Chapter 519 - Bringing back the dead (2/2)

”Correct, although your words have only made me realise that what they said was true, and I hoped it wasn't.” Monk replied. ”Using the power inside Van, they hope to open up a portal. The Shadow was able to open up a portal before but it didn't succeed like it had hoped.”

”What do you mean?” Martha asked. ”What type of portal are you talking about?”

”Using Van, just like before they can open up a portal to Hell, but it is not Hell as we know it. This is a special place where dragons lie once they have died. The Shadow successfully summoned one before using Gary, but that was a failure. For some reason, the Shadow is hoping to summon all the dragons and allow them to roam free on Bronzeland once again. The more time we waste, the quicker this will become a reality and we have to stop them.”

It sounded beyond crazy what Monk was suggesting to them. Before they knew about Ray they thought that dragons were just a myth, but at the same time it didn't make sense for Monk to lie about these things, for it didn't change much of the decision they had to make.

In the end, the one that broke their silence was Monk.

”I never expected them to get Van so soon, but what you all don't know is that the Dark Guild has been wanting to separate from the Shadow for a while now. There have been several attacks on the villages within the shadow continent, and some of them are awfully suspicious. It looks like with a little more investigation, I can change their minds, and perhaps our two sides can join together.”

”Join sides with the Dark Guild!” Katie scoffed at the thought.

What he was suggesting sounded barbaric. Even before the shadow existed the Dark Guild and the Knights of Avrion were mortal enemies, and now they were suggesting to join together.

”It's a big if.” Monk replied. ”What I suggest is for you to go and try to stop them using Van, by any means possible, and I will try to find evidence on the Shadow, that's why I volunteered to come here, but this doesn't look to be the shadows doing.”

With that said, Monk walked away giving the group a lot to think about.

It was clear what he meant by the words 'any means possible', if they had to, they should kill Van to stop the world becoming overrun with dragons.

”I think we should listen to him.” Martha spoke. ”We can send a message to Sylvia asking for support. I fear that this may cause a big war. Ray is still in the shadow continent, and he will be able to follow us. I know this is dangerous, but this is too important to not try. A lot of our lives may be lost, but it's also a chance to stop the shadow from completing their goal.”
