Chapter 2 : Undesirable Memory
Asgard opened in his eyes as he traveled into the unknown. Ever since he opened the Scroll, his consciousness darkens and sink deeper to sleep. But he manage to hold on, only because of someone is holding his hand. A familiar hand that somehow warmth his soul.
He could feel that their destination is near. Among the things he sense is the cry of a young woman. Her heart beats rapidly cause of great stress.
Asgard remembered his wife, Ysolda, has the same response, like the stranger, to life threatening situations. He could only frown at such memory, he thought he buried long time ago.
Even though he had his revenge on Ysolda's killer, Asgard is still having nightmares, and cursing his own powerlessness.
Asgard reached to the end of this travel and his body materialized on that place.
The unknown monster trace her scent and tracked her down. Sparing no effort, launches itself to devour the young woman.
Immediately, Asgard, as soon he felt the ground with his very feet, extended his shield to protect her.
BOOM!
A large shockwave that vibrates the room, the monster bounced off Asgard's Ebony Dragonbone Shield. It's shadowy head tilted in confusion as why this mortal managed to defend and toss him back.
Casting a healing spell over the wounded body, the young woman was safe from serious harm but still need medical attention.
Asgard stare sharply at the Shadow Monster, he was furious as this monster made him remember that awful time. He swore in his heart, he will crush this monster to dust.
The first move made was the shadow monster, dashing through the darkness as it was its territory.
But to its astonishment, Asgard casts Candlelight and it gives a warm light. It prevents it from charging ahead.
Asgard charged his magic on the palm of his hands. A raging flame like the one in his own heart, furious and deadly. The creature sensed that his next move would be dangerous.
In no time, Asgard unleashes a Master Level spell, Fire Storm that fills this whole room with hot burning fire. The creature cannot react in time and was burned to dust.
After confirming it's death, Asgard deeply sighs. He mocked himself that he was flustered at that moment and act like an angry child.
"I still have a lot to learn."
Materializing with him was Serana who somehow vomit. She was nauseous during the trip.
"What in Oblivion is that! Urph!"
Serana vomit rainbows.
Asgard chuckled. He administer to the young woman basic first aid, cleaning her wounds, put medicine and wrap it with a clean gauze.
"Why dont you cast a healing spell on her?"
Serana asks holding her head, she was still dizzy during the trip.
"She will subject to shock. Ived seen a lot of young people going insane waking up like nothing happened. Sometimes, pain keep us alive."
"Well, your call."
Finishing the final bandage, Asgard carried the young woman on his arms. Seranas crimson eyes glowed in the dark.
"Asgard."
"I know. Lets get out of here."
Seranas crimson eyes detected a swarm of hostile enemies rushing in their direction, they will be overrun if they dont leave now. Of course, they had an option to stay and fight, but considering the injured girl, they had no choice but to run.
"Well, after this lets figure out where that dang Elder Scroll take us."
"Sure."
Asgard smiled.
