The Ancients World

Chapter 22: The adventure to Vedersfall IV

Now the meeting has changed topics to Fenrir. Not a lot is known about Fenrir outside of overworld and the top officials of the church of light. All the kings and queens here are going to receive information that others are not privy too, they want anything that could help protect their kingdoms. The first to speak is the queen of Felroa, Victoria Ulysses the V. Felroa is a country that has only had female rulers, and they have always had peace thanks to there wise leaders. "I want to know why you think having Fenrir on our plane of existence is a good idea." She is not the only one to question the logic of The Pope right now, many of the rulers that are at this meeting don't hold faith in The Pope's words at this point in time.

Many of the leaders are waiting for an answer. The Pope looks over to Saintess Lucy and opens his mouth with a request. "Will you please have the scribes bring Fenrir's legend from the Archives." Saintess Lucy understood what was being asked and contacted the war scribes with magic to bring the ancient book to the meeting room. The rulers look at each other skeptically with the attitude The Pope is taking.

Soon the scribes arrive and they hand a giant book to Saintess Lucy. She carries it to the table and lays it down. The Pope is the first one to speak about this old relic of the past. "This book is a record of all the feats of Fenrir since he became known to us. This book is over 4000 years old, it was created before the first war and survived the first war the dark ones waged." As he said that a deafening silence ran throughout the meeting room. None present knew of this except Saintess Lucy and The Pope.

He leans the book up and uses magic to hold it there. Soon he starts to flip pages, after almost reaching the end of the book he decides to stop. This is the story of Fenrir's battle against Arch-Demon Mammon. A magical voice began to talk reading lines from the book so everyone could listen.

"After the Holy Willow Tree saved Skoll, Fenrir pledged to always come to the aid of the fairy kingdom if they are ever in trouble. He tied his lifeforce to the Holy Willow Tree so he could know if it were ever in distress."

Many of the rulers are listening intently, others are having some of it written down so the church can no longer hide this secret. The magical voice continued reading to explain what everyone has been asking.

"The Arch-Demon of Greed Mammon had a personal goal in destroying the fairy kingdom because they refused the give up there princess, Lady Anna. Arch-Demon Mammon was so enraptured by her beauty that he decided to take her for himself. By any means necessary."

All of the rulers knew very little about the first great war. All that was really known about it was the dark ones grabbing power they couldn't control. The Almighty Father has ultimate authority over all creation in Ancients World. The dark ones wanted that power for themselves so they could each create they own version of a perfect world. That is what the legends say anyway. The Magical voice continues reading from the book.

"As Arch-Demon Mammon himself was leading the forces upon the fairy kingdom, the Holy Willow Tree called out to Fenrir for aid in this dire time. Fenrir is a god of incredible power and strength, when he arrived to the fairy kingdom a bloody battle was almost over. The Demons were the winning force, but Fenrir was never one to break his word."

At hearing those words they begin to have more faith in The Pope's claims. It is not unknown that the churches obsession with finding Michaels son has driven a wedge between the church and the kingdoms. They continue to listen as the epic tail spins.

"A great battle began with Fenrir all by himself against the army of the demon of greed. The battle was a slaughter on the demons side. They could not compete with Fenrir's might, soon Arch-Demon Mammon was the only one left. A battle that leveled half of the fairies kingdom and surrounding forest followed as the two fought to the death."

Nobody would have suspected that Fenrir would do something like this for someone or something other than himself. The rulers are now put at ease, some are even giving orders to there generals to tell them to leave Fenrir alone if they encounter him.

"As Arch-Demon Mammon was laying on the ground defeated, he uttered these words. 'If I cannot have princess Anna than nobody will!!!'. He yelled so all could hear him and he casted a curse using the last of his lifeforce. It was never intended for Fenrir, but for the Holy Willow Tree. In the end nobody won this battle and instead, everyone lost. The bond between Fenrir and the Holy Willow Tree was one of lifeforce. As the Holy Willow Tree was forced into sleep, so was Fenrir."

