Two week earlier, inside a cave in an unknown environment, strange beings cladded in furs with most of them heavily muscled at the act of expecting someone, they surrounded the only fire in the cave, to provide light as it was heavily snowing and winding outside, suddenly, heard a distant whooshing sound coming closer towards the entrance as they were at alert, looking fixedly at the entrance, then they noticed a glowing onyx eyes as a figure came in, the fire showing his yellowish-brown skin also heavily muscled, a long knotted dreadlock on his head being dragged on the floor with no garment worn to cover his torso but cladded with fur trousers and a fur cape, on his shoulder a huge deer larger than a full grown elephant was held with one arm while he effortlessly walked inside then dropped it on the floor, right in front of them and looked at the beings inside the cave.

" He turned his head back,"Vanilla... ?"To Peirce's amazement Vanilla was right behind him heavily breathing while leaning on a tree."Sorry... I thought... " Vanilla answered slowly shoving her hair from her face as she stared at Sniffia standing still while gazing up to a huge tree in front of them then Vanilla examined the whole area, noticed Sniffia was right at the center of a plain ground, surrounded by huge trees.“Why did you run?” Vanilla asked walking towards Sniffia as she tried maintaining her breaths with each steps she took, Peirce sighed about walking to Sniffia also, he stopped and noticed a strange figure up, standing and shaded with two blazi

The teenagers were totally struck by fear on seeing the Expat who caught the little red bird. The Expat stares at the bird in his hand then sniffed it,No scent?! He thought then he frowned surveying the whole area, “who is here?!” he roared, the teenagers reacted to his voice as some were already shaking with sobs.Node swallowed checking and thinking if he could do anything as the youth leader to save them from this. 'Catastrophe'If we ambush him, he will definitely snapped our fragile body into half in seconds or others will come from behind. Node thought. “Hmmm what should I do?

Node feared then he touched Lola's thigh, “Lola it will be alrigh
The evening sun cast long shadows on the peaceful soil of the Humane Kingdom as the slanting rays of setting sun giving a warm reddish-orange tinge to the sky under the chiming bell against a background of chattering and clamouring of the Humanes at their streets. Wren was staring at the window alone in her room observing the birds in the sky, flying freely around the huge bell tower in middle of the Kingdom, with her hand on her chest still slightly, feeling the overwhelming force in her heart earlier at the courtyard, she took in a deep breath slowly walked to the mirror, picked up her tiara on her bed, raised it up to her head as it partially touched her plaited hair while staring at her reflection in the mirror then heavily sighed and threw it back to her bed. Everything she'd experienced the past few days began to flow in her mind; about what the Seers predicted; about her heart sometimes rapidly beating for some unknown emotions; about her inescapable marriage setup between th
Meanwhile at the Inhumane village. Peirce’s Grandma, holding a wooden bowl in her hand, in it was all sort of herbs in various colors, she brought it outside from her hut to treat the sick who were at her door step, each one with one relative or friend, she greeted them with a smile then began her treatment as she was treating, they heard noises coming from the village entrance, she turned to check, noticed many teenagers coming towards her looking sad and trembling while most of them were quietly sobbing behind as four of the teenaged boys in front carried a wrapped body on their shoulders walking towards Peirce’s Grandma.“Lola. Where is the Youth leader and Vanilla… ?" Peirce’s Grandma asked, gently, glanced at the wrapped body on the teenaged boys shoulders, “Is that my Grandson?” she dropped everything and went to them staring at the wrapped body.“I… We… couldn’
Young Vanilla walked up to him, as the rain gracefully and heavily fell on them, she noticed the person kneeling in the mud in front of her was someone of her age judging from the height and weight. “What are you doing here?” she asked in a low tone, touching the person's back, “Hello.” “Ahhh!!” “Ahhh!!” “Wait what?! I know you. You are who they called Mudlark.” “Mudlark? Actually my name is Peirce.” Young Peirce said without looking at her but focused more on the swamp in front of him. “What are you looking at, all by yourself. Hm?” young Vanilla asked, Peirce scratched his head. “Chai! I can’t say but during my time outside the village walls… ” “You went outside?! But you are too young to do so, what about your parents, shouldn't they stop you?” "I don't have." 
