Reawakening
3rd PoV
A year has pasted since the Demons had invaded the continentLurensia. Elsword, Aisha, Rena, Elesis and Raven have been in the Henir time and space realm since that day and had been finally come out.
In the continent Fluone demons are still roaming but they have managed to find a sunken city that may be salvageable.
Elsword and crew had finally finished up their training and were eager to show each other what they have learned and their growth.
When they all came out however...they all reeked of sweat, due to the altered time in the Henir time and Space, they had no idea a whole year and a few months has pasted.
There clothes were torn beyond repair and Elesis, Elsword and Raven had scars all over their bodies. Mainly Raven and Elsword..
Luto had told them all that happened while they were away and sent them back to Ruben except Elesis and Elsword. Elesis had received a promotion to Grand Master. She was given the necklace of Victory and Destruction.
Elsword was given a title to up hold In Velder but had to start from the bottom so he considered just a sword knight but has been acknowledged to have skills of a higher class along with Raven. Elsword was also given the royal Velder necklace of strength and wisdom.
They decided they would go to Altera to go to Eve. Its been so long after all. In Ruben, their was a note with a transport pad in Elesis's and Elsword's old house.
Due to their help, They were given a large reward and the siblings decided to give to Ruben. They also had a small manor there as well big enough for all them with their old house close by it.
They headed for Altera for a visit and relaxation and were surprised at the site.
The island had grown much bigger now and had a feint blue glow around it. "It seems those three really kept the place in check huh?" Elsword looked up at the Alterian palace.
They got in and was met with all the guards bowing to them. Elsword, Aisha, Rena and Raven held the highest authority given to them by the Queen.
They made it to the throne room where Apple and Q-Proto were waiting on their arrival. "Elsword!" Apple jumped from her throne and into Elsword's arms at which Elsword gladly accepted her into.
She also seemed to age a bit as she grown slightly taller and her hair longer. "Apple, you look well." Rena said with a smile as Apple went to hug her as well. "Aw why do i have be last huh?" Aisha said jokingly.
"Oh, Elsword who is this? she looks like a tiny Eve but with pink hair and eyes did you-" Elesis was cut off by Eve coming in with Crow. "What did Elsword do?" She asked and Elesis laughed it off. "Hey Eve." Aisha said hugging her.
"Ah...i never been in such a...high caliber place. Is this really a castle, its like a whole new world." Ara said looking around it with awe. "This place has that effect on new comers, bare with it." Raven said simply.
"So your staying?!" Apple asked excitedly. "Of course!" Elsword said with equal excitement.
In Velder
Velder was still assisting Chung with restoring Hamel. They may be able to resurface a few cities but they won't be able to station any soldiers there since many citizens hold resentment to them for sinking their cities and homes.
The demons still roam that continent but Velder had not sent any soldiers there to reclaim areas since they just got out their war invasion and was rebuilding.
So far, most of the Velder kingdom was restored. Thankfully, the destruction had not spread too far. They were now stabilizing areas and assuring people the threat was now over.
Noah claimed the throne and made Edan and Valak her personal guards. Speka was her court mage and Jahari, the black springgan was her advisor since he was very well verse in politics.
3 months later
Three months past of pure relaxation for the crew. Although, Ara wanted to go out and help her village as well as purify her brother, she eventually gave into the fun she had on the island.
They traveled around the continent to all the regions they have been to before.
MorningAlterian PalaceElsword's PoV
I woke up in with Apple wrapped around me still sleeping. Aww, i want to stay in bed but i gotta get up for the day. Its not good to sleep in, it makes you more lazy.
I went to the bathroom mirror and stared at myself. I had a bad bed head and my hair was now almost to my lower back. Ill just throw it into a ponytail. "Well not as bad as sis's." Her hair was practically at the floor so she had it worse than all of us.
I put on my normal armor and clothes after a good cold shower. Cold showers help make a person feel more refreshed while hot makes you want to go back to sleep. Rena told me this to get me and Aisha out of bed and to not soak up all the hot water.
I came back woke Apple up. She got up rubbing her eyes and went to go freshen up.
We went to dinning area that was built for us humans since nasods don't eat so a dinning room was really unnecessary for them. Everyone was already there and was eating eggs and bacon. "Your late." Aisha said pointing her fork at me. I guess Ara made breakfast again. I can tell when Rena or Ara makes food since it has a distinct smell.
