Bandit raids have been slowly increasing, the animals are growing more aggressive and plants wilt and wither faster than before, but Nínimel isn't the only one sensing a change. Edlin Seadweller brave knight of the water realm can sense an unrest in the deep. Creatures who slept for so long are being awoken. Neta Silentblade werewolf assassin has been offered more jobs and has been attacked more often. Allzeh Skyflyer noticed the crowds getting ruder and the males getting more aggressive. A dark shadow is looming at the edge of Land of Eight./p

I felt a sudden intrusion at our eastern border. Bolted up in my seat. "Contact the eastern scouts!" I commanded. One of the servants went running away. "What is it, your Majesty?" On of the council members asked. "It is a wind Nymph. An Aurea." I said. "An Aurea? How unusual." My advisor Simony said. "Yes." I muttered. "Meeting dismissed!" I called out leaving the discussion hall. I walked to the front gate. "Your Majesty." The guards said bowing. I gave them a small nod. I waited under the shade of a redwood for a scout to arrive./p

I saw that she was not alone. With her was a black haired man who floated just above the ground. A long white flowing robe trailing behind him as if blown by a gentle breeze. I stood as they approached me. "Your Greatness." The Aurea said bowing. The scout bowed also. When they stood straight up once more I asked, "What brings you to the forest floating one?" "There is trouble brewing on the edge of the wind realm." He answered. "What kind of trouble?" I asked. "The metal realm has made plans to invade. We come to you for assistance." I frowned, the metal realm hadn't caused any trouble since the Realm Wars. "The metal realm has been at peace with almost every realm, why have they decided this now?" I asked aloud. "I do not know." The Aurea said. Before I could say anymore a messenger came running up to me. "Your Majesty! There is trouble near the south border! Creatures from the shadow realm are trying to get in! We do not know how much longer we can hold our ground." I gasped running away my silver hair flowing behind me./p

"Update on the southern troubles! Quickly." I said running to the great map. "Wolves, wraiths and goblins are trying to cross the border." Someone shouted. "Wraiths! Why in the name of Gorger would they leave their mountain caves?" I asked. No one could answer my question. "Quickly a carriage!" I shouted. "One is already prepared." Simony said. I rushed to the southern path. Faster than a newborn colt I was in the carriage and off to the site of trouble./p

The small battle was already bloody. "Stop!" I commanded. Everyone in sight turned to look at me included the creatures of the shadow realm. "Why are you trying to come to the forest realm?" I asked. One of the wraiths answered. "A dark cloud of sickness has appeared on the border coming from the uncharted lands." "Sickness you say? What kind?" I ask. "One unknown to us. It kills fast once the boils appear on the skin." Answered a goblin. "How does it spread?" I ask. "Though touching and biting." Said another goblin. "How many of you have come in contact with this sickness?" I asked. Over half of them had. "Keep every citizen out of this area! No one gets in without permission from me!" I shout. I jumped into my carriage again. "Back to the castle." I said. /p
