///City of Gods Part I - Era 2000 BC - Legend of Ancients/// (Closed)

"Rune you stay with Kaylay... Me and Aturok will go to check it out." Silvian explained and then ran into the woods. it was one thing after another. After a nice long run, Sivlian found him self standing in front of a large wooden poll with a skull sitting on top of it. The skull was not human but more animal.. in fact... I look a awfully like a canine head, worse yet... it was big, and possibly Daemarian.

Lightning struck down not a few steps away from Silvian, the bright colorfull lights etched a symble in the ground as a shape begane to manafest it'self. The shape was that of A wolf Daemon, female and once the lgihtning had stopped dancing it became quit obvias as to who it was. Rika stood up from her crouched position, dusting dirt off of her Elder robes, she streached her neck and yawned. " so it actually worked..." Rika said, amazed that she was able to escape the lights. " but the stars say that it is a few days after the lights...You there, guardian? how long has it been since the stars had fallen?" Rika said stareing at Silvian. Rika seemed rather calm in her current situation, and wouldnt have been the least bit surprised that she had gotten out a little bit later then expected.

((OOC: sorry Mn for the bad spelling but word has crashed on me...))

Aturok walked up closer to the skull looking at it "whos skull do you think it is?" he said looking over at silvian then back at the skull as polara walked upto it looking at it curiously as well as Aturok looked at them "is it a warning...perhapes to keep someone out?"

"Look there.. That looks like blood!" Silvian said pointing to the ground where there was several splatters of blood around. Then something caught his eyes, a necklace with e white crystal pendant laid on the ground, partial covered in dirt. It was Shara's guardian pendant. "Shara was here! We have to proceed forward!" Silvian picked it up from the ground and then went further into the woods. Not to far away he could see black smoke in sky and the scent of burning in the air shortly after, another explosion sound.

when Aturok seen the smoke he ran in that direction as fast as he could but keeping pace with silvian as he looked over at silvian "i hope shes ok..."it wasnt long til they approached where the smoke was from as aturok hide to keep out of sight and looked around to see what was the deal

Rexus aproached the aria next to Aturok, strangly enough for a demi Human he was sniffing the ground and getting a feel for the scent of the aria. Rexus stood up and grabbed his bow. "we should Tread lightly friends...there is death nearby..." Rexus stood up and followed.

Max blended in with the shadows...he was near by where Silvian was and his red left eye took in the diffrent elements of the people nearby. 'Max...I urge you to turn around...' Max's golemn said from nearby. " and I also told you that What I do tops what you do..." Max silently watched as Silvian and the rest of the group followed. Max had his hood up, and his staff was out.

There before them was a large village with a temple in the farthest side of it, and in the center of the village was a large bonfire. Sitting on a throne on top of the temple was a female panther Daemon and all around in this village was humans worshiping her. And sitting at the foot of this temple was a large black vigerage but unlike the others that were seen controlled by the sayons this one has eyes that did not look like death and decay, but instead filled with life. And parts of its leathery black skin it had red jewels that glowed. Silvian wondered what kind of vigerage it was, unlike the others, it looked intelligent and more powerful then a normal vigerage. It would open its massive jaws and it would then shoot a blast of fire, that made large explosive noises towards the bonfire making it boom bigger and the panther daemon clapped her hands with entertainment.

Aturok crouched down hideing behind a brush and looked over at silvian "oh goody more bad guys...i thinkit would be best if we avoid there...she has a awful lot of followes down thier and that dosent look good with out odds...what you think?

Rexus crouched low to the ground, his bow was at his side immidiatly. Rexus watched the Daemon caefully. Rexus was a natural Ranger, he was a friend to Nature and if he killed an animal he honord it by not wasting anything. Rexus was a stealthy person at nature, perhaps a genetic trait from his mother on the daemon side of the family. “there honnoring her...as a god..” Rexus said silently. He closed his eyes and reached into the minds of some of the humans, reading there thoughts meomerys and analizing the situation.