"well i can see that much." i say sitting down next to Rena. Apple sat in my lap and yawned. "She's only like this with you guys around.." Q said next to me. Yea, Apple is basically a child so ruling over an advance kingdom like this can be pretty boring.
"Well we are fun." Aisha bragged. "So what's for today?" I asked and Eve answered me. "We have gotten a letter from the City, Elder. It seems like they are experiencing problems." She said handing me the note.
"Oh..." Apple said sadly. Aw she knew we were going to have to leave again... I pet her head and leaned her back. Such soft hair, like silk. "They are having sighting of nasods?" How is that possible?
"It baffled me as well. Since no soldiers or any kind if nasods have left the island. Even if they wanted to revolt." She said sitting down in front of me. "Els, do you think.." Rena said with a serious face. "yea, only person to be suspected was Wally."
"But i heard you killed him." Sis says with a confused face. "I did, but maybe some survived or was stored away and our now reappearing." I get up with apple in my arms.
"Were going?" Raven too got up. "Yea, sorry Apple." I apologised. "No its ok. You must find what is causing this before it tarnished the Alterian kingdoms reputation." She spoke in a more sophisticated and serious voice. "Heh that's a good queen." I say and she smiles.
We all went to teleportation pad to go back to Ruben and then continue on foot to Elder. "Be safe." Apple said and Q-proto waved to us. Eve was coming as well as she wanted to see what was happening.
"Alright bye Apple we will be back for another visit ok." Rena said in her motherly voice. I pressed the button and the white light encased us.
Ruben
We were inside the manor and came out. It was now noon so we could still make it there on time and with some investigation time.
We walked out and expected to see villagers but, empty. The while village was empty. "That's not how this is suppose to be." Aisha mutters.
We checked the house and found no trace of anyone. Even Eve couldn't track them due to a disturbance in the area. "This must have something to do with Elder's problem." Raven suspected and we nod.
We were going to go to Elder but Rena called me and Aisha out. "Hey...do you..um. Can we revisit my old village... Unless its a bod time.." She was rubbing her arm avoiding eye contact. "Of course! its been while right?" Aisha answers for us.
"So we will continue to Elder then." Raven said and i nod. Rena walked to the old trail with me and Aisha following close behind.
Rena's PoV
The path had overgrowth and leaves all over. It was like leaving the forest and onto a jungle path.
We finally made it to the old gates. The place was still somewhat untouched. The damages had grown over in time into the place making it look like all the local ruins around it.
We slid down the hill and walked into it. "Man, shame we had to see as it is now." Aisha said looking around. "This place was really nice, and pretty fun if you knew your way around the trees." I said and they hummed.
"You guys go explore for a while, I'm going to a little place." I tell them and they nod. There's one place i really want to visit.
Elven Training ground
This place...so many memories... I look around and walked a bit further into the field. The same targets now layer with tree growth and the grass waa much longer now.
I raised my hand and began to gather the nature energy around me. I feel them...they were all waking up. It seems that training with Lefay, the elven spirit that i trained with in Henir, i have been able to feel the energies around me much clearer.
She taught me how to use my nature force...Just like you did master Andus. I began to see all the elves that died during the battle years ago. "Rena, i see you have grown. Master Andus spoke.
He had a white robe that covered his while body and he held a white cane. "To be able to use the nature gathering to this extent... i knew you were the right choice." He said with a smile.
..."Rena." I turned around and saw Elsword. I wipe the tears from my eyes as he walked closer to me. "Ah...Elsword..." I heard master Andus said and Elsword stopped. Huh? he can hear him?
He was staring right past me and at the ethereal Andus. Could he see him as well? "Els, you can see him?" I asked. "Probably not as you can, but yea." Amazing!
I grabbed his hands. "How?" He seemed to struggle trying to answer before we heard Andus spoke again. "As a sage user, they can see as we elves can see." He says walking forward.
"But that is not important right now. You two must go now. Right now both humans and elves are in danger that resides in this village." He says poking Elsword with his cane.
