As her second in command, she was well aware of the dangers they faced passing this close to the forest. Amber\u2019s recently acquired pet wolf, whom she had named Mori Tura, trotted alongside her.<br \/>\u201cSister Agnes, are you sure we brought enough Shadow Guards with us?\u201d, asked Amber.<br \/>\u201cYou worry too much, Sister Amber Raine!\u201d, replied Sister Agnes, \u201cWe can easily handle a group of Dark Elves!\u201d<br \/>Amber\u2019s pet wolf, Mori Tura, suddenly came to a halt and started growling loudly. He stared in the direction of the woods.<br \/>\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong, boy?\u201d, asked Amber, \u201cDo you sense danger?\u201d<br \/>Suddenly, Amber heard a familiar whizzing sound as an arrow struck Sister Agnes in the heart and she fell from her horse, dead! (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cDream Raid Full Version (Mock Up)\u201d by Matthew Pablo at www.matthewpablo.com)<br \/>\u201cSister Beatrice, you and the rear guard help our unarmed sisters to seek cover!\u201d, yelled Amber, \u201cEveryone else engage the enemy!\u201d<br \/>Amber was surprised to see five dozen Dark Elf archers, swordsmen, and mages, come charging out of the woods! Amber and her sisters dismounted and took up positions. Her archers took cover behind some nearby boulders and began firing poison-tipped arrows at the Dark Elf mages who were casting fireballs, while her mages began casting Chaos Bolts at the enemy. Sisters Amber, Melody, and Carlita rushed forward to engage the Dark Elves in hand to hand combat.<br \/>Amber used her twin swords to finish off two Dark Elf swordsmen who charged at her, but did not see a third Dark Elf swordsman sneaking up behind her. As he raised his sword and prepared to backstab her, Amber\u2019s wolf leapt into the air, tackled him and ripped out his throat! Amber turned and nodded approvingly.<br \/>Sister Amber and her fellow Shadow Guard members put up a good fight, but there were just too many Dark Elves to deal with. One by one, Amber saw the others fall, until she and Sister Melody were the last two Shadow Guard members left standing to defend the nine surviving unarmed Sisters who were hiding behind some nearby boulders. All seemed lost\u2026<br \/>Then Amber suddenly felt a sharp pain in her back as three Dark Elf poison-tipped arrows struck her. No problem, thought Amber, my enhanced healing factor should be able to handle this! But something felt wrong this time. Everything went black as she lost consciousness and fell to the ground\u2026 (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cFlights of Fancy\u201d by Eliot Corley)<\/p>\n<p>When Amber regained consciousness, she found herself lying on a mat in a cave, clad only in her underwear and covered with a blanket. Apparently, someone had removed her armor and put some sort of salve on her wounds and bandaged her up. Her pet wolf, Mori Tura, sat beside her with a somber look on his face. Once he saw that she was conscious, he smiled and bent down to lick her face. Amber patted him on the head as she sat up.<br \/>\u201cAh, you\u2019re finally awake! You were unconscious for about a day.\u201d, said a white-bearded fellow clad in a white robe with black trim. The back of his robe was emblazoned with the image of a black hourglass.<br \/>\u201cThank you for saving me, kind sir! But what of my sisters?\u201d said Amber.<br \/>\u201cI\u2019m afraid they were all slain by the Dark Elves.\u201d, said the somber fellow, \u201cYou are fortunate that I happened to be riding by after the massacre. Your enhanced immune system couldn\u2019t handle the heavy dose of Badophan poison you received. Badophan poison is extremely rare and is the only type of poison which is fatal to elves. It appears that you were specifically targeted, as I could find no trace of Badophan poison on the arrows which struck two of your fellow Elven sisters. My cure poison and healing spells did not seem to have any effect on you. You seem to have an extremely high natural resistance to magic. Thank heavens my late friend, Christopher Nightshadow, taught me a thing or two about herbal remedies long ago.\u201d<br \/>\u201cMy sisters were all slain?\u201d, whispered Amber Raine, as her eyes appeared to glaze over, \u201cI have failed in my duty as a member of the Shadow Guard! I should join them in death!\u201d<br \/>Amber reached for the dagger she had strapped to her leg, but the old man swatted her hand away with his wooden staff.<br \/>\u201cDon\u2019t throw your life away like that!\u201d, admonished the old man, \u201cYou did the best you could under the circumstances. You were surprised and seriously outnumbered. There was nothing you could have done to change the outcome. What transpired was meant to be!\u201d<br \/>\u201cNo, I can\u2019t believe that! Our Lord Chaos would not want his most devoted followers to be slaughtered a bunch of foul creatures!\u201d, exclaimed Amber.<br \/>The old man sighed.<br \/>\u201cI have seen much during my 5,000 years of existence and can assure you that this was a fixed point in time. Your sisters\u2019 fate was sealed the moment they embarked on this journey. Your destiny lies elsewhere!