Sara Adnade, after learning of the pure magic coming toward them; she gets an idea of how to take care of it all by her self. Even those the others try to talk her out of it. She doesn't listen. Her stubborn side shows. As she asks her friend the half-elf name arche to take her up to the castle town so Sara can make a barrier to save all those inside the castle walls.
Arche Klaine, says she will take Sara up to the castle tower. Even those cless tries to talk arche out of the idea. But arche says she will do it. After getting to the castle tower. Sara tells arche to head back inside as soon as she can. Arche does so. But soon after arche renters the castle. She learns why she was told to get back inside as soon as she can. Sara made it so no one can leave the castle; as well as she casted silent so no other person or elf can help her with the barrier.
Klarth F. Lester, watches as after Sara casts the barrier over the castle. She had trouble holding it all alone. But with the magic of silent over the castle the others can only watch as Sara slowly loses the battle. But to klarth's surprise.

Chapter 21: One of Judgement
The other inside of the castle; stood in shock at the screen. "S-Sara!" cless yelled watching her off from the castle on the screen. The screen picture then when out. "She passed out…from all the energy she had to…use with the summon spirits…" Rune glom said looking toward Cless. "W-wait she falling and doesn't even know it?" Arche yelled. Rune glom slowly nodded to the half-elf.
"The barrier around the castle should be gone now…" klarth said looking toward Cless and Arche. Cless quickly nodded. "Arche, let's go!" cless yelled. Arche nodded back to cless and hopped into her broom stick. "cless hop on!" arche said pointing to the back of the broom. He did so; then they both quickly fled out of the room. Klarth nodded watching the two.
"I hope they can make it to the sage in time…" the king whispered sounding worried. Rune glom slowly nodded to the king. "Do not worry sir, they will…" Rune glom slowly closing his eyes; He only hopped he was right.

"Hurry arche!" cless yelled kneeing on the back of the broom. "I am!" Arche yelled flying out of the front door. The barrier around the castle really was gone now. Was it because she was knocked out? Or did the barrier disappear when she put all her energy into the attack on the pure magic? Cless didn't know. And right then. He didn't really care! He just wanted to save her. But he still knew she was foolish to do it all alone by her self.
Arche quickly started to fly the broomstick up toward the tower. But around the castle was starting to shake like crazy. "Wha-what's happening?" Cless yelled to arche. "I-I don't know!" Arche yelled closing one eye from the high winds around them. "C-can you see her at all?" cless asked. "No! I can't so far!" Arche yelled back to him. Was the wind too strong for arche to even control her broom stick let alone see where they were going?
Arche didn't know but so far she was having trouble. She could feel the broom stick shaking under her. She was having trouble holding it. But she quickly blinked seeing something falling toward them. "Cless look!" Arche yelled pointing toward the thing falling. Cless held a hand to his forehead trying to see what arche was pointing too. Cless quickly blinked out of surprise. "Is that…?" cless whispered.
Arche nodded to him placing her hand back into holding the broom stick. "Yes, that has to be her…be ready to catch her!" arche yelled quickly making her way toward Sara's falling body. "Right!" cless yelled holding his arms out ready to catch her. Then they watched her body quickly fall toward them. "Get ready…!" arche yelled to him as Sara's body came closer and closer. "Right!" cless yelled as her body fell into his arms; he did his best not to drop her.
"I got her arche!" he yelled to the pink hair girl. "Alright…! Hold on to her! Going down will be as hard as going up was!" arche yelled quickly making her way down the castle tower. She was fighting the wind again. Was the wind acting up so much because of the pure magic attack on the castle? That had to be the reason…what other reason could there be? The closer to the ground arche got the stronger the wind around them became.
Arche could feel the broomstick shaking under her again. But she had to keep control of it. Or all three of them would be in real trouble. She could see the castle front door. They we're so close now. She just had to hold on a bit longer then they would be alright. She had to keep going! "Just a bit more…! Cless hold into her tight…! This will not be easy!" Arche yelled back to the swordsman. "Alright…!" cless yelled back to arche. "We are going to gun for it!" Arche yelled quickly flying toward the front door.
