2022-12-20 17:27:44Queen Lindsey continued ''After Damon took Ethusa to the palace, Marcelos was heartbroken and cried for days. Marcelos said to himself that he will not accept what Damon did and that he must take Ethusa back no matter what it takes.
Marcelos went to Damon and told him to give back the dragon gene power and Ethusa but Damon said no and that Ethusa belong by his side not his. Marcelos got angry and challenged Damon to a fight in five days and that whosoever win the fight will have Ethusa and the dragon gene, Damon accepted the challenge.
I tried to talk Damon out of it and that he should give back the dragon and dragon gene power to Marcelos but he said no that Marcelos challenged him and he will show Marcelos what he is made of. Marcelos's father also tried to talk Marcelos out of it but Marcelos said no that he must have what it his making his father disowned him.
Marcelos and Damon went to the highest mountain to fight and Marcelos won but Damon cheated by using the dragon gene power to defeat Marcelos.
Marcelos fell from the top on the mountain and we all thought he died, we mourned him and forget about him, not knowing Marcelos survived wounded and was taken by the witches called the Revengers. The revengers took Marcelos and cured him, they made Marcelos powerful by sacrificing their life in return that Marcelos should rule the world that was taken from them.
When Marcelos returned back, Damon already become the King of Axrax and Marcelos's family was no where to be found. Damon killed them when Marcelos's father stood up against Damon with some group of wizards that Damon took what belong to his son and killed him.
Marcelos became angry and waged war on all the five kingdoms and terror ruled the night and day. The sun stopped shinning in the sky and darkness ruled the sky. The people began to live in fear when they hear Marcelos name and with his armies of undead, Marcelos began to attack each kingdom.
Knowing there was no way they could stopped Marcelos, the other Kings submitted to Marcelos. But King Damon, my people, the Varlyn and their Nylins, the wizards and the light army fought against Marcelos and his armies because he had become an evil and tyrant that must not be allowed to exist.
We won the battle against Marcelos and Marcelos was put to an eternal sleep after his powers was taken from him but lot of lives were lost. Jack and his wife, and my people also lost their lives.
But before Marcelos was put to sleep he cursed Damon that he shall never find peace and rest till the day he died and so did it happened.
Damon began to act weird and see everyone has his enemies and conspired against him to take Ethusa from him, he also said Marcelos always haunt him in his dream. Damon first banished the shape-shifters from the kingdoms saying they plotted treason against his throne, then he built a castle very far away from the kingdoms.
Damon took the light crystal and put it in the castle saying it is useless and doesn't has any power since he wasn't worthy to wield it power when he wanted to fight against Marcelos, then he told Ethusa to guard the light crystal and never leave the castle.
I was the only one that knows about everything Damon did, i am also the only one that has the map to where the castle is located because it was my people that built the castle. Knowing i knows everything and also have the map, Damon cursed me and my people never to be able to walk on land again and shall live in water for the rest of our lives never to grow old. He made us an immortal living the lives of a mermaid, so no one will know where the castle is or own Ethusa''.
''Wait, with all what you just said, you mean my kind once lived in kingdoms not a town and my father sided with King Damon to betray their friend'' said Ryn to queen Lindsey.
While Noah thought about all what queen Lindsey said.
''Yes and it cost him and his wife their life'' said queen Lindsey.
''This can't be true'' said Ryn (unhappy).
''It's the truth Ryn'' said queen Lindsey.
''What you told us wasn't we learned and heard about King Damon'' said Noah to queen Lindsey.
''Damon was a King of Axrax which made him a great King so they had to made up lies about him so he won't be seen as a bad King throughout generations'' said queen Lindsey.
Noah walked close to queen Lindsey and said to her ''i don't believe you. I think all what you just said are nothing but lies and you are trying to trick me''.
''And what makes you think all what i said are lies?'' asked queen Lindsey.
''In your story, King Damon is a betrayal and a thief which can't be. King Damon was a good King not a bad King you paint him to be'' said Noah annoyed.
Just then people walked through a door into the room. Noah and Ryn looked at the people as they came in and as they stood scattered around the room looking at the both of them.
''All what i told you is the truth Noah, nothing but the truth'' said queen Lindsey to Noah.
