Chaos is universal. There was no place without it; and without it, life would be incomplete. The Dreamscape was facing a period of unprecedented crisis; for their Supreme was no more the apex existence of their world. However, only a few were aware of this. For those whose lives were devoid of the knowledge of other planets and Supremes, nothing had changed. Order's rule had changed little for those who belonged to backwater planets. One of such planets was the Word of the Three Great Races. It was important to remember however, that even gold was found in the muddiest of places. So it was with the World of the Three Great Races. It may be a weak world filled with little knowledge about the vast expanse, but it had its own fair share of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. In an Enchanted Forest which was located at the edge of the planet, was a strange mystery. This was a mystery known yet unknown. It was unknown to the folks of this world with very limited power, but known to those
Chaos was universal. It mattered not where one lay one's head, one would find chaos lying next to him or her. Just as the Dreamscape was faced with its own challenges and trials, the hand of fate had not been removed from Zandor either. The world of Zandor was facing a crisis incomparable to any other. One could say that what Zandor was going against was far greater than whatever trial Mane was facing. If Mane deemed Pazuzu a vast ocean, then Zandor's situation was akin to being besieged on all sides by 4 great oceans! So it was now; so it had been for a while now.Within the palace of the Western Empire's royal family, in a room that was desolate of all things but a man, the young Prince of the Western Empire was seated in a cross-legged position. The neatly cut brown hair of the boy - nay, man; for the past few years had forced the young Prince to go through much growth - slightly shivered with the currents of the winds that lifted them to and fro. Like a still boulder the young Pri
Abe's message was received by every Silver Wolf. Aegeus, Jake and John, Selina and Frederick were swift to respond to the message. Everything had long been put in place, and they knew where they would rendezvous upon their summoning. Everyone made haste to the chosen meeting place. Selina and Frederick rode in a magical chariot Frederick had crafted. The handmade artefact was swift and capable of flight. It streaked through the sky like a meteor, easily surpassing a peak Noble in terms of speed.Jake was like a fiery comet. His figure was like the sun in the sky. Although it was day, everyone who saw the second sun marvelled at how brightly it outshone the sun!John wasn't one to be outdone by his brother. A mighty water dragon was conjured by the younger twin brother. It flew right next to Jake with John inside it. The conjured beast was as swift as it was majestic. It didn't lose out to Jake's speed at all!Aegeus' rode upon his rod. Although the weapon was of the same size as a wa
"How long do we have?" Aegeus suddenly asked, and the jovial atmosphere of the team shifted. A solemn wind swept up the joy of each and every Silver Wolf, and the eyes that were gladdened with the view of one another were replaced by gazes that could pierce through a sandstorm."Not long," Abe replied stiffly. As the only Scholar in the team, he was the best person to rely on when it came to locating enemies and estimating the time of arrival. Abe could feel it even before the others arrived. When he was less than a kilometer away, he could already sense that the seal within the forest was being tampered with. Their enemies were already at the door!"A group brawl?!" Selina asked as she equipped her mask and summoned her spear. The long spear had been modified by Frederick during this period of time and didn't look anything like it did a few months ago. It was now entirely red, like it was made out of lava in its entirety. A scorching wind enveloped the place once the spear was summon
Aegeus twirled Aegis around before allowing the strange weapon to escape his grip. Aegis hummed and buzzed as it slowly circled it's master."Let's go," Abe commanded the others, and they sprang into action. Twenty more foreigners had entered their planet. Twenty more thieves had invaded their land, and they were unwilling to allow them to have their way. *Boom*With a powerful burst the Silver Wolves - nay, Hidden Cloak - sprang into action. Their elusive figures were akin to the deadly streams of war and chaos, and their cold eyes indicated that their will to protect their people had long suppressed any fearful thoughts.Aegeus was the last to move. Unlike the others he moved as though he was taking a leisurely stroll. His steps were light yet powerful; for Zandor trembled with his strides. He was the vanguard; he was the protector of the team. The others could fight freely because he was there to watch their backs. As long as he was around, they would not be moved!The twenty intr
20 came!18 remained!Silence filled the battlefield for a short while as the hearts of the intruders comprehended what had just happened. They had lost two peak Nobles! They had lost men who were as strong as themselves. And those men had fallen easily! They were vanquished like bugs being squished. They were treated as pests being disposed off. The hearts of those who remained chilled at the thought of their current situation - all but the three who worshipped the True Goddess."The girl with the spear; we invite you to join the True Goddess. With your talents and your beauty it wouldn't be long before you become a mighty warrior underneath the banner of our liege. When you come you will experience what the outside world is truly like."One of the ladies facing Abe ignored the young Prince and offered an invitation to Selina. Her eyes were filled with pride, and she spoke with certainty. Her use of the word 'when' reflected just how confident she was that Selina would not reject her
"What are you looking at?" Aegeus asked an intruder who had lost his bearings after seeing another taken down so easily. His figure flashed before the man's eyes and with the swiftness of Hermes, he decapitated the unfortunate bloke with nothing but his nails.*Thud*"Now there are only 16," Aegeus mumbled before remembering that he had broken the bones of two intruders and hadn't finished them off."Wheeeew weee" Aegeus whistled loudly, and Aegis heeded his call. The Soul Weapon rushed out, and soon the miserable screams of two men were heard, causing the lights in the hearts of the remaining 14 to grow dim.20 came; 14 remained!In less than a minute, 6 of them had been killed. Many swallowed their spittle with eyes that reflected exactly how they felt. This was fear! The land they thought was easy to pick on was slowly turning out to be their graveyard!"You should pay attention to me," Jake 'kindly' reminded an absentminded foreigner before masterfully hacking the man's body into
*Cling**Bang**Boom**Klang*The forest floor was fractured and bruised all over. Several trees had been felled - not by the work of nature but by forces that suckled at nature's generous breasts - and many lives had been lost. The ground was bloodied and scattered with several broken weapons. Spears, swords, axes, staffs and even strange weapons like lamps and slings decorated the forest floor grotesquely. Many headless bodies littered the ground, allowing the brave scavengers who dared encroach upon this battlefield a feast of brains and eyes."Guh" Letting out a small gurgle, another was added to the list of the dead. As the man fell, the sounds of battle ceased, leaving the survivors panting heavily. "When is the next group coming in? How far away are they?" Selina asked as she wiped the sweat off her brow. Her eyes were filled with exhaustion, and her soaked clothes told that she was at her limit; and this was no surprise for she and the others had been battling for over three
