The Odyssey of Zelphar

[Eyrev 33]

This happened to my character before he arrived in Aegis. I hope you like it :)

The Odyssey of Zelphar Part 1

One day I was relaxing in my garden until it hit me!

If I am in comryr and I cant teleport home how will I

know which direction to go? So I climbed the tallest

mountain near my house and started to build an

overhead cobblestone bridge leading in the direction

of Comryr so I could find my Sancturary by following

the cobblestone bridge overhead. I was making the

bridge until I spotted a peculiar entrance into a

mountain. I extended the bridge to the entrance to

investigate. There was a wooden door sorrounded by

cobblestone with a sign that said "The Arcanium, The

Weaver's guild DO NOT ENTER" on the right there was

another sign that said "Weaving, wisdom, peace,

power." On the left there was another sign that said

"Arcanus Dearai Zornatra" I ventured down into the

entrance in excitement of what to find. When I first

entered there was a whole room with redstone marks on

the cobble ground a crafting table to my left, and a

furnace to my right. There was a set of stairs and I

went down them. There was a room with a sign above it

that said "Ignatus's Private study, Enter and be

DEWOVEN." This frightened me but I ventured into the

study. It was a cozy little room with a bed, and a

small book case, but I wouldn't call it a study. I

exited the room and continued down the staircase. I

came to a stop and there were two signs the one to my

left said "Dorms" and the one to my right said "study

hall". I went to the study hall first.

I came across a giant room with no bookcases in it or

chairs, just a broken wall infront of me. There was a

sign that said "Sss... Closed for Construction." This

meant that this was currently being built.... or the

people here died... and never finished this place.

Something or someone didn't want them in this

mountain. I went back and this time went to look at

the dorms. The sign was misleading, it led my to a

room of dirt and cobble. I was dissapointed... this

place was abandoned. But why? As I was leaving the

place to continue my Cobble bridge the redstone in the

first room glowed an overwhelming bright red. I then

heard a booming voice say "HOW DARE YOU INTRUDE ON MY

LANDS, PREPARE TO BE DEWOVEN JUST LIKE THE OTHERS WHO

TRIED TO BUILD HERE!" In terror I ran out and back to

my Cobble Bridge. Right when I was close a powerful

forc of wind slingshotted me back to the abandoned

Arcanium. I thought to myself "This is it... I am

going to die... this is how it all ends.... my story

ends here... I won't be the philospher I hoped to be,

I won't go back to Detronoe and grow old there,

instead I will die in a cold lonely abandoned cobble

Arcanium... no one in the Tetra would even know im

dead." I lay there in the redstone room of the

Arcanium with the only light being the bright red

light illuminating the room making it a hellish scene.

The being manifested itself physically. I saw glimpses

of this being while the redstone flickered on and off.

It was terrifying. The being was about 8 ft tall and

had horns, long ears, dark blue skin, orange markings

on face and chest, no shirt, blood shot eyes, eyes,

large fangs, four arms, long black barbed wirey hair,

and a giant sword with blood seeping from it. The

being said "It is time for your ending!" The being

approached me... I was in pure terror. The being

laughed evily while he put his arms up and scorpions

came from a dark portal behind him. I tried running

out of the Arcanium again but the being laughed in a

demented way and yelled " YOUR DEATH HERE IS MORE

IMMINENT THEN YOUR BIRTH!" I yelled back "I AM SORRY

FOR INTRUDING JUST LET ME GO!"

The being yelled " KAEL GOD OF MURDER NEVER LETS HIS

VICTIMS GO!" I was suprised that this was acutally

Kael the god of murder and Dark Elves. Kael threw an

obsidian crecent moon at me, the crescent moon cut me

across my chest. Blood leaked from me. As I saw so

much of my own blood on the cobble floor flashbacks of

me murdering that child when I was only seven years

old came into my mind. I was in awe at the sight of so

much of my blood, all I could do was slowly look up at

Kael while his scorpions crawled towards me and he was

about to swing his sword at me. Kael was laughing.

