Marcus Triun - Part 42 (Ankhet)

I'm a Nomad called Ankhet Haram. I'm a worshipper of my goddess Safi, from my country Safilore. As you know , the known countries in our region are : Arishalore (Known as Arisha, the Goddess of light.), Niarlore (Known as Niar, the Goddess of Darkness. Not particularly evil intended.) And my lovely Safilore(Known as my beautiful Goddess Safi, Goddess of Neutrality). I was meditating in the Desert, Safilore is known for her sandbanks and the always shining sun. I was a blind nomad, my other senses were further developed then most people because of this . I had a crow, which was my everything. I could see through his eyes, and he felt my pain. Without him I would've probably already died in the deserts. But Safi saved and protected me. She gave me a blessing, she gave me Laohara the crow. In my language Laohara means Blind Eyes. I found it pretty fitting. I was meditating, when I felt an eruption in the sand. This can't be happening. All the years I followed Safi, I discovered alot. Especially of the meaning why we are all here on this world. Our mission. They created us and the world. And we slowly tear it apart with our useless wars and fights. I live in peace, and that's why Safi accepted me as her first and only personal Nomad. She has visited me more then once. What she also told me, is that a grand disaster will happen in my lifetime. Demons, also known as Ayakashi by the people who don't know anything about them, will strike our world. And will create massive disasters and will destroy our whole community. If the Ayakashi won't be stopped , we will all serve as their blood - slaves and centuries of pain and torture will occur. So, the three Goddess planned something thousands of years ago to stop the Ayakashi from destroying the world(The Goddess' are also known as the Creators of the World) . Safi let me in on this intelligence, and told me of an old lore told from generation, until generation . Although this generation forgot the whole lore, the Goddess' ofcourse still remembered it. The lore went like this :

"When Corruption, Evil and Ego corrupt the world,

The Goddess' Chosen ones, will rise up and fight,

All with their own specialities and flaws,

Five of 'em that are supposed to save this era,

All possesing a part of a power,

All together, able to create peace or massive destruction,

Only those with a pure heart can unlock it and have to overcome the trials that the Goddess' have set up,

Now listen heroes, and stop the corruption from this Era,

Dala'ruh."

That's how it went, and the Goddess Safi gave me the honour for being one. But, I have still not overcome the trial set before me, which I do not know of about. I again felt the sand erupt, so it's happening now as I think of it. The Ayakashi have summoned their leader , the Succubus Lavto. How ? I have no idea, I thought the seal was strong enough to keep her in for thousands of years. But the Goddess' already had fortold this, so I didn't actually expect that the seal would hold long. It kept her in for hundreds of years, not thousands. But my duty as a nomad is to protect my Goddess from any harm, which means I'll have to unlock my Divine Light. And so do the other four, but I first need to find them and we all have to overcome our trials. If not, we're all doomed to our fate. I stood up, whistled and my Crow Laohara came. He flew on my hand, and sat there looking at me. I was looking at myself, since I could only see through his eyes. Ankhet:"Laohara, we're leaving for Arishalore. We have to find the others." Laohara was looking at me like he understood what I meant, and he climbed to my shoulder. I picked up all my items and put them in a woolen sack and ventured on. In hope of restoring the peace forever on this world.
