�No, I am certain of this, but there might be an unconventional method. Mitch, go get the Book of Swords,� Gabriel said, in the same toneless voice that he had born ever since he was promoted. Mitch soon returned with a musty old book and handed it to Gabriel. Gabriel blew the dust off of the cover, when he opened it several moths flew out of it. He turned a few pages then sat down and said, �Alright, now, everyone but Mitch please leave for a while, I must have time to study this book.�
It had been three hours since Celestial had left the room, she had been wandering around, wondering if Kynoto and her sister were in the same place, and if they were, if they had meet each other when the doors opened. Mitch walked out and told everyone to come in. As Celestial entered, she saw that the room was astray with pages from many books and scrolls, Gabriel was still sitting in the same chair as when she had left and was pouring over a page in the book. When everyone had entered he said,
�The sword of Angmar is the answer. It can revive people, but it is not unguarded nor is it unhidden. It is in some far off mountains and guarded by a foul creature; a Hellspider.� Everyone shudder at the mention of this abomination. Everyone knew what a Hellspider was; a gigantic spider that had lived in Hell until it had devoured more the a thousand demon souls, making it an extremely powerful foe. �But I do have some good news; we don�t have to kill it, we just need its venom,� Gabriel said as everyone sighed with relief. �The sword is stuck in a certain type of stone that can only be dissolved by the guardian�s venom. Once we have the sword, we need to return to the spot where Kynoto fell and then we must cover the sword in his blood and stick it in the ground, simple really, for the most part. Well, let�s go right now, no need to waste anymore time. Kynoto can only be brought back within a time window of five weeks, and we have already spent one of those days looking for an answer. It will take us three weeks to get to those mountains, a few days to get the sword if were lucky, then another week and four days to get back to the spot where he fell. As you can see, were hard pressed for time,� he said as he got up and grabbed anything that he might need. He bade everyone else to do the same since they were going to leave in three hours.
On their journey, Gabriel kept a log. The following are some entries from that log:
Date: 5/25/02
To day we begin our task, expect little delays, and have gone twenty miles by mid-day. The mountains are still out of sight but our morals are high in hope that we will find this artifact sooner then expected. We have decided to rest after having gone forty miles, we will resume tomorrow.
Date: 5/30/02
We have run into our first hostile group; a small group of demons from some nearby mounds. They challenged us and we obliterated them. We gain some useful items from these demons.
Date: 6/02/02
We have finally reached the mountains and are currently mapping the tunnels in search of the Hellspiders' den. We still have yet to figure out how to get the venom from the creature, but I am sure we will think of something.
Date: 6/07/02
We have thought of a way to get the venom. We will use an animal to get it. We will send it into the den, where it will be bitten, then while the spider goes out to feed on other things, we will rush in and extract the poison from the dead animal. We have found the den and are commencing with the plan.
Date: 6/11/02
We have the sword in our possession and are currently on route to the place where Kynoto fell. The plan worked marvelously and no fatalities have occurred. We will try to revive Kynoto as he is the only one I have ever seen to be able to actually stand much of a chance against Triasha.
End Log
They reached the area only four days after they retrieved the sword, but they only had a few hours left; it was going to be a very close call. Gabriel hurled the sword into the ground and then sat down.
�Were going to be here awhile, so I suggest that you all make yourselves comfortable,� Gabriel said as he stared intently at the sword, which had begun to glow blue. It had begun; Kynotos� resurrection was being carried out right in front of their eyes. About an hour and thirty minutes later the ground started to rumble as the sword grew to a dark blue color. Then the ground split open where the sword was and Kynoto�s body was hurled into the air, the sword was broken. The body started to move, and then Kynoto said,
�Took you long enough.� Celestial threw herself at Kynoto, who was taken aback by her sudden surge of affection for him. After Kynoto pried her off, he told them all what he had gone through while he was trapped in Hell.
