CHAPTER 8: A Realm of Despair
[Far from humanity "Unknown Dimension"]



(Far from Sojah, far beyond fathom of the human mind is a dimension of darkness, a realm of evil, the darkest of evil....In this realm physical matter has no substance...all remnants of this unknown land thrive on battling others, an worse, with the most superior skills of magick....All creatures of this unexplainable realm are immune to physical attacks, and can only be harmed by that of magick.....Our story strays to this "nexus in time" with good reason, as this is the very place where one of our heroes has sought training......after entering the darkness in the final corridor of the Mystic's cavern.....Earle was sent not to the depths of earth, nor anywhere near it.....he unknowingly took the mystic's training......apparently his training is to merely survive this very dimension he was tossed into......as Earle made his landing through the darkness he was confused as to what went wrong.....he found himself surrounded by the bones of humans, probably the ones the mystic had spoke of.....as he looks around he sees a dark world that seems on the brink of its very own destruction; as the ground shakes, and fire rises between the charred foundation in the ground....)

I stand here in awe....I can't possibly understand as to why I was sent here....what had went wrong.....perhaps this is where I was meant to go......although I can't see how or why I would be sent to a world which seems to be on the verge of extinction....(unfamiliar noises)....what was that....perhaps this land still has inhabitants.....tis at least a start....I won't have any questions answered by standing here.....it may be dangerous but I must investigate that sound I heard if I am to find any clues......
::Earle

(A cautious and confused Earle begins to track down and follow the whereabouts of the noise he had heard in order to attain some answers...)

The more of this world I see, the more it begins to frighten me...I feel for the first time, truly alone and true abandonment.....I don't know if I am intended to survive this realm....but even so, how would I return if I succeeded....(stops and hides behind a charred and destroyed wall of stone).....that noise! that is the very same one...I must see what it is...(peeking out around stone) what are these monsters...I have never seen such hideous creatures...not in all my travels....and their dialect is unfamiliar to any language I have ever encountered....
::Earle

(Earle completely in awe, knows not of these creatures....but these very creatures are the majority of inhabitants in this world, they are goblins...they carry bow & arrows, swords and armor which appear useless in a realm of magick, although they are weapons & armor bound with magical spells....The goblins talk amongst themselves in their native dialect)

"No'e tuur'bakt'en" {I'm starving!}
::goblin#1

"Co'eer b'uun ta'hak na no'eu kren nee" {Don't complain it's all we could get!!}
::goblin#2

"No'eu we'gu iis ber'gu la'tu ig'sizi" {We better try harder next time!}
::goblin#3

"No'i peo ker no'eu ir eer iis'en uug'beo" {I feel like we are not trying enough}
::goblin#2

(Earle accidently kicks a rock as he repositions himself behind the wall...)

"Seu no'eu'ir kuh'leba'en mou...orga" {Yea we're slacking off...what?}
::goblin#1

"Orga tahn mot" {What was that?!}
::goblin#2&3

(The goblins believe they have company and are cautious, so they quickly get to their feet with their weapons....they begin calling out to whatever it is that had disturbed their small feast)

"Orgo....orgo'hak torgii" {Who....who's there!?}
::goblin#1

"No'eu co'eer de'mi du se'tiim ui't no'eu iikta ju'utu nou'jii'reo..." {We don't wish to fight but we will defend ourselves...}
::goblin#3

"B'uk hu'te ina ceo'lim oniir foteer, vi'kore e vi'kde" {Come out and speak your purpose, friend or foe?}
::goblin#2

(The goblins are truly not a dangerous race, but due to their hideous appearance and unfamiliar dialect.......Earle is not sure of what their intentions are....he does not wish to stir up a quarrel with such unknown creatures, but after watching these creatures for a short while he is confident he could defend himself against the three if anything were to go wrong.....our hero then proceeds to walk out and make himself known...he does not want to appear as an enemy, and hopes to somehow communicate with them...)

Well here goes.... (stepping out from behind stone) Hello! I am Earle! I mean you no harm! I am lost and just wish to find out some answers! ::Earle

(The goblins are confused and begin looking to each other for assistance...)

"Co ze'gu ou oni jiu orga ta ceo'le" {Do either of you know what it said?!}
::goblin#3

"No'i uyo ues cuyik...ui't ta vyuigab sepog'en'aati" {I have no idea...but it looks dangerous}
::goblin#1

"Chorg co no'eu jiu ka ta'hak sepog'en'aati" {How do we know if it's dangerous?}
::goblin#3

"No'i ceo co'eer ik'nee nu zihbna'reo.....no'eu sh'kren gaam ta" {I say don't take any chances.....we should kill it!}
::goblin#2

"Neksi jeka, uuh'sa ot mei'tan iis du ceokalido...koj'rem ta cov'eer jiu orga no'eu'ir ceo'en" {Calm down, let's at least try to communicate...maybe it doesn't know what we're saying!}
::goblin#3

"Ou pruxii ta cov...nou skilautwe hak zahlakt na iigry'on tyrhak gowazx...ta zi'qohr'zy jiub hiikarb mot ouuso kahbrahc du sa" {Of course it does...our language is used all among this world...it probably knows spells that sound foreign to us!}
::goblin#2

(Goblin#3 which appears to be the most rational then walks to Earle and tries to communicate with him believing he might've come in peace...)