Maxwell pulled his hood up and watched as the humans worshiped her...his red eye went back to it's natural color as a plan formed withen his head. Maxwell stepped outside from his hideing place and bowed before the Daemon. “grettings you're Grace...” Max said takeing off his hood and revealing his face to her. He stood up and smiled. “ I am Magician Max, and I could not help but see you're little party, I am only a Humble Human, an intruder if you will...but I have a survice to offer you as my name might explain...I am a magician, and would like to show you 'my' Magic.” Maxwell smiled and bowed again. Truly the only reason he would want to do what he was doing was to get information...but first he would have to give to receave. If she did not have the information that he had desired than Max would part...thanking her for her hospitality.

The Daemon being worshiped stood up and stared at Maxwell. "Ah another human.. Another magician... I have seen many magic young one..." She stopped and sniffed the air. "And would your friends too be Magicians? Will they too be joining you?"She said being able to catch the scent of Silvian, Aturok, and Rexus who were hiding.

Aturok as he thought he heard a sound her turned around seeing polara had unsummoned and he picked up the scent of some of the humans trying to sneak up on them and he lookied over at silvian "what are we going to do?...are we going to defend ourselves?"

"let us just try to play this smoothly... We have no idea what it is there doing... let alone.. we are the ones trespassing are we not?" Silvian stood up with hands raised, as a few men with spears came and had them pointed at them. Silvian slowly walked out into the clearing were Maxwell was. He also continued to keep his human form up, but he could tell that the Daemon female already knew that he was Daemon also. It was just a thing with Daemons, they could normally tell a Daemon in human form from a group of humans no matter what. Maybe it was in the way they acted differently from humans, and perhaps the hair color that was Normally always white in human form gave it away. Ether way, a Daemon just normally knew. (Key words.. Normally.)

Aturok put his hands up as well in his humanform and walked out next to silvian careful to not look like a threat to the men as they surrounded them and the man who apeared to be the group leader walked up to silvian who looked more like leader material and lowred his spear "who are you..you are tresspassers you will come before our leader..she will decide your fate"

"Hmmmmm You are like me.... accept.. for the man there..." She said referring to maxwell. "I am Fral... I am the Goddess of these people... You will show me respect as long as you are here. We are celebrating a wondrous day. So my loyal servants of worship, please make my guests comfy. Tonight we feast!" They all lowered there spears, and listened to what there Supposed Goddess had to say. She walked past Aturok, and placed a hand on his chest and looked at him like a peice of meat, and the looked at Silvian, eyeing him the same way. "I Wonderus day indeed..."

Aturok watched her he had no intentions of disrespecting her and started to be creeped out getting a strange vibe from her and turned and watched her eyeing up silvian then looked at silvian hopeing he was going to say something wise and guardianish to her to maybe help the situation "we could use some rest.."

"No that is not necessary... We should leave, we had no intention on trespassing.. Aturok.. let... Go?" Suddenly there were people bringing food to them. "No don't touch me..." Silvian hissed, not meaning to be rude, but he wanted no Human contact. The least thing he wanted right now is to also be considered a god. The situation had to be taken delicately. He did not want to piss off the followers of Fral, nor cause a war with Fral, but he did not want there exposure to the people to mistake them as gods ether. "No I really must insist that you stay for the night.." Fral explained. "Tonight is a great celebration... You two are perfect... As for the Demi-human.. he can be scrap food.." She said smirking, as the people were touching Aturok and Silvian, making it no point of having there illusion up. But the people seemed unaffected by there true appearances. "What is the meaning of this?! What is this celebration!?" Silvian asked, nearly cursing trying to push the people away but they kept rubbing there hands on him, pushing Grapes, and other various fruits to them as well as drinks and other meals, as well as some wanting to massage them and seemingly, pet them. They did the same too Rexus, as for Maxwell, they seemed to carry lack of interest for him. "Today is the celebration, where the people here have gathered me a various selections of treats for me... You four making a appearance to me.. more specifically you three who are not human... just made the selection more interesting..."

