Legends Of Elysium
Summary
"Hay! Come back here, you crazy flying sword." Fidget yelled, as she flapped her small wings as fast as they could go. After a few more minutes the sword halted in midair, Fidget ended up flying past the sword in her haste.
Here We Go Again
"Ahrah? Why did you stop? Come on." I asked, as I tried to pull the sword, but it was to heavy for my small paws.
"Did Dust summon you again? Or is it someone else with the same twin souls?" I asked, as we approached the familiar glade.
The figure looked like Dust at first, but when they lifted their head from under the Satgat, I saw sky blu eyes instead of the pale blue that Dust had.
"Hay, who are you? Are you related to Dust?" I asked, as the figure looked up at me with confused eyes. 'Oh great, fantastic, is this another person with memory problems to?' I thought in dismay, as the sword finally spoke.
"It may appear that the souls of Jin and Cassius have been tampered with. Fidget, I'm not certain but... this might be Dust, Jin, or even a different person entirely." Ahrah spoke calmly, as the figure finally spoke.
"Wha... A talking sword? What are you? A-and how can you talk?" I blinked at the rapid fire of questions.
"I am the Blade of Ahrah, and you seam familiar, but you are also different. Do you remember your name?" The sword asked.
"M-My name is Tempest. And, who is she?" The blue fox asked, with a tilt of her head. I gave a sigh as I replied.
"Me? I'm Fidget! Guardian of this sword!" I said, as I lowered my ears.
"No offense, but aren't you a bit... well, small? For a guardian, I mean?" She said, as I gave a pout.
"Hay, I just look after that thing! After two-hundred years, nobody expects a sword to just fly off and start, you know, talking." I exclaimed, throwing my paws in the air in frustration.
"So... Fidget, then?" Tempest asked, as I replied with a fond smile.
"That's me! And you're Tempest?" I said, I have a feeling I know what's coming.
"It would seam that way, though I can't recall that name." She said softly. I blinked in surprise. But before I could speak, the blue fox spoke up again.
"So... what is this sword?" I tried not to react at that familiar sentence and question.
"I am The Blade of Ahrah, and you Tempest, are my next fated sword-bearer." I winced, I knew, that for as wise as the sword may be, even he is unsure. I grinned, now I could speak.
"Yes, well that's all great and everything, but I think it's about time I got this sword back to the clan." I say, repeating the same words that I had told Dust when we first met.
"I can't let you just leave with this sword, Fidget. Right now, it's the only thing that knows who I am. I don't even know how I got here..." Tempest says, staring up at me through the Satgat. I just sighed and rolled my eyes playfully at her.
"Hmph! Well, then you leave me no choice. I... I challenge you! The winner gets the sword!" I playfully retorted, snicking quietly under my breath at the shocked look on Tempest's face.
"Well, I-" She trialed off, not know who to respond to my statement.
"Alright, alright! You win! But don't think I'm leaving empty-handed! I'm coming with you!" I say, and I hear Ahrah give what I assumed to be an exasperated sigh.
"But, um... I really do need the sword back when you're done doing... you know, whatever it is you're doing." I continued, tilting my head to the side as I stared at Tempest with a raised eyebrow.
"What exactly AM I doing, Ahrah?" Tempest asked the sword, who gave a soft sigh before answering.
"The answers you seek lie to the east. There is a path through the glade that leads down the mountainside, and from there you will find a village. That is your first step." The sword replied, and Tempest nodded her head in understanding.
"THEN will you give me the sword? I really need to get it back home before anyone notices it's gone!" I spoke after a few moments of awkward silence.
"When I find out just what it is I'm supposed to do with it, it's all yours, Fidget. C'mon, let's go." Tempest says, and I speak up before we get going.
"Wait, hold up a sec. You told us your name, but why did you act like you couldn't recall that name?" I asked in confusion, as the warmblood rolled her eyes.
"Look, Fidget, I said my name was Tempest, but I never said that was my real name, now did I? Tempest is the first name that popped into my head." The Fox Warmblood gave a sigh, and Ahrah spoke up once more.
"So... Tempest is not you're real name? I assume that means that you don't remember you're name. Am I correct?" The sword asked, as Tempest nodded.
"So... now what? Do we do the same thing as last time?" I asked, and Ahrah spoke.
"Not exactly Fidget, first, we must figure out who Tempest is. Someone may have messed with the life-thread, and that... has dangerous consequences." The blade said, and I gave a sad sigh.
"Hay, I know, Ginger might be able to help us. Let's go see her, she might recognize you. Maybe?" I replied eagerly, as we once again headed to Aurora Village.