"Rem qel'mok biiks'gu ta pwa'tiim iis du riijen fwinu hiikar...ka ta cov no'eu'kk nee liij" {Be careful brother it might try to cast some spell...if it does we'll get 'em!}
::goblin#2

(Goblin approaching Earle)


"Azziis! No'eu co'eer luuym'veuut oniir te'qarv'feb! No'i o'tan de'mi du ceo'lim yiigh oni! No'eu xujuk oni ues kudba!" (trying to make hand gestures to communicate) {Please! We don't understand your intentions! I just wish to speak with you! We mean you no harm!}
::goblin#3

(Both goblins 1 & 2 are nervous and anxious...they still carry their weapons in caution for themselves and their brother)

".................................."
::goblin#1

I am a friend! I just wish to leave here...I don't wish for any trouble..........(goblin#3 is now right before Earle...Earle nears him)... I just want to know how to get home...
::Earle

(Goblins 1 & 2, still believing that Earle knows their language are unsure but seem to think Earle said "DIE"...in fear for their brother the goblins attack)

"Ahk ues! Coghii oni fahr mot?!?! No'i co'eer jiu ui't no'e gahv lii ceo'le, 'hoehm'!!" {Oh no! Did you hear that?!?! I don't know but I'm sure he said, "die"!!}
::goblin#1

"No'i fahrij ta duu!! Lii ceo'le 'hoehm' ...ta'hak zi'qohr'zy i hiikar!! Mot'hak ta no'eu uyodu maahg liij!..." (Fires an arrow at Earle) {I heard it too!! He said "die"...It's probably a spell!! That's it we gotta save him!...}
::goblin#2

(The arrow pierces into Earle's right shoulder.....now having been attacked all hopes of allying with each other have passed...Earle is now under the impression that they had tricked him to let his guard down...a battle wages! With Earle injured & under attack by the goblins we will finally see the warriors skills in combat...)

DAMMIT OWH!!!! Such vile creatures, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TRIED TO REASON WITH YOU!! ::Earle

(Goblins 1 & 2 begin attacking Earle with arrows from a short distance as goblin 3 defends at front with his sword...he is unsure as to what had caused his brothers to attack but is ready to battle nevertheless...)

I summon forth the power of Koja!! Wind of the gods, carry them to the heavens! ::Earle

(Earle throws his left hand toward the sky, then aims it at Goblins 1 & 2...an enormous gust of wind soars out of Earle's palm in the form of a tornado...)

"Aaaah!! Vyuiga hu'te!" (diving out of the way) {Aaaah!! Look out!} ::goblin#2

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!" ::goblin#1

(Goblin #1 is tossed into the air by Earle's divine wind...he lands in a nearby lake of lava...and slowly begins to wither and burn away...)

"Biiks'gub....zohf.....aaaah.....zohf ino.......blu..." (melting in lava) {Brothers....help.....aaaah.....help me.......blu...} ::goblin#1

"Biiks'gu....UEEEESSS!!! Hoehm qeuh'mi zarkloi!!" (fires another arrow at Earle) {Brother....NOOOOOOO!!! Die foolish creature!!} ::goblin#2

(As goblin #2 fires arrows at Earle....goblin #3, angered by the death of his youngest brother.....attacks Earle with his sword...and appears to have much more comprable skill then his brothers...)

"Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Hoehm! Enakte-Reporum...!" {Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Die! Enakte-Reporum...!} ::goblin#3

(Earle throws his hands toward goblin 2 and his arrows....goblin 3 has casted a spell with a power that has yet to be revealed)

Yaaaaaaaaaaaahh!! (to self) I'm sure that was a spell...but what did he do...?!?! (to goblin#2) Haaaaaaaah!!
::Earle

(All arrows are redirected back at goblin #2...he is pierced by several arrows, and is thrown violently into a stone wall by the wind spell)

"Aaksoh!! Arrrrgghh!! Vabuqo ino, biiks'gu...." {Damn!! Arrrrgghh!! Avenge me, brother....} ::goblin#2

"UEESS!! Biiks'gu, oniir hehonis iikta rem vabuqoakt.....no'i iikta namu'zy zel'uun ine caazix yiigh oniir covol!! Fe'vacto Requiem!!" (glowing with strange aura) {NOOOO!! Brother, your death will be avenged.....I will gladly stain my blade with your blood!! Fe'vacto Requiem!!}
::goblin#3

(Earle & the last goblin stand before each other, this goblin seems to know some magick.....Earle's noticed it has casted 2 spells already...he has no clue as to what the first has done, but after he casted the second one a red aura began to surround him...and now the goblins eye's glow the red of a demons'...)