\u201d said the old man.<br \/>\u201cWho are you?\u201d asked a wary Amber.<br \/>\u201cMy name is Nystal and I am here to help guide you to your proper path, Amber Raine!\u201d replied a smiling Nystal, as his eyes began to glow. (Music fades out.)<br \/>*************************************************************************************************<br \/>(Insert \u201cLiyan\u201d by Elerya)<br \/>The Port City of Ardoris<br \/>5:00 PM, The Present\u2026<br \/>\u201cKeep moving!\u201d barked Amber Raine to her prisoner as they emerged from the lunar rift outside the port city of Ardoris, located at the southeastern tip of Novia. The prisoner\u2019s hands were bound behind his back with Darby style handcuffs. Her pet wolf, Mori Tura, trotted alongside.<br \/>(Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cFrom Tome to Tome\u201d by Eliot Corley)<br \/>The charming and handsome bandit leader, Red Badger, flashed a grin, as he turned to Amber Raine, and said, \u201cIt\u2019s not late for you to let me go! I\u2019ll offer you triple whatever your employer is paying you. You know what they\u2019ll do to me if you turn me over. How could you do that to a hero of the common people in good conscience?\u201d<br \/>Amber snorted in disgust.<br \/>\u201cA hero to the common people?\u201d replied Amber, \u201cI suppose you\u2019re going to say that you\u2019re like Robin Hood, robbing from the rich to give to the poor!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWhy, of course!\u201d said Red Badger.<br \/>\u201cDon\u2019t lie to me!\u201d Amber angrily replied, \u201cI know for a fact that only 10% of your ill-gotten gain goes back to the poor in the form of food or gold. The other 90% you keep for yourself!\u201d<br \/>\u201cI have expenses! I have many men to support!\u201d<br \/>\u201cHogwash!\u201d, retorted Amber, \u201cYou spend the bulk of the money on wine, women, property, and rare and precious forms of art and literature!\u201d<br \/>\u201cI admit I do have an appreciation for the finer things in life.\u201d, said Red Badger, with a devilish grin, \u201cEspecially beautiful and strong women, such as yourself! Wouldn\u2019t you like to be my girlfriend, Amber? I could shower you in diamonds and pearls and silk dresses\u2026\u201d<br \/>\u201cShut up!\u201d said Amber, as she punched him in the jaw!<br \/>\u201cOw, that really hurt!\u201d exclaimed Red Badger, as he rubbed his bruised jaw.<br \/>\u201cI always honor my commitments! My word is my bond.\u201d, said Amber, as she glared at Red Badger, \u201cI\u2019ll not be bought off with trinkets! Speak of this anymore and I will show you the meaning of real pain!\u201d<br \/>Red Badger knew Amber was being serious, so he decided to keep his mouth shut.<br \/>(Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cAsian Duet\u201d by elerya)<br \/>As they approached the giant stone archway which marked the entry point to Ardoris, the normally stoic Guard Bob suddenly smiled and waved to Amber.<br \/>\u201cGood to see you again, Amber!\u201d, said Guard Bob , \u201c You\u2019ve been busy I see..\u201d<br \/>\u201cYes, the Mayor will want to see this prisoner right away.\u201d, replied Amber, \u201cHe\u2019s the Red Badger!\u201d<br \/>\u201cThe Red Badger?!\u201d, exclaimed Guard Bob, \u201cWe\u2019ve been trying to catch him for the last six months! I am very impressed.\u201d<br \/>\u201cThank you, Bob.\u201d, replied Amber, \u201cApprehending him wasn\u2019t easy!\u201d<br \/>\u201cBy the way, I get off in an hour. Mind if I buy you a drink then at The Bear Tavern?\u201d, asked Guard Bob.<br \/>\u201cI\u2019ll have to take a rain check.\u201d said Amber, apologetically, \u201cAfter I drop off this fellow and collect my bounty, I have to get back to Brittany right away!\u201d<br \/>\u201cOK, next time then\u2026\u201d said Guard Bob, trying to hide his disappointment.<br \/>(Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cAsian String Suite\u201d by BossLevelVGM)<br \/>Amber escorted the prisoner to the front gate of the Mayor\u2019s luxurious mansion, which, like much of Ardoris, had an Asian theme to it. A magnificent white marble water fountain in the form of a globe held in the palm of an enormous hand stood in the front yard. She informed one of the two guards at the front gate who she was and the nature of her business. The guard rushed inside to inform the Mayor and Amber and her prisoner were soon ushered into the Mayor\u2019s back office. The Mayor was seated behind his desk with his back to them, gazing out the window at his well-manicured zen garden. Two armed guards took up positions on either side of the door behind Amber and Red Badger.<br \/>\u201cWell done, Amber, you\u2019ve succeeded where my guards have failed!\u201d, said Mayor Stile Teckel, as he turned around in his chair to face them, \u201cSo, you\u2019re the notorious Red Badger who has been attacking my trade caravans? You\u2019re a lot smaller than I expected.\u201d<br \/>Red Badger started to speak,\u201d Mayor Teckel\u2026\u201d, but the mayor cut him off with a gesture of his hand.