Alexzander stood back from the statue as RD's flame quickly engulfed the whole statue with his flames, Elena and Isabel watched as the stood still "Elena it's moving?" Isabel points at the statue. The large human statue kneels down towards the Royal Swords mold, the statue shoved it's hands down in the waters connected near the other molds, the air suddenly became quite confused Alexzander looks around, wondering why the cold winds was suddenly became so quiet.
"Alex-" Elena was about to say something till a large beam of light broke through the sky, it head towards the large statue engulfing the statue with light. Alexzander shielded his eyes from the light while his body helped Elena and Isabel to not get hit, Elena reached out trying to get to Alexzander while holding onto Isabel, Elena felt Alexzander's back by the time she touched him the light quickly disappeared. Confused Elena looks over Alexzander's side to see what had happened, the statue was still kneeling but was holding something up towards them with both its hands, Amir flew down to where Elena and Isabel stood he to felt something different, as if another presence was near by. Walking over to the statue Alexzander slowly reached out towards the Royal Sword, the Royal Sword was completely new as the gem of the Spirits Divines eye wasn't at all harmed at the hilt, "Amir..., Elena..., get ready cause if something happens don't hesitate...," Alexzander says this while looking back at them.
"You can't just!" Elena was about to protest but Amir placed a hand on Elena's shoulder, "Elena he's not wrong I've never seen the Royal Sword to it's original power in all my 500 years of life, it's now or never there's not time for hesitation for this will be our one and only chance...," Amir says as he held up a shield to protect them. Amir nods towards Alexzander telling him to go ahead, Alexzander nods before taking a deep breath taking the Royal Sword in hand, the statue crumbles into rubble Delegant leans away along with RD, Alexzander held the Royal Sword towards his face while the blade was facing him.
Before Alexzander could do anything his whole body engulfed into a hue of light, small hands of light reached towards him from the sword, it was like the time Elena had saw in the bed when she had noticed when they were in bed together. Elena then heard a male's voice she looks around to see where it was coming from, till she heard a mix of female voices as well like they were whispering Elena looks to Alexzander. She noticed his eyes were glowing blue along with his body glowing white, the light slowly rise towards the sky Elena watched as Alexzander body kneels down, he had flipped the sword's blade into the ground as if he was kneeling towards someone, confused Elena watched as a woman's body formed in front of him. Elena didn't know who this being was as it's hair flew in the wind along with the clothing around it, the woman smiles and out reaches her arms towards Elena, Elena slowly walks out towards the being as if her body was moving on its own. Amir tried to stop Elena but his shield was useless when Elena walked through, as a other world power allowed Elena to walk through iElena stopped when she was behind Alexzander.
"Who are you?" Elena asked "are you... Fate?, the Divines arms then wrapped around Elena holding her close it gave off a motherly warmth, Elena closed her eyes when she felt this till she heard the Divine's a mix of male and female voice.
"The time has come Fate's path has been set Elena I in believe you, and the Divines are at you're call for we know you'll win against Fate's outcome," with this the Divine spirit slowly left before giving a kiss on Elena's forehead, Elena watched as the Divine spirit left Elena then turns to Alexzander, he wasn't moving from his spot Elena quickly kneels next to Alexzander. She placed a hand on his back while telling him to wake up from his trancelike state, Alexzander blinks before turning back to normal "what happened?" Alexzander looks to Elena who smiles, "the Divine Spirit came..., Fate's path has been put into motion...," Elena calmly says.
Isabel watched in worry remembering Queen Victoria's book she had found, Isabel remembered some of the notes saying Alexzander harming everyone he loved and destroy the lives of those around him. It was something Isabel didn't want to happen, Isabel looks to Amir to see how he is feeling his face was blank he had no emotions right now, far from his normal I don't care face Isabel grips at Amir's sleeve causing Amir to look at Isabel.
"Does that mean Alexzander will become what the future says?" Isabel asked with worry, Amir whole body tighten when he heard this "not while I'm here..." Amir says as he walks over to Elena and Alexzander, "we must hurry the others need us" Amir quickly transform into a large owl.

"hold the line!" Conner yells towards a group of Herviana's taking arrow fire, "LIarm where is the cannon fire coming from!" Conner yells towards the trees, "on the other side of the island Mylene is taking care of it, I'll join her while Gabe and Sam deal with three of Ethel's men," LIarm says as he hops into view of Conner he stood on a tree ledge Conner nods agreeing with LIarm. LIarm takes his bow and arrow off his back and heading towards Ethel's ships, shooting at the dead crew men that came after him. Swing on each tree ledge then hopping down towards the beach sore, LIarm aimed at some gunpowder barrels that were sitting on the ships deck's, the arrow whistled towards a lantern that one of Ethel crewmen were holding, hitting it caused a small spark to hit the gunpowder an making a loud explosion to erupt from the ship.
