Welcome back to The New Age of Heroes. This chapter will be about Isalus and Nickolaes getting Souls in the Underworld. Enjoy.
He left the Realm of his Soul, and came back to his cave. He walked to Athena's Library and collected some maps, then to Apollo's Armory and took his Solar Bow, with its 19 strings like a harp,shots a certain amount of flaming arrows depending on the number of the strings plucked, and the Inferno Sword that sets enemies on fire.
He went to the Underworld, where Nickolaes, son of Persephone and Hades, lives. He got to the River Styx and Charon let him cross to Hades's Temple, where Nickolaes was crying over his parents' bodies.
Isalus said, "What happened?"
"Chaos wiped them out and said, 'You and Isalus will die.'"
"Wow. Let me help you." He took Hades and Persephone's Souls and shared them with Nickolaes.
"Thank you."
"I need your help."
"I know. Let me se your map, specifically here."
"Sure."
Nickolaes unrolled the map and marked 4 places: Elysium, Isles of the Blessed, Tartarus and Persephone's Garden.
Nickolaes said, "My father kept watch over the entire Underworld, and he told me that the King of the Winds, Aeolus, was wiped out at Elysium; Dionysus and Hephaestus were killed at the entrance to Tartarus; Demeter and pan were at my mother's garden, and Hermes was at the Isles of the Blessed."
"That could do wonders. Thanks for helping."
"We will succeed no matter what Chaos says. Just let me get my father's scythes."
A few minutes later, he got 2 scythes: a crimson-and-black colored one with a black chain wrapped around it, and another red-and-black scythe with blades coming out of the end and a broken chain on the end of the shaft.
Nickolaes said, "Let's head off to the Garden."
They walked to the back of the palace and saw the somewhat-dead plants that Persephone once grew. In the middle was Demeter's took her Soul and he was in his Soul Realm, and she said, "Son of Apollo and Athena, it is crucial that you defeat Chaos, and please tell Persephone that I am sorry for complaining about her marriage."
He came back to the garden, told Nickolaes what Demeter said, and grew a pomegranate plant. Then Nickolaes grew ivy around it that said In memory of Hades and Persephone, Rulers of the Underworld.
Isalus said, "Off to Tartarus."
"Hold on, let' get a couple of hellhounds." They went inside the palace to the Hellhound Chamber and got 2 hellhounds named Psyche and Eros.
They rode to the entranceof Tartarus and collected the Souls of Dionysus and Hephaestus.
Inside his Soul Realm, Dionysus told him that he could intoxicate his enemies, while Hephaestus gave him the ability to craft anything.
After that, he became woozy and heard a voice that said, "The Titans shall help. Come to me inside Tartarus."
"Nickolaes, things will be different now."
"Why?"
"The Titans."
They walked into the prison of the Titans and took in the Souls of Hyperion, Helion, Gaia and Atlas.
"I feel stronger."
"It is amazing. Now let's ride to Elysium."
Before they left, inside the Soul Realm, Hephaestus said, "Please get the Scythe on my body. It will be useful."
Back in Tartarus, he rose back to the entrance and found the same red-and-black scythe with a broken chain. Isalus crafted an anvil and connected the broken chains.
"Now it is complete. Do you want them?"
"No, I shall hang onto the Punishment of the Cursed God."
"Thanks. I shall name them the Helios Reapers. Now we can go to Elysium."
They rode to the River Styx and had Charon row to the Sanctuary of the Good Souls, and found the body of Aeolus. He took in the Soul and felt the Winds move through his body.
Then he said, "Something evil is at the Isles of the Blessed."
"Chaos?"
"No. It's big, scaly nad terrifying."
"I think I know what it is. My father kept track of what came into Tartarus. It is the Lydian drakon."
"Then let's defeat it."
They rode further into the Isles of the Blessed. They found the body of Hermes, God of Travel, Merchants and Theives, but in front of it was the Lydian drakon, a giant serpent with gigantic claws and scales more powerful than the Neman Lion's armor.
Using the power of the winds, Isalus glided to its face and shot arrows into the snout, but they bounced off. So he threw the Winds at Nickolaes, gained them and flew to the drakon.
Nickolaes used the special ability of the Punishment of the Cursed God to manipulate souls of the dead to hold the drakon and have Isalus shoot into its eyes. He then threw the scythe into its mouth and it turned into dust, leaving its armor.
Isalus said, "Finally, let's get this Soul."
He took Hermes' Soul and gained the speed of Olympus.
,it would be a good idea to use the drakon's armor for ourselves."
Using its claw, he made the drakon's armor into 2 sets of armor.
Nickolaes said, "Do you mind if you share some Souls with me?"
"Of course, sorry for being selfish. Which ones would you like?"
"Hermes, Gaia, Atlas, and Aeolus."
He put his hand on Nickloaes, and Nickolaes gained the powers of sped, earth, greater strength and the winds.
Isalus said, "I thought you said Pan was at Persephone's Garden."
"Oh, he was in a tree."
"Ah. Then let's get him."
They rode the hellhounds back to the garden, and Isalus made the plants, except Hades and Persephone's memorial, wither and found the body of a satyr.
He took Pan's Soul and gained control of thw Wild.
"Let's look for the other gods."
They got out of the Underworld, and saw the disastrous over world,with the Typhon Mountains, Mount Olympus, the War Stadium Triton Sea, and Hunter Forest.
Isalus told Nickolaes that they must get to Ares, so they quickly ran to the War Stadium.
There you go, Isalus and Nickolaes gained the asouls of Hade3s, Persephone, Demeter, Dionysus, Hephaestus, Hermes, Aeolus, Gaia, Helios, Hyperion, and Atlas. Stay tuned for Part 3-The War Stadium, where they meet a new partner, the God of War and a little surprise.