<br \/>Turning to Amber, Mayor Teckel said, \u201cAs soon as I received your message, I sent men to the secret cave hideout which you described. They were able to apprehend a dozen of the Red Badger\u2019s men and recover about half of the stolen loot.\u201d<br \/>\u201cTell me where I can find the rest of your men and the loot and I promise you a swift and merciful death!\u201d, said the Mayor, \u201cRefuse, and I will have my men torture you until you provide us with the information and then you will be drawn and quartered at high noon in the city square!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWait, that\u2019s not necessary!\u201d, said Red Badger, \u201cI have even more valuable information to offer in exchange for my life!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWhat sort of information?\u201d, asked a curious Mayor Teckel.<br \/>\u201cIt wasn\u2019t by chance that I targeted your trade caravans, Mayor Teckel! I was acting under orders from my boss!\u201d<br \/>\u201cYour boss?\u2019, asked Mayor Teckel, \u201c..And who might that be?\u201d<br \/>\u201cDuke Garen!\u201d, replied Red Badger.<br \/>\u201cWhat? That\u2019s utter nonsense!\u201d, said Mayor Teckel, \u201cDuke Garen has no quarrel with me and is a highly respected member of the Great Council. He would not be consorting with criminals such as you!\u201d<br \/>\u201cI know it\u2019s hard to believe, but it\u2019s true!\u201d, said Red Badger, \u201cDuke Garen is angry for losing the bid on the Nimada casino construction project to you! The potential revenue from the first casino to be constructed in New Britannia will be enormous!\u201d<br \/>\u201cIndeed it will be!\u201d, replied Mayor Teckel, \u201cI\u2019ve already entered into negotiations with The Bear Tavern to provide food and beverage services for the new casino, which will be built here in Ardoris. Duke Garen did seem somewhat disappointed in losing that bid. Perhaps you are telling the truth\u2026\u201d<br \/>Mayor Teckel stroked his chin as he pondered the validity of Red Badger\u2019s claim.<br \/>\u201cI wouldn\u2019t trust a thing this scoundrel says!\u201d, said Amber, \u201cHe\u2019s trying to stir up trouble and save his own skin!\u201d<br \/>\u201cYou have a point, Amber.\u201d, replied Mayor Teckel, \u201cIf Red Badger is lying, and I make a move against Duke Garen, that would be disastrous! I would not want someone as rich and powerful as Duke Garen as an enemy!\u201d<br \/>\u201cAmber, you doubt my sincerity?\u201d, asked Red Badger, \u201cWell here is a bit of information you might find interesting. Duke Garen has men searching for your old friend, Nystal!\u201d<br \/>\u201cNystal? Why would Duke Garen be interested in Lord British\u2019s former adviser?\u201d, asked Amber.<br \/>\u201cI don\u2019t know why he\u2019s interested in Nystal, but I do know that he has dispatched men to every city, town, and village in New Britannia.\u201d, said Red Badger, \u201dDo you want physical proof? Reach into my vest pocket.\u201d<br \/>Amber reached into Red Badger\u2019s vest pocket and pulled out a folded up piece of parchment. Opening it up, she saw a wanted poster of Nystal which had been distributed to all of Duke Garen\u2019s men. The wanted poster instructed his men to apprehend Nystal and bring him back to Duke Garen\u2019s castle just outside Brittany for questioning. Amber showed Mayor Teckel the wanted poster and then folded it up and put it in one of her belt pouches.<br \/>\u201cWell, it seems for once you were telling the truth, Red Badger!\u201d, said Amber.<br \/>\u201cGuards, take him away and throw him in my private dungeon. I will notify the Shogun Siranto and he will decide what to do with him!\u201d, said Mayor Teckel.<br \/>\u201cHey\u2026\u201d, said Red Badger as the two guards dragged him away.<br \/>After they left, Mayor Teckel took a small pouch full of gold coins out of his desk drawer and handed it to Amber.<br \/>\u201cGood work, Amber!\u201d, said Mayor Teckel, \u201cI suspect I will be in need of your services again soon!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWell you know how to reach me should the need arise!\u201d, replied Amber, \u201cWhat do you plan to do about Duke Garen? I know you\u2019ve already tied up a significant portion of your assets in the Nimada project. Without sufficient supplies and materials, the project will fail and you will be ruined!\u201d<br \/>\u201cI will have to plan my next move carefully.\u201d, said Mayor Teckel, \u201cDuke Garen is not someone to be underestimated. I\u2019ve spent too many years building my business empire to allow it to be brought down by that man. What are your plans, Amber?\u201d<br \/>\u201cI have to track down my old friend, Nystal, and warn him of the danger.\u201d, replied Amber.<br \/>\u201cGood luck to you!\u201d, said Mayor Teckel, shaking Amber\u2019s hand.<br \/>\u201cYou too, Mayor!\u201d, said Amber.<br \/>Amber turned and left the room. . (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cInnocence\u201d by Eliot Corley)<br \/>Outside the Mayor\u2019s mansion, Amber found Mori Tura patiently sitting by the front gate. As Amber approached, he got up and they began walking down the street. Suddenly, they spied three teenage boys picking on a young, ten year old girl.