“Axel, wake up!” Myrdin shouted in my ears.I felt like I was just sleeping for 5 minutes, but now I have to wake up. I groaned and stretched my body. Everyone was ready but I just opened up my eyes. I stood up without hesitation and followed them outside the cave. We continued to swim and find a way to Nym’s sword place. “Where are we going today?” I asked and swam beside Myrdin. Myrdin turned his head and answered, “I am not sure but I think we'll go to the Weisse Frauen place.” He lowered his voice. “Who is she? Did she know where the Nym sword is?” I asked many questions because I wanted to know. “We still do not know it yet. Let’s go there and we will know,” explained Myrdin with patience. We swam around ten miles away and it made me really tired. We arrived on the lake and came out from the water. Finally, after around two or three days under water, now we came back to the land. “Good luck Princes, I will take care here!” Mr. Goldfish said on the surface of water. “Thank
The Weissen Frauen looked so scary to me. Her voice was so loud and intimidating. “Stood up!” She ordered before the three of us stood up without looking at her. After a loud silence for a few minutes, Myrdin raised his voice. “Weissen Frauen.”“Tell me, what is it?” She asked one more time while walking down the throne. “We need your help to find Nym’s sword.” Paused. “Why do you need your sword?” Weissen Frauen came near Nym and asked him by herself. “Our kingdoms are in danger. There are a lot of Krampus attacking us and kidnapping the children.” Nym told the story with every detail she needed to know. “What? How can that happen?” Weissen Frauen looked so lost and didn’t know about the danger. “Why didn't you tell me soon enough?” She looked upset. “I was in a dungeon, kidnapped by them. While Myrdin was thrown away from this place.” Nym explained it one more time. “Who is he?” The Weissen Frauen stopped in front of me. “He is my friend, the one who saved me when I was thro
“Stay close and be careful.” Nym walked right in front of me. I was walking in the middle line while looking around the mountain. The atmosphere started darkening with ashes everywhere. I choked several times because of the flying ashes enter into my nose. “Wear this.” Myrdin gave me torn cloth. “Thank you.” I wore it as my mask, so my mouth and nose were close. Twenty minutes after we walked, finally we could see the top of the mountain. The sky started darkening with lava surrounding us. I started to wipe my sweat from my face because of this burning feeling. My eyes also felt so stings and I could not see clearly. “Are you okay?” Myrdin stood beside me and asked with worry. “No, I can see anything and my lungs run winded.” I told him the truth. My head was aching so bad and my eyes started to shut slowly. Nym stopped his steps and looked backward. Myrdin shouted something that I couldn’t hear, but I thought he was trying to call him. Not even a minute later, I passed out and
Wow, Myrdin was booking it towards the explosion site! The red and dark scene had me feeling a bit spooked, but I still tried to catch up to Myrdin and asked, "You're serious?""That's where Nym was, Axel," Myrdin quickly replied.Despite the fire still raging around us, I couldn't believe how determined Myrdin was. I was hesitant to join him, but I couldn't bear the thought of leaving him alone."If you're not up for it, no worries. I'll go find Nym by myself," Myrdin said, with a hint of anger in his voice.So, after their little fight, I could tell that Myrdin was super worried about Nym because of the explosion. Even though I wanted to chill out, I knew I had to help, so I yelled, "Hold up, Myrdin!" and jogged back to him.We finally got to the fire, which was still blazing up the field. Myrdin was trying to figure out how to get in, so I just kept quiet and waited for him to speak up. Then, he gave me a mask for each of us, so we could go in safely."Hey, check this out," I said
"Your Highness, we found something for you," the leader of the gnomes who walked in front of Nym said."Is it something special?" the voice of their king echoed from behind his throne."Yes, this time I won't disappoint you, My King," the gnomes assured him, urging him to turn around.Finally, the throne turned around and the king of gnomes was sitting there. Nym could see that the king was exactly the same as the others. The difference was in their clothes: the king wore king's garments while the others wore knight's garments."Hahaha... are you kidding me?" Nym chuckled a little when he saw that everyone was three times smaller than him. "Come on, why did you kidnap me?" Nym asked while his hands were already bound, although he didn't know when."This is great!" The king jumped off from his throne and walked to me. "Hey, big guy!" He called me."Yes?" Nym asked, hearing the teasing tone in his voice."Do you even know why you're here?" Some of the gnomes made a ladder so the king co
"Hey Axel!" Myrdin chucked his sword at me.I caught it and swung at the gnomes who were attacking me. These gnomes were so aggressive that they not only used their weapons but also bit us. I was surrounded by them and almost got lost."Myrdin, can you find him? I'm getting tired," I panted while walking near him and taking shelter."I'm trying, man!" Myrdin hollered."Alright, I'll find him. Protect me!" I darted faster while sweeping the gnomes with a mop that I found."Hurry up!" Myrdin tried to distract them.I ran into every tunnel that I saw and tried to find Nym. "Where the hell did the gnomes kidnap him?" I ran out of breath until I saw the last tunnel that looked so narrow."Where do you think you're going?" The gnomes blocked my way into the last narrow."Please, move aside. I don't have time to fight with you," I begged."You can't cross if you can't kill us," the gnomes said with confidence."Alright, if that's what you want."I took a glass bottle from the box behind me.
The thick smoke rose from the ground, and it was pretty clear that a bunch of animals were coming in our way. I squinted my eyes, trying to see better."Hey, is that a pack of bulls?" I asked them, since they could see better than me because they were two times my height."Yup," Myrdin nodded, looking pretty chill."Should we run for it?" I asked, looking at both of them while standing in the middle."Hell yeah!" Nym bolted first, and I followed, with Myrdin bringing up the rear.But of course, my short legs were no match for this world. Myrdin picked me up and carried me in his arms. "C'mon, man, you gotta run faster," Myrdin chuckled."How can I? Your body is two times bigger than mine," I panted, glancing back. "They're getting closer!" I started panicking."Run, Nym, run!" Myrdin urged, sprinting ahead of Nym."Ugh," groaned Nym, who was only good in the water.The pack of bulls closed in faster than they expected. The bulls shoved them around until they couldn't even stand. I fel
I closed my eyes when Myrdin started jumping into the boiling lava. My heart was pounding up and down while I tried to open my eyes. All I could see was red, but it was not really hot.“Are we already inside the lava?” I asked, looking at the lava bubble which looked so satisfying.“Yes,” answered Myrdin.Myrdin and Nym were swimming together deep into the mountain. Strangely, the lava didn’t feel hot at all. Now, I felt more relaxed than before and saw everything around us.“Why didn’t you tell me that the lava doesn’t feel so hot?” I started talking with Myrdin in a good mood.“We wanted to surprise you, Axel,” Myrdin smirked with happiness.“I know.”“Hold on a little, guys!” Nym warned us.When I heard that, I sneaked into Myrdin’s coat and held my body. Suddenly, the temperature became hotter than before. I felt that the heat would burn our skin. I came out from Myrdin’s coat because of the heat.“It’s near the sword place, hold on!” Nym said with a sharp voice.“It’s too hot!” I