Young Peirce couldn’t believed his eyes.“An Elder?!” Without hesitating, he scurried as his legs could, unknowingly dropping a piece of paper near young Vanilla. She looked at him in disappointment then she sighed, spotted a piece of paper on the floor near the stone young Peirce sat earlier. it's contained drawings and information of a specific weapon which hasn’t been invented yet.She picked it up, "Hmmm, What is this?"Her father came closer.“What were you doing with that boy?!” Bolu asked. “Don’t tell me he was the one with you, two days ago.” Vanilla couldn’t answer before turning to her Father removing her mask and stared at the ground, feeling sorry. Her father sighed. “Let’s go your mother is having a baby soon.” Vanilla face brightened up and ran to where her mother was. “Ah! Look how happy she
The young queen's eyes scanned the grand hall for the voice, her gaze darting between the now-familiar marble pillars and crystal chandeliers that cast a kaleidoscope of colours across the the large place. Suddenly, she spotted a familiar figure –July, standing by the entrance with an air of quiet confidence. With a burst of excitement, the queen rushed towards July in a speed that would put the speed of light to shame, flinging her arms around July in a tight hug, lifting her off the ground, completely with ease.July's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly returned the hug, a warm smile spreading across her face. "Wren, it's so wonderful to see you again!" The young queen gently dropped her then pulled back, her eyes shining with tears like a morning dew. "Ms. July, why didn't you come back to the Humane Kingdom after all these years of leaving without informing me? I've missed you so much!" July's expression turned solemn, her eyes clouding over with memories like a stormy sk
"The Divine Being, with the help of the dragons and a small group of humans who remained loyal to their world, fought valiantly against the Destroyer and its Tainted followers," the voice said.Darkness crept over the world, like a suffocating shroud. The Tainted emerged, their bodies twisting and contorting, elongating into grotesque, inhuman shapes. Wren's gaze fell upon one Tainted, its eight arms splayed out like a macabre spider. Each arm wielded a different instrument of war: a drum, its surface etched with ancient runes; a flute, its melody a haunting whisper; a harp, its strings vibrating with an otherworldly energy."The battle raged on, with potencies and swords clashing in a spectacular display of light and sound," the voice continued."As the battle intensified, the Divine Being bestowed upon some of the humans fighting alongside Him a precious gift: armors and weapons forged from "Dinosaurium," a metal not from our world, said to be one of the hardest in the universe. Thi
The runes on the floating pillars pulsed with an ethereal glow, casting a luminous aura on Wren's face. As the environment transformed into a storytelling atmosphere, the air vibrated with anticipation."In the dawn of time," a low, rumbling voice began, "humans - that's what we called ourselves before we became known as the Immortals - lived in harmony with dragons, cultivating thriving communities on the ground while the majestic creatures soared through the skies."The scene unfolded like a rich tapestry, woven from threads of sapphire, gold, and crimson. Wren's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she beheld the ancient world, teeming with life and vitality."Life was simple," the voice continued, "with humans farming, crafting, and multiplying, unaware of the impending turmoil that would soon disrupt our peaceful existence."A dark silhouette loomed on the horizon, casting a dramatic shadow across the landscape. Wren's gaze remained steadfast, her heart filled with a deep sense of won
"With pleasure!" The Immortal twins said in unison, their voices weaving together in perfect harmony like the sweet, haunting melody of a mournful violin. Then, a profound silence dawned on the three of them, heavy with expectations that hung in the air like the promise of a thunderstorm.The silence was so oppressive that every breath and heartbeat seemed to build towards a crescendo, as if the very fate of the world hung in the balance. Then, a large sword dropped among the hovering weapons, cratering the ground mere inches from the female twin's warrior-like boots, which gleamed with a deadly sheen in the faint light.Simultaneously, a dual sword dropped near the male twin, its blades flashing like shards of ice in the dim illumination. Then, in the blink of an eye, the Immortal twins charged at the young queen with deadly precision, their movements a blur of steel and shadow.Wren dodged their attacks with incredible agility, bypassing the middle of the twins' crossed weapons with