Time all of the sudden slowed down and I spotted

Velkarith in the corner of the room waving to me. I

smiled and then Velkarith illuminated the whole room

with a burst of energy lowering his vibrations to

manifest himself as a physical being. Velkarith took

out his sword and killed all of the scorpions in a

blur of light. Kael was shocked at what he was seeing.

Kael threw Crescent moons at Velkarith but Velkarith

just dodged them and said "Kael I am much much older

than you, your redstone light shows, crawling

scorpions, and gruesome appearance does not scare me,

the best choice here is to back down and not try to

fight me, I will slay you Kael." Kael then laughed and

said "GAURDIAN OF THE INTRUDER, I AM THE SON OF

GRESKIX THAT MEANS I HAVE BEEN IN THIS UNIVERSE VERY

LONG!" Velkarith chuckled and said "Kael, i've been

here since the very first universe, which was about 90

centillion years ago... you are a mere child compared

to me, so stop throwing your play things, and stop

speaking jargon of murder before I send you right back

to where you really came from... the nether." Kael

charged Velkarith with his sword in anger, Velkarith

instantly smashed the hilt of his sword into Kael's

forehead, knocking Kael to the floor. Kael lay on the

ground crawling for his sword. Velkarith stepped on

Kael's hand and took his sword. Velkarith broke Kael's

sword in half and sent it to the Zecraimux. Kael tried

to kick Velkarith from the ground but Velkarith smiled

and twisted Kael's leg. Velkarith stood over Kael

putting his sword to Kael's neck as Kael screamed in

pain and agony. I watched as this battle of epic

proportions took place right infront of me. Velkarith

said to Kael "Now tell me what have you been doing to

the people building here? We all know you are not

capable of weaving..." Kael cried out "I DEWOVE THEM

ALL!" Velkarith in anger jammed the hilt of his sword

into Kael's wirey hair and tied the hair to the hilt.

Kael screamed in pain and admitted "I JUST TRANSPORTED

THEIR SOULS INTO THE ANIMALS NEARBY!" Velkarith said

"Then what did you do?" Kael said "Thats all I did!"

Velkarith chuckled and dragged Kael by the hair with

his Sword's hilt across the room and out to the

mountain holding Kael over the edge of the mountain

threatening to un tie the hair from the hilt making

Kael plummet to his death. Kael was terrified and

cried out "I THEN ATE THEM!! I ATE THE ANIMALS WITH

THE PEOPLE'S SOULS INSIDE THEM!" Velkarith angerily

said " KAEL YOU KNOW THAT SENDS THEM TO THE NETHER FOR

ETERNITY DONT YOU?" Kael said defiantly "YES THATS WHY

I DID IT!" Velkarith dragged Kael by the hair with his

sword's hilt to a tree stump and propped Kael's head

on top of the stump and then repeatedly bashed Kael's

face into the tree stump with a diamond hammer. Bloody

entrails were everywhere and Kael's face was no more.

Velkarith untied his sword's hilt from Kael's hair and

threw Kael's lifeless body off the mountain. I thanked

Velkarith and we embraced eachother on top of the

mountain. Velkarith said "I will always protect you

Zelphar". Velkarith teleported back to the Sancturary

and healed my wound. After the incident with Kael I

continued to build my Cobblestonebridge, it was

getting really dark I was low on cobble only had three

more pieces left. As I placed my last piece I

plummeted down into a giant frozen lake... I broke the

ice piece just before I fell so I landed in water... I

could have died. It was really dark and monsters were

everywhere. I used stealth and was not noticed by any

of the monsters while navigating this frozen

wasteland. I walked for hours until I saw a light in

the distance coming from a hole in the endless snow. I

ran to it in hopes that it was a sign of sapient

beings or an abandoned camp that I can get some food

from. Once I reached the light there was no Sapient

beings, or a camp... instead there was a pool of lava.

