Chapter 44: The cry of the planet

Soon, all of the visitors arrived at near the great tree of wisdom, where the God Junon awaits...

Lucid: What do you wish to speak to us, our lords?
Junon: It is... about the situation of the planet itself...
Lilith: Is the corruption far worse than we have ever imagined?
Junon: Unfortunately... Yes.... The devil pest has spread throughout the realm, even in this forest...
Tree of Wisdom: I agree... This forest.. Once filled with tame creatures, has finally gone mad... Oh I forgot to introduce myself... I am Yggdrasil, the tree of infinite wisdom... I am the lore keeper of this realm and I know all about this planet; of it's joys and pains...
Elysia: Exactly what do you mean by... Joys and Pains?
Yggdrasil: those are the cries of this planet... This planets will resonates through my roots and I feel it... Now it experiences great pain...
Larg: And I'm guessing, it's the work of the devil pest?
Yggdrasil: Yes.... you see, Many years ago, Junon was a beautiful place... But because the Goddess Hebarn and her minions spread the devil pest... The planet started to feel pain, because of the corruption of the virus...
Junon: And thus, part of your mission is this, right?
Kirnale: Yes... To stop the devil pest...
Namiele: But then, we dont know how we could stop it...
Eriol: I still remember what Chief Spinel said: That there is a weapon somewhere in the gorge of silence that could help us in this quest...
Junon: there is... It's called the sword of the ancients... Orlo made it for your use.. But you must prove yourself worthy to acquire a powerful artifact...
Lucid: But how could we prove ourselves, and where in the Gorge of silence is it?
Yggdrasil: My lord... Let me show them first what might happen if they fail their mission...
Junon Oh yes.. I forgot... Do it...
Yggdrasil: As you wish... Ok then... everyone close your eyes, you will see what might happen in the future.....

Soon, the Tree of wisdom's eyes began to shine.. and suddenly everyone saw a vision...

Maru: What is this realm?
Moro: Why is the sky red?
Sugar: The fields are burning...
Elysia: Covered in blood...
Larg: Is this.. Is this the future of this realm?
Yggdrasil: Not only of this realm but also of the other realms and galaxies... If you dont stop Hebarn now, then all will be like this... And evil and chaos will reign...
Namiele: horrible...
Eriol: I'm... totally horribifed...
Kirnale: We cant let this happen!
Lilith: Yeah.. We dont want this realm to be lost to the darkness!
Lucid: Yes... We must fight the darkness to give way to the light!
Yggdrasil: Very well then...

Soon, the visitors returned to the realm world... Then Junon approached Lucid...

Junon: Find the Worm dragon in the gorge of silence, there you must fight him to get the weapon you seek...
Yggdrasil: A large army is about to come!
Junon: What army?
Yggdrasil: The army of darkness is about to arrive!
Junon: All of you, prepare yourselves! A great battle will come!

And so, the visitors started preparing themselves, for a bloody battle is about to begin at the forest of wisdom...