The air crisp and cold with a hint of mystique. The young queen stood, hands clenched before the hunched-back Immortal in the very heart of the ancient forest. Unknown to her, many days passed by while continuously sparring with the two-faced Immortal, took a toll on her.Her fists gently lowered by the hunched-back Immortal large palm. The Immortal’s eyes gleamed with sympathy beholding the young queen’s exhaustion, his gaze filled with deep understanding of the weight she bore. “Protector,” The hunched-back Immortal spoke in low, rumbling voice, Wren stared with her face swelling and discolored. “Have you had a bubble bath before?” “Uh…” The young queen snickered in pains at the Immortal’s joke then she steeled herself, her determination evident in her unwavering gaze. “I was born for this,” she declared, her voice firm and resolute showing no fear or resentment towards all that happened to her so far. With a subtle nod, the hunched-back Immortal spoke. “Now that the air around
The air around was icy grip with tension. Wren facing off against the two-faced creature for the first ever lesson she could get from the Immortals. The dimly lit chamber, once a grand palace materialized into new architecture, revealing an arena, a vast and rugged expanse, consisting of various obstacles looming on one corner. The towering walls of rough-hewn stones enclosed in strong breeze. Deep, yawning chasms that seemed to swallow all light and sounds of a really large sparring terrain of solid grounds as shrinking shadows closing in like a suffocating shroud. The two-faced creature eyes blazing with an otherworldly hunger, sneering at Wren as the palace changed in the background. “I’ve witnessed your skills so many times.”“Witness?” Wren asked then noticed her clothes were modified into distinguished fighting clothes. “Yeah. I was also there when you froze up a dust devil—but I’m not impressed. Yet.” The two-faced creature sharpened fangs elongated as red-mist strongly ooz
Strange air filled with a redolent, unworldly fragrance, veiled with darkness while walking through the portal, soon shimmering hues of gilt red-yellow seen at the end of what it looks like a well crafted tunnel appeared to only trapped the darkness from within and no furthermore.Entering into the light would stung the very eyes of every first timer there, revealing a large courtyard, the estranged walls whispering ancients secrets to those who listened close, glittering towers sets as the full foundation, casting a warm, gentle glow of what looked like a hidden palace’s architecture blended in ancient civilizations. The young queen at the center of it all doing nothing but mesmerizing the timeless beauty of the place. It was here she would undergo her training surrounded by the wisdom and potency of the Immortals. “You are here-Welcome, the Protector.” An impassive low yet mysterious voice echoed, filling the courtyard with it’s grace. Wren tracing it to a raised dais overlookin
Beautiful starlight flashed amazingly through the gaps of moving darkened clouds above as almost deafening silence intruded the scene below. Sidikat, stood unmoved staring sharply to Peirce distance away from her front, shortly after, Lazarus appeared along the two little beast being girls walking behind with side looked eyes. “Excluding my daughter, who are those two boys… sons of your friend?” Asked Sidikat. “No. I—" Lazarus stuttered. “I know everything alright, I’m just—” She zoomed to Peirce, clawed her fingers tightly around Peirce’s neck. She was so fast that none of them couldn’t move even for Lazarus. “Now tell me the reason why I shouldn’t claw out your wide pipe right at this very moment, destroyer of worlds?”“Windpipe?! How dare you!--” Node yelled strained grunted exacting with all his strength to stand upright. “Stupid. Trying really hard to look tough. Look around, I’m really getting annoyed with that attitude of yours, boy with long hair-- among my daughter and
Lazarus, heaping from trees to trees towards the assorted loud noises coming from many distance away as the two beast being little girls surprisingly keeping up the pace without breaking a sweat just behind Lazarus. Hmmm… Lazarus said to himself, sighted monsters of the forest of the Giants’ domain below racing to the exact location the loud sounds were coming from.Meanwhile. Unexpectedly, purple glowing objects swatted the eyes of the mysterious being’s face at the center as the side faces rolled their eyes, spotted Node staring intently, holding onto four glowing stones under the large root's shades dimly illuminated in purple. “That’s for only focusing on my glowing ass… Maniac.” Peirce flew with a kick towards the blinded centered face. The large mysterious being heavily took a step forward with a slam into the battered ground. The ground cratered as shock waves were created from the impact affecting Peirce’s momentum bouncing him back by the force about colliding into a reall