It was the only light and I had no torches so I made a

makeshift cobble cave and spent the night near the

lava. when I woke up there was a group of skeletons

outside the cave... they were not burning because the

sun was still rising. I beat one of them to death with

my fists but ran from the others. Exhausted and

wounded from the skeleton's arrows I still ventured

on. The snow still seemed neverending... so many false

hopes seeing caves and hoping to find the slightest

sign of sapience... a torch would be nice. I was day

time and I was starving. I killed a chicken and ate it

raw. I felt sick and threw up all over the snow...

this was terrible. I spotted a cave and heard running

water inside. I was excited and ventured down into it.

I saw water gushing from the cave wall. I went to take

a sip but I fell into the current and the water took

me deeper into the cave. I ended up in a large dark

room. I drank the water and explored the room. I heard

rustling in the far end of the Cave room. I was

curious so I went towards the noise in the darkness.

The rustling became louder as I ventured farther into

the room. I bumped into a scaly wall and I was

confused since it was dark. I felt along the wall and

it came to a round end. I heard snoring. A loud snore

from this wall. At this point I knew it was not a

wall. I walked slowly back towards the sound of the

water to climb out of the cave trying not to wake the

creature up. I was close to the water, I could see the

small beam of light. All of the sudden I see my shadow

infront of me on the Cave wall, the room illuminates

orange and I feel intense heat just inches away from

my back. I hear a loud roar behind me and it shakes

the fibers of my body. The room darkens again and I

hear loud footsteps walking behind me. Something big

is in here. I get instantly hit across the cave room

by a giant scaley tail. I lay on the ground in terror

because I cannot see this creature. The creature blows

fire and it illuminates the room allowing me to see a

glimspe of its face. The face had giant nostrils,

demonic eyes, green scales, small yellow horns on its

head, and a giant open mouth with sharp teeth. I ran

and the fire burned my arm. I fell to the floor in

pain. I curled up into a ball hoping the creature

wouldnt sense me. All of the sudden I heard a loud

chomp like two sets of large teeth being smashed

together infront of me. Then I felt warm and I was on

a soft wet surface. Still in the fetal position I felt

like I was drifting down a wet gooey tube. It was

strangely comforting. I didn't know what was

happening. Then the sensation stopped and I fell down

into a hot foul smelling pool of what felt like vomit.