''I have never heard of someone who is an immortal before and take a look at your people, they don't look more than a thousand years old. I also don't believe you all once walked the land, what if you are mermaid pretending to be human so i could free you'' said Noah.
''Then ask her (Ryn) if immortals are real'' said queen Lindsey.
''What does she (Lindsey) mean?'' Noah (confused) asked Ryn as he looked at her.
''I don't know what she is talking about'' said Ryn to Noah.
''She is lying. She is a shape-shifter and everyone in their town'' said queen Lindsey.
''What even a shape-shifter?'' Noah asked queen Lindsey as he looked back at queen Lindsey.
''They are people that have the ability to change into any animal of their choice and they are immortals. Ryn is more than a thousand years old'' said queen Lindsey to Noah.
''You have got to be kidding right'' said Noah (confused) to queen Lindsey.
''No am not'' said queen Lindsey.
Noah looked at Ryn and said to her ''tell me what she said is not true''.
''It is the truth, that is who we are'' said Ryn.
''Oh merciful gods of our lands'' said Noah surprised and shocked.
''We don't grow old and don't die unless we are killed'' said Ryn.
''And you and brother didn't bother to tell us who you are'' said Noah.
''We had to keep it a secret so you won't be scared of us because that what people do when they know about us, they became scared of us'' said Ryn.
''Well i don't know if am scared right now but i don't know how my brother will feel when he hear this'' said Noah.
''You don't need to be scared of them they are friendly people and don't harm unless provoked'' said the queen Lindsey to Noah.
''You are telling him not to be scared when you are the one made him to be scared'' said Ryn (annoyed) to queen Lindsey.
''Okay, let me chill for some minute'' said Noah and closed his eyes.
Noah thought about everything queen Lindsey and Ryn said for some minutes as his eyes were closed. Noah opened his eyes, took a deep breathe and said to queen Lindsey ''okay, i have decided to believe everything you said. Can i ask why you brought us here?".
''To negotiate'' said queen Lindsey.
''Negotiate?'' asked Noah (confused).
''You have the dragon gene in you which is the reason why i called you a king because you are destiny to be a great King. You also have the potential to be able to wield the power of the Light crystal , and only you can lift our curse. If you promise to lift our curse, in exchange we will give you the map to the castle to find Ethusa'' said queen Lindsey.
Noah laughed and they all wondered why he laughed.
''Why did you laughed?'' asked the queen Lindsey.
''Because i don't have the dragon gene and i don't want to find Ethusa or want the map'' said Noah.
''You have the dragon gene in you i assure you that'' said queen Lindsey.
''And how did you know that?'' asked Noah.
''Why do you think Ethusa saved you, i guess you have no idea. Your magic has made the dragon gene manifest in you and you have change once, which means you are becoming a dragon slowly. To stop yourself from fully turning into a dragon you have to link with Ethusa'' said queen Lindsey.
Noah smiled and said ''stop saying funny things, that is impossible''.
Queen Lindsey stood up and walked to Noah. Queen Lindsey stood in front of Noah and said to him ''follow me, let me show you your true self''. Queen Lindsey lead the way and Noah followed.

