Chapter 53: The sword of the Ancients (Part 1)

Soon, the visitors are now preparing for the final part of their journey to the Gorge of Silence... But just as things started to settle down, there are quite a few things the Visitors need to settle...

Lucid: Is everything there?
Lilith: Yep. everything is all set..
Kirnale: Wait, where's Maru and Moro?
Eriol: Those two always seem to get into trouble..
Namiele: Simple because they're too troublesome...
Elysia: Nah.. Don't worry about them... They're just too child-like that's all...
Sugar: They're hyperactive at the same time childish.. They're too much to control!

suddenly, Maru and Moro rushed into the visitors as if they saw a ghost.

Maru: Help! Help!
Moro: Large crocodile like creatures!!!!
Maru: Trying to attack us!
Lucid: Oh boy.. Where did you saw those things?
Moro: Near the waterfall!
Arkus: Crocodile like creatures? Kaimans.
Lilith: What are those Kaimans?
Arkus: Large walking crocodiles wielding weapons that guard the path towards the Gorge of Silence... Lately we cant go to the town located on teh Gorge simply because of those pestering Kaimans...
Kirnale: We cant help it if those crocodiles are blocking our way.. We'll just have to plunge right through them..
Eriol: Well yes.. We could wipe them out with magic if necessary...
Namiele: But the numbers.. Maybe we cant handle them...
Elysia: Well, it all depends on what those Kaimans can offer to us...
Arkus: In any case, please be careful... We wish you the best of luck.
Lucid: Same here.. We should get going now. Farewell.
Lilith: Hope we could pass by again!
Maru and Moro: Bye!!!

Soon, they reached the waterfall and as expected a large group of Kaimans is blocking the way.

Kaiman Guard: Sorry, you cant pass here!
Lucid: How could we pass then?
Kaiman Warrior: Pay us 10000 zulie!
Lilith: That's too much! We cant afford it
Kirnale: Yeah! you're too unfair!
Kaiman Guard: Too bad! No one can cross unless they have the gold!
Elysia: In any case... (Casts Lightning Bolt)

The bolt of lightning struck the Kaiman Guard and temporarily stunned him. This caught the attention of other kaimans in the area.

Kaiman Ranger: Look! One of our men has fallen!
Kaiman Warrior: Help! These vagabonds are trying to invade our realm!
Kaiman: You'll never get past here alive! Attack!
Elysia: We'll see about that. Larg! Attack!
Larg: Puu!!!
Lucid: Alright, let's push through this! Charge!
All: Charge!!!

The battle began. Hundreds of Kaimans are trying to push back the visitors but in vain. Soon, they found themselves in a very bad situation, and it looks as if the visitors are unstoppable. When the battle was over, it was a horrific sight.

Lucid: Is this what we must do just to save this realm?
Kirnale: It is the only way..
Lilith: The dark goddess is not fond of words.
Elysia: However, it is the only that we can think of. diplomacy will not work, nor would persuasion. The only way the Gods know this to end is through us. And we must stop this evil from destroying this beautiful universe.
Lucid: She's right. Everyone, let's move on out into the Gorge of Silence!
All: yeah!

Soon, they set off again, now at last, they have finally made it into the Gorge of Silence. The legendary Sword of the Ancients await...
