Chapter 5:  Part 2:  The Black Eden!

~~~Temple of Prophecies~~~

                `Through time one shall emerge, un-effected by its awesome power.  Slain twice it shall hunt its former master.  Through the abyss it shall come hunting its former brethren.  The blade shallot be vanquished, but shall return to its true form.  It shall due battle with its master three times before, the blades sister blade appears.  Thought to be lost forever, it shall appear again after 10 millenniums.  One from ancient times shall aid the creature, after being healed by it.  Oh, Soul Reaver, take thy souls of thy enemies.  Oh, Soul Guardian, protect thy souls of thy allies.  Together thou shall banish an ancient evil from the lands.  Peace shall be restored afterward, vampire and human alike shall live in harmony.ยด  "Father Ranz, why do you read those old scrolls?"  "Because, they hold the history of all the nations around, and all the nations of the past.  Now fetch me the scrolls of the Hyldan, Ronz."  "Yes Father Ranz."  He went into the storage room to get the scrolls of the Hyldan when he noticed a new pair of scrolls.  He grabbed them and took them back to the priest and said, "Father Ranz, where did these scrolls come from they look new and they hold a strange symbol on them."  The priest took the scrolls from him and looked at the symbol and paled, saying, "It can't be!  It can't be!"  His apprentice was wondering what was going on asked him, "Father Ranz, what can't be?"  The priest was now shaking and was even paler than before.  "The symbol of the evil one, he is coming."  "Who is the evil one, Father Ranz?"  "The Demon King himself, leader of all that is un-holy, Sauran!  Take the scrolls and run, Ronz!  Run to the far corners of the nations if you most!"  'Thump, thump, thump, thump, crack!'  "He's almost here, he must break three seals in order to gain access.  Now go get all the scrolls you can!  Preferably the ones of prophecies!  Now go I'll hold him off."  Then the 2nd Unspoken One appeared in the room outside of the priest.  "I am the 2nd Unspoken One, leader of the Hyldan!  Surrender or face my wraith!"

~~~Black Eden/ Hyldan Dimension~~~

                "Razel you lead the way into the Black Eden."  "Fine Uncle Raziel, but I won't help you defeat Tural, when we battle him!"  "Shut up nephew and lead the way!" Snapped Raziel, who was now in a serious bad mood.  Vorador said he would wait in the runs of Warlack's palace, until Raziel and Razel returned.  They traveled into the Black Eden and it was more of a barren wasteland than the Dark Eden was.  "Razel what else lies dormant in this wasteland?"  "Rumor had it that somewhere here in the Black Eden, lies a portal to the Hyldan dimension.  They are supposed to be cousins to the Hylden.  They are twice as powerful, twice as dangerous, twice as smart, and twice as ruthless.  It is supposed to be in the heart of the Black Eden, which is where we currently are."  Then a flux appeared in front of them and out came a Hyldan who immediately ran back through the portal.  "How were they stopped last time?"  "They weren't we have a treaty with them that we leave them alone and they leave us alone."  "The Hyldan that had run away came back through the portal and spoke to Razel and Raziel saying, "You two what brings you to the Black Eden?"  Razel was the first to speak and said, "We are here to visit my brother Tural.  This is a friend who as come in seek of information on a certain vampire."  The Hyldan just stood there and then said, "What is this vampires name?"  "His name is Kain, Hyldan!  Now kindly let me pass our feel my wraith!"  The Hyldan just stood there and laughed, then said, "You threaten me, vampire?  Who do you think you are?"  "Simple foul creature, I am Raziel last of the Razielem.  Now let me pass or I will find a way to seal you in your dimension permanently!"  "Our master would like to speak with you, now follow me!"  They followed the Hyldan into the dimension where there were hundreds of Hyldan.  Their master waited at the end of the road and was huge.  He stood taller than any being Raziel had ever seen.  "What do you want with me, foul being?"  The being spoke swiftly, but loudly, saying, "I would hold thy tongue Raziel, I know of you and the one you seek.  He waits for you at the pillars of Nasgoth.  Now leave my home and never return to this plane again, or else it will be your last."  "Don't think you scare me; I have seen the Hylden sealed in their home.  The Hylden weren't a match for a vampire.  Now you threaten me?  Your cousins may have been weaker than thou, but I assure you, you won't leave this plane again!"  With that Raziel started chanting and released his magic and the sealing began.  Razel and Raziel flew for their lives and narrowly escaped in time.  Though in doing so Raziel had accidentally killed the Hyldan master and Raziel had reaved his soul.  Doing so he gained the power to teleport to any plane he chose to, except for the Hylden plane, which was sealed long ago.  "Now let us resume our journey to Tural's palace.  I'm warning you cross me and you won't live to tell about it."  "Yes Raziel, I'll keep that in mind.  Now lets go, Tural is one of the weaker brothers."
