Demon Souls Fire Keeper Novels & Stories

If he had found her, that means they had saved Swayer as well. “Yes but it was already too late. The entire building was burnt to the ground before we got there.” Gerald replied. “We?” Cruella asked curiously. “Yes, I'm from the fire department. I'm actually the captain. When I found you, you were burnt up and I thought you were dead but you suddenly started breathing and I knew God had given you a second chance.” “God? Who is that?” Cruella asked with a frown. “You don't know God? He is the creator. He created everyone and everything.” Gerald explained and Cruella frowned.

He looked at me in shock and I could see the fear in his eyes when he looked at my arm. "Demon." I heard him say before running away from my room. I just asked why he seems to be scared. Who is the demon? Me? What is a demon by the way? Then when I got dressed I went out of the room and went to the kitchen, I saw a knife fall to the floor so I took it but I immediately let it go and closed my eyes because I saw something in my mind again. I saw the face of my mom and the girl with the horns again, mom was holding a knife and stabbed that girl with the horns, the girl did not know because she was sleeping.

The vendor glanced warily left and right, confirming no one was watching, before gesturing for the beastkin to approach. This was a wolfhound beastkin. He was tall and slender, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. When he stood, he blocked out the bar lights, which cast a shadow over me. Before I could react, the vendor yanked the crude collar around his neck, forcing him to his knees before removing the rusty muzzle.

Thorne waved a hand dismissively as if the answer to the question Julian posed wasn't important, "what did your attacker look like." "We didn't see anything but we were attacked by fire," I responded pointedly. "And ice," came Julian's soft murmur. Thore opened his hand, an orange flame illuminating his palm, "I harness Hellfire. No matter how fast you think you are, the moment you touch it you will burn to ash. Hellfire is the strongest type of fire so it's the only defense a Hellhound needs. No Hellhounds I know can harness water." "I don't trust you."

Without waiting for a response, I summoned my wings and flew to the Fire Palace, where Azazel was staying. The fire palace loomed ahead, a towering structure of obsidian and brimstone, glowing faintly with the embers of eternal flames that lined its walls. The heat was intense, even for a demon god like me. It was a testament to the raw, untamed power that resided within these walls. As I approached, the massive iron gates groaned open, allowing me entry. The guards, demons of flame and shadow, bowed their heads in reverence, their fiery eyes flickering as I passed.

- Do you really need an answer to this question? “I heard that the Forest of the Damned has a Keeper,” Yarsi said slowly. “Not a human, not an undead, a soulless, indifferent creature, moving freely across Reeta, and able to calmly cross the Border. The Guardian has the power to intervene in everything that happens in this forest and next to it. Thousands of people prayed to him for salvation, but he never helped anyone, no one came back ... And you pulled me out only because I killed Alato and became his heir. - The keeper? I? Matter shrugged. - Yes, I watch Reeta, but I'm not in it all the time. And the fact that I was there when the undead attacked you is just an accident.

And beside the fire stood a figure cloaked in obsidian robes, their face hidden. “I wondered when the flame-child would come,” the figure said, voice neither male nor female. “But I did not expect you to come alone.” Isabella stepped forward, cautious. “Who are you?” “I am what remains. The Keeper. The Womb of Flame.” “The Elders said nothing of you.” “The Elders forgot many things when they chose fear over memory.” She circled the heart-fire, watching it flicker in rhythm with her own pulse. “You watched everything,” she said. “You could have stopped it.”

The show displayed people in spirits' and demons' costumes and there were blazing fire dancers. "Woooo!" Aiko shrieked when the dancers rubbed the demon masks on the audience for added terror. It was chaotic and fun. “I’m too tired. I’ll just buy something at the store, meet me there after the show.” Aiko worriedly followed. “Let’s go too.” They were just lazily going with the flow of the crowd when Kalli shifted his attention to her. “Where are we gonna meet her?” “I think she said mart.” “But I can’t see Goo.”

My pulse pounded in my chest, but my feet stayed firmly rooted, and when it spoke, its voice was like a crackling fire, deep and resonant, echoing through my bones. "You have summoned me, bearer of the flame," it said softly, focusing on me. "I didn't summon anyone," I said, my voice shaken but adamant. My palm clenched around the pendant, its warmth providing a lifeline in the face of this creature's intimidating presence. "Who—what—are you?" The being tilted its head, causing flames to flicker. "I am the Keeper of the Eternal Flame, the overseer of decisions and outcomes. You released my power, and now you must face the consequences."