<br \/>\u201cPlease give me back my ball!\u201d, asked the young girl.<br \/>\u201cI don\u2019t think so!\u201d, said one of the boys, passing it to one of his friends. The second boy taunted the girl by holding the ball in front of him. As the girl reached for the ball, he suddenly pulled it back beyond her reach and then tossed the ball to a third friend.<br \/>The third boy held the ball out, just above the girl\u2019s head. The little girl jumped up to get it, but the boy suddenly held it high above his head, beyond her reach! The little girl jumped up again, but to no avail. The three boys started laughing.<br \/>The little girl looked like she was about to cry, when Amber and Mori Tura walked up.<br \/>Amber glared at the boys and said, \u201cGive the little girl her ball back!\u201d<br \/>Mori Tura started growling.<br \/>The three boys suddenly looked very nervous. The third boy handed the ball back to the little girl.<br \/>\u201cNow leave! And if I ever catch you bothering this little girl again, you will surely regret it!\u201d, said Amber, as Mori Tura eyes suddenly turned bright red and he bared all of his sharp, pearly white teeth.<br \/>\u201cAh, it\u2019s some sort of demon wolf!\u201d, cried one of the boys. The three boys turned and ran away as fast as they could.<br \/>\u201cGood boy!\u201d, said Amber, patting Mori Tura on the head, as his eyes returned to normal and he smiled at the little girl.<br \/>The little girl walked up to Mori Tura and began petting him.<br \/>\u201cGood wolf!\u201d, she said, \u201cDo you want to be friends?\u201d<br \/>Mori Tura nodded.<br \/>Amber introduced herself to the little girl.<br \/>\u201cHi, my name is Amber, and this is my pet wolf, Mori Tura.\u201d, said Amber.<br \/>\u201cThank you for helping me, Amber.\u201d, said the little girl, \u201cThose boys were really mean.\u201d<br \/>\u201cI don\u2019t think you\u2019ll ever have to worry about them bothering you again.\u201d, replied Amber, \u201cRight, Mori Tura?\u201d<br \/>Mori Tura nodded.<br \/>\u201cWhat\u2019s your name?\u201d, asked Amber.<br \/>\u201cMy name is Chariya.\u201d, said the little girl.<br \/>\u201cChariya? I know someone with that name\u2026\u201d, said Amber. (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cMaria\u2019s Theme\u201d by Janne Hanhisuanto)<br \/>Amber suddenly remembered that, right after she recovered from the Badophan poison five years ago, Nystal had introduced her to the holographic form of his wife, Chariya. This little girl looks exactly like her, Amber thought to herself. This can\u2019t be a coincidence. I better let Nystal know about this when I find him.<br \/>\u201cIt\u2019s a pleasure to meet you, Chariya.\u201d, said Amber, shaking her hand, \u201cNow I think it\u2019s best if you run along home now. I\u2019m sure your parents must be worried.\u201d<br \/>\u201cThere you are, Chariya!\u201d, shouted a blond-haired, blue-eyed, middle-aged man clad in a knight\u2019s tunic, as he ran over to hug Chariya, \u201cYou had me so worried! Never wander off like that when your grandmother falls asleep on the sofa!\u201d<br \/>\u2018But it is so nice and warm and I wanted to play outside with my ball!\u201d, said Chariya, \u201cThree older boys were really mean to me, but this nice lady and her pet wolf scared them away!\u201d<br \/>\u201cThank you for coming to my daughter\u2019s aid!\u201d, said the knight, as he shook Amber\u2019s hand, \u201cI am Sir Charles Campbell, Knight Commander in Lord British\u2019s Royal Army. Ever since my wife, Helen, passed away three years ago, it\u2019s been rather hard keeping an eye on Chariya. My mother is getting very old and I had just sent our servant Niles to the market to fetch some lamb for Chef Robert to prepare some nice lamb stew for dinner. I was tending to our garden out back and didn\u2019t even notice that Chariya had wandered outside.\u201d<br \/>\u201cWell, no harm done.\u201d, replied Amber, \u201cBut you have to do be more careful, Chariya! Mori Tura and I may not be around the next time you get in trouble. Do you understand?\u201d<br \/>\u201cYes, Amber.\u201d, said Chariya, as she nodded her head, \u201cYou and Mori Tura must be hungry. Would you like to join us for dinner?\u201d<br \/>\u201cI don\u2019t want to impose\u2026\u201d, said Amber.<br \/>\u201cNonsense, it\u2019s the least I can do!\u201d, replied Sir Charles Campbell, \u201cI won\u2019t take no for an answer!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWhat do you think, Mori Tura?\u201d, asked Amber, turning to her pet wolf, \u201cShould we join Chariya and her father for dinner?\u201d<br \/>Mori Tura thought to himself \u2013 I really wish I could speak. I hate being trapped in this wolf form. His mind drifted back to the past\u2026 (Music fades out.)<br \/>******************************************************************************************************<br \/>(Insert \u201cSoliloquy\u201d by Matthew Pablo at www.matthewpablo.com)<br \/>Five and a half years ago\u2026<br \/>Castle New Britannia<br \/>Samuel was hard at work in his studio in Castle New Britannia completing the painting his liege, Lord British, had commissioned of his lovely wife, Lady Arabella. As he moved his enchanted paintbrush (said to be once owned by the great Italian artist, Caravaggio, an influential figure of the Baroque period) across the canvas, images suddenly appeared, despite the fact that he was not using any paint at all! A few more touches and it was complete. Samuel gazed at the painting. He knew that his liege would be very pleased with it.