The history that was being hidden by the church has angered some, but they all understand the implications of the story. Now that the Holy Willow Tree has been revived so has Fenrir, and all of this was caused by the person they are looking for. The story of Fenrir concludes with the next entry.

"When the battle was over, both Fenrir and the Holy Willow Tree were already being affected by the curse. In a desperate attempt to save Fenrir the Holy Willow Tree sent him to a safe place where nobody would disturb his sleeping body. The following days the fairy kingdom rotted away from the inside. It is said one of divine origin will free both the Holy Willow Tree and Fenrir."

As the story concludes and the book closes, a sigh of relief is released by some. The Pope and the Saintess exchange a few words as others are doing so as well. "I am worried about that last line in the book. That wasn't there when I was studying Fenrir." They take a look at the closed book and have separate thoughts about it. "Well, an old relic such as this is capable of hiding things from us. The people who made it were incredibly powerful." The meeting continues on into the night and the rest of the people of Ancients World are talking about it.

In the real world Cera sleeps the night away as this is being discussed. Soon his alarm goes off and he gets up with a smile. Today is the day I get to sell my guild token. After today all my families money problems will disappear forever. We will get to move to a bigger house and live in peace for the rest of our foreseeable lives.

I get up to head downstairs and have breakfast. Mom and me are the only ones down here. I sit down across from mom and I can see the red in her eye's from crying a lot lately. "Are you doing okay mom?" Hailey and her are at war right now and I think this isn't going to be a quick one like it usually is.

She just pokes her food with her fork and doesn't look at me. "I'm okay Cera, just worried is all..." Parents don't get enough of the credit they should get. My mom and dad sacrificed everything to give us a good life. They gave up there futures and families to be together. They ask for nothing in return and receive not nearly enough thank you's from us.

I know just the thing to cheer her up though, I'm sure she will be brimming with happiness after I say this. "Today I get to sell my item that's worth millions!! We won't have to worry about money ever again!! What do you want to buy first mom!?!" I cheer loudly trying to convey my happiness to her. I then see her look at me with a face ready to start balling her eye's out. "I thought that would make you happy..." I watch her lower her head after I say that. I can see her face contort in pain. Her chin is quivering and tears are falling from her eye's.

I get up from my chair and I hug her from behind, as soon as I do she starts sobbing her eye's out. I think just letting her cry is a good idea for now. "I... *HICCUP!* don't know.... *SNIFFLE**HICCUP!* how you turned... *SNIFFLE**SNIFFLE* out so good.... *HICCUP!*HICCUP!* from us raising you!!! *SNIFFLE**HICCUP!*" My heart breaks hearing her say that. They tried there damnedest to provide a happy life for us. I just hug and rock her from side to side letting her cry. "You have... *HICCUP!* made me...*SNIFFLE**SNIFFLE* the happiest mom.... *SNIFFLE**HICCUP* in the whole world!!" She says that last part with a hiccupping voice full of happiness. I start to cry as well, it has always been a dream of mine to do this for my parents and now I can.

Soon she gets up and hugs me too. The top of her head doesn't even reach my chin. I just let her cry until its all out. She lets go of me and pulls away, I can see mascara smeared around her eye's. I look down on my shirt and there is more smeared there. She finishes wiping her eye's and begins to laugh. "Give me that, I'll wash it when I do laundry today." She is smiling rays of sunlight now and is in a much better mood. I take off my shirt and give it to her, she takes it to the laundry room and puts it with the rest. I head upstairs and put on a new shirt.

I head back downstairs and sit down to finish the rest of my breakfast before it gets cold. Soon Marcus joins us and Hailey follows to. Hailey and mom won't even look at each other, I really do hope this can be worked out soon. We will be moving in a couple days with the money I'll make from this guild token. I finish eating first and say goodbye to everyone else and head upstairs. I hop into my gaming pod and load in. I wake up in the same tent I fell asleep in, now I just need to continue my journey and wait a couple hours till the auction opens.