But as they got close to the door; the strong wind stopped. "w-what!" Arche yelled as they headed the door too quickly. "Ahhhh!" Arche yelled losing her hold on the broomstick. "Arche!" cless yelled as he fell off the broomstick. They both landed safely inside the castle. Cless quickly glared toward her. "Hey! It isn't my fault the wind slow down that quickly!" arche yelled waving her arms toward him. Cless sighed a bit knowing she was right. It wasn't her fault. But why did the wind slow down that quickly? He wondered.
Arche quickly snapped out of it. "Hey! Is Sara alright?" arche asked sounding a bit worried. Cless quickly snapped out of his thoughts. He forgot all about her. He quickly looked down at his hands. Yep, she looked alright just still passed out. Cless slowly nodded, "yeah, I think she's alright Arche…" he whispered to the pink hair girl. Arche slowly let out a sigh. She was glad she was alright. As arche and cless got to they're feet; klarth and Rune glom ran up to them. "Good you're all right…" Rune glom said looking a bit worried toward them.
Klarth nodded. "Yes…" cless whispered holding the passed out sage in his arms. Rune glom looked down toward her. A soft smile slowly appeared on his face. He was glad she was alright. Maybe she would be the sage to out live all the others. Well he could only hope it to be that way. The king quickly ran over to them. "Rune glom what do you think your doing!" The king yelled toward Rune glom. "S-Sir…?" Rune glom said looking a bit lost. "Take them to the guess room where the sage may rest!" The king yelled looking pretty angry. Rune glom bowed to the king. "Y-Yes…sir! This way please…" rune glom quickly started down the hallway.
The king let out a sigh. "To think an elf his age…looking at a teenager that way…" the king whispered shaking his head. "Did you say something sir…?" Klarth asked. "N-no I didn't please follow Rune glom to the guess room for the sage to rest in…" klarth nodded to the king. They watched the king quickly walk away from them. "Well we should hurry about Rune glom…" Klarth whispered to arche and cless. "Yeah…" arche said as the three quickly hurried after Rune glom.
They follow Rune glom down the hallway a bit. They followed him down some stairs then a hallway a bit west of the king's room. Then Rune glom stop in front of a doorway. "This is the guess room…" Rune glom said as he opened the door. The three slowly entered the room and rune glom followed them inside. Cless quickly placed Sara on one of the beds in the room. "She will be alright…she just passed out because of how much energy she put out stopping the pure magic…" Rune glom told them.
"I thought as much…" klarth said as he closed his eyes. Rune glom slowly nodded to him. "She will be alright in time…" cless quickly shook his head hearing this. "Time…one thing we don't have…" cless whispered looking up from the bed. "Yeah…" arche whispered back to cless. "Yes…I can only guess…what is happening now, could be that bad…but they're nothing we can do right now…besides waiting…" rune glom pointed out. They all knew Rune glom was right. He was a wise elf after all.
"I'm sure you're all tired after all…I mean right after you stopped efreet the castle was under attack. So why don't you all rest a bit? Then I'm sure Naru will be up as well…" klarth slowly opened his eyes looking toward Rune glom. "Yes…that a good idea…we should all rest a bit…" klarth said walking over to one of the beds. Cless and arche nodded toward each other. "Don't worry I'll be right outside the door if something happens just call me…" rune glom said bowing toward the group.
Cless slowly smiled. "Thank you, rune glom…" cless whispered to him. He quickly shook his head. "Think nothing of it, after all you and your friends have done so much for us…" rune glom whispered with a soft smile across his face. He then turned around and left the room closing the door behind him. "Lady…naru…" he whispered to him self closing his eyes. "Please be alright…" Rune glom finished whispering to him self.
Soon after that the group quickly fell asleep in the beds in the guest room. They were all very tired. They really did need the rest really badly. But little did they know the sleep they had found would not be they're very long. An hour after they fell asleep the castle started to shake. All three of them quickly awoke up. "What the hell?" klarth cried as he quickly sat up. Then cless and arche quickly sat up on they're beds as well.