<br \/>Setting down his enchanted paintbrush, he got up and examined the other paintings he had recently completed for his liege, which were leaning against a nearby wall. One was a rather peaceful painting of a warm spring day in the Valley of Fallen Heroes. Taking a closer look at the background, he noticed two odd things which he hadn\u2019t been aware of before. First, that single white dove flying overhead \u2013 was it his imagination or was its eye actually glowing? And where did that smiling, purple llama standing atop a nearby hill suddenly come from? Strange indeed\u2026 Samuel moved on to the second painting, which depicted Castle New Britannia as it would be viewed from someone standing near the front gate. He suddenly noticed that there appeared to be a light on in one of the upper tower rooms and a figure standing in front of the window. Who was that? Samuel peered closer\u2026he couldn\u2019t make out the person\u2019s face \u2013 just, a shadowy, hooded figure pointing a finger &#8211; directly at him! This was getting to be too eerie\u2026Samuel moved on to the third and final painting, which was a head shot of a black wolf staring right at the viewer. There was something odd about the eyes. When viewed one way, the eyes appeared yellow, but when viewed from another angle, they appeared to be red!<br \/>Since being appointed by Lord British to the position of Royal Artist, Samuel was afforded the privilege of keeping some of his own artwork to decorate his own quarters or to sell as he saw fit. Now it was time to paint something for himself. Samuel picked up a blank canvas and placed it on his second easel. Picking up his enchanted paintbrush, he let his imagination run wild as an image slowly started to form on the blank canvas. When he was done, he gasped. Before him was the face of the most beautiful, red-headed elf he had ever seen! There was a sad look in her eyes, though, that hinted at some hidden pain.<br \/>Samuel was suddenly interrupted by the sound of a rather familiar, annoying voice.<br \/>\u201cGreetings, Samuel! How are you doing on this fine spring day?\u201d, said Duke Garen, as he entered the studio.<br \/>\u201cJust fine, Duke Garen.\u201d, replied Samuel, as he forced himself to smile, \u201cWhat brings you here today?\u201d<br \/>\u201cI was visiting Lord British to discuss some court business. I\u2019m here to offer you a business proposal.\u201d, said a smiling Duke Garen.<br \/>\u201cWhat sort of business proposal?\u201d, asked Samuel.<br \/>\u201cI have always been a big fan of your artwork, Samuel. I will pay you double whatever Lord British is currently paying you, along with food and lodging, if you come and work for me instead.\u201d, replied Duke Garen.<br \/>\u201cThank you for the generous offer, Duke Garen, but I must decline.\u201d, said Samuel, \u201cI am quite happy working for Lord British.\u201d<br \/>\u201cYou are refusing my offer?!\u201d, yelled Duke Garen, \u201cHow dare you\u2026\u201d<br \/>\u201cI think you should reconsider, or you will surely regret it\u2026\u201d, hissed Duke Garen.<br \/>\u201cI don\u2019t take too kindly to threats, Duke Garen.\u201d, replied Samuel, \u201cFurthermore, I don\u2019t think that Lord British would tolerate this sort of behavior either. I\u2026\u201d (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cDark Amulet\u201d by Matthew Pablo)<br \/>Suddenly, Samuel found that he could neither move nor speak!<br \/>A hooded figure appeared in the doorway and was pointing his finger at Samuel, just like in the painting! The figure pulled down his hood to reveal a Tall Albino Man with red glowing eyes!<br \/>\u201cI always get what I want! If I can\u2019t have you, then I will make sure that no one else will either!\u201d, hissed Duke Garen.<br \/>Glancing over at the painting of the wolf, Duke Garen suddenly had a wicked smile on his face.<br \/>\u201cSo you like wolves, Samuel?\u201d, said Duke Garen, \u201cVery well then. A wolf you shall be!\u201d<br \/>Duke Garen started casting a spell and Samuel felt himself changing&#8230;<br \/>A few moments later, he glanced over into the dressing room mirror behind Duke Garen and saw that he was now a black wolf identical to the one in the painting!<br \/>\u201cThat will teach you for defying me!\u201d, cackled Duke Garen. He nodded to the Tall Albino Man.<br \/>The Tall Albino Man smiled and extended his arm, pointing towards the door. In his mind, Samuel could feel, rather than hear, the command \u201cRun away little wolf \u2013 far far away!\u201d<br \/>Samuel was suddenly no longer paralyzed and was compelled to run out of the studio as fast as his legs could take him. He ran out of the castle, through the streets of Brittany, and into the nearby forest.