Mylene turns to see where this explosion came from smiling when seeing LIarm was the one who did it, she then ducked where she was standing as Ethel's whip nearly toke off her head.
"You and your stupid friends!, Mylene you have ruined everything!, why do I get punished even tho I'm helping our people!" Ethel yells as he hits the ship's railing destroying it.
"Causing mass murder isn't something to good for our people!, Ethel I understand your in pain for what they did, but please listen to me you have to reconsider all this!, I know you can do better you always have..." Mylene jumped in the air when Ethel's whip hit the ground near her feet.
"Like hell I'll listen to you!, to me your dead no matter what you say!, do better I've always been doing better for everyone!," Ethel lunged towards Mylene in anger, "I'm finding a new Ceasg for us to break the curse, and Amir had found a way to fix the soil here he just needs a way to spread it, Ethel your dream of coming home will be true just listen to me please!" Mylene droves out the way when Ethel's whip landed on the ship's deck, causing it to crumble under the pressure of the whip's attack Ethel then yells in frustration.
"Ha!, please so what if you do?, then what do you really think the Canesseians will listen?, they never do!" Ethel the grappled Mylene by the leg when she try to move out of the way again, he then flings her towards the main sail of the ship, Mylene hits her back with force taking the wind out of her.
"You believe I can be good?, that what I'm doing is wrong when have you decide that's true?, when do you decide what's best for me!..., you know I wonder when your so called 'brother' returns?, he'll just leave you like he did before?" Ethel held up his whip to strike Mylene.
"Not by a long shot!" Alexzander yells down at Ethel, They had just came in the nick of time to for the fight Alexzander hops down from RD to the ship's deck, Alexzander held up the Royal Sword at Ethel readying himself for a fight. Ethel quickly attacked Alexzander who had gotten hit in the back, when he tried to move out of the was hurt but still willing to fight.
LIarm as so appeared landing on the ships railing he kneels down aiming a arrow at Ethel, Elena hopped down as well from RD who flew away so Isabel wouldn't get hurt, Elena stood next to Alexzander holding her scepter at Ethel. Ethel glares at the two Royals in anger till he looks to the shore line of the Herviana's Island, Gabe and Sam was there along with Conner an Herviana's Islanders, they were all ready for a fight Ethel in anger yells out to Sam, "your Grandmother has been looking for you, if she sees you this way you know full well she'll disown you?" Ethel smiles as Sam tense up. Gabe looks tonSam confused "your a Criminal just like your parents and Grandmother and you'll think she'll let this slide?" Ethel looks to Gabe smirking when seeing he had his guard down.
"To be in prison for the rest of your life on attempting murder?, locked away while everyone around you will leave you behind just like your parents did to you," Ethel watched as Sam's hands lowered down shaking in fear. Gabe was surprised that Sam was giving up so easily, "Sam you okay?" Gabe reached out towards Sam who swatted his hand away.
"That's it..." Ethel whispers, he then takes a few steps near a barrel that had gunpowder inside, "you don't think she didn't tell me what you did to-" Ethel was about to say something again, till Sam shot a bolt of magic at Ethel in anger not letting him finish what he had to say, Ethel quickly takes the gunpowder barrel flinging it at Sam's attack. Alexzander quickly shielded Elena from the explosion Mylene ran for cover along with LIarm, the ship rocked hard from the blast of gunpowder that was set off, they waited till the smoke settled before they all looked around to see it was safe. Elena looks over to the shoreline she could see Sam was on the ground, Conner had her arms behind her back while Gabe was trying to ease the situation over there, Alexzander looks to Elena both were both on the deck floor seeing that something was wrong with Sam. Alexzander and Elena stood up while Mylene and LIarm walk over to them, they could see that Ethel had ran away along with two of his ships, it may have happened when they were fighting.
"Now what?" Mylene asked looking around in confusion. Confused why Ethel even try to attack but to leave out of blue with no reason.

Cullen walked up the Divine Temple stairs that was set in the Canesse's main city, Cullen had hidden himself among the crowed changing his look to common among the people, he stopped near the main doors entrance he looked to see which Divine it was, seeing images of plants and animals he tell it was the Divine of Nature. He huffed when seeing such thing in irritation remember the Divine stopping him, during the dream state he was in trying to control Alexzander's mind, but now he had a chance to use the one thing Alexzander hold dear to him his mother's soul. All he needed was to use the Divine item of Nature the leaves of Life, using the leaves powers to slip pass the dream barrier that the Divine of Nature put up, Cullen bows towards the priestesses who were dressed in clothing of nuns with flowers and animal bead around their necks. Hiding himself into the church Cullen turned himself into a priest when walking into a hidden hallway, walking past nuns and priest along the way he then stopped when he saw a locked door, seeing some holy items placed near the door as offerings he was at the right place.
