"Uncle, exactly where am I?" I asked my uncle.“In the hospital, Ares. You better just rest. Your mind must still be very confused, “said my uncle."No! I have to go back to Totem World to pick up Dad!” I shouted.“Ares! Don't move too much just yet!” my uncle exclaimed.My body was so weak and sore, I couldn't move. I groaned in pain and also with annoyance. I can't leave my father in a dangerous place like Totem World!Ares! Please calm down!” cried my uncle while holding my body.However, I still tried to rebel."I have to save my father!" I shouted.“Ares! You must calm down! You just awake from a comma!” cried Uncle Arthur.Not long after, several people came and gave me an injection. They might be nurses or doctors, I can't see clearly. The next thing I know I feel weaker and calmer. Even I'm sleepy."Calm down, Ares," my uncle said as he laid me back on the bed.I closed my eyes and tried to think back on what had happened. I felt confused and didn't understand, how could my fa
“I didn't do it on purpose, sorry,” my uncle replied.I really don't know what to do anymore. I wanted to slap the man who had raised me, but I couldn't. He clearly purposely gave me that amulet and with that I went to the totem world through Rex Hito's body. He must have known about the legend of The Golden Tree.“You did it on purpose… You did it on purpose!” I shouted with wet eyes."I didn't know it could actually bring you to the totem world," he replied.I shouted frustrated to hear my uncle's answer. I felt very confused and didn't know what to do after knowing that his uncle was involved in all this. He felt very disappointed and betrayed by the people he used to trust. However, on the other hand, I also feel compelled to find his father and mother, who he now believes is still alive and in The Totem World."What should I do now?" I thought to myself. Now there's no Rex in my thoughts, giving me ideas. It feels weird.Arthur's uncle seemed to notice my confusion and took the o
I can't believe they don't know about the revolution I read about in the totem codes book."You don't know about that?" I asked.My uncle and Sarah looked at each other and then shook their heads.“The Totem World is our world, but centuries later. They have even recorded the Anno Domini era as history. Don't say you don't know that!” I shouted.My uncle widened his eyes."That's not possible. How can we possibly find the artifacts of The Totem World if that is true,” my uncle said."I don't know how that's possible," I said, trying to explain. But I have found solid evidence in the totem code books. They have already passed our era, meaning the world was destroyed in the future and all the remaining people returned to primitive times, and they mutated,” I replied.“Jesus, this all makes sense,” Sarah said."What do you mean?" I asked Sarah.“The Shadow Society, that organization, maybe they are the cause of the destruction of the world and lead to The Totem World. We must prevent it.
“Ares, when you fell into a coma, I had no idea what happened to you that the amulet of The Golden Tree I gave you used to shine every few times a day. It was quickly discovered by the people from The Shadow Society. I swear I didn't tell them about that. You were quickly taken to the laboratory and I told them not to do any dangerous experiments lest they lose their chance to gain access to the Totem World. Trust me, Ares, that's the best thing I can do to save you," said my uncle. I can't trust anything from my uncle, but I don't have much choice now. I am tied to this bed and they are part of The Shadow Society. They will force me, whether I want it or not, there will be no choice. “Do I still have a choice? I guess not, right?" I asked. “Ares…” “I can't believe you guys but I have no choice. You guys are going to keep running those tests on me,” I said. My uncle sighed. "One day, you will know what really happened, Ares," my uncle said. I was about to ask what my uncle meant
Meanwhile, I was trying to deal with the pain and fatigue from the tests I had undergone. I know that we still have many obstacles to overcome, but our resolve has never wavered."We must act quickly," I said firmly. "Every second counts and the lives of people in Totem World are in danger.""I know what we have to do," my uncle said."What?" she asked.“We have to sabotage the delivery of technology to the Totem World palace,” my uncle replied.“Before, we had to find out to whom they were sending this technology and for what purpose. They can't just give away technology for nothing, can they?” she asked.I nodded in agreement with Sarah's words. "Right, we need to reveal who the recipients of this technology are and their purpose. That way, we can stop the shipments and confront them with sufficient evidence."My uncle fixed his attention on the computer screen in front of him and started searching for more information. "I'm going to use this system to conduct an investigation. We n
Sarah added, "We do have to find a way to involve the totems in this fight. I firmly believe, if we let The Shadow Society carry out its plans, the revolution that Ares spoke of will become a reality. The world will be utterly destroyed and return to primitive times.""I guess so too. However, I have absolutely no idea how to return to Totem World. The Guardian of The Golden Tree sent me back to my body because she said my job was done," I replied.My uncle looked at me thoughtfully. "Ares, if you have connected yourself to the power of The Golden Tree, there may be a way to activate it again. We must find a way to open a portal to the Totem World."Sarah added, "There are several legends and myths that tell about how to open a portal between the human world and the Totem World. We need to do more research and find clues that can help us."We immediately returned to the computer screen and began our search. We read about ancient stories, gathered information about ancient rituals, and
