Chapter 16: Council of the Gods

Est soon used his magic to teleport himself to the realm of Eldeon.. There, he saw Eldeon and Orlo talking about the many tribes lurking around the forests...

Eldeon: Hmmm... Seems that mistake that you did isn't a mistake after all...
Orlo: It isn't?
Eldeon: Yes... Quite frankly, the tribes here have even loved the place and the mystique here suits the planet well...
Orlo: Hehe... Well can't say that's just an accident, isn't it?
Eldeon: Still, there is still much we should do during the next few days... I suggest that we-
Est: Lord Eldeon! lord Orlo! I've brought terrible news about Lady Luna!
Orlo: What happened? Have you defeated the dark armies?
Est: They've vanished.. for now... but...
Eldeon: Well? What is it?
Est: Luna was sealed by Hebarn's dark magic that corrupted some shamanists including the Moon Pastor Laguz...
Eldeon: Say what?
Orlo: No way...
Eldeon: But that's impossible! No dark Magic can harm the Gods!
Orlo: It might be possible that...
Eldeon: That what, Orlo?
Orlo: During the past few days, the Pillar of Light is starting to glow dimmer and dimmer, and I'm suddenly turning weak...
Eldeon: Oh no... It has begun... Quickly! We must warn the other Gods! Orlo, go find Phage, Arua and the other Gods and Demi-gods, and tell them about Luna's Demise and that they should go to paradise at once! Est, you come with me back to Paradise!
Orlo: Yes!
Est: Alright.. But my magic wont be enough to make it through the trip!
Eldeon: don't worry, I'll get us there!

And so, Orlo, searched for the other Gods while Eldeon and Luna prepared the great hall of life for the Council. Meanwhile, back at Junon, Arua and Junon are having their personal time...

Arua: My love.. what will happen if Hebarn succeeds in her Plan?
Junon: don't worry... I'll make sure that it won't happen...
Arua: I know.. But it's just that... Our powers are getting weaker and Hebarn's energy is getting much stronger by the second...
Junon: Yes... The Pillar of Light is starting to dim.. But I know that our followers will keep us charged and make us strong enough to destroy her....
Orlo: My lord, milady, quick! You should go to the great hall of life at once! It's an emergency!
Junon: What is it about?
Orlo: Luna has Fallen!
Arua: Oh no... Have you informed the other Gods about this?
Orlo: Yes... By now they're waiting for you!
Junon: Then we have no time to lose! Let's go!

And so, all the Gods and demi-gods went into the great hall of life to discuss the current state of the realm.

Karkia: (Wears mask to anger) This is absurd! Lady Luna was sealed off by some weak magic?
Ska: That's not the cause of it... Maybe, Orlo is right... it must be the fact that our powres are getting weaker by the second!
Orlo: Yes... The Pillar of light is slowly dimming... thus making our powers much weaker...
Eldeon: Without the Light's energy giving us our strength, we'll be nothing but mere mortals!
Phage: We must do something about this!
Lilith: Yes... We have to work a plan to destroy Hebarn before the Pillar of light is gone!
Altana: However, we don't have any armies to counter the forces of Hebarn!
Junon: Calm down! Calm down! Look... I know this is a crucial moment for us now that Luna is gone... but we must stay calm! I know we can find a solution!
Arua: Yes... I know we can find a solution to this-

Suddenly, lightning bolts started to hit the ground outside the hall and a loud, demonic voice was heard...

Hebarn: (laughs) Fools! Have you not noticed that your time has come! Pretty soon you will all perish and I will reign surpeme over this universe!
Arua: Over our dead bodies you (censored)!
Hebarn: Ha! Look what I've did to your weak friend, Luna. That's just an example.
Junon: you'll never succeed Hebarn! We shall find a way to destroy you!
Hebarn: Don't make me laugh! you're attempts are futile... Surrender now or Die!
Arua: Never!
Hebarn: Then It'll be your doom...

The lightning stopped and the voice has vanished...

Phage: My queen, are you sure we can do this?
Arua: I hope so... I don't want this realm to be filled with darkness yet again... We shall find a way. I promise.
