do not care about you, and After we work together I will continue where I left off with the curse,” Clarris reminded them.“Please Omen allow me to kick her head and where is her useless body?”“ lost in time, and Cleselda and Darrell betrayed her, she is all alone,” Omen replied in a teasing voice Marcus and Lotus looked at each other and burst out laughing just to taunt Clarris. The woman that had caused their parents hell for centuries was nothing but a head and all abandoned. Clarris turned her eyes away trying to hide all the shame that was building up. No matter how hard she tried to hide it, her situation was still pathetic.In Deadman's Forest, Princess Else got back to the burning tree terrified, “they burnt them, they burnt them all!” she cried out….. “They have a flute that can make Omen sleep, my father is planning to make a lot of them,” sh

    Darrell kept riding as fast as he could in hopes of tiring the princess up but to his surprise, she was not giving up. The faster he rode, the faster she flew. She was determined to follow him until he gave up.It was almost getting dark, he looked back and found her still following, he sighed and cursed not even Clarris was this persistent. He needed to lose her and fast. He taped on his horse and it turned into a dragon fry while he turned into an aunt.“No no, you fool!” Princess Elsa cried out. She looked around and it was all dark, she was all alone and tired in Deadman's Forest. Creatures of the night were up and about. She was so tired, she stopped and sat on the ground not sure what to do, “Darrel you are a coward a stupid coward for that matter,” she yelled at top of her voice.Unknown to her Darrell was in her hair and listening, he thought she would turn back once he did his dragonfly trick but to his surprise, she began screaming at top of her voice putting herself in dan

Marcus also joined and dared Omen who was now fuming with rage.Seeing this Darrell quickly turned into an ant and was about to make a run for it when suddenly he felt being sacked up and ended up in Omen's fingers.“Where doth thou regard thou are going?” Omen asked while squeezing on Darrell's tiny ant body. He turned to face Princess Elsa and ordered her to pick up Clarris's head.“Over my dead body will I put that thing in my hands!” Princess Elsa replied. “Thy hope shall be granted then,” Omen replied. “Hey hey, Omen we do not have time for this?” Marcus intervened, “the more time we waste here the more power we are granting to Cleselda.”“Bid her to pick up Clarris,” Omen insisted.“Fine, I will pick up the bloody head!" Lotus volunteered. But when he was about to move his leg, it felt heavy. He tried to move again but he was stuck to the ground. “Omen stop this nonsense“Bid her to pick u

They could not believe that it could talk.“Do not tell me that we were not invited?” the Nixie spat out.“You are invited of course, but can you all please shapeshift into human form.

His terrified mother came running and t1ried to lift him but the Pixiu moved forward and placed its feather on the ground for the boy to climb up. The boy was so excited and climbed up. More children came forward and he was able to put a lot of them on his back and flew off exciting the children.“Do not even think about that with me!

    Nixie Omen left the room and joined the night catcher. Their mother appeared with a smile on her face. “Someone looks happy,” Nixie Omen teased.Immediately she heard modern English and her smile was wiped out. She asked where the Naga Omen was and before Nixie Omen could finish explaining everything.She yelled in frustration forcing both the night catcher and Nixie Omen to cover their ears. She spent the whole day making Clarris's tomb but finding out that Omen separated his entity only met one thing. She tried teleporting but she was blocked and pushed back.After failing to penetrate the spell she ordered Nixie Omen, but he disappeared and did not want to be involved in the family drama. The Naga yelled and went banging on the door. “Clarris I have made you your tomb,” she kept yelling but she got no response.Inside the room, Clarris could hear the Naga screaming but she ignored her. “Maybe back then if I had seen who your father was the curse could not have happened,” she joked

    The all-ride Clarris was quiet and only replied with a yes or no. Even though Omen did not like her attitude he played along.They landed on Dark Tower and found the Night Catcher. Clarris rolled her eyes and passed him, went straight to her room, and locked the room behind her. Omen asked the Night Catcher to ignore her. He knew it was waiting for her soul but also knew that it wouldn't take it forcefully. “On our wedding, thou be mine best man,” he stated. The night catcher eyed him confused and asked him to clarify if he had heard him correctly. Omen only smiled and teleported into Clarris's room.“Are you Stupid, get out of my room,” she yelled at him but Omen threw himself on the bed and joked about the fact that she had a bed? A very irritated Clarris walked over to the bed and ordered him to get up but Omen pretended to be asleep. She got a pillow and hit him hard but got no reaction. “Omen get up, you are not sleeping in here,” she kept yelling and hitting him.In a swift,

    Nephius walked into his mother's chambers and informed her of his plans. She lay on her bed uninterested in whatever he was saying. She kept her face to the war and avoided facing him. He tried pleading with her but she was not budging. And requested him to run his kingdom the way he wanted to. Nephius looked down the floor sadly, he did not have an idea with who to be disappointed with. There was no way he was going to rule without his mother's help or blessings. And on the other hand, he needed Omen. He was stuck, his rule was turning out to be a nightmare before it even started. In Arthora, emperor Marcelo sat in his chambers pissed. The sorcerer he sent after the Princess returned and updated him on Everything. He ordered him to get ten thousand of his men ready. It was war, he was hundred percent sure the sons were coming for him.“I will take at least one of them to hell with me,” he roared out.

    They all looked at each other blankly, all this time they were more concerned with their mother's reaction and forgot about what their subjects would think. “So what is going to be of our brothers' graves,” Miguel asked.“It was just a toy grave brother, they were never physically buried in there,” Barrick replied.Nephius suggested that they worry about that later what was important to them was finding a solution to how they were going to free the descendants of Ergad. They all walked back into the castle and began strategizing.“Are we not supposed to crown you king first!? Lotus asked.“I want to be crowned in front of my people, Prince Lotus, not in front of my brothers,” Nephius replied.His brothers smiled, their entire lives they never associated themselves with the title of Prince but finally, they were going to be addressed by that title. It was still a victory to them even though the thought of their father not being around to witness it all hammered the back of their heads

    Rachel spit on the ground and looked at Clarris with disdain, then turned and looked at Nephius. “Your first rule has a king and you choose to dine with the snake that cursed you!” Nephius only looked down in shame. But his other brothers were right, he needed Omen and Clarris had the Naga to worry about more than them. Marcus walked over to where Rachel was standing and reminded her of the day she defended him when he had betrayed his brothers not once but twice.“Mother, remember when everyone wanted me punished or should I say dead? You said Omen kept me alive because he was in need of me?” “What has that got to do with this snake!” Rachel asked“We need Omen, Omen likes the snake so we will let him play with it until he gets tired or she hurts him and the Naga kills her?” Lotus replied. Clarris couldn't believe what she was hearing, she clenched her teeth and was about to say something but Omen held her hand.Rachel looked at them with spite, turned, and walked back into the cas

    Nephius clenched his fist and a bit of frost came out. Miguel gave him a stay calm look.’ They all felt insulted but they needed Omen if they were going to reberate their people from the emperor's rule. Without Omen all were just a couple of brothers with abilities while the emperor had thousands of Dark Nights. The game changed, it was all about the future now and not the past.“Remember let the Naga deal with Clarris,” Marcus whispered.“Where would you like to have your Picnic from?” Nephius asked with difficulty, surprising both Omen and Clarris. Even his other brothers were shocked. Among them Nephius was the most Arrogant and putting his pride aside In a short amount of time was surprising.“In the garden,” Clarris replied knowing very well it was the place where the graves of all the sons she had harvested lay. Even though everything was now burnt down.The brothers held on to their anger “But first Omen, you have an apology to make,” Nephius stated to which Clarris laughed an
