Chapter 15 Chapter: 015 Between Life and Death (1/2)
[Being betrayed by the gods and losing everthing i had fought for.
I swore that one day.
The heavens will fall before my feet!
The stars will shatter before my eyes!
All creation will temble at the sound of my voice!
And maybe at this day i will discover the truth.]
As Chloe read the inscriptions, Elijah felt something familiar coming from these words. What he didn't know was that years later those words would put him on a path with no return.
Elijah was looking a the stone in trance as they heard a loud noise of the door closing.
Chloe looked at him in despair. ”Ell, what we do now!? the three hours aready passed and if our parents think we are dead?”
”Don't think about it. Let's find a way back first.”
He really also afraid to tell the truth, but for some reason the Giant Golden Gate within his soul didn't allow him to lose control of his emotions, letting him think clearly.
After looking arround searching for another way to go, he saw two different ways behind the stone, one left and one right.
”We will go to the right.”
”Why?”
””The right is in the north, and the royal city lies north of the forest.”
...
Using the light from Elijah's eyes as a torch they walked thouth the passage.
”This should probably be a maze or a dungeon, so there must be traps and monsters, we must be careful.” Elijah said looking at Chloe.
although she did not like it when Elijah talked to her in a commanding tone like he was much older than her, she always nod obediently. ”Ok, I will!”
...
Meanwhile in the royal city.
Some people dressed in black had arrived in the royal city looking for something.
Their leader who was a woman using a mask but you could still see her sparkling blue eyes, and golden wavy hair falling.
She looks to a thin man beside her and asked. ”It's here where you said the reincarnation of our goddess was living?”
The thin man took out a ring that glows with a green light from his pocket. ”I'm sure, high priest Alexis, I used the aura in the artifact that our Goddess had left us, to detect where our Goddess is, and from the light on the ring she is in the southern sector of the city.
He pointed to where the branches forest direction.
”Then let's go before that old fox detects us.”
What they din't notice was a woman wearing a black robe and a hood covering her head, letting out only her silver eyes, while she followed them.