"W-why is the castle shaking like this!" arche yelled looking around the room. "Rune glom!" cless yelled toward the door. Rune glom quickly ran inside. "Yes?" he asked looking worried. "What in the world is going on?" cless asked. "I don't know my self sir…" Rune glom answered cless. They all looked up toward the ceiling and could only wonder what was making the castle shake so much. What in the world could have power like this? Could this be dhaos doing as well? Was he trying to make the wall around them fall?
But soon after that…the castle stopped shaking. "What…was that about…?" klarth asked looking to rune glom. "I wish I knew Sir. Klarth…" Rune glom whispered to klarth. "Hmm…what's going on?" a girl voice asked. They all quickly turned to see who's voice that way. They watched Sara slowly sit up rubbing her eyes. "Sara!" cless yell toward her. "Hmm? Yes…?" she asked still rubbing her eyes a bit. Rune glom slowly smiled; he was glad to see she was alright.
"You're alright!" cless cried as he ran over to her. "Umm…yeah why wouldn't I be?" Sara asked looking a bit confused. "You don't remember?" he asked. She quickly shook her head. "No, I remember stopping the pure magic with the four element spirits…" she answered him. "I mean aside from that…" cless whispered. "Huh? What do you mean aside from that?" she asked. Well she didn't remember falling off of the tower of the castle it looked like. "n-nothing…" cless said waving his hands in front of him self a bit.
"Hmm…" klarth said putting a hand under his chin. Then the king quickly entered the room. "Is everything alright here?" He asked looking around worried. "Yes, my lord…" Rune glom whispered. Then the king's eyes stopped seeing the sage was awake again. "Oh my! You're alright, lady naru…" he said quickly making his way over to her. Then he quickly pushed cless aside. "Ahh!" cless yelled falling into the floor. "Uh…yes…" Sara whispered feeling a sweat drop roll down the back of her head. "Good good…" the king said nodding a bit. Cless slowly sat up glaring toward the king.
Klarth shook his head a bit as well as did Rune glom. Then a soldier quickly ran inside the room. "My lord!" the soldier yelled toward the king. The king quickly turned around to look at the soldier. "What is the meaning of this?" the king asked with angry in his voice. "I'm sorry my lord…but we have a problem…" the soldier said kneeing down to the king. "What is this problem…?" the king asked. "They're has been a cave in…at Morlia Gallery…" The soldier finished saying.
"M-Morlia gallery?" Klarth asked stepping toward the king. "Sir Klarth?" The king asked. "That's where…." Klarth quickly cut him self off. "No…" klarth quickly shook his head a bit. "That isn't all sirs…some treasure hunters are trapped down there as well…" the king looked worried toward the soldier. "My lord…let us take care of this…!" klarth said looking toward the king. The king looked a bit lost. "Klarth? What are you saying?" Arche asked. "Think about it…who was at the bottom before?" klarth asked. "Who was at the bottom…?" cless whispered to him self. "It was…UH!" cless looked surprised toward klarth.
Klarth slowly nodded to cless. Then cless nodded back to him. "Yes, please let us…" cless said. The king slowly nodded to them. "Alright, I'll leave this in your hands…" the king said toward klarth and cless. "Thank you my lord…" Klarth whispered. The king slowly nodded leaving the room with the soldier following him.
Sara slowly climbed off her bed looking a bit lost toward the three. "Who's at the bottom?" Sara asked. "The lord of the Elements…or better known as the lord of Judgement…" klarth whispered looking toward Sara. "M-Maxwell?" Sara asked. Klarth slowly nodded to her. "We should hurry on…" cless whispered picking up his sword. The other three slowly nodded to cless. "Yes…" arche whispered.
"We have to hurry to Morlia gallery…or who knows what will happen to those treasure hunters…" Sara whispered as the four quickly left the guess room. "You sure…you're up for this…?" arche asked looking toward Sara. "Yeah, I have to be…need all the help we can get right?" Sara asked looking toward arche. "Yes…you're right…" Arche said with a smile across her face. "Well…let's hurry on…!" cless yelled as the four ran out of the castle and toward the east where the cave called Morlia gallery stood waiting. They could only worry and wonder what Maxwell the lord of judge ment had planned for the treasure hunters.