What has he done to himself....!?!? It seems some sort of berserker spell....yet he casted on himself!! (thinking) I must be cautious and end this quick...I still don't know what else he has caused with his first enchantment... ::Earle

"GRRRRR!!! 'Oniir jgorul iikta maazn rem veqohjaakt yude tyrhak gowazx!!' GRRRRRRRAAAAARRR!!!" (attacking) {GRRRRR!!! Your soul will soon be dismissed from this world!! GRRRRRRRAAAAARRR!!!} ::goblin#3 (berserk)

(Earle barely dodges the goblins sword...)

By the gods....he's going all out....but why would he throw it all away and cast a berserker spell on himself.....(directs a blast from his wind spell toward the goblin) HAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! ::Earle

"RRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" (unharmed by spell, continues attack) ::goblin berserker

Wha?!?! Fire of Toruuj! Scorch him with the flames of the sun!! Yaaaaaaaaaaaah!! ::Earle

"RAAAAH...GRRAAAAHH!!!" (unharmed, attacks)
::goblin berserker

(Earle realizing his magick attacks aren't harming the berserker attempts to retrieve a sword left behind by one of the other goblins......he begins to understand the first enchantment of the goblin.....Earle runs for the sword)

......hu.......hu.....wooh!! (picking up sword and turning) Haha!! NOW, YOU DAMNED..... (goblin slashes at Earle's injured right arm) AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!.......GWAHH!!....AAHHH!! CURSED CREATURE!!!
::Earle

"GRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR" (swings again) ::goblin berserker

Naah!! (deflected) HAAAA!! (thinking) That first spell must've made him immune to my magick attacks.....well if its combat then I am ready (aloud) I MUST RETURN TO MY COMRADES!!!! ::Earle

(Earle stabs the goblin through his chest with all his might....killing the goblin and the berserker spell...)

EEYAAAAHH!!! (bleeding, and dropping to knees) heh....hu....hu....whew.....I must seek healing.... ::Earle

"....uhg.....biiks'gub...no'eu.....iikta rem...du..neeh'gu.....ujjse...fi'uun....." {....uhg.....brothers...we.....will be...to..gether.....once...again.....}
::goblin (returned to normal)

(The goblins' voice fades...and as Earle listened to his last words he could almost understand the creatures pain....and fealt somewhat of a guilty feeling in his heart, not knowing why...Earle fealt it would ease his mind to bury the creature properly.....but Earle is injured nonetheless, and this new world has proven more difficult than its crude appearance could even portray...the warrior moves on to search for any reason or cause....)


[Several months pass by.....]

(Nearly 8 months have come and gone...our hero has already become familiar with the land....and has enhanced his magick skill to levels beyond imaginable.....but he seems to have become a permanent resident of the land...and over the months has forgotten his purpose for being sent here, all he seems to remember is his quest for more power..."the truth lies deep within his mind, hidden" he has been more occupied with his very own survival, than finding a way to escape.....Day by day Earle battles creatures with powers that are unknown in his home world.....he still knows of our language, only now he speaks the native dialect to this realm as ours is useless here.....)

"...No'i d'tan ott'uun iem!! IEM EGCIL'GU!! ina oni oujik oni iikta ju'honis ino!!" {...I must attain more!! MORE POWER!! and you think you will defeat me!!}
::Earle

"Hij'kerva liij...ina kel'ja, lii'hak i sepog'en'aati x!" {Surround him...and steady, he's a dangerous one!} ::Zekrelic (Commander of Hoarde)

(It appears the middle of a battle, Earle is now seen as a threat to the inhabitants of this realm and is attacked on a constant basis....hoardes of goblins, mastifs, and trolls begin to attack Earle...)

"Erra'tanb na ou oni! No'i cabrakt oni nilbogb eer du tokko ine terraj! Tah kah eht llortb, ina fitsamb, Hah arthye thyrifta...ta wo'eer ju'honis ino......oni qeuh'mi zarkloib ir du hoehm tyrhak burv dio!!" {Pests all of you! I warned you goblins not to cross my path! As for the trolls, and mastifs, Hah earth magick...it won't defeat me......you foolish creatures are to die this very day!!} ::Earle

"Zkorch!! Uuh eht fuhrob jyh!!" {Fire!! Let the arrows fly!!}
::Zekrelic

"Haha!! Uyo oni eer sdutillakt! Chus oluesaani! Baldo'tekontis!!" {Haha!! Have you not learned! Such ignorance! Baldo'tekontis!!}
::Earle

(An orb surrounds Earle and deflects all the arrows at the goblins on the frontline....)