<br \/>After about an hour, he was finally free of the Tall Albino Man\u2019s influence and was able to stop. He was totally exhausted and panting. Samuel looked around. He was deep in the forest and completely lost. Suddenly, he heard the sound of growling behind him. He turned around to find himself facing a giant brown bear! The bear swatted him aside with one of his sharp claws. Samuel landed on his back nearby. He felt the sharp pain from the deep claw marks in his chest and saw the rapidly expanding pool of blood forming on his black fur. The growling bear was rapidly approaching, but Samuel didn\u2019t even have enough strength left to right himself. What a terrible way to die, Samuel thought.<br \/>Suddenly, the bear was struck in the chest by three throwing knives and a figure in black suddenly jumped in front of him and finished the bear off with a pair of swords! Everything faded to black as Samuel lost consciousness. (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cPath to Lake Land\u201d by Alexandr Zhelanov)<br \/>Several hours later, as Samuel slowly regained consciousness and opened his eyes, he realized that his head was lying in someone\u2019s lap. His mysterious savior had apparently bandaged his wounds and was petting him on the head. Stephen looked up and found himself staring into the face of the beautiful, red-headed female elf whom he had painted earlier that day!<br \/>\u201cAre you feeling better, boy?\u201d, she asked, in a very soothing voice.<br \/>The elf identified herself as Amber Raine, and, turning to Sister Agnes, asked if she could keep the wolf as her own. Sister Agnes initially refused, as pets were forbidden in the church, but Amber was insistent, pointing out that the wolf would surely die if they left him in the wilderness. Seeing Amber\u2019s devotion, and obvious love for the wolf, Sister Agnes interceded with the High Priestess, and Amber was allowed to keep him, on condition that she became totally responsible for his upkeep.<br \/>Thank you, Sister Agnes!\u2019, replied a joyful Sister Amber Raine. \u201cI think I will name him Mori Tura!\u201d,<br \/>Amber Raine turned to her new pet wolf and said, \u201cHi, Mori Tura! My name is Amber Raine. I think we\u2019re going to be really good friends!\u201d<br \/>Samuel looked up into Amber\u2019s eyes. He had always been popular with the ladies of the court because of his incredible good looks and his position as Royal Artist, but he had never found anyone he wanted to spend the rest of his life with \u2013 until now. He found it rather ironic that now that he had found his one true love, he was cursed to be in this wolf form. But, at that very moment, Samuel knew that he would never leave Amber\u2019s side. He hoped that one day he would find a way to break this curse and give her all the love she deserved. Right after he ripped out the throats of that damn Duke Garen and Tall Albino Man!<br \/>******************************************************************************************************<br \/>Back in the present, Mori Tura nodded.<br \/>\u201cWell, it\u2019s settled then!\u201d, said Amber, \u201cMori Tura and I would be happy to join you and Chariya for dinner!\u201d<br \/>\u201cExcellent!\u201d, said Sir Charles Campbell, taking hold of Chariya\u2019s right hand., \u201cMy home is just down the street.\u201d<br \/>Amber and Mori Tura followed the two of them to Sir Charles Campbell\u2019s Founder Knight home near the stone wall marking the edge of the inner city. As they entered the home, Chariya smiled. Amber is such a nice lady, she thought to herself. Perhaps father will like her and she will become my new mommy. (Music fades out.)<br \/>******************************************************************************************************<br \/>The Magasa Forest<br \/>5:00 PM, The Present\u2026<br \/>(Insert \u201cBattle Theme A\u201d by cynicmusic at www.cynicmusic.com and www.pixelsphere.org)<br \/>Theodric had decided to scout ahead of Nystal when suddenly he heard the sounds of men shouting and strange humming and clanking noises. He heard a man shout, \u201dHurry, I think he fled this way!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Soon, Theodric found himself facing fifteen Oracle flies, spiders, and Obsidian soldiers!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou there!\u201d, yelled one of the soldiers, \u201cDid you see a ranger come this way?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, sir!\u201d, replied Theodric.<\/p>\n<p>This didn\u2019t make any sense at all, Theodric thought to himself. Why would there be some of the Oracle\u2019s droids running around here and allied with her bitter enemies, the Obsidians?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see.\u201d , replied the soldier, \u201cSeize that man! We will take him back to the Temple for conversion. He will make a fine addition to our army! All hail the Oracle!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two of the other soldiers stepped forward, but Theodric grabbed hold of his long staff and began spinning it around.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, one of the soldiers fell back dead, an arrow sticking out of his chest!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat arrow came from up there!