I instantly jumped out of it and landed on a gooey but

sturdy surface in this pool. I felt this surface to

know what it was and I felt wooden planks. I thought

it couldnt be... then a wave of flame illuminated the

place I was in and went up into the tube I came down

in. I saw the walls of this place and I knew that it

was a stomach... I have been swallowed by this titanic

cave dwelling fire breathing beast. Also the surface I

was on was a medium sized boat that could hold about

10 people. That frightened me. How did this creature

eat a boat if he lives in a cave? I know no one is

going down the cave stream in a boat this big. I broke

off a piece of wood from the boat and made 4 torches

with some coal I had. I held a torch in my left hand

while rowing the boat with an oar that was on the

boat. The stomach was what I expected a giant stomach

to look like... all pink and vainy... and smelly. The

liquid I was rowing through was a hot yellow vomit

looking liquid and it was everywhere. This I knew was

the stomach acids. Not acidic enough to digest the

boat though. There were no other objects in this

stomach besides the boat I was in. It was pure

darkness sorrounding my small light. I knew that the

only way out was to go through the intestines but I

would have to go through to stomach acid without being

broken down. Since the boat didnt burn in the acid and

it was a medium sized boat for 10 people I cut up the

boat with a axe i made out of the boat's wood. I put a

piece over me so I was encased in a small wooden

capsule. I used tree sap from the saplings I had to

make the pieces of wood stick together. I then filled

the inside with sand and that made it weigh enough to

sink down into the acid with me inside. I was sinking

for what seemed like forever but it was only for about

an hour. I finally hit the bottom of the stomach I

felt the wooden capsule I was in jolt. I didn't know

what to do now so I just fell to sleep in this

capsule. I woke up on a pink gooey surface. The

capsule was cracked open. I opened my eyes and

everything was lit up. I was at the entrance to the

intestines. Behind me was a small pool of stomach

acid. I was confused as to what happened to my capsule

and how I got here. I was happy that I was closer to

leaving this beast. I explored the large pink vainy

place I was in. I came across a gate made of wood with

a sign that said "Welcome to the town of the

digested." I chuckled at the name and walked towards

the gate. A human male from the watchtower above said

"Halt who goes there? State your business here." I

said "I am Zelphar Autmnfire of the Tetra I have been

swallowed by this beast and I am looking to exit." The

man laughed hysterically and said "Well make yourself

comfortable because theres no way out of here, come on

in outsider." The gates opened and I entered the town.

The buildings were made out of fecal matter and

wood... it was a disgusting sight. The place smelled

horrid. The people were deformed and I didn't know

why. A gaurd with three eyes and only 4 teeth escorted

me to the person who runs this place. The building was

a giant wooden spire. I entered through the large

double doors and walked up a long spiral staircase. I

reached the top of the spire where the throne room

was. The leader of this town was a white rabbit man...

I have never seen this before... he had blood shot

eyes and was tall and very jittery. He wore raggedy

clothes and was eating a deformed dwarf. I was so

disgusted and terrified by the sight of this. The

rabbit man yelled "WHAT DO YOU WANT WHO ARE YOU!!!!!"

I said in terror "I am Zelphar Autumnfire of the

Tetra". The rabbit man said "I never heard of em

*takes at bite of the deformed dwarf* what do you want

from my town Zelldar?" I then ignored how he said my

name wrong and said "I just want to get out of this

beast's body, can you please help me?" The rabbit man

said "First off my name is Lygas, and if there was a

way out OUT OUR ANSCESTORS WOULD OF LEFT ALONG TIME

AGO AND WE WOULDN'T BE HERE! Well except for Tritagus

over there... but nobody loves him *laughs

hysterically and spits out a bone*" I then said "Well

theres got to be a way out... and I will find it... so

anyway tell me about your people and the history of

them." Lygas said "Ok... first off my name is

Lygas..." I interuppted and said "Uh you already

mentioned your name..." Then he yelled "SHUT UP NO I

DIDNT NO I DIDNT *bites his pinkie finger off and

spits it at Zelphar*" I was terrified and then said "

Please continue..." Then Lygas continued and said

"Well years ago like probably 98 years ago a group of

treasure hunters that called themselves the Diamond 8

ventured down into a remote cave in search the famed

treasure of Naercrest the Clever, they stumbled upon a

stream and they followed it to a beast that breathed

fire, they called the beast Al'makus the beast

consumed them. By the way the Diamond 8 consisted of

one dwarf, two demons, 2 humans, and 3 elves. They

found their way to the spot of this town, couldn't

find a way out of Al'makus, so they built a wooden and

fecal town and named it the town of the Digested ones.

They breeded and made strange race hybrids. Eventually

it became inbreeding because their offsprings had

babies together and those babies had babies together

and you get the point." I then said "How are you a

rabbit and how are there animal people here?" Lygas

said " Because they also brought along small animals

such as pigs and rabbits, so.... you know what

happened..." I then said "Oh...do you know anywhere I

could stay over night?" Lygas said "My wife is a pig

lady, and yes you can stay at Sektus's grand inn on

the east side of town." Lygas pressed a button and I

fell through a poorly made tube and landed in a pile

of fecal matter and rabbit fur. I was disgusted and I

walked over to Sektus's inn. As soon as I opened the

door I saw Sektus behind his counter... he had insect

attenas, human face, cow hooves, and a sheep body. I

cringed at the sight. The patrons of course were an

odd cast of people also but I won't go into how they

looked. I approached Sektus and said "Can I have a

room?" Sektus said "Your so handsome... I love you..."

