A Heart's Darkness! (Zongazonga)

Jealousy and Being Compared.

These two words are how living beings view each other in the ways of life. Short or Tall, Weak or Strong, Young or Old, Male or Female, Good or Bad... These are the most common things whether humans or creatures have inside, being a perfect or an outcast.

They are like light and dark. Many prefer the light that brightens everything, while the dark is always being left alone and fearing it.

In all living things, light and dark are always together inside. Despite the light is always shown to others, there's always a speck of darkness being kept inside, locking it deep inside the heart. However, that does not last forever because the dark will sooner or later be unlock from the heart and spread the negativity of us.

Ask yourself this question: What is the darkness of my heart?

(ZONGAZONGA'S STORY)

Perfection.

That's the word he strive to live, whether it's magic or in studies. In all his life from the time he's born in the life of a sorcerer, all he ever done were studying magic and perfecting them all for the sake of the royal family that rules the kingdom of humans and dinosaurs.

But life wasn't easy when you have someone from the family would become a rival, in Zongazonga's case, his witch cousin and 2 years younger than him, Zinnia.

Unlike Zongazonga, as a witch, Zinnia's talent are less than average that doesn't even come close to being perfect. Unlike a sorcerer's way of life, Zinnia's witch's way of life was way different and very difficult. A witch have to take a written test and a battle until one stands test. It took her a lot of time to prepare and she barely passed it(with some practice which I helped only that one time). After she passed the test, she has to find an adult and powerful witch to train her further in not only magic, but also the importance of life.

Zongazonga remembered that her advanced training with her witch teacher was really difficult and it almost made her give up. That is until... She met Saffira who was a peasant before she and Prince Sauravis married. She told him that they became best friends and it was her who cheered her up and gave her a lavender flower bouquet for her to help her sleep better because Zinnia barely had time to sleep.

In the language of flowers, lavender flower means: "I'll be waiting for you."

This meaning also meant that once Zinnia becomes a full-fledged witch with a witch name, she and Saffira will one day meet again with the possibility of choosing between her and her sorcerer cousin for the position of being the royal family's spellcaster... which turn out to be a dream come true for Zinnia while for Zongazonga, he ended being him leaving into isolation because he didn't win the position he worked so hard all his life.

Ever since then, in his isolated years, he turned into a sorcerer who drowned himself into darkness, taking revenge on everyone and everything around him.

The moment he found a forbidden dark spellbook, he found a way to gain more power and at the same time changing the world into a new world... in which he will be the sole ruler!

That's the beginning of his creations of the Zombiesaurs which caused many deaths and fear to the kingdom... Until the moment of his own death by the hands of Zinnia, who protected the queen and best friend for her sacrifice for both her baby daughter and her people, and the honorable death of the Kingdom's king.

However, that doesn't mean his death means the Kingdom's people will be safe from him.

Zongazonga predicted his death will come the moment it's time. During his and Zinnia's fight, before she beheaded him, he used his remaining strength and magic he have to transfer all of his spiritual life force into his skull.

"Even if the body dies, the spirit will live on eternally!"

That's his last words the moment when his head left the body. Since then, waiting for the right time, the Dark Sorcerer's spirit will rise and wander the world, searching for the perfect host to take over.

Years later, as a spirit he wanders around silently watching how the ruin kingdom works out when his remaining Zombiesaurs wreaking.

Until a host with a strong darkness in the heart comes along which he will gain a body and continue his business of destroying the old world and replacing it with into a world of his creations.

Who is the host Zongazonga's spirit will take over?

I'm sorry if this is short but please try to bear it and I hope you enjoy it.

This year is going to be very busy but I'll still be updating. Happy Year 2024!

Respond to HunterHQ:

Yes, the Stone Plates, Cosmos Stones and their extinction like the one I wrote in your new story and no, this is not a separate story since it involves the history of Cera's family lineage.

I was planning to add Goma's Eocarcharia since he'll be Zongazonga's servant in the future. The artifacts, probably no idea how to add them.

For Zongazonga, some part is written her and the part about him being the main Zombiesaur Boss, you'll just have to guess. The guardians are spirit beings like the goddesses, they'll have more role in the future.

In my thoughts, the dinosaurs that turn into cards will go in a deep sleep when in card form in longer hours and when being summoned back and forth in fast pace, they'll just stay awake that lasts about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