THE TRIAL OF NOAH
After Kinsley lost, the chamber fell into a suffocating silence. No one spoke, yet the truth lingered in the air like a bitter taste: Kinsley hadn’t simply failed—he had been tricked.The others felt it. They had watched his trial closely, seen how the question cornered him with no clean answer, no true path to victory. The more they thought about it, the more it felt deliberate… as though the crystal had never intended to let him win in the first place.Whispers spread through the group—not spoken aloud, but sensed in glances, in tension, in the tightness of their breaths.Maybe Ramsay had been right all along. Maybe the crystal really didn’t want to help them. Maybe it was playing with them—offering slivers of hope only to snatch them away the moment anyone came close.The pattern seemed too clear now: Every trial looked winnable… until the final moment, where something twisted, shifted, or turned impossible. The crystal dangled victory like bait—and then denied them cruelly.Yet de
The Trial of Choice
Tracy could be seen sitting with the others who had faced their opponents and been defeated. She rested her back against the cold stone wall, seated next to Esther, allowing the healer to work her magic.As Esther’s magic wove over her, repairing the lingering effects of the trial, a heavy silence filled the chamber. No one spoke. Everyone seemed lost in thought, caught in the weight of unspoken fears. Their thoughts: "What if Ramsay was right? What if none of them was truly the chosen one? Could all their efforts to reach the crystal have been in vain?"Six challengers had already approached the crystal—and each had been defeated. The uncertainty pressed on the remaining challengers: could they reach the crystal without suffering the same fate? The thought lingered, unanswered, as no one dared voice it.Yet despite the doubts, they could not see another way. If they ever hoped to defeat Marcelos, they would need the power held within the crystal. Without it, there was no chance of s
TRACY TRIAL
Kylie’s eyes narrowed, blood and sweat blurring her vision, but her mind raced faster than ever. She feinted a jab to the left, then twisted low, spinning her body in a movement she rarely used.Her fist shot upward from below, a rising strike aimed for the mirror’s ribs—a combination of force and surprise. The mirror-Kylie hesitated longer this time, caught off guard by the unorthodox angle.Kylie didn’t pause. She flowed into a rapid succession of punches and elbows, striking with precision and unpredictability. For the first time, the conjured girl stumbled back, absorbing blows that should have been anticipated.A sharp cry escaped the mirror-Kylie, a sound Kylie had never expected. The clone’s defenses wavered. Kylie’s chest heaved, pain screaming through every muscle, but she pressed forward, relentless.The others watched, wide-eyed. Even Ramsay’s jaw tightened, knowing Kylie had finally found an opening.Kylie’s smirk was faint but real. For the first time, she felt the advant
KYLIE TRIAL
No matter how much Hawk tried, endured, or held on, he still couldn’t win. He couldn’t land a single point on the shadow. His sword never touched its body even once.Yes, his supernatural hearing helped him know when the shadow appeared, but that wasn’t enough to secure victory. The shadow’s skill was fierce—far more incredible than he had imagined. Because of that, he spent most of the fight defending, barely having a second to breathe.Hawk didn’t have the time to showcase his fighting skills at all, nor could he use his last resort technique. The shadow kept disappearing and reappearing unpredictably, forcing him to stay on constant defense. In the end, Hawk was defeated—wounded—before the shadow struck him hard enough to send him flying toward the others.His body was soaked in his own blood. With his healing ability blocked by the crystal, every cut the shadow left on him remained open, stinging and burning. He suffered wounds all over his body from the shadow’s blade.Now, Hawk
THE SHADOW TRIAL
Ragmus’s facial expression showed pure annoyance as he glared at the beast, now motionless, with the surrounding fire completely dead.Ragmus sat next to Esther, who held his hand while magically healing his wounds. Her injuries had also fully healed.Ramsay, seated beside Esther, couldn’t stop laughing. The others, standing nearby, couldn’t understand why, but Esther ignored him, and Ragmus, furious, didn’t even notice.Ramsay’s laughter grew irritating, prompting Lilia to kick him in the leg as she asked why he was laughing. That finally made him stop, then he asked, “Why wouldn’t I laugh? Don’t you all find it funny?”.The others simply scowled, which only deepened his disbelief. Ramsay continued, “Don’t you see the crystal playing with us?” With me, the crystal was straightforward—maybe out of respect for who I am. But what it did with Esther was the same as what it did with Ragmus. It gave them hope that they could win, that they could become the chosen one—a hope that reached a
TRIAL OF ENDURANCE
As the flames licked higher around Ragmus and the beast, the heat threatened to scorch the edges of his cloak. His grip on the spear tightened, knuckles white, every nerve on edge. The mirror beast crouched slightly, eyes glowing with a predatory focus that reflected Ragmus’s own determination. One misstep—into the fire, or under the claws of the beast—could be fatal.They moved in slow, deliberate circles, each testing the other, waiting for an opening. Ragmus’s mind raced, calculating, anticipating. This was not about striking first; it was about endurance. He had to survive.He reminded himself of the truth: the beast mirrored him perfectly. Every swipe of its claws, every flick of its tails, every sudden lunge was something he himself would do. To survive, Ragmus had to fight as he knew he would fight—defending, countering, and wounding with a spear he had never mastered. This was not a fight to dominate, but a battle to endure against himself.Ragmus shifted slightly, feeling the