I was terrified but kept my composure and said "Uh...

how much for the room?" Sektus said "Only 4 acid coins

handsome..." I said " I do not come from here so I

have different currency..." Sektus said " Well give me

four of that then *smiles*" I then handed him the

coins and he escorted me to my room. The bed was made

of fecal matter and wood. I put sand on top of it to

make it the slightest bit safer. I then astral

projected that night. In astral projection I walked

out of the inn and went back to the place I landed

with my capsule. I went into the acid pool since it

wont hurt me if im astral projecting. I flew deep to

the bottom of the pool and saw a hole that was the

real entrance the intestines and there was my exit. I

went back into my body. I woke up the next morning to

Sektus staring at me in a menancing way without

blinking or saying a word. I slowly left the room and

he was still standing over my bed. I ran out of the

inn then went to the local shop. They only sold wood

and fecal matter. I bought as much wood as I could. I

went to where I landed at the entrance of the town and

built myself another capsule. Just when I was about to

get in it I heard Lygas yell from the gate "WHERE DO

YOU THINK YOUR GOING ZELLDAR???" I was scared and

jumped in the capsule. Lygas jumped on the capsule

clawing at it and biting it. The capsule sunk down

with Lygas on top of it. Lygas's blood seeped into the

capsule. I directed the capsule towards the bottom of

the acid pool. I reached the real entrance to the

intestines. I felt strange going down the intestines

it was a bumpy ride. My capsule wasn't holding out

though it was being broken down by the intestines. I

was terrified for my life. I saw darkness that meant I

was almost out of the beast. I jumped for the exit and

the intestines broke down my shoe. My shoe digested

and I was alive. I fell out of the Beast's back side

and into the cave again. I got out of my wooden

capsule and laughed in joy then ran out of the cave

before the beast noticed. I was out back into the

snowy wasteland and I was starving. I needed some food

quick. I saw a strange looking animal in the distance.

When I got to this creature a giant worm with a spike

on its head blasted out of the snow I ran to a hole in

the snow and hid from the beast in terror. The beast

inspected the hole with its head sniffing for signs of

me. I took out a feather and tickled under its nose

with it. This made the beast sneeze. All the snow in

the hole was blown away. The beast could only smell

snow that filled the hole... but I could see the way

out of the hole. Since the beast had no eyes and I

did. I was out of the hole and I saw the beast's head

in the hole. I covered his head in snow and put wood

over the hole with his head in it. The beast was stuck

there forever now. It was night now so I ran for miles

and miles, just running hoping that I would reach

civillization soon. My running was cut short by a

skeleton. I hit the skeleton and stunned it then ran

because there were more skeletons with it. I dug a

hole in the snow and buried my self in there until

morning... I fell to sleep here for the night. I awoke

to daylight. I exited the hole and set out to find a

pig. I found a pig and ate it. I was refreshed. I

continued my journey to find civillization. I have

reached the grasslands and have exited the snowy

wastelands. I found a lake and I drank from it to

replenish my energy. I continued travelling. I was at

a stop when I was faced with a large lake to cross. I

went to chop down some trees in order to build a boat.

I built the boat and rowed in a straight direction.

The waves picked up and a storm started. My boat was

sent off course into a cave with a river going through

it. It was dark in this cave and I was still in my

small wooden boat. I heard bats in this cave. I heard

something rise out of the water but I could not see

it. I was scared. Then I felt hundreds of tentacles

touching me and my boat. They picked me up from my

boat and threw me into the water. I was underwater and

in the dark now. I was panicing, the storm was raging

and this tentacled beast was in the cave with me. I

swam out of the cave leaving my boat with the beast.

It was still storming but I climbed the cave exterior

and reached land. I came across a giant flat surface

that was feet into the ground. I couldn't believe my

eyes! This was amazing... I went to investigate. I

found strange markings that were not from any known

race in the universe. Immediately a group of zombies

and skeletons sorrounded me. I dug straight down and I

fell into a dark cavern. I went into the far end of

the cavern and built a small dirt wall to protect me.

