The Purple. After the Black Warlock I slept for a long time. I wanted to regain my strength as the fight had left me exhausted. When I woke up I wondered how long that I had slept, but I was afraid that I had slept too long. “How long have been out?” I asked. “Twenty four hours.” she said. “WHAT!” I shouted. “You were exhausted and I thought that you needed the rest.” he said. You need not worry about that. Why? Because the more the spell is broken the faster time flows here. Thank you voice inside my head. I am not a voice inside your head. Whatever. We all got up and went on our way. We soon came to a purple forest and hand lavender coloured grass and with trees very dark purple bark and lilac leaves. “Beautiful!” “Naturally, but, remember, it's dangerous.” Sir Ellishun said. “After all this it where the purple warlock lives.” I nodded as I breathed in. I could smell Turkish delight and honey. The further I went in the stronger it got. H...

The Black Over the pat day I had learnt all about the Blue Rock, well all of what my mum and aunt knew. They had told me everything from their adventures in the rock. As they told me it became all too clear that they described a different world to the one that I visited. Yet I also got the impression that both our worlds were both dangerous and alive with a will of it's own. They then told me that they had tried to destroy it several times but always in vain. They soon came to the realisation that they couldn't so they decided that one sister would keep and hide the rock. To a point that it could not be found. Too bad that I did. Then again I could not deny that I did feel like it was calling to me. “So what now?” I asked. “Well,as I said, we can't destroy it, but we can't keep you away from it either.” she said. “How come?” I asked. “As the previous owner couldn't keep us away from it after all, we were in our trances.” “Blue trances we called...

Encounter They all woke in the early hours in the morning. It was still cold and dark outside and the wind was blowing hard, however they did not let that stop them. No, they packed as they heard the winds strange and haunting hum. Kir and the others walked down the stairs and left behind some coins that would pay for their time. They were making their way to the docs when a dark cloud appeared above their heads. Ignoring it they continued. They were about to get there when they spotted that the cloud above their heads was moving at a rate that the cloud should not. The Chronicler looked up at it directly and squinted her eyes at it for a moment, then her eyes widened for a moment and she became pale. “Run!” she shouted. “Why?” Ryo asked. “That cloud contains the Demon King Wolfox and Dark Master Lord Gajellidor Darcrogh!” They looked at each-other Cari and Ryo lowered themselves into their fighting stance just waiting for him to arrive. “What're you doing?”...

The Tree Of Slumber “Now for the final tree!” Oran declared when they were about to set off. They had spent a couple of days recovery. Now that they had recovered, they were all itching to get back on the road. They just could not wait to get this one over and get to the next land. They all climbed into the carriage for the last time and was off and they landed on the land below before they even had time to register. It seemed that black unicorns were the fastest unicorns in the land. When their hooves touched the ground they were greeted by Count Ardulac. “It's to give him back his unicorns.” the Chronicler said as she got out. They took their things and said their goodbyes. They waited until they had flown away until they turned back and then looked at the map, knowing that from now on they were going on foot. “We need to get here.” she said as she pointed to a large town. “It's a large town called Karisnow.” “I've heard about that place, it's said...

The Fourth Tree They soon set off the following day for the next page. They were feeling good about themselves, after all their time here would soon draw to a close. Then they would be on the next place and then they would free that and soon the whole of Merth would be free. Yet despite all that, they all had the dread knowing that somewhere on their journey that they would have to encounter the Dark Master Lord as the Chronicler whipped out her map. She pointed to the corner. “That's where the next tree is.” she said. “Tell me, who supplied you with this information?” Kir asked. “I broke into the library of the Dark Master Lord's himself.” she told him. “Although, at the time, I didn't know. That's how I know all that I do. Including all that he's got going on.” “Speaking of which, how did you know that we were supposed to take care of all this?” she asked. “I have a friend that had visions of this.” “And how do you that they were visions?” s...

The Tree Of Illusions “So, all we have to do is take down all these trees and then go to the next land and free then of whatever the Dark Master Lord had placed in that land to keep people imprisoned there. How long do you plan to go along with this?” “Yes, and I plan to go along with this as long as possible, although, once we defeat whatever it is. Although, what that child said. I just can not get it out of my head!” she said as they came to the next page. “Me too. Although I do have to ask, how long do you expect to be able to do this?” he asked. “As long as I can. Although I have to admit that I have never felt like this free regardless.” she said. “I mean avoid getting killed by bounty hunters and assassins?” “As long as they don't have any immortal killers, although, I never took my vows under my true name.” she said. “And how long do you think that it would be until one of them does?” “I can no quite say. They are rare things to find and most of ...

The Bronze Tree Oran and the unicorns landed on the second page. They were told to wait for the others, however despite being told to stay put where they were, they decided to look around the place. They soon came to a beautiful golden tree with silver and bronze leaves. She could not believe just how beautiful the tree was nor could she even believe that she was even seeing it. She reached out her hand to touch it. Just to make sure that what she was seeing before her was real. Then a hand quickly reached out and grabbed her wrist before she could even have the pleasure of touching it. Not even the nails or fingertips got anywhere close to it. “I wouldn't do that if I were you.” shouted a man. She looked up to see who he was. The first thing that she stared into was his enchanting amber eyes and then she noticed his white fringe. Then she saw that the rest of his hair was black. “Believe me kid. That thing changes people who touch it. I had friends that did and t...

The First Page The group woke up an hour before the sun came up. They landed back on the island on the surface page on the backs of Ryo and Cari. The Chronicler and Scar were on the back of Cari and Oran was on the back of Ryo. They landed before the sun came up and they were given their clothes before it came up making them revert back to their human form. Then when they returned they were shivering, even-though they were well covered. Their breath made a bigger cloud than the others. “By the Demon Realm! How do you cope?”Cari asked. “It's harder than it looks.” he moaned. “No wonder my father wanted to protect me!” “Well mine didn't, but then again my father was eating out of the palm of a mad witch back then.” “Well, at least you've got people to protect you now.” she said as she hooked her arm around him. “Well I don't need it I've been good on my own.” he said as he shrugged it off. “I know, so was I, but you're no longer alone and...
