SHAPE TOWN

The two royal princes took a bath and have a change of clothing then they came down stair and met Benjamin and Ryn in the sitting room (sited) talking to some guards standing in front of them.

Benjamin saw the two royal princes and discarded the conversation he was having with the guards. Benjamin stood up and went to the two royal princes.

''Now you both are looking good'' said Benjamin (with a smile) to the two royal princes on getting to them.

''Thanks to your great hospitality'' said Ramsay (with a smile) to Benjamin.

''You have a big house'' said Noah to Benjamin as he looked around the house.

''If you say so. It belongs to my forefather'' said Benjamin.

''It must be old'' said Noah.

''Way old than you could ever imagine. Well I want you both to come with me to the town so I can show you around'' said Benjamin.

''Are you saying you want to take us on a tour around your town?'' asked Ramsay.

''Yes and you will love it, you will also find out love resides in our town or you don't want to?'' asked Benjamin.

''No, we will love to see your town'' said Noah.

Benjamin touched the two royal princes' shoulders and said ''I promise you, you won't want to go back home after touring around my town''.

Ramsay and Noah smiled.

''You flatter too much big brother'' said Ryn to Benjamin.

''Why don't you come with us Ryn'' said Benjamin to Ryn.

Ryn stood up and said to Benjamin ''am going into town, why don't you tag along''.

''Let go guys'' said Benjamin to the two royal princes.

Benjamin and Ryn with the four guards (guarding Ben) took Noah and Ramsay around the town. The tour around the town lasted till night then they all returned home to have dinner. After having dinner they had a lovely conversation before they all went to sleep in their rooms.

Noah tried sleeping but couldn't then he went outside the house and sat down somewhere looking at the sky. As Noah was sited looking at the sky, he heard a sound coming from around the house. Noah tried not to mind the sound but the continuous noise from the sound made Noah trace the sound to where it was coming from. Noah traced the sound to where it was coming from and saw Ryn trying to get out of the house through the window.

''Do you need help?'' Noah asked Ryn (with a smile) making Ryn notice him.

''Yes. If you care to help'' said Ryn and they both laughed.

Noah helped Ryn out of the house through the window, they both stood in front of each other. ''Can I ask why you tried to get out of the house through the window instead of the front door?'' Noah asked Ryn.

''Because the guards guarding my door won't let me out'' said Ryn.

''Why won't they?"' asked Noah curiously.

''Long story which am not interested in sharing'' said Ryn.

''Okay. I guess you are heading somewhere if you sneaked out of the house through the window?'' asked Noah.

''Follow me if you want to know'' said Ryn.

''Are you sure?'' asked Noah.

''Stay then'' said Ryn and began to walk away.

''Wait'' said Noah as he followed her.

Ryn took Noah to a waterfall, Noah was astounded upon seeing the waterfall. "It's beautiful right?'' Ryn (smiling) asked Noah.

''It's more than beautiful, it..it magnificent'' said Noah smiling.

''Come with me'' said Ryn, then Noah followed her.

Ryn took Noah to a cave and they went inside the cave and came out at the edge of the other entrance of the cave which was beside the water falling from the top and not too far from the river on the ground.

Noah and Ryn sat down at the edge of the cave looking at the water, the river, and the moon that shone on the waterfalling and river making it look lovely.

''Do you like the sight?'' Ryn asked Noah.

''I love the sight, the way the moon shines on the water made it look very lovely'' said Noah with a smile.

''Yes. Um......I noticed the way you looked at the waterfall when you first saw it, you looked.....'' said Ryn.

Ryn was cut short of words as Noah cut in ''this is my first time seeing a waterfall. Have only heard about it in books, and when I saw it, its beauty is more than what I read in the books''.

Ryn smiled.

''Why did you smile?'' asked Noah.

''Nothing. Where are you from?'' asked Ryn.

''Am from Axrax, am sure you will have heard about it'' said Noah.

''You are wrong. I don't know Axrax and have never heard about it'' said Ryn.

''That's new'' said Noah.

''Have never left my hometown ever, my big brother never let me go anywhere and always has guards follow me around saying he has to protect me from what killed our parents'' said Ryn.

''Am sorry about your parents'' said Noah.

''It okay'' said Ryn.

''I guess this waterfall explains why you were trying to sneak out of the house through the window'' said Noah with a smile.

''Maybe'' said Ryn.

''Why is it still a maybe or you are some kind of a village villain'' said Noah with a smile.

Ryn smiled and said ''still not interested in telling you''.

''Okay'' said Noah.

''So what does Axrax where you are from look like?'' asked Ryn.

''Axrax is the biggest and largest Kingdom of all other kingdoms'' said Noah.

''They are other kingdoms too?'' asked Ryn surprised.

''Yes, four others apart from Axrax, they are Lythridite, Samuzia, Micapus, and Domitrus. But Axrax is the most beautiful kingdom, its palace is very big that you could get lost if you don't know your way around it and it's very lovely, I wish you could see it for yourself'' said Noah.

''Maybe one day'' said Ryn.

Just then they both heard singing coming from inside the river.

''Does that happen often'' asked Noah.

''No, this is the first time am also hearing this'' said Ryn.

''So what happening now?'' asked Noah as they both stood up confused.

''I don't know, we should get out of here now'' said Ryn.

They both turned back to leave but stopped as they were shocked on seeing large water coming through the cave. Ryn and Noah (scared) wondered what to do as they both stared at the water coming their way.

''What should we do now?'' Noah asked Ryn.

''I don't know but I suggest we jumped inside the river. Can you swim?'' asked Ryn.