Inside the wall I made torches with spare wood I had

from the boat and some coal. I also made a crafting

table so I can make some tools and weapons. Instantly

I found iron using my wooden pick. I then mined cobble

and made a stone pick so I could get some iron. I

mined five iron ore. I mined some more cobble to make

a furnace so I can smelt the iron ore I mined. I used

the left over coal I had to smelt the iron ore. I fell

to sleep on the cold hard stone floor to the sound of

rain outside. I had a dream that night where I was

back at the markings and they were glowing bright

green this time. Velkarith was there and he told me

that by the end of this journey I will be enlightened

beyond belief and he told me that the markings are

from his people. The dream ended. I woke up and

collected the iron bars I smelted and I crafted an

iron pick and an iron sword. Water flooded the cavern

and the cave was crumbling down I quickly gathered all

of my materials and left to continue my journey. After

miles and miles of navigating treacherous terrain I

was faceing A huge mountain in a sprawling desert. I

needed to find some food so I will have enough energy

to climb this mountain. I got some pork and some water

then started up the mountain. The mountain was a

treacherous mountain and I almost fell off many times.

I found a cave in the mountain to sleep the night in.

As I got comfortable on a sheep skin I heard a loud

banging noise at the back of the cave. Suddenly a

large candle lit up and it illuminated showing a huge

table and chair. I hid behind the leg of the table. A

huge man with the upper body of a human and the lower

body of a sheep came from the darkness of the cave and

sat down on the chair. He was about 14 feet tall. I

looked as he devoured two titanic plates of normal

sized pigs. One fell to the floor right in front of

me. He bent down to pick it up and saw me... I stood

still in silence. I waved and said "Hello there... I

am Zelphar Autumnfire a proud member of the Tetra, who

are you?" He instantly flew into a rage and tried to

smash me with his fist. I ran away and he kept trying

to smash me but he kept missing because I was too

quick for him. I tried to yell for him to stop and be

civil but it was to no avail. I was backed into a

corner and he raised his fist... I was terrified and I

was sure that I would be crushed. His fist stopped

right above my head and dropped a piece of pork the

perfect size for me. I was confused. The giant then

said happily "My name is Fro-oro-eros, where are you

heading... up mountain or down mountain?" I then said

while chewing some pork "I am going to the top of the

mountain." I will just call this Giant Fro since his

name is long. So Fro said "I can help you get up

mountain quicker way, but not at night, you can sleep

here if you want Zelphar." I said "It would be a

pleasure to spend the night here Fro-oro-eros." Fro

said "Care for some mead Zelphar?" I said "A little

mead won't hurt thank you for the kind gesture." Fro

smiled and handed me the mead. I don't usually consume

alcoholic beverages but I had to drink this one since

he offered me it. I drank the mead and I acutally

enjoyed it. I got really drunken though and my mind

was not on its proper aura. I was tumbling all over

the place and having a good time laughing and talking

with Fro. While I was drunk I saw a circle of men with

long long pointed ears, black holes for eyes, and

black robes in the torch lit cave, they were my size.