"AAAAAAAAAHHHH...RRRRAAAAAAA......GWWWAAAAAHHH!!!"
::Goblins (dying)

"Muahahahahaa!! No'i cabrakt oni, quehb!!" {Muahahahahaa!! I warned you, fools!!} ::Earle

(Trolls begin charging with their weapons, all bound with different spells....the Mastifs then attack the warrior with Earth magick from all directions...)

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!"
::Trolls (charging)

"Haha....chus i zahla'fike trozze...oni iktoh rovehn sdutill...Morte'degoruh!!" (holds hand over face, ashamed of the enemy's foolish tactics) {Haha....such a useless effort...you shall never learn...Morte'degoruh!!}
::Earle

(With Earle's enchantment "Morte'degoruh" all of the Trolls seem to stop before Earle and lose control of their limbs which attempt to kill them with their very own weapons...)

"Ine mar no'i noceer...tronac....ta..."
{My arm I cannot...control....it...}
"Orgi uyo no'i pehsdeakt, ina ine marb...orgi...noc'eer....no'i pehsde....mhet..."
{Why have I stopped, and my arms...why...can't....I stop....them...}
"Uees..uees......Gwaaaaaaa!!"
(stabs himself) {Nooo..nooo......Gwaaaaaaa!!}
::Trolls

"Llortb...hah....oni ir eer thyrow uug'beo du lettoh x chus tah no'i! Hahaha!" {Trolls...hah....you are not worthy enough to battle one such as I! Hahaha!}
::Earle

(Earle watches as he makes every one of the trolls kill themselves....he is then hit with a strange pain in his head...)

"YAAAAAAAAAHH.......GWWAAAAAAAHH!!" ::Trolls (dying)

Hahahahahahahahaha.......(grabs head with hands...thinking) aaahh!! this pain why do I feel such pain....(starts seeing visions of 3 warriors)...who...who is this....its as if my mind is trying to remind me...of something....ahh! ::Earle

"Tonju'Koteree!! Kanton'fizvecte'!! Juuhac'neferrum!!" ::mastifs

(at the death of the trolls the mastifs waste no time in summoning an avalanche of stones & earth crashing down all around Earle.....the warrior, in distress, appears to be unguarded and distracted by his mind.....)

Huh! (just as stones are about to hit him) Baldo'eirmondis!!! (stones cover him)
::Earle

"Hahah! Nalfi'zy no'euyo drii nou'jii'reo ou mot luof zarkloi! Muahahah.....err?!?!" {Hahah! Finally we've rid ourselves of that foul creature! Muahahah.....err?!?!}
::Zekrelic

EEEEEHHHHHHH...........(explosion! stones fly everywhere) HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!
::Earle

"Uees!! Aaksohta ou na eht qeuh'mi'fikt.....hniifs liij kiuc'zy! No'i co'eer nahwt du zahla ta, ui't no'i iikta!!!" {Nooo!! Dammit of all the foolishness.....finish him quickly! I dont want to use it, but I will!!!}
::Zekrelic

(at that moment the mastifs attempt to cast another spell, but were not fast enough as Earle called upon the element of fire to defeat them...)

"Orgen eht zkorsheb ou eht niusm ir eer tohz uug'beo....NO'I LACAL NOPU EHT ZKORSHEB OU HEGLE!!! Nruuhb ina nruhb sothe mot veuut rebofe ino!!" (directs spell at mastifs) {When the flames of the sun are not hot enough....I CALL UPON THE FLAMES OF HELL!!! Scorch & burn those that stand before me!!} ::Earle

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH........GWAAAAAAHHH!!" ::Mastifs (burning)

"Oni biitradi! Orgi wo'eer oni o'tan HOEHM!!!" {You bastard! Why won't you just DIE!!!}
::Zekrelic

(the mastifs all begin falling one by one, some still run around screaming as they are covered in flames.....Zekrelic, being defeated by Earle once again, has decided to try something new...he has brought with him a creature so powerful, it is beyond all expectations...he had hoped not to use it but was left with no choice!)

"HAHAHA!!! Tethe yitp'mok fitsamb, vyuiga ot mhet Zekrelic! Chawt tah oniir ryma hak nuritakt du aiseh!! HAHAHA.....uh...ah..." (feels yet another pain in his head) {HAHAHA!!! These pitiful mastifs, look at them Zekrelic! Watch as your army is turned to ash!! HAHAHA.....uh...ah...}
::Earle

"Oni'uyo tufle ino ues coheci...du'dio oni iikta nalfi'zy yeuh oniir dein, HAHAHAA!!!" (holds up a small purple stone) {You've left me no choice...today you will finally meet your end, HAHAHAA!!!} ::Zekrelic