"Let's see how well they locked this place?" Cullen takes his hand placing it on the locked door, he watched as the images on the door turns and change, he could hear clicks and springs unlocking. He smiles when the door opens for him to walk in as he set foot in the room and closing it behind him, he then locked it back not wanting to cause suspension towards the door, Cullen walks down a small flight of stairs in the middle of the room, in a tray was the leaves of life Cullen walks over to see how many was there, seeing that there was only two leaves left he looks up to see the Divine statue of nature. He scoffs when seeing the statue of the Divine Nature, "you have the power to create life but some how you can not bring back life..., a false Divine is all I can see on who you are being I prayed to you begging you, all I was asking for was King Kritis's life but you have wronged all of the Divines have wronged me..." Cullen grips his hands in anger.
"Even if it means causing this world to go into a war then so be it, I'll show everyone how I suffered and maybe then they'll see King Kritis is the right man to call upon," Cullen reaches over towards the leaves of life grabbing both the two leaves.
Far into the shadows a human figure like blob of black ooze emerged from the flooring, standing there was Ethel pissed and in a ruff shape.
"You owe me for what I did!" Ethel yells pointing at Cullen who didn't look from the two magical leaves he was holding, "I do don't I?" Cullen raised an eyebrow at Ethel who huffed in anger, "I was this close of getting my way a simple of showing what the Canesseians had done, and the Hervianas would be on my side but if you say you're way is better, it better hope by what ever you worship that it does go my way," Ethel glares at Cullen who rolled his eyes.
"Anyways why do you want me to get Sam emotional anyways?, she can't do anything to powerful or it will cause her to get to sick?" Ethel watched as Cullen turn back to his original from, "Sam has a problem of keeping her feelings in and that will effect the group she's in right now, she can take and reuse magic or things around her but she could never make her own, they don't know the reason why even Sam doesn't know," Cullen walks over towards Ethel who was leaning on a pillar.
"So your saying that they'll destroy themselves on the inside before they even try to stop us?, then what about Amir?, he's with them right now?" Ethel leans off the pillar that he was leaning on.
"Now that's is a problem, well just have to be fast on what we are doing before Amir figures out what we are doing, plus I'll finally get the chance of seeing Amir's full power for my own use?" Cullen smirks before fading into the shadows. Ethel rolls his eyes before walking to where Cullen walked, and he to faded into the shadows.

The Herviana's Islands were getting ready for the next day to find th Ceasg, right now Alexzander was sitting on a Herviana house porch watching dawn come, Elena was standing behind Alexzander she was inside the house, till she noticed Alexzander sitting outside on the porch, Elena could tell something was bothering him. Walking over Elena placed hand on Alexzander's back causing him to flinch in pain, "sorry!, I forgot that you were still wounded by Ethel's whip...," Elena tried to sooth Alexzander but he just takes Elena's hand from his back, "it's fine..." Alexzander looks to Elena who stood close to Alexzander for comfort.
"I'm sorry..." Alexzander looks to Elena who raised an eyebrow at Alexzander, "for?, look Alexzander there's no need of saying anything what I did was for us and everyone with us, I promised you that I'll stop Fate's path for you and I really mean it, telling me if something happens to you right before Fate's path was even finished, is saying I'm gave up or your not so sure everyone here is really right to help you?" Elena takes Alexzander's face into her hands.
"We'll stop Cullen we'll help the five Kingdoms, and I'll be here with you every step of the way with anything political if it gets to hard for you," Elena smiles as pulls Alexzander closer towards her placing his head on her shoulder, while she gave him a hug "just remember everything your standing for and I'll help you remember that...," Elena whispers as she felt Alexzander's arms wrapped around her, Elena's small frame was very different compared to Alexzander's larger frame, as if he was hiding her from the world around them.
Alexzander let's Elena go so he could regain his thinking from all this mess that happened today, Elena fixed Alexzander's long blond curly hair that was stuck into her flowers that sat in her hair, she chuckles when this happened seeing that Alexzander was very keen on his hair. Slowly Alexzander set his forehead against Elena's, the two stayed that way till the final light of the sun slowly disappeared over the horizon, leaving them there into the now night sky.