Aturok looked around at te food scared to eat any of the food they offred to upset silvian as he thought to himself how he could understand ow one would like to pose as a god and put his hand up to them refuseing them "no...im fine thank you.....what selections are you talking about and what does it have to do with us?" he said looking at Fral

She nipped at Aturok, with a revealed set of feline teeth at him. "My treats... and what a fine snack you will be.." She walked away and sat on her throne. People continued to shove food towards Aturok. This time it was Bread, and even flowers were offered by some of the local woman. The Vigerage no longer blazing fire, looked at them very closely. It was defiantly on Silvians thoughts, this Vigerage was very different from other Vigerage. Although it was Vigerage by appearance, but had smooth instead of leathery skin, and actual eyes, and looked much more of a living creature and such, a much healthier looking beast, and intelligence behind it, he wondered if it was even a Vigerage at all. Still he continued to speculate. "Fral... enough of these games.. I am a Guardian... And what you are doing here is wrong..." Silvian finally spoke up. Fral sighed as if getting bored. "Guardian this and Guardian that.. You Guardians really need new materiel... That Badger and Wolf had already made there attempt to show me the errors of my ways... You see as long as I am here, these people are safe from King Tanar.... These people worship me, and by all intense and purposes... I am there Goddess... Even more then that... you Guardians vowed to not interfere with the lives of humans... where as I... intervene to help protect what you Guardians have a oath to avoid... So spare me the lectures.... or I may have to jump ahead and have you for the main course... " Fral spoke and then eyed Aturok smacking her lips Silvian growled a bit, but he found it hard to seem intimating around the humans that seemed to already idol them and touched them, which strangely felt very comforting and addictive like a drug. The way they seemed to give them attention.

"oh i dont think so...theres no way in hell im going to be sombodys meal...especially to a complete stranger he growled showing his teath to the humans snaraling at them to get them to back away"

"Oh your no fun... I would love to sink my teeth into you... So feisty.... It is time.... I think we waited long enough.... Prepare the Black Prisims!!" She shouted and many of the village people bowed before her, and all around the village they places pulls with a black crystal on top that started to glow the moment they were put in place. "A little something I borrowed from the Sayons... A Black Prism negates all spiritual power.... That means our elemental abilities... You wont be needing this..." She said no longer on her throne as she walked passed Silvian and yanked off pendant. "These here are the only things that allow you to have your power when a Black Prism is present... but with out them your Succumb. to its dark aura.... Now... bring out the other candidates..." She yelled, and pretty soon, the villagers carried cages, made of Bones, and inside them were varius Daemons, some unconscious while others desperately tried to get out, but could not., The bone cages were well built and with the black prisms in place, they were unable to use there powers. Unless as Fral said, they had a elemental Fragment which only Guardians had... "Glats!!" Silvian cursed, no longer being able to use his power here, and watched as she walked away with the pendant. He would go after her, but the humans made it difficult to get near. Even the ones that Aturok Growled at, they only continued to touch. Silvian suddenly noticed that Shara was in one of the cages unconscious, while in another there was Kon, and he looked rather bored in the cage but perked up when he noticed Silvian and Aturok was there. "Here is how it is going to be... You have to Woo me..." Fral said. "Wait.. What?!" Silvian suddenly looked puzzled. "I will pick two at a time, and you will duel... I want to see those muscles.... Then I will choose my snack... in fact.. they will be my main course... this is a ceremony I choose my Mate!" Fral said smirking. "Uh.. your what!?" Silvian looked dumbfounded.

Aturok yelped and looked at Fral with a puzzled look then looked at silvian as he thought to himself how insanne the concept is annd also how screwed he was no haveing any try combat experience he looked over at the others in the cage "have you truely let all this power go to your head?...no...i will not fight my brothers for a unjust cause...and the fact i am not a guardian with a lack of fighting experince its like asking a bug to fight a beast..."

"It is okay... I am not looking for any sort of winner... I just want to see some muscles..." She smirked.. Meanwhile


