Chapter 29 - A WORD FROM THE PAST

In the east frontlines:

"Sir, it seems like the enemy is retreating." a solder from the army speaks, He spoke in a loud tone so he can be heard clearly by his general. His general, A tall man with broad shoulders, silver hair, He stood near a tent with his arms folded on his back, starring at the sky." Thank you solder, Tell the solders to keep camp. " The solder made his salute and stepped back, then he walked away. The general thinks "I don't know the reason behind their retreat, so I should not be too quick on driving back the forces. It would be wise to hold our ground here. " As he thinks another solder comes by, running towards him, He seemed tired, and he was a bit red on his face. And he speaks " Sir, I have big news, " He paused to catch his breath, the General looked at him, He listened attentively " The Luminary's HQ has been destroyed, and you would not believe who is responsible for it. It was the leader of the ACE worriers, The cursed child Asher pierce." The general quickly stood up and he went inside the tent.

Meanwhile in Ignisia :

Mole is brushing Terris feather around the soft spots on her neck. "We should go to Aquaria to look for my brothers." He paused and started thinking, " Wont I bring danger to them? I don't feel good about this. Maybe I should..." He's thoughts get disturbed by a huge thunderous sound a few paces from him, Terri starts to growl, facing the area that the explosion occurred, "what was that?" Mole surprised by the roar of the explosion; He got on top of Terri for a quick ride, Terri understood, she runs to the place where there is an explosion, at his arrival he finds the place full of smoke and fires, "Why is it always have to be fires?" He gets off Terri and run to the place burning with fires, The buildings around were catching fire, it was by luck that the supplies have not caught fire, so Mole rushed to extinguish the fires that were running wild. "Honestly what caused this fire?" Mole runs to the centre of the fire, and he make a strange martial arts stance. " Total concertation, extinguish." at that moment the flames die down and the smoke get cleared. "This is strange what's happening here? and where is everyone?" he looks around and see no sign of a single person, the at that moment he realises, Terri has vanished to thin air. "What's happening here? Terri where are you?" He runs around the area he's in and no sign of Terri anywhere, He calls her out over and over again, Running around the tower at the centre of Ignisia . After some time, he gives up running around looking for Terri. Then he sits down and ask himself "Where could everybody be?" At that moment a weird sensation comes to him, it was like something hitting his spine. From then it went to his brain, everything felt weird, and he began to see the sky that once blue turn to black instantaneously, He wondered " what's going on? this is weird." he turns his head left and right, what he saw was darkness. 

"Mor...s..ar " A voice comes to Mole's head, Mole could not understand what was going on, so he shouts out loud." What did you say? is there anyone out there?" Moles voice echoes through the darkness. " Child of Thorn, The worlds Morning Star." Mole hears the voice coming from different directions but this time he could clearly hear the words. At that moment a green light appears right in front of him. slowly the light start taking shape, then a man wearing old robes with a long white beard, holding a staff as long as his body and tall he stood," We finally meet, Mole." Mole stood there shocked." wow old how do you do that? can you teach me how to make an entrance like that?" The old looks at him with a smile " My name is Verdani Asher Lort, I'm a version of my past self. "

Mole wondering what he means by a version of his past self. "Old man, what do you want from me?"

Asher Lort: I don't have much time, Mole I'm here to let you know that the path that destiny will lead you, is a painful one...

Mole: look here old man, I'm patient enough to listen to your speeches, so can you make everything short.

Asher Lort: Okey Mole, Theodorus is coming, and by destiny you will end this war.

Mole: I normally have confidence in this type of staff, but do you think I'm invisible?

Asher Lort: Your actually not weak Mole, you have allies, it might not seem like it now, but everything will make sense. If this is the right time. everything is in place for you all you have to do is start your journey.

Asher Lort start to emit green light.

Mole: your body is glowing again, are you going to vanish?

Asher Lort: yes, Mole i am about to vanish, and one last thing, say hello to Emeralok for me.

Mole looks at Asher Lort as he disappears with the green light and the darkness that filled the sky began to vanish, Mole suddenly comes back to his senses, and he sees himself brushing Terri. "Huh? what's ging on here, Was everything just a dream?" Oarkborn comes to Mole "So where are you heading from now?" 

Mole: Hey Oarkborn do you believe in destiny?

Oarkborn: Do you?