"Move now Ares," Sarah whispered softly. "We can't let them catch us."Even though my body felt weak and sore, I gathered what strength remained within me. With the help of my uncle and Sarah, I regained control of myself and struggled to my feet.We ran to the car, The Shadow Society agents were chasing us with their guns continuously firing. Sarah, with her skill, directed return fire, giving us time to reach the car.We finally made it to the car, and Sarah immediately sped away from the scene. My body still feels weak, but I hold on with the determination to survive and fight against The Shadow Society.During the trip, my uncle checked my wounds and gave me simple treatment to stop the bleeding.Ares! Can you hear me? He lost a lot of blood!” my uncle shouted frantically.I could feel Sarah driving her car really fast and she probably couldn't answer my uncle's words."Ares, you have to endure. We will find a way to heal you," my uncle said in a soft voice. But now his voice soun
Anxiety flooded our minds. The Golden Tree Amulet was essential for allowing Ares to return to the Totem World. Without it, our mission to stop The Shadow Society and save the world becomes even more difficult."Ares, maybe there's one more place we should try," Sarah said in a low voice. "There is an old shaman in the mountains who is said to have knowledge of magical items and dimensions. Perhaps he can provide a clue as to the whereabouts of the amulet.""This is modern times, how could there still be a shaman?" I asked.My uncle's behavior became tense when he heard that."He doesn't like people coming. Besides, we don't know if he can really help us,” my uncle said."Sarah, you are a scientist, how can you trust a shaman?" I asked.“This one is different, Ares. Trust me," said Sarah.My uncle and I looked at each other. It seems that my uncle knows about the shaman in question."I guess we should try this. Searching The Shadow Society's laboratory is not a good option,” my uncle
The light of the full moon envelops the room with a magical glow, creating a magical and serene atmosphere. Moonlight gently kissed Nola's face which was tense with pain. I stood by her side, my right hand holding hers tightly, conveying warmth and strength from every touch. But the healers want me outside, so I have to go out.“Arghhh!! It hurts!" she cried, the sound of the night's silence interrupted by a cry of pain. The healers forbade me from entering the room, and I could only hear moans and screams from behind the door. Anxiety swept through my heart, I couldn't wait to hear news about Nola's condition.Suddenly, a healer came out of the room and approached me.“My King, you can come in and accompany the Queen,” he said to me.I went into the room and held Nola's hand. Nola held my hand tightly, her eyes staring at the ceiling of the room filled with darkness. Deep moans escaped her lips every time a contraction hit. The light of the full moon, even though it couldn't enter th
That morning, the sunlight played games with the leaves, creating a magical blend of shade and golden glow. The fresh scent of flowers and herbs wafts in the clean air. It was as if nature itself was participating in celebrating this historic moment.The once simple assembly hall now sparkles in the splendor of natural jewels. Folded flags made of silk fluttered brilliantly, and decorations made from dried leaves and fresh flowers decorated every corner of the room. The light from the shining totems reflected the colors of life, implying a new awakening of their power.A moment before the sunlight reached its peak, I came to Nola who was getting ready in the preparation room. The soft light from the crystal chandelier reflected a beautiful glow on her dress made from natural materials, giving her an aura of stunning elegance.When she turned around to see me, her sweet smile filled the room. "Ares," she said in a soft voice that seemed to wash away my nervousness. "You shouldn't have
In an increasingly debilitating state, my voice broke in the reflection of the vibrations of light around us. Light flashed, creating an invisible yet powerful energy network. "I won't give up, even though my body feels increasingly fragile. I won't let you be trapped in this darkness, Nola," I said with trembling determination. The words seemed to be a mantra, strengthening my will even when my body could barely support itself.The Shadow Diamond Totem, glowing with fading black light, spoke in a voice filled with urgency. "Ares Jones, we don't have much time. We have to hurry. Nola needs us.""The Grand Healing Totem's light is starting to fade," she added, her voice filled with determination but sounding fragile. "We have very limited time, Ares Jones."Deep anxiety welled up within me, making me realize that not only these totems were on the verge of destruction, but also Nola and my own life. However, I knew I couldn't give up. It is my mission to reunite Nola's divided soul. Des