''Yes I can'' said Noah.

''Then jump'' said Ryn and jumped inside the river, Noah also did.

As they both jumped into the river they both tried to swim out of the water but they couldn't because the water was pulling them down. Ryn and Noah struggled to swim out of the river but they kept drowning, the water kept pulling them under and under till they could no longer see the sky and the moon.

    All of them could not believe what they had just heard. It sounded like their ears were having a fault, which made Hawk ask Esther to confirm if they all heard him right. He said, "Did you just say that any one of us could be the chosen one?".However, it was Ramsay who answered, "Yes. Esther is right. I being the Great King doesn’t make me the chosen one. The power inside the crystal was not made for royal blood, but for the chosen one. It was meant for whoever the crystal itself chooses.""And how did both of you suddenly know that, after we all believed that only Ramsay could be the chosen one?" asked Kylie, looking at both Ramsay and Esther.It was also the way the others were looking at them, which meant one of them had to reply. Esther said, "It became obvious. There’s no way the chosen one would have to go through so much to get to the crystal. The crystal wouldn’t make the one it has chosen fail multiple times as a test to reach it.""So you’re saying there was no test?", aske

  • THE DOUBT WITHIN

    After breakfast that morning, the group gathered to discuss what had happened. The conversation quickly turned to Ramsay’s fight with the figure — and more specifically, what had caused his skill to fall apart during the battle.Ramsay, however, could not tell them the truth about his sword. He had to keep that secret buried. So instead, he told them a lie. He said his faltering had nothing to do with his skills — that the figure was simply stronger, faster, and far beyond his expectations.The others weren’t convinced. Only Esther and Dah remained silent, while the rest questioned his words openly. They reminded Ramsay that they had all seen him fight five of those same figures — and he had defeated them with skill that seemed almost divine. Yet against a single opponent, he had struggled and barely survived. They wanted to know why.Ramsay held his ground. He said coolly, “Maybe it’s because you weren’t the ones fighting it. That figure carried the strength of the five combined — ma

  • THE CHOSEN ONE TRAIL

    Esther was confused by the sword soul’s words. She couldn’t understand why it had said that the power within the Light Crystal did not belong to Ramsay. The very idea felt absurd to her — Ramsay was the Great King, the only person capable of defeating the magical beings guarding the path to the crystal. That alone proved he was meant for it.But Ramsay’s reaction was completely different from hers. Instead of anger or disbelief, he suddenly burst into laughter. Both Esther and the sword soul turned toward him, puzzled. Nothing was amusing about what the soul had just said, yet Ramsay laughed freely, his voice echoing through the vast, silent chamber.They let him laugh until he finally calmed down. Then Esther, still uncertain, asked him what was so funny. Ramsay replied with a grin, still half-laughing, “Don’t tell me you actually believe what he said?”.Esther gave him a questioning look, silently asking why she shouldn’t. Ramsay straightened, his tone turning sharp as he said, “Bec

  • THE SOUL HOME

    Esther tried to understand what was wrong with the sword, but all her efforts were in vain. She could still feel the soul within it and called out to it again and again — yet no matter what she did, the sword gave no response.She tried to draw the soul into the mortal world, but it refused to appear. The sword remained silent. Even when she attempted to reach into its subconscious, there was nothing — only an empty stillness.Esther couldn’t help but wonder what had happened to it. Why had the sword gone completely silent? Why had it chosen not to answer either her or Ramsay, even though they could both still sense its presence?There was nothing more she could do. But before giving up entirely, Esther decided to try one last thing — to go to Ramsay.It felt like electricity surging through his body, and then Ramsay opened his eyes to find himself in a place he never could have imagined.Ramsay was seated on his father’s chair, in front of the great table surrounded by chairs. Ramsay

  • THE SILENCE OF THE SWORD II

    It didn’t go as Ramsay had planned. He’d intended to end the fight using the skills he’d learned while the sword’s soul had been in control — the flawless rhythm, the effortless precision, the way his body had once moved like the sword itself.However, without the soul guiding him, Ramsay couldn’t replicate that flow. He fell short — and that wasn’t his only problem.Ramsay's defenses began to crumble. The dark figure’s speed suddenly increased, its strikes sharper, heavier, and far more calculated than before. Ramsay could barely keep up.Then came the hit — a brutal left fist to his face. The blow sent blood spraying from his mouth, a tooth flying, his nose cracking under the force. Pain exploded through his head, and for the first time, Ramsay truly understood: the strength behind that punch wasn’t ordinary.The figure’s power… was the combined might of all five men he had already defeated.Ramsay now knew what he had to do. It wasn’t enough to just avoid and block the figure’s swo

  • THE SILENCE OF THE SWORD

    No matter how many times Ramsay called to the soul of his sword, all he got was silence.He could still feel their connection pulsing faintly inside him — alive, unbroken — yet the sword’s soul refused to answer. It baffled him. Why now? Why the sudden silence?For a fleeting moment, Ramsay wondered if the sword’s soul was afraid of this opponent, but Ramsay quickly dismissed that thought. The sword feared nothing.Still, there was no time to think. No time to wonder. The dark figure before him lunged again — swift, relentless. Ramsay barely brought his blade up in time to parry the first strike.If the sword would not help him, then he would have to end this fight by himself.However, fighting the figure alone was far harder than he expected. The power, the speed, the precision — everything about the figure was overwhelming. It was as though the five men Ramsay had just defeated had fused into one being. Every strike carried their combined strength and rage.Ramsay fought to stay ali