Fro didn't notice them. Me and Fro passed out. When we

woke up I started to ask him about his origins. Fro

told me this "The Race I hail from is called the

Motonpex, The Motonpex used to be a prosperous race

until they were driven from their villages by the

early elves of Aeonis... we tried to crush them with

out blunt weapons and our big feet and hands but they

simply had the gods on their side, fireballs rained

down on our villages, the Motonpex are simply not

meant to live... we are an abomination... we now live

in caves that are on giant mountains like this... I

was born by the stream over there *points towards far

off stream* there was once a small peaceful Motonpex

village there but it was destroyed by a huge fire

caused by lightening, or the gods most likely, the

Motonpex do not like the gods and are againest them

for what they have done to our race, we were a mistake

to the gods.... we were created by the god Greskix but

he forsaked us and made his race of Odarndop that are

now banished to the nether world with him, I

appreciate your company Zelphar." I then said "I

appreciate yours as well... would you like to live in

my sancturary?" Fro said "I am too tall to live

there... but thanks for the offer." I then was picked

up by Fro and walked to the top of the mountain. We

said our goodbyes and then he left back to his cave. I

was tired from the long trip up the mountain so I fell

asleep on the grass on top of the mountain. In the

middle of the night I was awoken to a loud but

unfamilliar sound in the sky. I looked up and I saw a

strange black disc with two long horns sticking out of

the top of it. The disc was giving off a bright green

light. I was in pure awe at the sight of this floating

disc. I felt a hand on my back while I was looking at

this disc. I turned to see Velkarith with tears

rolling down his cheeks. I asked Velkarith "Why are

you so sad?" Velkarith pointed at the disc and said

"You will understand very soon." The disc was

descending down on to the large plateau infront of me,

I was awaiting in anticipation to see why Velkarith

told me I would be sad. I thought this must be

important if Velkarith manifested him self physically

for this. Once the disc finally was on the ground

infront of me I realized that it was titanic in size.

4 beings exited the disc through a large hatch with an

extending metallic bridge that touched the ground

right infront of my feet. The beings had Black holes

for eyes, long long pointed ears, different color

hair, different hair styles, and strange light blue

full body suit. The suits covered everything except

their head. I knew that these were the ancient

Chiropterrans the race that Velkarith hails from. The

tallest one of the four Chiropterrans stepped forward

to me. He had strange light green hair, dark blue

symbols on his face, and two strange red jewels

encrusted with gold in his black hole eyes. I showed

no sign of disgust towards the jewels but in my mind I

was disgusted. He instantly said "Hello Zelphar, we

haven't met... oh and dont mind the jewels in my eyes

their just an accesorie that is popular with

Chiropterrans." I nodded. He continued "I know

Velkarith has told you about his origins and the

Chiropterran people, but Velkarith was never really a

spirit... he was just a higher dimensional being than

you, he still has to die and I know he told you that

he was around 80 centillion years old, but thats only

because he was soul binded to that one spot in space

and time, Chiropterrans sadly only live to be 145

exact, I am sorry Zelphar but Velkarith will die soon

and by Chiropterran tradition he must die with his

people... back on Vivterra our current world in this

universe... since our homeworld Chiropterra died out

centillions of years ago... in the very first

universe." I burst into tears and Velkarith embraced

me while he also cried. The Chiropterran said " On the

bright side, we fixed your time paradox." I was

confused and asked "First of all what is your name,

and second of all what time paradox?" The Chiropterran

said "My name is Burkrasith and you had a time paradox

that went like this, when you were a famous fisherman

years ago in Detronoe you were not supposed to meet

that sage on the balcony... you were supposed to

figure out a way to travel back in time and then

become Velkarith's father... but once you met the sage

and you got to Aeonis, you had to go back in time and

die as Velkarith's father so Velkarith can get soul

bound to the swamp you met him at so you can find him

and come to Aeonis, this paradox was a complete curse

of imminent death, your fate was completely sealed, we

were just going to let you learn from the Tetra and

write lores until you were satisfied enough to move

on, but we discovered an ancient Chiropterren

technology that has been long lost this technology was

a machine that could manipulate time and space itself,

we crafted the life where you were Velkarith's father

into your past life, now you are paradox free... but

Velkarith is still dying and he needs to come back to

his people." I was in complete awe at what I just

heard and said " Thank you so much for destroying the

time paradox I was in, can I at least be with

Velkarith in his final days?" Burkrasith said "

Zelphar I know how close you and Velkarith are so I

will let you come aboard the vehicle and travel to

Vivterra to stay with Velkarith before he dies." I

walked into the disk and said "Thank you Burkrasith."