"AAAHH!! Tyrhak paigon orga...orgi...orgi co no'i epke uyo'en sviionu'feb ou sethe ex....sethe wriorahb.....orga hak ine nimid iis'en du idinomb'gu!........Orga...!!" (thinking to self) Is this...are these my companions......yes! I feel as though I know them... (pain stops, and warrior looks at Zekrelic) {AAAHH!! This pain what...why...why do I keep having visions of these 3....these warriors.....what is my mind trying to remember!........What...!!} ::Earle

"Tyrhak noeshti lihdob oniir burv ju'urst'fe! Hahaha!!" (holding stone to the sky) {This stone holds your very destruction! Hahaha!!} ::Zekrelic

"Haah!! Gahv'zy oni shtehj....ine ju'urst'fe? Orga?? Ir oni nih'en du wothre ta ot ino...Hahahahah! Oni'uyo nuhr hu'te ou det'feb Zekrelic...du'dio hak oniir dio du hoehm!!" {Haah!! Surely you jest....my destruction? What?? Are you going to throw it at me...Hahahahah! You've run out of options Zekrelic...today is your day to die!!}
::Earle

(Zekrelic has an evil smurk on his face as he speaks an enchantment Earle has never heard before.....)

"Glaubea iuw!....Frivigor'Mezesti'tekonburo!! VIGNU'EN FUTROI EHT DHURG, VIGNU'EN FUTROI DHURG WUIQ'ON'GU PUIZ JIIVUTE'REO!....DHURG IEM URH'FIKE PUIZ I LIIJOUN!! " (after the spell he runs off) {Laugh now!....Frivigor'Mezesti'tekonburo!! BRING FORTH THE EVIL, BRING FORTH EVIL STRONGER THAN HOARDES!....EVIL MORE RUTHLESS THAN A LEGION!! }
::Zekrelic

"Hahaa! Nuhr'en mou fi'uun...latslu'en ino yiigh i guimu du ecpase....iuw mot ouusob ker oni 'Zekrelic'!!" {Hahaa! Running off again...stalling me with a bluff to escape....now that sounds like you 'Zekrelic'!!} ::Earle

(as he runs away, Zekrelic shouts back at Earle with words of dismay...)

"Tah no'i'uyo ceo'le 'glaubea iuw', kah tyrhak iikta rem eht istal ig'sizi no'eu yeuh....MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" {As I've said 'laugh now', for this will be the last time we meet....MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!}
::Zekrelic

Damned fool always gets away! It's useless to chase him....(hears noise)...huh.....what.....could he have really...... ::Earle

(Earle turns back and realizes that the stone is floating in the sky and a light shines bright out of the stone.....he starts to think there was some truth to Zekrelic's words as he hears a deep growling......what the warrior least expected is about to happen....stones such as these are used to capture creatures that are too strong to win in battle! Behold the creature known as "Balrock" a creature the size of a castle, with the strength of an entire world...)

By the gods!! (slowly looking up as creature is released from the stone)......What creature is this...it seems a beast with power compared to that of the element of fire.....curse that Zekrelic I could never have imagined he had something like this up his sleeve!!
::Earle

GRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWRRRRR!!!!
::balrock

....I will not back down from this battle...I WILL DEFEAT YOU , BEAST!!! THEN ZEKRELIC!!!
::Earle

(growling...the balrock the begins to step toward Earle....it whips its tail at the warrior....)

whoa.....(dodging) Calm yourself!! Such an enormous creature of fire....I must conjure spells of water and ice!!...FOUL BEAST, LETS SEE HOW YOU DEAL WITH AN OCEAN AVALANCHE!! Leviathin'Hydroforum!
::Earle

RRRAAAARRRR (an ocean of water crashes down on the huge beast) GRRRRRAAAAAAAHHH ::balrock

Hahaha!! How was that? Enjoy the bath creature!!.......huh......damn...... ::Earle

(the balrock remains unharmed from the attack, an continues its assault on the warrior....the beast begins hurling fireballs at Earle...)

Damn....what beast of fire remains unharmed by water!! I guess I'll have to try ice!!......whoa.... (dodging fireballs)....hu....hu....whoa......Tempus'gorum!! SHARDS OF ICE, PIERCE THE FLESH OF THIS VILE BEAST!! ::Earle

GRRRRAAAAAAWWWRRR (walking through ice spell)...GGGGRRRRRRRR...
::balrock

What is this......it seems immune to all my spells!! (dodging & running)....hu...whoa...hu..hu...whew...whoa.....
::Earle

(The warrior continues attacking with nearly all his water and ice spells......all proving to be almost useless against the mighty balrock.....almost out of ideas, he reaches deep into his arsenal for his strongest ice spell....)

I have but one more spell to try....but I'll need time...(thinking aloud)...I can paralyze its sight!! Yesss!! Hahahaha!!! It's worth a try....WITH YOUR LIGHT BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN, BLIND THE EYES OF MY ENEMY!!! Sito'constiturus!! (throws his hands up aiming at the balrocks eyes) HAAAAAAAAAAHH!!
::Earle

(the balrock begins growling and whining in pain as its eyes are blinded....Earle then casts his ultimate ice spell...)

