Episode 5

🎄HUNKA FOREST🎄

Harvey opened his eyes, he looked around and he was in the cave, the rag he wears for clothe has tore on the shoulder, he guessed Edgar dragged him in when he fainted.

He saw Edgar laid beside their dead mother, he had slept off. Harvey stood up and carried his mother's dead body outside, somewhere beside the cave, he wanted to dig to bury her but he only has a matchet.

Edgar slowly walked up to him.

"How do we bury her now?" Harvey asked

Edgar remained silent for a while and then roared, he roared really loudly. Nothing happened at first.

"What was that for?" Harvey asked and suddenly, badgers started coming out of no where. They started digging and in no time they were done. 

Harvey slowly lowered their mum's body down and the badgers covered it and they went back to wherever they came from.

Harvey wiped off the tears on his face and he went back to the cave, Edgar followed.

"I'm tired of living my life in complete isolation!" Harvey yelled.

"I want to go back, back to where we were born!" he added

"You can't" Edgar said and Harvey kept silent.

🌠KUHAN🌠

Lady Blythe was sitting on her bed, still think about her encounter with Elmer.

One of the elders suddenly appeared in her room, she sat beside her and placed her hand on her shoulder.

"You met with Elmer?" The woman asked

"Yes I did"

"Tell me! How is our mission different from his?" Lady Blythe asked and the woman shook her head.

"It's way different my lady, Elmer used to be part of us, but there has always been this dark side of him."

"He was the most powerful among us, he always wanted everything for himself, he wanted to rule over everyone, he's a power-hungry sorcerer." The woman explained.

"I know his plan, Doka thinks they've the best sorcerer and all that but what Elmer really wants it's to deceive them for a while, he'd take over Doka and also Kuhan if we're not careful!"

"What we want is to avenge the king for killing your mother and also make him pay for killing sorcerers, tagging all of them as evil, we mean no harm to the people. Our target is just the Royal family." The woman explained.

"At what cost?" Lady Blythe asked

"What do you mean?" the woman asked

"You are not telling me something"

"Princess Roxanne would be the one to kill me isn't she?" Lady Blythe asked and the woman kept quiet, she didn't expect her to know. The silence was cut off when a knock came on her door, the elder disappeared.

"Yes?" Lady Blythe said

"The King wants to see you! Urgently!!" The guard said.

Lady Blythe stood up and went to meet the king in his chambers, she bowed down to him. She actually know why he called him.

She's the one responsible for the King's dream, the woman the King was always seeing in his dream is the Priestess's  mother, the King never knew, he only knew her Guardian which is the former priestess.

"I want it to stop!" King Emmett said

"The dreams I've been having, I want it to stop!" The king repeated.

"I see this woman almost every time in my dreams. She was a sorcerer, I killed her to protect the kingdom" King Emmett said

The priestess closed her eyes said some spells. A small object appeared on her hand and she handed it to the king.

"Put this under your bed your majesty."

"It should stop your bad dreams" She said, bowed and left.

🌠DOKA🌠

Prince Clyde walked to the chain man's cell in the dungeons. He entered the cell and smiled at him.

"Young Master" the man said

"I see good in you, a lot of good, why are you supporting your father?" he asked

Prince Clyde laughed heavily

"Very soon, we'd be defeating our sworn enemies!"

"Sworn enemies?"

"Doka and Kuhan used to be allies. Everything changed when your generation started leading, the kings that came from your family are all evil, they wanted Kuhan to themselves! But I see good in you!" the man replied

"What do you know?" Prince Clyde replied 

"What do I know, I've lived for 250 years! I don't age" He replied. 

"Your father has started what he wouldn't be able to finish."  

"The seal you took, if only you know what it would unleash on Doka" 

"The seal shouldn't be removed when deactivated, it's meant to be where it's supposed to be for good 9 years!" The man explained 

"Wh.... What are you talking about?" Prince Clyde asked, he's beginning to feel scared. 

"No one knows of this, only the guardians of the seal does, you took the seal, you'd face the consequences. The only way to avert this is to return the seal back!" 

"Before 9 years, the boy in the  prophecy should've mastered his powers" He thought in his mind and smiled. 

"Oh, it's coming" He said and smiled. 

Prince Clyde ran out of the cell and went straight to the King's court, he barged in and whispered to the King. 

The King told Elmer, he was puzzled. 

"I've never heard of such" He said 

Everything began shaking, the land seems to be tearing apart, an earthquake was going to happen. 

"Do something Elmer!" The king yelled, he was beginning to fear. 

Elmer stood up and went to gra the Seal where it was kept, he disappeared and appeared at the hills, he gently placed the seal where it was supposed to be and appeared back in Doka. 

Everything had stopped. 

"Does that mean we can't attack Kuhan anymore?" King Otis asked 

"Not until 9 years, as the man said" Elmer replied 

"Damn!" King Otis said out of frustration. 

Elmer left the king's court and went to the dungeons, he entered the man's cell. 

"What's your name?" Elmer asked 

"Mortimer" He replied 

"The seal.... It has unimaginable powers right?" 

"I want it! I want the power!" Elmer said and Mortimer laughed 

"No one can handle the power of the seal, not even the one prophesied to kill you" Mortimer replied and Elmer's eyes widen in shock. 

Elmer took out his dagger, forged from the powers of Six elders. No one can survive a cut of the dagger. He wanted to push it in his chest but the dagger wouldn't enter. 

Mortimer smiled again. 

"I'm protected by the seal, you can harm me, hurt me but you can never kill me! I'd die only when I set my eyes on the chosen next guardian of the seal!" He said.