The dream just disappeared, fading into endless darkness, and Nola seemed to disappear from my field of vision. I remained asleep, without dreams or images haunting my mind. My body responded deeply to rest, immersing me in an undefined dream world. Abstract images awaken and disappear over an immeasurable span of time. Nola, as if closely linked to the dream world, moved far from the horizon of my mind, disappearing in the surrounding darkness.As morning approached, the sun's rays seeped in through the thin curtains, painting streaks of light on the walls of the tent. I woke up slowly, thrown back into the real world. Rex stood tall by Nola's side, his eyes reflecting a deep worry, hinting at thoughts hovering over the worst possible possibilities."How is she doing, Rex?" I said in a voice that was still hoarse, following the footsteps of the dreamland I had just grasped.Rex looked at me sincerely, his eyes filled with deep worry. “She is still in a weak state; there are no signi
The aroma of spices and herbs filled the air when my eyes opened. My body felt heavy as if all my energy had been drained. Gathering the power to repair The Shadow Diamond Totem was indeed a tiring task.Beside me, Mora stood with a concerned look. "Ares, you are lucky to have survived. But don't underestimate your strength. Don't forget your own limits," he said in a soft voice, hand holding out a healing potion. It tastes bitter but immediately brings freshness to my body."Thank you, Mora. It feels like I was born again," I said with a faint smile.Mora smiled softly. "You will be fine, Ares. The entire tribe is grateful for your sacrifice," she said, her eyes shining with respect."Where is The Shadow Diamond Totem?" I demanded, my curiosity peaked.Mora looked at me warmly. "She is resting in the Shadow Totem Tribe's temple. She needs time to recover her strength from all this."She went to tell the others that I had woken up. Not long after, Toth Karan and the totem warriors ent
In the chaotic battlefield, with magic explosions and echoing groans, I stood before The Shadow Diamond Totem who kept screaming. Her body swayed, trying to break free from the totem warrior's bindings, but her strength only depleted further.I realized that in a state like this, where she was still conscious and twitching wildly, it was very difficult for me to repair her totem codes. My concentration must be stronger than before. However, I can't watch her continue to suffer like this."Get some more blood, we need her weaker!" I ordered several nearby totem warriors. They responded swiftly, opening buckets of blood and meticulously watering The Shadow Diamond Totem. Every drop of blood entered her body, producing the desired effect.However, the woman's desperate screams still roared, filling the battlefield. Bil, with tense eyes, found his courage. "She has to pass out, Ares. We need you completely focused," he said, trying to calm himself and decide on that bold move. I nodded fi
All the totem warriors, men and women who dared to face this darkness, had positioned themselves behind a tight wall of protection. Their eyes were full of determination and firmness as they waited for his next order. The air was thick with tension, and only the sound of the gentle breeze blowing through the leaves could be heard.Only I dared to stand in the middle of the open field, in front of The Shadow Diamond Totem that was almost formed. Swirls of wind and black smoke surrounded him, creating an extremely frightening effect, as if he was the dark embodiment of the subconscious.I was tireless, even though every fiber of my muscle felt tense, and my breath came in short gasps. With strong will, I transferred energy from myself to The Shadow Diamond Totem, seeking to fill the void within him with light and goodness.However, the longer I used my energy, the more tired I became. As weakness began to creep in, I could no longer hold back the cry of exhaustion. "Ahhh!" my cry trembl
The three of us called all the tribe leaders for a meeting at the meeting camp. Tough and cool-headed steps are the price that must be paid to save Nola. Moonlight radiated softly in the night sky, giving this gathering a sacred feel.Toth Karan sat with a serious attitude, his deep eyes filled with deep worry. Rex, with his might, gave off an aura of confidence in every word he spoke. I, trying to hold tightly to my anxious heart, stood in front of the leaders who looked at me with hope."Leaders, we have important news we need to convey," I said in a calm but authoritative voice. "I have found information in the Totem Code Book that can help us save Nola and return the Shadow Diamond Totem to its original state."Mora looked at me curiously. "Original state? What do you mean Ares?"“In the past, this totem was a source of goodness for this tribe. However, there was damage that caused the totem code to have problems. "If we can fix it, the totem will return to being a source of goodn
After eating the beast meat provided by Toth Karan, the feeling of fatigue in my body began to recede. New energy flowed through me, reigniting my enthusiasm to complete this mission."Thank you, Toth Karan. This meat really helps me," I said gratefully to Toth Karan.Toth Karan nodded with a warm smile. "That's good to hear, leader. Is there anything else I can do for you?"I thought for a moment, then finally decided. "Toth Karan, I need some time alone. Can you leave me here so I can concentrate?"Toth Karan nodded in understanding. "Of course, Ares. I'll leave you alone. If you need me again, I'll be in my cabin."After Toth Karan left, I returned to focusing on the thick book open in front of me. Carefully, I touched the surface and started reading again with full concentration.As I delved deeper into the contents of the book, my spiritual eyes began to drift over the pages filled with runic writings and symbols. I began to feel the energy of the totem code book itself radiating
