Gates Of Babylon Novels & Stories

I get a feeling she's trying to figure out where exactly we are, or perhaps, memorizing the road. Maybe she's hoping she'll have a chance to run. I feel so sorry for her naivety. She has no idea how secure she'll be when we get to Bloom Bazaar. Not a single second will I let her out of my sight. The tall, imposing gates finally come into view. They're staunch, supported on either side by a large stone pillar which becomes an eight-foot high perimeter surrounding the property that's positioned on a tall hill. On each pillar, a huge, scary griffin stands with their mouths open — and little cameras are hidden in them. As we neared the gates, I slow the car, my nerves short-circuiting all over a

"I was born here. But I never lived here." Julian glanced at her. "We don't have to do this now." But Alma shook her head. "We do. This is where they began to turn us into gods." Ground Level, The Gates of Jericho The facility rose like a monolith from the sand, scorched and corroded by time. Automated guns had long rusted into silence. The biometric gate no longer blinked, but Alma’s presence was enough. With a hiss, the massive steel doors parted. Julian followed her into the dark hallway, their boots echoing against ancient cement.

We halted, shielding our eyes from the overwhelming glow. As the light gradually dimmed, we opened our eyes to an astonishing sight. Before us stood a colossal gate, shimmering with an otherworldly light. Engraved upon it were symbols that seemed ancient and familiar, yet utterly foreign. Our gaze was drawn to a particularly prominent symbol at the gate's center – a symbol that mirrored the one found in the prophecy. It pulsed with an eerie light, casting long shadows that danced around us. Suddenly, the gate began to tremble, the symbol glowing brighter. An indescribable force pulled us towards it, the very air around us seeming to hum with energy. The ground beneath us shook, and a deafeni

*** Xander's POV *** The eastern gate of the Obsidian Citadel was a masterpiece of military fortification. Heavy, reinforced titanium-steel doors, thirty feet high, etched with thousands of overlapping defensive shield runes. To any normal army, it was an impassable wall. To me, it was just a monolithic server begging to be crashed.

It was the last barrier between Joana’s darkness and the fragile light of everything Lucy had come to love. And she would not let it fall. The first impact of the battering ram against the eastern gate reverberated through the entire estate like a thunderclap. The massive wooden doors shuddered, dust drifting from the stone arch overhead. A groan of terror escaped the defenders stationed nearby, but Gabriel’s voice cut through their fear. “Brace it!” he roared. Men rushed forward with heavy beams, wedging them against the gate, straining their bodies against the impact of the next blow. Wood splintered but held for now.

The house we hid within was on the main road, one leading straight ahead to a set of towering gates. Two pillars topped with a sun and moon sat on either side of the gates. The entire thing was made out of some kind of strange stone. There were veins of silver and gold embedded in the iridescent material. As the moonlight hit its surface, the colors within shifted and glowed. I’d never seen anything so beautiful, even if there were a handful of pale-eyed sentries pacing back and forth in front of it. “The sun rises in the east,” Azrael said, a wistful light sparkling within his eyes. “These gates were built to honor that, while the western ones honor the sunset. It’s been such a long time si

But I knew that beneath the surface, they sensed a force to be reckoned with. As we ventured into the night, the city lights cast an ethereal glow on our path. Under the captivating glow of the full moon, Mateo, Tony, and I made our way towards the imposing structure known as Babylon Tower. Its long, majestic silhouette loomed before us, constructed with sturdy brick stones that had withstood the test of time. As we approached, the tower seemed to exude an aura of mystery and power, drawing us closer with its irresistible allure. The moonlight filtered through the wide windows, casting ethereal rays across the grand hall within. The space was bathed in a soft, mesmerizing glow, lending an ot

Like something had convinced life to stay away. Then Eryx looked toward the cliffs. Then: "I don't like this." Then Valen nodded. Then: "Neither do I." The first sign appeared shortly before sunset. A city gate. Ancient. Massive. Carved directly into the mountainside. Then everyone stopped. Immediately. Because the gate should have been impossible. The structure was enormous. Larger than any city entrance they had ever seen. Covered in silver stone. Covered in symbols. Covered in time.

Viennashal Iminz Goddess of Peace and High Ruler of Galaxia Prime stood out on one of the many balconies of her palace as she gazed out at the city of Alterria. Buildings that stretched high into the clouds and shined bright of the sparkling metal crystal as old as the Realm. She watched the dozens of traffic lanes full of hovercraft and airspeeders making their way from one sector of Galaxia to another. She closed her eyes and for a moment tuned out all the sounds of the city, she concentrated on the beings within the palace. She quickly was able to place her eight royal handmaidens, her valiant protectors who had been trained since childhood to protect her.