YOU WHO ARE MINDLESS! CAST THYSELF UNTO ETERNAL SUFFERING! YE WHO BURNS AMONG THE LIVING, SHALL BE FROZEN FOR ALL ETERNITY!!! GOTORU Fe'vacto Cahsin'frozor!!!!
::Earle

GRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH (begins freezing) RRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
::balrock

(the great beast is then covered and encased in ice for all eternity!!.....or so Earle thought.......)

Haha! Maybe I didn't kill you, but defeated none the less!! (mocking tone) Hah...great beast! Sadly not strong enough for dealing with my power!
::Earle

(the ground begins to shake as Earle walks away....he turns in surprise, and sees the ice begins to shatter around the balrock....it soons frees itself from Earle's enchantment...)

What......what the hell is this...how do I rid myself of this demon....I refuse to back down from this fight!! (thinking) Perhaps...thats it! Why didn't I think of it sooner... ::Earle

(the balrock enraged by the warriors' last attack, then whips at Earle with its tail.....catching him off guard while he's thinking...)

Haha...I've discovered how to defeat you...........aaaaaaah (tail whips him into a stone wall)..........ooohf!!
::Earle

(the balrock attacks again...Earle injured casts "Baldo'tekontis" creating an orb of protection around him, but it is broken as the balrock is much too powerful for that spell.....Earle plans to seal the demon back in the stone with the very same spell Zekrelic used to unleash it.....only he needs some time for such a spell.....and with the balrocks constant attacks it seems hopeless.....until...)

I've got it.....ehehm...ehem......(thinking) I need time.....if it's the only way...I'll give it another try...(aloud) WITH YOUR LIGHT BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN, BLIND THE EYES OF MY ENEMY!!! Sito'constiturus!! (throws hands up once again aiming at the demons' eyes) HAAAAAAAAAAHH!!
::Earle

RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!! (blinded again) ::balrock

Here goes......YOU WHO ARE MINDLESS! CAST THYSELF UNTO ETERNAL SUFFERING! YE WHO BURNS AMONG THE LIVING, SHALL BE FROZEN FOR ALL ETERNITY!!! GOTORU Fe'vacto Cahsin'frozor!!!!
::Earle

(once again the balrock is frozen.....soon to free itself again...)

Now!! (running & grabbing the stone) "....VIGNU'EN FUTROI EHT EGCIL'GU, VIGNU'EN FUTROI EGCIL'GU WUIQ'ON'GU PUIZ JIIVUTE'REO!....EGCIL'GU IEM URH'FIKE PUIZ I LIIJOUN!! Frivigor'Mezesti'tekanbiira!!" {....BRING FORTH THE POWER, BRING FORTH POWER STRONGER THAN HOARDES!....POWER MORE RUTHLESS THAN A LEGION!! Frivigor'Mezesti'tekanbiira!! }
::Earle

RAAAAAHH....GRRRAAAAAAWWWWHH... (a shining light streams out from the stone surrounding the beast) RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA....
::balrock

(the balrock fights to stay free, as Earle holds strong the spell....injured badly the warrior drops to his knees with his hands still held high.....he continues the enchantment until the demon is completely sealed away in the stone...)

HYAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! BEGONE DEMON!!! BEEEGOOOONNNNEEE!!! (light fades and stone falls to ground)......hu....hu....heh......hu......whew... (picks up stone, and sits on ground)....a dangerous choice that Zekrelic made....perhaps there is more to this than just him....there is someone out there with far greater power if they were to capture such a creature...as for this, I think I'll just keep this as a souvenier....
::Earle

(the warrior gets up and limps off into the darkness of this land.....he's off to uncover Zekrelic's purpose....and more about himself...as he slowly regains familiar memories...)


[Several months from that day.....]

(Its been almost 18 months since Earle came upon this realm through the "mystics' cavern" and yet he has still not found a way out...he is slowly regaining his memory of his purpose for being sent to this realm...his visions are reoccuring, and lead to no specific answers....but day by day, and piece by piece the warrior puts his past together........his memories are like puzzle pieces scattered around his mind...connecting one by one they form a doorway to his reason, his purpose.....)

How...how have I come to this.....my memories are surfacing, but I feel it is not fast enough....I want to know why I am seeing visions of companions I've no other recollections of...what are their names....where is this place I keep seeing in my mind....these are things I must know.....I see one name in my memories and it is that of "Dolf" and it brings a chill to my spine.....he must be some enemy of mine.....I must return to this world I see in my visions! Of that I am sure!! As for now I must continue my journey toward, Ozaekai! He is the only one who I believe can return me to my realm..... ::Earle

(In Earle's time in this realm he has learned of many different creatures...he has learned many different magicks...but none like that of Ozaekai.....Ozaekai is the very individual Earle sought to find after his battle with the balrock nearly 10 months ago...the warrior still searches for him, and up til now has only heard of him...before Earle had destroyed Zekrelic he had learned this "Ozaekai" was the one pulling his strings.....Ever since, Earle has been on a quest to find him...its been roughly 6 months...he somehow always remains a step behind him....until.....)

