The sacrifices
Spiders are considered poisonous and dangerous by most humans. They are looked upon with fright and disgust. One sting and you have taken the first step into the valley of the dead. While some spiders are deadly, some are not, but they will have the same fate as the one that are lethal in the wrath of a human. They share the same fate.
Fay whistled. It was a beautiful song filled with the most excellent tones. It filled the castle and made everyone in the room filled with wonder. Magic swirls appeared, and the two prisoners in front of Ashura were covered with them. Suddenly they disappeared right in front of Ashuras eyes. The room was silent. Ashura glared at his sword that pointed towards no one. Then he said:
"You tricked me" He turned around and looked at the wizard.
"I did" Fay said looking into his kings eyes.
Then he lifted his hands and bolts of red magic appeared around them. He pointed them towards Ashura. The red magic made impact with the king, and he was thrown backwards landing on his back. The soldiers started to ran towards their king, but Fay threw another jolt of magic towards them. They where thrown backwards as well. Bricks from the walls fell down, and made the whole caste move. Fay looked at Ashura, then lifted his hands once more, and this time Ashura was the one surrounded by the magic swirls. The swirls became ice, and made out the prison witch Ashura was sealed in. Ashura looked once more into Fay's eyes before they closed, lost in a dream that seemed endless.
Then the ice block started moving, magic swirling around it. It flouted in the air before it slowly started descending into the icy cold water of the pool. Fay went into the water as well. His bare back felt numb merely seconds after he had dived into the icy pool. He watched his king land on the pool ground, still with his eyes closed, dreaming.
Fay went out of the water. He looked around. The place looked like a ruin. Big parts of the walls had fallen down, and around them there where bodies. The soldiers where all dead, and lay shattered around the floor of the castle. Fay cried. Tears spilled down his pale skin, his blond locks still wet from the pool water. He cursed the witch. She had only brought pain upon him.
"Fay!" A girl with long blonde hair shouted. She was running towards him over the castle floor. She threw herself in his arms and said in a low whisper: "Chii"
"Chii" Fay said, stroking her gently on the head. "I have to go"
"Chii doesn't understand" Chii said staring into the eyes of her creator. The kind blue eyes warming her heart.
"For you Chii, that's alright" Fay said smiling. "Do you mind of I change you a little?"
"Fay created Chii, so Fay can change Chii how much he want" Chii smiled and hugged Fay again. Feeling his soft skin against hers, she felt a comfort and joy most people never feel. She leaned against him, and his hands held around her, every minute that passed felt like hours.
Then Fay loosened his grip around Chii, and lifted his hands. Chii flouted in mid air, her eyes closed. The magic swirls surrounded her, and made her change form. She was now a seal, covering the pool witch the king, the person that Fay feared the most lay within.
Seresu is filed with magic books. They contain amazing stories about the world's most powerful wizards. They are stories of horror and fear. Of magicians who had used their powers to bring sorrow and pain upon other people. Many wizards that achieve astonishing powers use them to harm other people, and are therefore seen upon with disgust and fear. But not all of them are like that. Not everyone that is granted strong magical powers will use them to harm others and only think of themselves.
