 The Lesson Before Sailing Strena, Bash, Chashathrophogh, Zaryb and Cerpheres walked onto the ship. It seemed smaller than the one that she boarded when she was seven years old, but it was large and it was made up of the same wood as her violin. At the front was silver writing. The Quest Voyager It was called. She walked onto the deck and looked back to Cerpheres walking up to her. He helped her adjust to the violin. She was soon able to stroke it well. “Right, time to start on notes. Now move your fingers like this.” “I’m not going to read them?” He chuckled. “Not yet my dear! Right now, you need to learn the motion first.” “How come?” “Did your dear Uncle Zarry teach you the names of fighting moves before he taught you them?” “No.” “Why is that?” “He told me what I needed to know and do the moves before I learnt their names.” “Then this is no different.” She nodded. He soon taught her how to place her fingers on the neck and stroke the strings. Soon he went on to tell her the nam...

 A Battle For Tickets  They soon entered the City Kingdom. It was lively with an energized crowd walking to and from. Strena suddenly was reminded of Jotellen, just this place did not have a dark shadow about the place. No, this place was a very light and bright place. Her eyes darted about the place, looking at the bright and lively colours with people having happy smiles like none had a care in the world. Then she saw families and children laughing and playing. Suddenly she looked away as she felt a pain in her heart. It suddenly hit her, she had forgotten the last time she played like that and she never will know nor have a chance to know. No, in fact, she hardly remembered the last time she was even allowed to be a child! On top of that, she was going to be an adult soon. It seemed like as soon as she could be a child she had to put away all childish things. To her, it seemed to be a joke! She then felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked back to see Cerpheres too close to ...

 Relieved Revelations “So what now?” Zaryb and Strena asked, wiping the last of their sleep out of their eyes. They all waited until they could focus their cloudy minds. They spotted Bash, Chashathrophogh and Cerpheres close their eyes. At first, Strena was afraid that they had fallen back to sleep. Yet when they opened their eyes, they looked relieved. “He’s still there.” Both Chashathrophogh and Bash sighed out of relief. “But it’s been a year! Why would he still be there?” Strena asked. “I don’t know. I guess we will find out when we get there.” He said, splashing his face with ice cold water. “Anyway!” Yawned Chashathrophogh. “We need to go!” So they all walked on, building their strength. Yet Strena, to her utter shock and confusion, noticed that Chashathrophogh looked cute when he yawned. She felt angry at herself for forgetting who he was, when she realized that. She, who did not like the fact that she was starting to notice the man had sternness to his handsome features. So...

 A Time Lost 4th Thursday Foutmoon 516 Years After The 5th Age Of Legends  Sorry for the lack of updates over the past year as I could not put down what I had been through. After all, it was a year ago when we were attacked by Dark Lady Grasharlo. We all were put under one of the many sleeping spells out there. This caused Wolfox some discomfort, which was hilarious. Then we were separated in a cave in the Dreamworld we were trapped in. There I was tempted by the Dark Lady herself! I was shown Uncle Zaryb in chains, along with Bash and Chashathrophogh. She told me that if I killed them all then I would end my nightmare and finally return home. There, I would be safe. I did not believe her, of course, Uncle Zaryb has trained me better than that. Also, I do not think that after learning all that I have about Father, I do not think that I want my throne nor do I think that I will ever be safe. Also Mr Chashathrophogh still scares me even though I do like him. He seems more and mo...

 The Time Lost Bash woke up. She noticed that they were surrounded by overgrowth. She could feel that her clothes were all tighter. She felt the clothes around her chest were even tighter. She slowly pushed her body up and snapped several vines as she pushed the growth off her. She felt exhausted. Then she looked to the left and the right. She saw the others woke up. They looked at her and the one thing that she noticed was that Strena’s clothes were far too small for her too. She noticed the small curve at the chest. She noticed that Chashathrophogh and Zaryb were the same. Even though she and Strena showed signs of aging, they did not. The first thing that she did was sense where the location of Dark Lord Gajellidor Darcrogh was and he had not moved at all. “How long have we been asleep?” She asked. “Judging by your clothes and how much you have aged, I would say a year at least.” Then Zaryb looked at Strena with a shocked and pale face. “What?” Both girls asked. “That means that...

 The Dream Avatar  Knowing that they did not have any other choice, they walked into a large room. The walls and floor were jet back. They looked up to see that there was no furniture. Then they heard a low growl. They looked behind them to see a gigantic panther with bright amber eyes. It looked at them and licked its lips. “Looks like you found me!” She said with a shrug. “Is that…Is that her dream avatar?” “Yes, yes it is!” “Alright, time to get this over and done with!” Bash summoned her bow and fired at her. She bit into the arrow and charged at her. She dived out of the way. Then Chashathrophogh tried to summon a ball of fire but could not! That Zaryb threw tiny daggers at her. She looked back, jumped up and pounced into him. This knocked him down.  She was about to open her mouth before Strena dug her swords into her. She raised her paw and threw it down. The next moment Strena flew across the room and collided with Chashathrophogh. Then returned to Zaryb. Then Bas...

 The Castle They arrived at the castle and the sun was going down. It was tall with black bricks and scarlet roof tiles. In the centre were a set of purple double doors. At either corner were a set of tall towers. In front was a green cobbled road with dry dead mud at both ends. The castle itself had red and green stained glass windows. “Do we knock?” “Why?” “To be polite!” Chashathrophogh let out a huff as they walked up to the front doors. Yet Bash spotted that Zaryb looked slightly sorrowful. “Are you alright?” “Yeah. It is that knowing the mom that I wake, Wolfox would be there in my head.” Cerpheres placed a hand on his head and pulled him close. “Don’t worry, if he came out I would love to see him in action!” “Get your hands off me!” “Make me!” He then just punched him in the face right there and then. He was about to punch him again until he caught it and licked the blood from the nose. “Goooood booooy! Now, when you wake, keep that attitude. Wolfox will like you more that w...

 The Dream Creatures They all walked away from the village. As they did they all looked at Strena, who was slightly taller than she was. Then to Zaryb, who looked less gloomy. In fact, he looked almost at peace. “So, why are we looking so at easy my dear beauty?” Cerpheres purred, as he draped an arm around him. Zaryb looked down and smiled. “I guess that this is the first time in years that I’ve not had Wolfox whispering in my ears. It is rather peaceful.” “Oh?” “Yes, and when I find something to get that thing out of you, you will enjoy more moments like this.” “But what if there aren’t anything that can do that?” “There is and I will find it.” He let out a bittersweet laugh. “Why do you never give up on me?” He rolled his eyes. “Do I really have to say?” “No. I guess not.” “Uncle Zaryb, once you’re free, what do you want to do?” He looked at her and his eyes narrowed. He looked at the far distance as he thought for a moment. He carried a deep frown as he looked puzzled. “Honestl...

 The Dream People  They walked into a village. The homes were made of stone with uneven glass windows with back doors. The roads were cobbled and there were no pavements. There were many men and women dressed in all black. Their faces were all pale as death with heavy bags underneath their dead eyes. They had no expressionless faces and went about their business like clockwork. They all looked around for anything that they could indicate that there was something off. Bash then walked up to one. “Hello.” “Why are you talking to them?” Asked Cerpheres. “They might have something to say.” He smiled and nodded. “Hello. You are real people, I see.” She said with an emotionless voice. “Yes.” “Then I am to give you this.” She said, giving her a map. “You are to travel to the Dream Castle. That is where her main Dream Avatar is, there it is waiting for you. That is if you can get there.” “And what do you mean by that?” That was when the rest of the village crowded around them. Then th...