This time I'm gonna track him down for sure! I can feel it!.....Im so close! I always fall a step behind.....I've picked up my pace and now I will finally meet this "Ozaekai" face to face...if that damned Zekrelic's words were true then he should have answers for me....he might even be able to tell me how to get out of this forsaken realm!! ::Earle

(Earle begins having a flashback)

"Oni'kk uyo du ju'honis ino ou oni de'mi kah ino du mulak...hahaha!!"
{You'll have to defeat me if you wish for me to talk...hahaha!!}
::Zekrelic

"Wui ta emseb no'kk rem neet'en na eht insuw'gub no'i ekse....kah gaam'en oni...hak reb!"
{Then it seems I'll be getting all the answers I seek....for killing you...is easy!}
::Earle

"No'eu iktoh ehze...oniir jgorul iktoh rem riijen du rohl Ozaekai, qeuh'mi zarkloi!"
{We shall see...your soul shall be cast to lord Ozaekai, foolish creature!}
::Zekrelic

"Ozaekai!? Orgo hak mot.........?!"
{Ozaekai!? Who is that.........?!}
::Earle

"HOEHM!!! Nokfiir'Hotudiire!!"
{DIE!!! (attacking full force with sword and magick spell) Nokfiir'Hotudiire!!}
::Zekrelic

(casting spell which surrounds himself with streams of fire, stopping him from being attacked, and the enemy from defending)

"Haha! No'i ceo'le ta tahn oniir dio du hoehm! I qeuh'mi iis yude i terehta wriorah! Nyse'getai Yume'fiiz!!"
{Haha! I said it was your day to die! A foolish attempt from a pathetic warrior! Nyse'getai Yume'fiiz!!}
::Earle

(Earle whom is far stronger than Zekrelic in all aspects casts a spell which sends Zekrelic soaring straight into the smoggy sky.....)

"UEES!! Orga uyo oni.......aaaaaaaaahhhh!!"
{NOOO!! What have you.......aaaaaaaaahhhh!!}
::Zekrelic

(Zekrelic then comes crashing down to the ground, breaking nearly every bone in his body...Earle then proceeds to retrieve information from the dying warrior)

"Oni sh'kren uyo jiun we'gu puiz du setauzii yiigh ino Zekrelic! Iuw oni iikta muuhl ino ou tyrhak Ozaekai!"
{You should have known better than to quarrel with me Zekrelic! Now you will tell me of this Ozaekai!}
::Earle

"Haha!....No'kk muuhl oni....oum'zy rem'skau...ta cov'eer pyt'gu ou oni jiu e eer nehv oni kren...ju'honis liij..."
{Haha....I'll tell you....only because...it doesn't matter if you know or not....not even you could...defeat him...}
::Zekrelic

"Haha oniir ma gahv bahu'te mot! Vyiuga chorg reh'zy no'i veq'spauakt ou oni!"
{Haha your so sure about that! Look how easily I disposed of you!}
::Earle

(Zekrelic is slowly fading, weezing and coughing as he tells Earle of Ozaekai)

"No'i xe ues'yub'en du Ozaekai...ou oni noeuir du poztroun...liij....hehe....lii wo'kren...ruc'mu oni..."
{I am nothing to Ozaekai...if you were to confront...him....hehe....he would...crush you...}
::Zekrelic

"No'eu iktoh ehze...orga hak liib egcil'gu? Orga kham'reo liij ma te'civn'xii?"
{We shall see...what is his power? What makes him so invincible?}
::Earle

"Ozaekai hak i rem'en orgo jiub na...jiib egcil'gu ta luuvalriakt, tah hak liib smidow...oni...noc'eer....wi..k...."
{Ozaekai is a being who knows all...his power is unrivaled, as is his wisdom...you...can't....wi..n....}
::Zekrelic

(Zekrelic dies...Earle, with no regret walks off on his quest for the mysterious Ozaekai)
********************************************************************************

(leaving flashback)

Ah yes! I remember it well...according to Zekrelic the creature Ozaekai should have unrivaled wisdom.....perhaps a meeting with him will help my mind regain its memories, and I will truly know my purpose....despite the possibility that this creature might be more powerful than me, I must find out the answers to all my questions...I must know my purpose and my past if I am to have a future!
::Earle

(at that very moment Earle had stumbled upon a cave...or cavern perhaps...he could sense a strong aura emulating from within the cavern...the warrior then takes it upon himself to venture in...slowly and carefully he continues on...the cavern then opens up into a huge room...a creature appears before him wearing a fancy black robe, with dark purple trim...the creature turns to Earle and begins to speak...but the most surprising thing is that this is the first creature among this realm that Earle had encountered, that speaks Earle's language...)