\u201d, shouted the other soldier, pointing to some nearby trees, \u201dI\u2026\u201d He never got to finish his sentence as he, too, was cut down by another arrow!<\/p>\n<p>One of the Oracle flies fired a laser beam at one of the trees. Theodric heard someone grunt in pain, and a figure fell from one of the nearby trees. The figure quickly rolled on the ground to extinguish the flames coming from his left shoulder and quickly came up on one knee and fired another arrow at the Oracle fly. The Oracle fly exploded into tiny pieces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAttack!\u201d, yelled the enemy commander. The remaining soldiers, spiders, and flies surged forward.<\/p>\n<p>A massive Obsidian soldier charged at Theodric. \u201cThose who do not serve the Oracle shall die!\u201d, he yelled, as he swung his sword at Theodric\u2019s head. Theodric easily dodged the attack and knocked him to the ground with a legsweep. He knocked him unconscious with his staff before he had a chance to recover.<\/p>\n<p>The ranger fired three more arrows in rapid succession at their foes, taking out an Oracle fly, an Oracle spider, and an Obsidian soldier. I\u2019ve never seen an archer move that fast before, Theodric thought to himself, as he smashed an Oracle spider into a tree with his long staff.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to his enhanced sense of hearing, which he had developed during the years he spent immersing himself in the martial arts at the monastery, Theodric heard a humming sound coming from some distance behind him. He quickly turned around and saw an Oracle fly which had flown behind the ranger undetected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook out, behind you!\u201d , yelled Theodric, as he quickly grabbed one of his hunting knives and hurled it at the Oracle fly.<\/p>\n<p>The Oracle fly was impaled against a tree! The ranger nodded to Theodric, then dropped his bow (for he had run out of arrows) and drew his long sword. The two of them stood back to back and quickly dealt with the remaining foes who had surrounded them.<\/p>\n<p>After the last foe had fallen, the ranger shook Theodric\u2019s hand and introduced himself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thanks for the help. I\u2019m Carlin, the Druid Archer.\u201d , said the ranger.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m Theodric. Glad to be of assistance.\u201d, replied Theodric, \u201cWhy were those soldiers and droids pursuing you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat was one of the Oracle\u2019s hunting parties which I happened to stumble across.\u201d, replied Carlin, \u201cAlthough the Dragon Lords helped Lord British and the Avatar defeat the Oracle long ago, some of her droids and neurologically implanted human soldiers still exist and continue to follow their prime directive: seek out humans to convert into Oracle followers. There must be an Oracle temple nearby because I know that the droids have a limited range. You know, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if remnants of the Obsidian Eye\u2019s forces still exist today as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a short distance away, Nystal suddenly cried out in pain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong, my love?\u201d, asked Chariya, as Nystal began clutching his head with both his hands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pain! My head feels like it\u2019s on fire!\u201d, screamed Nystal. (Music fades out.)<br \/>*****************************************************************************************************<br \/>(Insert \u201cInvasion\u201d by Eliot Corley)<br \/>Nystal suddenly found himself on the astral plane and facing Vastra, who was clad in sexy, green silk lingerie.<br \/>\u201cHello, Nystal. Miss me?\u201d, said Vastra, with an evil grin on her face.<br \/>How dare you mentally attack me, you witch!\u201d, roared Nystal.<br \/>\u201cNow is that any way to talk to your ex-fiancee?\u201d, replied Vastra, feigning a look of disappointment.<br \/>\u201cI won\u2019t fall for your tricks, Vastra!\u201d, said Nystal, \u201cIt\u2019s a good thing I figured out before our wedding 2,000 years ago what a lying, scheming witch you truly are! I was a well respected scholar, but that wasn\u2019t enough for you, was it? First you tried to seduce my best friend, Gabriel, and then I caught you in bed with First Consul Lucius Cornelius Cinna on the eve of our wedding! You were just using me as a means to obtain wealth and power!\u201d<br \/>\u201cOf course, my dear!\u201d, answered Vastra, \u201cThat is what matters most in life!\u201d<br \/>\u201cWhat are you doing in New Britannia anyway?\u201d, asked Nystal, \u201cI have no doubt that you have enchanted some poor noble with your feminine charms!\u201d<br \/>\u201cI am here on behalf on my master, Lord Chaos, to give you a warning.\u201d, said Vastra, \u201c Abandon your quest to find the new Avatar! Let Lord Shadowreign conquer New Britannia and dispose of his brother, Lord British. I understand that, after 200 years, you still have been unable to create a new body for your wife, Chariya. While I don\u2019t know why you would settle for someone who is far less beautiful than I, if you join us, my master will see to it that your wish will be granted!