Hidden from even the hardiest of animals, a being of humanlike-not human- form dwells in a dark chamber. The being wore night black robes, fashioned with a talisman of wicked gemstone. It raised it’s pale and skinny hand, a transparent ball of magic formed above it. On the ball formed images of the worlds- kings, peasants, bandits, wizards. Deafening roars and screams of battle, pools of blood and corpses.
‘Oh, mortals. So foolish... so... ignorant’ muttered the being.
Out of the sudden, two spheres of light formed floating on the air behind it. The magical ball dissipates from the being’s hand, his gaze turned upon the two spheres. At first, the balls of light float around restless, moving in a vague pattern.
After some more movement, the spheres stopped and transformed into a being of shape similiar to the shadowy being. However, the beings that the spheres transformed into wore robes of white and grey, with a similiar talisman hung upon their necks.
‘Kodyl... Koldo...’ started the first humanoid in a heavy voice.
‘It is time, Kadil’ replied Koldo, the white-robed form, with a less heavy yet still stern
voice.
From the grey-robed figure’s hand formed a transparent ball of the same properties that Kadil had summoned earlier. On it vague images of kingdoms started to shape. At first, there are images of laughter and joy, of children running around the town with a smile. Then, what supposed to be a harmonious display of men turned into a town aflame. War, murder, corruption, it all appeared at the ball.
‘It is time for us to take part in this world’ started Koldo, who spoke with a more feminine tone.
The 3 Entities transformed into 3 humans. Kadil turned into a young sorcerer, handsome at the outside, yet his power radiated even to the least sensitive of wizards. Koldo took form of a rich and charismatic noble, able to create a trust to anyone he would encounter. Lastly, Kodyl turned into a beautiful young woman, innocent and kind, stealing the hearts of men.
This way, it is the better for them to create trusts between humans.
‘For decades have I waited this moment, siblings’
‘We all have, Kadil. You, me, and Koldo all. But at last, patience is ripe for rewards’
Each of them muttered a spell. They began transforming into an illuminating form, ready to teleport to their respective destination.
‘We part ways here, siblings’
‘We shall meet again... and soon, I hope’
As the noble Koldo ended their meeting, their vague transformation became clearer. They left like how Kodyl and Koldo had arrived, it is by light that they travel, faster than any method of travel.
As the last bit of their forms left the chamber, the torches lit on the walls are no more. The very foundation started to fade, and the hidden room exists no longer.
To the world they depart, at last it is their time. Their time to, after decades of patience and slumber, take part in this world. For they are it’s true keepers, long overthrown by the mortal races. But now, it is time for the act of vengeance. What they once keep and care, they shall now break and destroy.
Though slowly. Slowly, that is, by meddling with the politics of the unstable world.
very much appreciated.
