94 Ancient Knowledge (1/2)
”Since you have stepped on the road to become my avatar, I would impart some knowledge of the past.The Artifact you have is called the Embodiment of Suffering and is part of the 5 piece set of the Plaguebringer used by my avatar during the war against the Dragonkin, after the war ended the items were seal and the previous owner move on into my realm.Once the set is complete it would provide the owner with some divine power using my divinity over poison and diseases. A few years after the war against the dragons, Odos allied himself with other so called good alignment gods and they issued a command to kill and steal all their enemies legendary sets in order to weaken our hold on the realm.They would have succeeded if it wasn't for the fact that Elysians have free will and more than half didn't answer the call so we were able to retaliate.A lot of items were stolen but as far as I know they didn't manage to get a full set”.
”The embodiment of suffering looks like a ring but that is the shape the previous owner gave it. It can take the shape of any accessory you want from a neck piece to an ankle bracelet. I have unlocked this function of the piece but everything else will remain seal until you reach the Abyss.If you managed to make it there It would be yours to wield but until then I can't afford to have it stolen in the unseal form”
Elune placed the item close to her ankle and it became a really beautiful bracelet, even though it remained seal, she could still feel that her aura became even darker and her intuition told her all spells of the poison and disease branch would be strengthen.Without knowing how much time had lapsed Elune walked out of the room to find a lot of noise coming from the top floors.When she reached the main floor alongside Midori, she found out that the Awakening Ceremony had already started and Rahz and Riddick were waving for her to come over.
Amber and Tom were at the front watching their little girl choose her God and her path with smiles that went from ear to ear.Emma looked around before it was her turn and she was a little nervous but when she saw Rahz and the others cheering her on she calm down and got ready for her prayer.
”Oh great gods of creation, please grant me the ability to help the people in need. I would like to follow the path of the healer and Cure all the diseases of the world”.
Whoosh.. Whoosh.. Whoosh
Three columns came down, The God of Justice, The God of Valor and a very gentle light from Xeralis the goddess of nature.Emma debate for a second and was deeply attracted to the gentle nature of Xeralis, it just felt like mother Earth was calling her.The moment she stepped into the light for a very split second a killing intent was release from a dark corner of the temple, unfortunately nobody was able to catch it.Out of the 15 kids that awaken during the ceremony 6 got accepted by the God of Justice but refused the offer.As they were leaving, Rahz bumped into an individual that didn't even apologized and just left in a hurry, somehow Rahz felt it was the aura and silhouette of a person he had seen before but he couldn't place it.After a nice dinner with Emma and her family, the team said goodbye and quickly left towards the South entrance to the town before leaving Naas and heading towards the forest they had hunted many times before.The scouts left after the team and met with a mishap halfway through their journey as a 20 ft Basilisk pop up from the earth and devour half a scout before using poison breath on the second one.
It all happened so fast, they didn't have a chance to retaliate.With the people shadowing broken in two,literally, the team made their way 30 miles away from the town to a highly populated area.Elune gave Riddick his portion of the Dragonkin blood and they all started running away from the spot.
Riddick waited until his connection to Rahz was diminished enough signifying they were at a safe distance and drank the contents of the crystal flask.Riddick was different from Rahz and Midori. His Chaos Body was from the Val'gun bloodline and the little bit of dragon blood didn't get a chance to do anything before it was converted to energy,the taste of it however made Riddick think that anything he had tasted before including Rahz's barbecue was garbage on the side of the road.As Riddick was licking the bowl trying to get just one more drop of that wonderful nectar his body was push towards the second Evolution.
Dark clouds started gathering towards Riddick's location with lightning and thunder reverberating through. Riddick was encase in a dome of chaos fire that pulsated at the rhythm of his heart.
Doom.. Doom... Doom
