Chapter 7: Absoulute,the Bloodsong, and the Escape
"4 cut diamonds,200 steel ingots, and 50 fucking obby shards!?" yelled Stigs as they walked along "yea, thats wat he said, dat must worth like... 500k total! (obby shard = 3k ea, steel ingot = 100gp ea, diamond = 3k ea, + obby shards r extremely rare)" said Manticore "but more of that later, we must cross the icy river" once they walked the cold,shivering caves of the Shiverpeaks (dat y it called, duh! lol) Cmeister took out some blankets to keep us warm. Stigs had frostbite all over his leg,almost to the point where the gang had to chop it off, Avilame was an icicle, and Spikey's eyes were frozen, so he couldnt see...a pity,besides he needed glasses in the first place. They finaly got to the icey river that the old dwarf crafter was telling them about. Avilame tried to run across but slipped and feel, clocking his chin on the icy got out some climbing boots for grip on the river. As they walked carefully, Stigs and Avilame were standing on a pack of ice, and made it crack!Quickly, they ran to the other side while the river was broken into chunks of ice.A few minutes later they finally got to the Forbbiden cave was moist,damp,freezing,and dark. Avilame was clostriphobic (the fear of inclosed spaces) and waited outside. The gang walked into the cave and saw a bright light w/ some1 in it. Manticore ran to the creature that was standing, "r u Absoulute?" it took awhile for him to speak "yess, it is I, Absoulute, and do u require assistance from my skilled attributes?" "yes we do, we need 200 steel ingots,4 cut diamonds,and 50 obsidian shards...oh and w/ runes for an old dwarf crafter in Thunderhead Keep for infusion." said Manticore "ur wish will b granted, but beware, ur clumsy friend outside my cave is in grave danger, the King's troops have arrived, to arrest u, i will give u everything now and tell wat u need to do to escape his hands.u must head for the is a portal that could teleport u outside the gates of Thunderhead Keep.i will disappear now, so they cant find me, but will loot my equipment but i can spawn my own." said Absoulute "thank u!" yelled Manticore "run!there isent much time, i will save ur friend, oh and here, take this, it is the sword of the flame djinn, and u r the chosen heir of it" "but wat makes me the heir?" asked Manticore "i cannot say, for there is little time, GO!" yelled Absoulute. so the gang ran for the the heavy loads of materials in his backpack, Stigs was so exausted he couldnt go on. "cmon stigs its thru the portal we go! were almost there!hurry!" yelled C "im trying..." complained Stigs while they heard the marching of dwarf soldiers marching into the cave. they saw the FOP leave thru the portal and tried to catch up but the portal closed, saving their butts in time. "ah, finally the outdoors of Thunderhead!" said C "yea, but we must return the goods to the old dwarf!" said Manticore "im afraid he cant help anymore, he was sent to death by the king for i am his son, a blacksmith, trying to continue his work." said a dwarf "the names Timon, now i will craft u wat u need but it will take all day to forge it and infuse it at the same time. " "well that explains y the king sent troops to the cave" said Avilame who is safe and sound by the gang "ur here! omfg i thot u were ded!" said Stigs "yepper, Absoulute saved me" Manticore gave Timon the materials, and he started working in his shop while the gang was in the basement where Timon's workshop is. Overnight Timon finished crafting the armor but can only infuse when the person is wearing it. "ok ill wear it, just tell me if it hurts" said Manticore "it will hurt no matter wat" said Timon, he slapped the insignias on the shoulder blades while he was singing an incantation. Manticore was getting stinged a bit and he heard something that was very familiar to him, the Bloodsong. "wat does that mean?" asked Manticore "it is in the language that was used before the human race, all races know it except humans, the incantation i was singing was known as the Bloodsong, it is rumored that the song would open the portal, during the next solar eclipse, that would lead right into the lair of the devil, Morgoth." said Timon "ah, have u heard anything about The Seeker, a fake?" asked Manticore "yes, lots of it. I heard that The Seeker isent who he really is, and the devil has taken the shape of him, via a curse" said Timon "then who would The Seeker look like?" "i have no clue, i believe that Morgoth has turned The Seeker unto his form and possesing him, thats all i know" suddenly they all heard a knock on the door. Timon walked up the stairs and opened the door. "Timon Yachte, you are under penalty of death for treason, by the king!" said a dwarf police, they severed Timons head while the gang heard the slaughter from upstairs. Quickly they ran thru the basement door out to the gates of Thunderhead were awaiting them and the full army was behind them. "wat do we do now?!" yelled C "im thinkin!" said Manticore "i believe the sword ,that Absoulute gave me, would have the powers of the Flame on to ur boxer shorts this will b a bumpy ride!" Manticore lashed out the sword of the Flame Djinn and a fiery blast awaited the army of King Albert Stein , turning them all into a pile of ashes. "wow, good thinking Manticore!" said Stigs "thanks" said Manticore as they ran to the wall they got thru b4 they got to Thunderhead Keep. "finally fresh air and no more clostriphobic probs!no more darkness!" yelled Avilame. but just as Avilame said darkness, storm clouds rolled in from the south and the battle for Runescape had just begun...
