Welcome back, gang. We've reached the climax! I hope you enjoy it.
Free Today
Telepathically, Sotark called out. He called to one who would free him. He had to be free! He was the master of justice, earthquakes, the art of sculpture, the dead and terror. He had to be free! Someone was answering his call, not an evabon but still someone who was strong.
He felt the presence of the one he had been calling coming closer. There were three others with him. Children. Being used as hostages to protect himself from the guards of Sotark's prison no doubt.
In a matter of minutes the person Sotark had been calling to appeared! He was a strange being, as strange as two of the children that were with him. Only one of the three children was an evabon. The other two were strange creatures, different from the adult with the hammer but still strange.
"Free me!" Sotark's voice echoed in the minds of those present. The one he had been calling to raised his hammer.
"I'll gladly free you!" The person stepped closer to the crystal that Sotark was trapped in. "I am the Hunter! I intend to hunt every race that is not my own to extinction and I shall!"
"Drop your hammer! The Hunter turned around, as did the children and saw a bunch of evabon and cats standing near the entrance of the chamber. The Hunter starred at disbelief of the evabon who was talking. It was Gard. "Yes, I survived. I didn't last this long only to be killed by a maniac like you."
"I'll kill you later, old savage." The Hunter turned back to the crystal that kept Sotark imprisoned. Then an arrow flew past the Hunter and hit the crystal. Everyone turned to look at a shocked Autolycus. There was a look of fear on his face.
"No…" Autolycus's eyes were wide and he was shaking his head. "Not me!" The crystal began to crack and within seconds Sotark had broken free. As Sotark broke free, a blast of fire destroyed Autolycus. It had been written that whoever freed Sotark would die. Autolycus hadn't been scared because he had missed he was scared because of what he had done.
Everyone starred in terror at Sotark. He towered over them looking around. "Where is it?" Sotark stomped forward towards the group at the entrance of the chamber. "Where is my hammer?"
"Find a sword your size and fall on the blade!" Sotark starred at Rotherham. This youth dared to insult him? "You'll find your hammer that way!" Sotark clenched his fists and brought them down on the floor of the chamber. The earth began to shake and hs everyone in the chamber fled, Sotark made his escape. He escaped through the network of tunnels until he found himself looking up at the moon. He was free at last!