"Why did i get poked..." He said rubbing his back. He can even feel it... "Go on now. Your other friend is waiting on you." He pushes us both out the training ground. "When your done, you can visit." He seems like a cranky grandpa who gave tough love.
We went down hill and saw Aisha tapping her foot impatiently. "What were you two doing huh?" Uhh, nothing? "What about you." Elsword said. "I asked first" She said jabbing her finger into his armor.
"Cmon guys, lets get moving." I grab their arms and walk out of the old ruined village. First things first, lets solve this problem.
Eldernoon
We got to Elder and Eve had managed to get a few rooms in the new hall they build. We would settle on the sleep pairs later but for now we would split up and find some clues.
I was with Aisha and Elesis, Raven was with Eve and Ara was with Elsword. That last pair interested everyone since Ara was still a bit, distanced from us since we only met her after our battle with Berthe.
I wonder what will happen while those two are together~
Ara's PoVWe were on walking around talking to any passerby we saw. Well mainly Elsword since everyone seemed to have known him. I conclude he has been here before?
The city was large and Elsword says it has gotten it bigger since last time he was here. I feel so useless. Elsword put a hand on my shoulder when i hung my head down.
"You alright?" He asked with a serious face. "I just feel like I'm doing nothing." I tell him and he hums. "Don't worry about it, everyone has something they can do." He says and then stops. "Lets head back for now, i think we gathered enough." Ah i wonder if everyone else is done?
Guild HallEveningWe came back and everyone was eating. I assume they were waiting on us. We sat don and a server placed plates in front of us.
"Ok, lets start. Raven and Eve." Elsword said after we were all done eating. "Yes. Well it seems the citizens say that some have reported their sightings. They have also heard digging noises wherever they go." Elsword nods and look over to Rena.
"They say that they have been seeing them in the shadow forest and around Ruben. It seems like the disappearance of Ruben villagers haven't been noticed yet." Elesis then picks up where Rena left off.
"Not only in shadow forest but a cave that was said to be nearby it. It was once used for outlawed bandits as a hideout. That is another location for investigation." She finishes.
"Ok..For tomorrow we split again into groups. One part will explore shadow forest the will investigate the cavern." Everyone nods and they all left the table. It felt like a conference room where the big boss listens to the servers. Well that's bow it was in my homeland.
We all had our sleeping pair. I was with Elsword's sister Elesis. Rena and Aisha and Eve were together and Elsword and Raven were the last. Im guessing it was more of a boys and girls together thing.
3rd PoVBanthus's Cave
This old cave is Where Banthus used to use as an Hideout before his disappearance. After that, the cave had been raided by soldiers to rid the nearby city of bandits.
The cave was dense and was infested with bats. That is until you make the right turns.
The cave housed Banthus's great wealth he accumulated as an bandit over the years. This was being guarded by the nasods that were inside the cave as well.
The had bulky bodies and their hands were chainsaws, swords, hammers and machine guns.
The cave also lead to another location and the nasods had been digging there for days now. They also had villagers and people there as hostages as a fail safe if they are ever caught.
Two cloaked figures leave the cave with their hoods, along with masks making it impossible to distinguish their faces.
One was a small man who seemed to have been wearing heavy armor under their clothes. He had a large sword in a sheath on his back and a crossbow gun around his waist.
The other was a small man. He had two swords on his back and two daggers at his side.
They walked to the outskirts of the city and opened a hatch that led underground. They passed all the nasods that were still sleeping and human guards that were there. They had black and grey armor on with daggers and swords.
They met a large man with black wavy hair and beard. He had brown eyes with a scar on his left eye. He wore pure black padded armor with a scimitar at his side.
"Any news?" The man asked in gruff voice. "Nothin." The large cloaked man said. "Gah, are you sure these 'nasods' are as great as you say they are." He turns around in a scowl.
"Trust me, we have all the time in the world. No one has sent any word. Right now its just rumors that we can cut to silence." The smaller cloak man speaks up.
"Hmph, see to it this speeds up. If what you say is down there in that cavern. Then we must make haste before those damn knights intervene." He then waves them off as a gesture they can go and they left.
The cloaked figures headed out and went back to the cave.
"Tch, i can't believe that guy." The large figure said. "He is annoyin, but we have to put up with him." The smaller one said.
"As long as we get what we want, all will be fine."
