Castles



Such is the end of a story that is quite terrible, and full of happiness in two people. Mouberg who heard the story was quite surprised, because this was the story he had just heard from himself. This is a personal story about his dark past, but why he told me it, that's what Mouberg is thinking.


"Why are you telling me your story? I am nobody" said Mouberg.


"Nobody? if I consider it that way I will definitely not agree with this peace. You are my friend, ah not more precisely now I consider you as my best friend, and this is the first time I have a friend, haha!. So, since I already thought of you that way, then it seems like you can already know about me" alzheimer's is thrilled to make his first friend for the first time in his long life, who is now 987 years old.


"You.. hahaha! you're the one, well then I'll consider you as my best friend. And since I already consider you a friend, then I will also tell my story, maybe it will be long" said Mouberg.


Then in the meantime The Power of Peace is still continuing their journey to seek peace, as well as to seek the truth about this world. The matter of seeking the truth in this world was Gernath's own personal matter, for he felt that there was something strange about the dreams that appeared in his mind, which made him have to uncover the truth.


Perhaps there is still something left over from the ancient humans of this era. That was what Gernath was thinking at the moment, a strange memory appeared in his mind that made him believe that there was something wrong with this world. That's why the Power of Peace was made not only to seek peace, but about the truth of the world, that's the goal that only Gernath has.


The sun was shining brightly, and the world was empty at that moment. There is no life at all except a very powerful being called a mythological creature. The creature felt very lonely, and very fragile because there was no one beside it.


Because there was only him then, for years he remained aloof. Until finally there were beasts popping up in front of him as he explored in this cruel world to him, and green herbs that looked beautiful. Makes her feel sad because in that world there is only one.


Until finally other creatures different from him began to appear. At that time he was really in a happy state, and approached the creatures that were different from him. But his existence was rejected, and he was hated until finally he returned alone. Feeling cold, sad, and not having anything really hurts the creature.


Then another creature began to appear, and he hoped that the newly emerging creature would accept him. But again he was rejected, and thrown out because it was different from them. Then for the third time he didn't do anything similar, because he knew what would happen to him if he wished. Because the result will be the same, the creature resigned in the middle of a barren desert, and he hopes that he never existed.


Then came the figure of a god before him who said to him, "Why don't you kill the people who threw you away?" the god said to the creature. But the creature rejected him, because he was a good creature, and did not want to kill anyone.


"Why should I kill them just because I'm not welcome? nothing will change if I kill them even once" the creature said. Then the god said something that made the creature surprised.


"You are the strongest of all creatures. I give you the blessings of great strength, but it's a pity that you don't use your power for them. But remember my words, above the sky there is still the sky" said the god.


"I would never do it, and rather than that overwhelming force. It would be better if the gods created the same creature as me, just like any other creature that has the same relationship" the creature said sadly.


"You'll never have anything like it. Since you are a special creature that I created, I created you as a destructive being" said the god who made his heart move according to the wishes of the god. Then the god instilled hatred in his holy heart. Until finally the creature was raging full of hatred against other creatures that do not fate the same as it.


The creature can destroy valleys, destroy mountains, even to make the water in the ocean dry up. What an incredible force that creature has. But years later the creature finally disappeared somewhere, and there was no terrible destruction like before that creature did.


"After reading a book, are you reading a fun book?" I said as I approached Tygruth who was reading a book by the river.


"What say! try saying it again!" I said while pulling Tygruth's collar.


"Hey you guys look there!" elysna approached us in haste. Then we followed where Elysna was going, and it turned out that Elysna was taking us away somewhere surprising. We saw a large castle near our stop. But since when was there such a big castle near us!? if it was that big we should have seen it from earlier.


Was this castle built by someone, "When did the big thing stand there?" tygruth.


"All of a sudden it was there all of a sudden" Elysna said.


"What do you mean by suddenly being there? did you guys see it?" said Tygruth who asked Elysna, and Mouri as they were both on duty to figure out the situation around here every time we rested for a while. Meanwhile, Vloid only confined himself in his room, because yesterday he had insisted on going against the absolute law for his people to carry out activities during the day.


But because he forced himself, he eventually fell ill. His body was very hot, and he seemed to have a fever, "So when me, and Elysna were exploring the area, suddenly a light appeared that made a castle of this size appear before us" Mouri said.


"In that case, it's unmistakable that this is teleportation magic. Means there was someone who did it, and if the castle was that big it would have been a lot of people in it. We have to be careful, and get out of here, it's not like they're people we can underestimate" Tygruth said.


"But what about our goal to build good relationships with other nations?" my spoken.


"Sial is right too, but for that we seem to leave it aside. Because I feel a bad feeling from this castle, just look at the state of this castle so bad, and not taken care of" said Tygruth, whose words have a point. The castle looks very dark, like there is no occupant. But it cannot be denied simply because of the bad state of this castle, it is possible that in it many terrible creatures, and much stronger than us, and many dangerous traps.


"What's!? since when was that big building there!" said Vloid who shouted in surprise to see there was a castle that big, and made us surprised because of his sudden arrival. Plaque! hit Tygruth, "Damn you boy! don't surprise us when things get stressful" Tygruth said.


"The place was so beautiful because of its darkness, it was possible that there was a treasure. I'll go there!" said Vloid who was full of vigor, and immediately went alone entering the castle without the slightest hesitation.


"Hey wait! godammit! is that kid stupid!" said the annoyed Tygruth.


"It looks like we have to catch up with him before he gets in too far" I said. Which then we all immediately entered the dark, and terrible castle. The atmosphere inside the castle was so quiet, and gripping that made the sound of our terrified heartbeat sound to each other.


"Who are they? dare to enter my palace"


As soon as we entered, we found a lot of very dark alleys. The only light that illuminated the hallways was the light from the torch affixed to the wall of the passage that was far away. Not only that, there are also many stairs that go nowhere to take us, and also a lot of rooms in each of these hallways. We continued to enter the castle deeper to search for Vloid while shouting his name.