\u201d<br \/>Nystal was tempted by Vastra\u2019s offer, but said, \u201cI will never serve Chaos!\u201d \u201cGet out of my sight Vastra, before I do something I regret!\u201d Nystal\u2019s eyes started glowing.<br \/>\u201cDon\u2019t say I didn\u2019t want you Nystal\u201d, said Vastra. \u201cYou will regret opposing us!\u201d<br \/>Vastra\u2019s eyes started glowing, and then another shadowy cloaked figure suddenly appeared beside her. Nystal couldn\u2019t make out his face, but saw his eyes glowed bright red.<br \/>The force of their combined mental attack was too much for Nystal.<br \/>In the physical world, Nystal lost consciousness and fell to the ground.<br \/>(Music fades out.)<br \/>*****************************************************************************************************<br \/>(Insert \u201cMedieval\u201d by Miguel Herrero)<br \/>Meanwhile, Theodric and Carlin heard some disturbingly familiar sounds. They turned around and found themselves facing another thirty Oracle flies, spiders, and Obsidian soldiers! These Oracle flies and spiders seemed much larger, were jet black in color, and sported razor sharp adamantium mandibles. The Oracle spiders had spider web cannons mounted on their backs.<br \/>Carlin muttered, \u201cDamn Oracle droids\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>*****************************************************************************************************<br \/>\u201cHEY!

I will observe and advise, but I will never get directly involved in a conflict ever again!\u201d, said Nystal.<br \/>\u201cBut if you don\u2019t intervene they will die, or even worse be converted into mindless Oracle drones, like those captured Obsidian soldiers were!\u201d, said Chariya.<br \/>\u201cI\u2026can\u2019t\u2026\u201d, said Nystal.<br \/>\u201cWhy not?\u2019, asked Chariya.<br \/>\u201cBecause the last time I did\u2026you DIED!\u201d, sobbed Nystal, tears rolling down his cheeks.<br \/>Chariya\u2019s holographic form suddenly appeared alongside Nystal and stroked his cheek.<br \/>\u201cOh, my darling, even after all of those years, you still haven\u2019t forgiven yourself for my death, have you?\u201d, said Chariya.<br \/>\u201cNo, I guess I haven\u2019t . And despite mastering all of the schools of magic over the past 200 years, I still have been unable to create you a new, immortal body! In another 300 years, the cube\u2019s power source will be depleted! \u201d said Nystal, choking back the tears,<br \/>\u201cI know how hard you\u2019ve tried, dear.\u201d, said Chariya, putting her hand on his shoulder, \u201cBut even if you fail, 500 years is far longer than the little time we would have had together if I still had my mortal form. Remember that I feel in love with you because you are a good and kind-hearted person, always helping those in need, and striving to do what is right.\u201d<br \/>Chariya leaned over and kissed Nystal on the cheek. The spark of energy tingled.<br \/>\u201cYou\u2019re right, my dear, it is time for me to take action!\u201d said Nystal, as his eyes began to glow.<br \/>****************************************************************************************************<br \/>Despite taking down fifteen of their foes, Theodric and Carlin were now completely surrounded.<br \/>\u201cSurrender and you will be spared!,\u201d said the enemy commander.<br \/>Carlin spat blood in the enemy commander\u2019s face.<br \/>\u201cI would rather die than become a mindless servant of the Oracle!\u201d, shouted Carlin, as he assumed a battle stance with his bloody long sword.<br \/>\u201cVery well then, I will grant you your wish,\u201d, replied the enemy commander, \u201cKill the unbelievers!\u201d (Music fades out.)<br \/>(Insert \u201cAlmost Out\u201d by HorrorPen)<br \/>But before anyone could react, four of the Oracle spiders and four of the Oracle flies were hit by Nystal\u2019s Chain Lightning! Nystal then cast Gust, causing one soldier to smash into a tree. Theodric heard the soldier\u2019s bones break, as he fell to the ground dead. A Stone Fist caught another soldier in the chest, causing him to cough up blood and drop dead.<br \/>Two soldiers charged at Nystal with swords drawn from opposite directions. He disarmed them both, and then grabbed both of them by the throat and smashed their skulls together. After dropping their dead bodies, another soldier wielding a battle axe charged straight at Nystal. Nystal dodged his attack and then punched a hole straight through his chest! The stunned soldier looked down at the gaping wound and fell to the ground dead. Nystal hit another soldier in the face with his Flame Fist, decapitating him in the process, and sending the soldier\u2019s flaming head flying! It struck another soldier right in the face, killing him as well!<br \/>A few minutes later, he heard Chariya say, \u201cThat\u2019s enough, dear. They\u2019ll all dead now.\u201d<br \/>Nystal\u2019s eyes stopped glowing and he surveyed the carnage. He had single-handedly wiped out half of the Oracle\u2019s hunting party!