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"No way... No way... I will not go any further!" Rune stopped in front of the poll with the Skull. "This is Fral Territory!" "But they came this way, you friends could be in trouble, they have been gone for a long time." Kaylay said patting him on the back a bit. "I know... Just.... Fral... she puts a bad taste in my mouth..." He suddenly shivered and his hair stood up, and mere thought sickened him. "How bad could she be? She is another Daemon like you right?" Kaylay asked. "She is wicked.. Vile... She is a tormentor... She is the wicked of wicked... and evil spawn of what ever Glats is supposed to be..." Kaylay sighed. "Seriously though.. if your friends are in there, they need your help.. She can not be worse the Tanar..." She said walking past and going passed the poll. Where she made it to some bushes where she finally saw the village, and noticed some sort of ceremony thing was going on. Rune sighed and went to fallow her. "... Sometimes I bag to differ..." Rune said under his breath.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Prepare the battle Arena...." She shouted and then approached Aturok petting him. "How about this, This here is a Sayon Bracelet... it will boost the wearers strength.. if you think this is what you need, use it... But amuse me.... Do not try to run from me, or you will end up Vigerage Food... For real...." She took a claw that was at first gently petting him, and then it cut part of his scalp as she slipped him the Sayon Bracelet. She then walked away as a fire ball formed in her hand, and she shot it at several large torches surrounding the arena. It was clear that she must have some sort of elemental fragment to be able to still use her power. That or there was some other secret she wanted no one to know.

Aturok sighed and placed his hand over the bracelet and walked to one side of the arena and stood thier waiting for it to start if they wanted a fight he would give them one for show but he would refuse to win as he watched her walking away from him he throught to himself how he wouldent mind leting his anger out on her in a fight

"surly you must be Joking?" Rexus said scratching the top of his head at the very thought of Silvian and Aturok battling it out...then it was the fact that even 'he' had to pertisapate in this ritual...and with Rexus's elemental ability, and without his sword...A hand to hand fight would not go best in his favor.

--

Max scowled and swatted the humans away from him, he pulled his hood back over his head and kepeed silent. 'why the hell do they always have to interfere!' Max cursed to himself for his dumb luck. He could feel his eyes going red again in agitation as the humans squabled around him...there constant bickering was like ticks to him...Max refused to give them attention...he also refused to show acknowledgment to Silvian and Autorocks presence. then there was frail...perhaps a little more crazier then Max had previously thought...then again...this little squable could prove his worth...and to be honest Max wasnt at all afraid of frail...so it was by now surprise that Max would force himself into the challange...after all Max was far from human...even if he looked like one. " I will fight if none shall!" Max said, calling over the crowd

"I think ill have you two start.. " As she picked out Silvian. "I think it be interesting too see which of the two of you would win... It will be quite amusing.." She said as the shoved Silvian into the arena. "Oh no I think not..." Silvian said trying to get out, but suddenly heard the loud grumbling coming from the vigerage. He could not tell if it had growled or if it was its stomach. "If you want to try to leave be my guest... Razul here has not had a good meal in a while... He likes his food feisty as well... something about the way the blood flows when he chases his prey down and rips into them...." She snickered. "I call fourth your mighty power, oh spirits of the rain and water, king of the seas and Ocean, Come fourth and weave together your energy into a form of strength, I give you a Name Coragem, The king of the Sea!" Silvian shouted, but nothing happened. Fral only stared and yawned. "You can not use your power unless you have this..." Fral said, leaning on her side sitting in the throne, leaning her head on her hand, that rested on the arm of the throne and with the other hand swinging Silvians Pendant around. "Im getting bored..." The villagers started moving frantically, pointing spears at them around the arena. One managed to just prick Silvian in the leg. "Hey watch where your pointing that thing..." Silvian snarled. He then looked over to Aturok. "Give her a show?" Silvian sighed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"She has not changed at all... She still looking for a mate..." Rune sighed. "A what?" Kaylay asked. "Nothing... But it looks like Silvian and Aturok are fine... " What do you mean fine, they look like there going to tear each others limbs apart.. What did she do to them? Did she brain wash them and turned them against each other!?" She asked staring. "Well.. you could say she has needs... too needy for my blood..." Rune sighed. "Oh it looks like we need to have a woman to woman chat.." Kay said, which was first time rune saw her look angry. "Oh no... She Daemon, she will burn you to a crisp as she is a Fire Adept... Why does she have a Vigerage?! What kind of Vigerage is that!?" Rune suddenly noticed the Vigerage next to Frals throne. "Thats new... Wait... Is that... Her new Golem!?" Rune gasped in surprise. "New... Golem?" Kay asked.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I am not interested in humans..." Fral said bored, and villagers began to shove maxwell into a bone cage.