Earle I presume... (turning to Earle) I see you were finally able to catch up...hehe! Not that it wasn't fun leading you along all this time.....but I found it rather boring that it took this long for you to appear before me...
::Ozaekai

Hah! I don't know how you know my name or how your able to speak my language, but you cant expect me to believe that you've known about me following you this whole time.....If you knew, then why let me catch you, or why lead me around in the first place?!....Since when did my presence become known to you anyway?!?!
::Earle

Hahahaha!! You? I've known about you for some time now. Hah! Since you step foot in my world! I've been watching you and observing your skills...I must say you've improved much in your stay in my world...but it seems you forgot why you were sent here in the first place...hahahahaha!! Pathetic, all that power for nothing! ::Ozaekai

...and I suppose you know why I'm here! Since you seem to know everything else....
::Earle

Of course I know your purpose for being sent to my world....I know it well...but it is of no use telling you! You don't simply step in & out of my realm...
::Ozaekai

You mean you just won't tell me...well if you know how much my skills improved you know damned well I can wipe your sorry soul from your own world, so you should tell me the answers I seek or face my wrath!!
::Earle

Oooo...aren't we the scary one! Save your empty threats for the inferior goblins! If you want out of my realm the only way is defeating me, and your skills as far as they've come, are still not enough! I won't just allow you to use my realm for advancing your skills...THIS IS MY WORLD!! NOT A TRAINING GROUND FOR INFERIOR CREATURES SUCH AS YOU!! If you want to know your past...if you want to see your world again...you must defeat me in combat!!
::Ozaekai

Easier said than done! I must recover my past & return to my world! Your defeat is a certainty!
::Earle

Take your best shot if your so sure of yourself! (standing in an unguarded stance) Perhaps you must realize how useless this fight is through your own eyes! ::Ozaekai

(Earle believing that the Ozaekai's words might have some truth to it...attacks first with his strongest ice spell...)

Let's see how you handle this......YOU WHO ARE MINDLESS! CAST THYSELF UNTO ETERNAL SUFFERING!.... ::Earle

Haha! I see being cautious and using your strongest ice spell first...... ::Ozaekai

...YE WHO BURNS AMONG THE LIVING, SHALL BE FROZEN FOR ALL ETERNITY!!! GOTORU Fe'vacto Cahsin'frozor!!!!
::Earle

(ice begins to form around Ozaekai.....until...)

Hmm...........
::Ozaekai

Hahaha!! How's that feel? It appears your greatest power is in you boasting!! Hahaha............huh....
::Earle

(Ozaekai quickly flashes with a bright light, and the ice spell is broken...)

Hmmm...(dusting off his robe)...Do I look like a balrock?
::Ozaekai

........................................................................................
::Earle

I hope you've learned something from this....listen and listen well...this will be the first & last attack of our so called battle.....
::Ozaekai

(Earle in shock from his rivals power cannot move...he stands unguarded and in awe...knowing that whatever Ozaekai's attack is...he cannot repel or defend from such a power....for the first time Earle has felt pure fear & terror from an enemy...)

..........................................................................................
::Earle

FROM HELL AND BACK, FROM THE BLADE OF DEATH'S SCYTHE, AND THE HEART OF EVIL.....UNLEASH YOUR POWER....UNLEASH YOUR RAGE!!!! Constantine'Apocalyptica'Requiem!!!!! (a dark purple glare surrounds Earles view) ::Ozaekai

AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!.........................GWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
::Earle

(Earle's body is then lifted into the air and his limbs begin to break....soon his skin begins to feel cold, and appears to be covered in a purple flame....the pain is so intense that Earle passes out......Ozaekai laughs and walks off into the darkness...)

Muahaha!! You will never leave this realm! Hahahah!!..................(walking off)
::Ozaekai


[5 months pass since then...]

(Along a path, Earle can be seen floating....his limbs appear to still be damaged...but it seems he has learned a strong levitation skill....He still searches for Ozaekai, knowing full well he has a slim to none chance of defeating him....but he must regain his past and return to his companions....over these 5 months Earle has improved one skill more than any, that is his focus...he is capable of combining a spell & his focus so well that he can effectively strengthen any of his spells powers 10 fold.....he is even capable of a skill such as telepathy)

If I confront Ozaekai once again I might not survive but I must attempt it, even if it is simple sacrifice.....If there's one thing I remember from my memories, it's that my mission was worth dying for...if thats true I must take the risk! Here I come Ozaekai! Stand ready because your going to be seeing a lot of me! Hahahahha!!
::Earle

(Earle exits on his quest.....)
