Chapter One: The Awakening
The stars from the
pale, gray sky fell gently on Goblin’s face, he sensed the faint cries
of the dead in battle, calling to him in pain, and fear, as he ran
through the eerie, frosted forest. In every corner, he saw the
explosions of spells being emitted from the polyhedral wands worn around
their necks. The Goblin, instinctively reached for his own wand, which
was hidden beneath his hooded cloak around his neck, and then read the
spells engraved on it. Judging by the changing color of the engravings,
The Goblin knew that The Dark Creature was approaching nearer; the
Goblin anxiously reached for his pocket, feeling the cubical shape of
the Crystal Cube. The enchanted Cube that revealed the appalling secrets
so deadly that those in desperation hungered for its possession.
However, there was one Object that could destroy the Cube and the Goblin
had to find its whereabouts, for if the Cube were to fall in the wrong
hands…
“Give me the Cube…” the vicious whisper of The
Dark Creature sent a shiver down the Goblin’s spine as he continued his
search for the Object. Suddenly, his heart froze at the sight of The
Dark Creature running behind him, erupting curses from his long fingers
towards him, the Cube in The Goblin’s pocket burned in fear as if it
knew that The Dark Creature desired it. The Goblin quickly searched
around every tree in the forest, hoping for the Object to appear. Behind
him, The Dark Creature gathered speed, gaining on the Goblin, The Dark
Creature’s decaying arm outstretched towards the Goblin’s pocket. With
tears in his eyes, The Goblin saw it, far down the path, a blinding
angelic, white light residing outside the forest. His faith was
regained; he quickly rushed towards the light, leaving The Dark Creature
alone, he also realized that the stars fell harder to the surface, as
if it were cheering him on.
Once The Goblin reached the
light, a sudden fear rushed in him, he realized that his body was
floating through mid air; His small arms flailed carelessly attempting
to stop his sudden fall to oblivion. The frightened Goblin heard the
piecing screams of The Dark Creature, echoing through every living
creature at battle, the earth abruptly crammed with a menacing aura of
peculiar magic. Raging anger surged through The Dark Creature, in all
hope he loudly chanted incantations through the sky, trying to retrieve
the Cube. Nevertheless, all failed, The Dark Creature, desperately and
spitefully watched as the beloved Cube that he so much desired fell with
the Goblin. At a far distance, The Goblin heard a soft, valiant voice
through his ears, “The sanctuary has been revealed…. The Cube has
awoken….”
