The Silver and Web Series

Episode 29: There's More To Learn


Silver was enjoying the warm summer breeze when he heard a familiar voice call out, "Hey, Silver!" He looked ahead to see Tails running over to him. "What's up?" he asked.

"I have something to tell you!" Tails replied, "…Actually, I have several things to tell you. Follow me!" He turned around and began to lead Silver forward.

A little later, the two of them arrived at the entrance to the Forest of Wonders. "Here we are-the Forest of Wonders," Tails said as they came near the white heart-shaped gate and it opened on its own, "I asked Leagon to tell you some more about Capia." Both of them stopped and turned to look at the gate after passing through it, seeing it close by itself. "By the way, you're probably wondering about that gate. I'll let Leagon tell you about that too; she could explain it better than I can."

Tails and Silver soon met Leagon inside the cave where she lived. "I've been waiting for you, Silver," she said, "There are some more things you must know about Capia as you continue on your adventures. Let me begin."

"First, Capia has four leaders. That may seem confusing, but each one has a different purpose. The greatest leader of Capia is Capen, a mysterious and wise being who lives not in Capia but in a unique area of space called the Teleporter. Even so, she can keep track of the planet and communicate with its other leaders in order to protect it. She has the ability to teleport herself and others anywhere instantly. The king and queen live in the Capian Palace and rule the land. Since they have no special powers, they mainly take care of more minor issues, but they do also help to protect the planet when needed. Lelenar also lives in the Capian Palace; her job is to keep watch over the Magic Jewels and to watch out for any danger to Capia. She is usually the first one to respond to threats to the planet."

"Another important Capian native is the mysterious creature Lightial. He is the most powerful in all of Capia; in fact, his power is so great that he must spend most of his time in the sacred place known as Eternal Mountain to keep it under control. But, as the ultimate guardian of Capia, he can be called out in times of trouble to save the world. And then there's Lenarok, hiding in his lair. He is evil and an enemy to Lelenar. His goal is to become leader of Capia so he can take it over! Tails told me you saw Lenarok recently. You must be careful and keep an eye out for him; he is dangerous!"

"Leagon is right!" Tails told Silver, "I didn't tell you before because I didn't want to worry you while you were recovering. I've fought Lenarok before, and he's one tough opponent!"

"There's one thing I don't understand," Leagon said, "Why is Lenarok going after you?"

"Don't worry about it," Silver replied, "My friends and I should be able to figure it out. We'll be sure to keep an eye out for Lenarok."

Leagon smiled. "Yes, I know you can do it. Also, about that gate at the entrance to this forest…it has the magical ability to see into the hearts of those who come near it. To those with good intentions it will open by itself, but to those with ill intentions it will remain closed with a completely unbreakable force."

"Wow, this really is a magical place!" Silver said, "One more thing before we go. Leagon, have you heard of the names 'Mystery' and 'Miracle'?"

Leagon looked down in thought. "Hmm…Mystery and Miracle…where have I heard those names before?" She looked up again. "I'm sorry. Those names sound familiar, but I can't remember who they are at this time."

"That's okay. Thanks for all your help." As he turned and began to walk away with Tails, Silver was glad that he had learned some more about Capia, even if there was no answer about Mystery and Miracle yet.

"Who are Mystery and Miracle, Silver?" Tails asked as the two of them approached the gate and it opened again.

"They're two creatures I've been seeing at times since the Events. Mystery has been fighting me and Miracle has been helping me. I don't know much about them myself, but I'm sure I'll learn more eventually."

Meanwhile in his lair, Lenarok was pushing a button on a machine. "It's finally time to awaken Mystery!" he smiled evilly.

Inside the nearby capsule, the mysterious liquid surrounding the unconscious Mystery drained. "What? Did I really fail again?" he opened his eyes.

"Unfortunately, yes," Lenarok replied, "I made several attempts at weakening Silver myself, but every time one of his friends got in the way!"

After being freed from the capsule, Mystery surrounded himself in purple light. "Hmph, we won't need to worry about that much longer. I'm stronger than ever before, and I have new plans! Now is the time to act!" He flew into the air and vanished, leaving Lenarok watching where he had been, wondering what exactly he meant.
