Here is the next chapter, I have neglected this quite long now haven't I? Anyways, hope you like the chapter, enjoy!

The land of Souls was nothing like the lush beautiful forests of the Endless Forest. The land was barren and open, the few plants that grew there where either covered with thorns or poisons. Harry had questioned how he was supposed to find anything to eat. Paskovich had looked at him with doubt.

"You don't know how to absorb energy from the earth?" He had questioned. Harry remembered Brook teaching him something like that.

"You can live on that energy?" He asked.

"Well there are not a lot of living things here for you to eat so until we get to the city I would advise you to try", Paskovich said with a smirk. Harry had frowned but didn't say anything. The vampire was starting to get on his nerves.

As they entered the city Harry noticed that he was probably the only one with a pulse, and Tiki of course.

"We need to head to the Hall of Dread", Paskovich said.

"Sounds like a fun place", Harry answered dryly. Paskovich chuckled as they headed towards an enormous chapel like building. It was quite beautiful, in a creepy unsettling way. Tiki was quite restless so Harry dismounted.

"You should return to the forest", he told Tiki and petted her flank gently. Tiki seemed to agree because she turned and ran away as soon as the words left his mouth. Harry sighed and looked after her sadly. She had been a great companion for the past two weeks.

"Guess we have to get you an undead mount", Paskovich said snapping Harry out of his thoughts. Harry glanced at the undead unicorn Paskovich rode, he wasn't sure he wanted to ride such a creature. From what Harry could tell the beast was quite wild.

He walked the rest of the way to the hall, when they entered Harrys mouth dropped. Skeletons, walking around, speaking, living?! (Well maybe not but still)

"Ah Sandro the lich I wanted to see", Paskovich called and walked up to a lich with a midnight blue robe and gold pharaoh looking crown.

"Paskovich", Sandro greeted in return. His jaw didn't move when he spoke in a raspy voice. Harry shuddered, this was extremely creepy.

"Who is this?" Sandro turned to look at Harry with the hollows of his skull.

"Ah he is the reason I wanted to see you! Harry here…"

"A Christian?" Sandro seemed to sneer as he interrupted.

"You would think so but no, he is from the old realm", Paskovich answered. Harry shifted, he was very uncomfortable. Sandro closed in to Harry and grabbed his hand with his own skeletal hand, Harry froze.

"Really?" Sandro seemed utterly fascinated as he studied Harry.

"Yes", Harry answered and gulped.

"I almost remember the realm, tell me child where we right? Did the realm lose it's magic?"

"Um, well not totally but since coming here I realize how week the magic is in comparison", Harry told. He still wanted to pull away from Sandro and hide behind Paskovich but Sandro had an iron grip on his hand. Sandro nodded and let go of Harry.

"As predicted", he muttered. Harry pressed his now free hand to his chest. It had gone ice cold by Sandros touch.

"How is this possible?" Harry whispered, he could not comprehend how skeletons were moving around and talking.

"What child?" Sandro asked and tilted is skull slightly, Harry wondered if it would fall off if he tilted his head to much.

"How are you alive?" Harry asked. Sandro seemed to glance at Paskovich before they both broke out in laughter. Well…Harry thought Sandro was laughing.

"Oh dear child, no one here except you are alive. But I assume you refer to my more moving around and speaking, hmm?" Sandro chuckled. Harry blushed and nodded.

"So necromancy is not performed in the old realm?"

"Well yes but not in… your form. A man named Voldemort has made several horocruxes", Harry answered. This was getting very uncomfortable. The mention of horocruxes seemed to set of another round of laughter, not just from Sandro but some of the skeletons walking by.

"How primitive", Sandro said was he composed himself.

"Yes indeed, but the reason I wanted to see you is that I want you to gather the council. The Order has broken the truce and invaded The Endless Forest", Paskovich explained. Sandro seemed to snap out of his amusement.

"Is that so? Well it's about time, our armies are getting restless", Sandro said. His magic suddenly pumped around him as he quickly turned and stalked away from Harry and Paskovich.

"What? He wants war?!" Harry spat and turned to Paskovich. Paskovich chuckled and patted Harry on the head.

"Oh little human, everybody wants war!"

Everyone really seemed to want war, as soon as Sandro had proclaimed what the Order had done everybody seemed eager to go to battle. As they discussed strategies, Harry became more and more frustrated. He had come here in hope to be able to save his master but the liches, demons, vampires, zombies and other undead creatures only seemed to care about trying new spells and battle moves on the living. After the meeting Harry stalked up to Paskovich.

"You are not going to help me free Brook are you?" He asked in a furious voice. Paskovich gave him an easy smile.

"Of course we are! The Order can't very well get away with this can they?"

"But it seems that you want to conquer instead of freeing the city of Nature", Harry objected.

"Well conquering is more fun now is it? But don't you worry as soon as the city of Nature is under our rule we will free your master", Harry balled up his fists.

"So what will happen to the endless forest? Will you make it to a desert land?" He spat. Paskovich shook his head.

"You underestimate the power of the land Harry. Do you think the creatures and heroes make the land they live on? No, we choose this place because it suits us and our creatures, the same as the elves and humans of the Endless Forest. The land will not change even if our ruler rule it"

"You have a ruler?" Harry asked chocked.

"Oh Harry every land has a ruler, they just don't show themselves much", Paskovich smirked and patted Harry on the shoulder. This was the first time Harry had ever heard of a specific ruler, he got the impression that there was some kind of democracy between every lands hero… Apparently not.

I had really not planed the ruler part but I figured that it's is probably best to mention them. When I say rulers I ofcourse mean the hypothetical players that play Heroes. They will not be important to the story thoe. So I was thinking and realised that I have not mentioned Harrys clothes, I imagien him wearing some elvish inspired know how the elvis heroes dress right? If not you should look it up.

So tell me what you think! I Harry is going to get a new master soon? Guess who?
