CHAPTER III: THE COUNCIL OF ELVES (4)

CHAPTER III: THE COUNCIL OF ELVES (4)

A quest unveiled for the millenary legend; bribed to dignity and glory. As he mastered his ways of ancient vogue, scoured beneath the chest of the mountain. Tangled around the void of the forest. The chosen feller of lost souls; wherein reflections of the moonlight followed his enlightened steps, as an invisible danger threatened everything he believed in. A forgotten tale, incarnated as the spirit among the deepest trees.  Mustered with the buried ancestry, as it was born above the fallen leaves, and the sunken fields. 

Only Leyra remains, around a defeated Argon (she had been turned into a half dragon half human warrior Hera in dragon form and her three remaining children the triplets with 6 years, the 3 oldest died. Hera then accepts the reality of death and tells her mother that she is ready to die with her family, but Leyra is not going to give up. She decides to cast a transfusion spell among the beings present. She draws blood from Argon, Hera, and her triplets. The spell consisted of exchanging the material energy of each being with one another. With Hera's blood, she cast a spell to convert the triplets into young dragons. With the blood of the triplets, he turned Argon's material energy into a human baby again (again blocking the spell that Leyra had unlocked from Wiz that condemned Argon to have dragon blood and essence but in human form) and with the Argon blood performed the conversion spell to half dragon and half human but this time to Hera. That is, the spell consisted of all beings exchanging physical states among themselves, orchestrated by Leyra.

is that not even they could graduate. This battle was destined from the beginning of time, and in it, the fate of all peoples was at stake. The harmony of The Region was exposed on the table. The intensity of the battle was exorbitant, and it was not clear which of the two was going to win. A massively close combat.

Amara's curly golden hair was fading, for in her heart there was a thirst for revenge, anger and resentment at the magnitude of betrayal her sister was doing. She couldn't help it, even if she wanted to. This momentum allowed him to fight her. In fact, this impetuosity settled a greater force in her being, even though it was infuriating to her. She was leading the battle.

In a sharp, horizontal movement, Rita tried to attack her sister's head. This she bent quickly and, with her left hand, buried her fire crystal in the ankle of the evil sorceress, and with it immeasurable pain permeated her leg; forcing her to remain static in her position.

Amara clenched her right fist, and it was covered in fire. With all the strength she supported, she punched her sister; moving it near the edge of the mountain. The sea glass fell from Rita's hand onto the damp earth, and Amara grabbed it. She this she slowly approached the edge of her, because in her mind, the image of annihilating her with her own evil was present.

Rita then, tore out the fire crystal still buried in her ankle and tried to defend herself against it. But the attacks of her enraged sister forced her to retreat further and further; her getting closer and closer to the precipice of her void. The golden daughter began to impose on the contest, and in an instant, she cut off part of the fingers of her sister's left hand; she catching the elongated glass of fire.

Amara attacked with both weapons, and she seemed to be winning. Rita defended herself as she could with the silver bracers once given by her father, and with the little dark magic that she managed to emanate from her hands. She was weak, surrendered. But this did not make Amara stop, on the contrary. She attacked her with more force, with more hatred, with more fervor, until Rita fell to her knees; neither her magnetic shields, nor her wavy spells, resisted him. The aura of her body fell defeated in the presence of her golden sister.

She was then, prostrated on the very edge where she had thrown Ceres's body moments before, before a victorious Amara, with the oscillation of red and blue vapors swirling around her.

"What are you waiting for Amara?" Rita says crying. End this once and for all… I have done my duty.

It was a necessary path; Rita was a danger to all and the evil that had engendered in her had to be eliminated. Or not? After all, this was her sister; her partner since her birth. And if she murdered her, she was probably going to turn into the same evil that she had become. Rita's life was now in the hands of the golden princess.

Which path should Amara choose with respect to her sister?

Decision 1 - Death

Decision 2 - Allow him to escape

Decision 3 - Destroy both crystals

Death

The king's daughter looked carefully through the eyes of her sister, and in her soul she found only terror; immeasurable panic towards death. Amara understood, watching inside her, that her sister was unaware of the dimension of power that she had released from her; but that, at the same time, she knew perfectly well what she was doing, and what she had done. She understood that her sister was not being controlled by any evil. She was evil, an evil that was now up to her to correct.

She wasn't sure, however, as she didn't know if death was the right solution. Although, after thirteen years, she had finally understood that her younger sister was an impure being. A being with intentions that were neither genuine nor honorable. If this didn't explode now, it would explode later. Perhaps even with greater consequences.

However, Amara couldn't do it; she couldn't murder her. She was self-defeating, and she didn't fit in with the values her mother had taught him. Not with the sense of honor instilled by her father. Her mind began to cloud with thoughts. Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, Rita snatched the fire crystal from Amara's hand, and buried it in her left thigh. The golden daughter screams in pain, and in an instant reaction she grabs her sister's arm, brings her closer to her while still kneeling on the ground, and with the sea glass, she attacked Rita directly in the heart, piercing her body. , impregnating it with bluish poison.

Weakened, Rita closed her eyes, held herself accountable, and let her body fall back; sentencing her death. She falling into the depths of the great Mount Curul, she abandoning her life on the cloudy void.

The sky began to clear. The woods began to glow her green again, and daylight illuminated Amara's face.

But the spell does not have such effective results, the only one that manages to be done with clarity is Hera, transforming into Erin (her human form), but still having the possibility of transforming into a golden dragon. The triplets seem to have died and are still children and argon manages to become a baby. Erin can embrace her mother as a human for the first time and cries with emotion, Leyra then tells Erin that there is not much time left, she must save her father and sisters, they must be removed from the place and take Argon to a safe place to that can be protected and raised. 

Just when Leyra is organizing this, the ground where she is collapses and falls into the abyss of the forest below the mountain where the empire is, Erin screams for her mother and does not find her that is when Erin is going to explode and lose control of his power again, when two dragons appear out of nowhere, apparently the only survivors. These two dragons ask her that they need instructions and a leader, who can guide them through this catastrophe and see how to survive their king and her children. The dragons bring Erin to reason, who manages to stay and understand that the most she wanted her mother was this. 

Unable to claim that she is dead and must make a decision whether to rescue her mother or save her family, Erin then instructs the two dragons named Bongo and Coelum to take their father in a basket and take the far southwestern roads to Arriving in a farming and village region to leave her father with a healthy family in a safe place and ensure their survival, Erin would take her brothers, whom the spell was already beginning to take effect, in the northeast facing the beings forehead in his Metosian form (half dragon and half human, in that brief moments. Erin was Kepler's most powerful being, using her father's sword in conjunction with her golden dragon energy and interspersing her physical dragon and human states. human convenience. Her body was a mouldable material and it exterminated everything in her path, but the environment was extremely hostile, having her brothers on the tail protecting him, her objective was not to destroy all beings, but to open a way to escape. She succeeds, and when she has enough space she becomes supreme golden dragon, and she escapes from it with her brothers totally wounded and attacked.