As soon as me and the Chiropterrans entered the disk

we all turned into a higher frequency of being along

with the disk... my physical body was gone and I was

an astral body just like Velkarith and the rest of the

Chiropterrans. When we were all in the disk it

instantly took off at an overwhelming speed, it came

to an abrupt stop once we passed through the clouds of

Aeonis. Burkrasith said "Zelphar we are outside of

Aeonis, we are in space look at Aeonis from here." I

went to the giant observation window and saw a small

Sphere in the distance, the sphere had large green

lands on it and large bodies of water, I realized that

this was Aeonis. I asked Burkrasith "So when we met

how did you know my name and that I was thinking about

your eye jewels?" Burkrasith said "The Chiropterrans

are telepathic, this means that we can read your mind

and speak to you in your mind." I asked Burkrasith

""How do you speak and understand the language I

speak?" Burkrasith chuckled and said "We don't speak

or understand your language, we are speaking our

language but we have devices in our auras that make

you understand our language and we understand your

language, it translates every language in existance,

even language that doesnt involve vocals, its truly

amazing technology." I had another question so I asked

"What is this strange disk that we are in right now?"

Burkrasith said "This disk is a Interdimensional

Vehicle, for short we call them IDVs, they travel

between the Zecraimux and your physical plane of

existance." I then asked "What is that strange white

bed Velkarith is sleeping in over there?" Burkrasith

said "That is not a bed, that is a life support

system, it keeps beings alive with that blue aura

field that hovers over the system, once we take him

off the system he dies and he becomes a spirit on the

next plane higher from the Zecraimux plane that we

live in, so we are travelling to Vivterra to etch him

up, you can of course talk to him before we etch him

up, I will just lower the tension on the vocals." I

said "Thank you." Burkrasith walked to the system

Velkarith was in and he gently drifted his hand over

Velkarith's throat area and it glowed green. Velkarith

said "Zelphar come here." I walked over to Velkarith.

Velkarith said "The vehicle is nearing Vivterra, in a

few minutes I will be etched, I am sorry Zelphar but

it is my time to go, I have cherished our time

together in this life, I hope in the next life we will

be reunited, here hold this to your nose open the cap

and breath in the fumes from it." I was hesitant and

asked "What is this?" Velkarith said "It is a soul

tracker... once you breath it in... the fumes go into

your soul... making you able to know who I am even

when we reincarnate into different beings." I then

wiped away my tears held Velkarith's deathly pale hand

and asked "Will you know who I am also?" A tear fell

down Velkarith's cheek and he said "No Zelphar I would

not recognize your current incarnate or your next when

I reincarnate, sorry Zelphar but I might shun you and

think your crazy, just please persist and try to be my

friend." I then said "But in my next life I wouldn't

remember you or my current incarnate." Velkarith said

"You will remember me but not your past life, once you

see my incarnate the soul tracker will kick in and you

will instantly be flooded with the feelings you had

for me and all the memories of me will be back, but

not for me, this is my final goodbye Zelphar, you can

turn my old room into anything you want... but please

Zelphar... never forget me..." Velkarith's life

support system failed and Velkarith died right there.

I hugged his dead body and weeped until we got to

Vivterra. Once we got to Vivterra I looked out the

observation window and saw that it was raining very

hard and lightening was striking our Vehicle.

Burkrasith yelled "ATTENTION EVERYONE ON BOARD, THE

VEHICLE HAS BEEN STRUCK BY A STRANGE BLAST OF ENERGY,

THIS IS NOT LIGHTENING, READINGS DESCRIBE IT AS A

HIGHLY DANGEROUS SOLAR BOLT FROM THE STAR VIVTERRA

ORBITS, THE SOLAR BOLT HAS TOOK A GIANT CHUNK OUT OF

THE LOWER PART OF THE VEHICLE!" I was terrified and

yelled "IS THERE ANY WAY TO ESCAPE?" Burkrasith had a

deathly look on his face and said "The only way to

escape is death... the escape pods were in the lower

deck of the vehicle... we are all dead." Burkrasith

gathered up the rest of the Chiropterran crew and got

in a circle. Burkrasith disabled his translator aura

and said "Et yurous buor gwen witchi sofarm." Then

they all kissed eachother on the lips and layed side

by side across the floor of the vehicle. I was so

confused as to what they were doing. A Solar bolt

struck the observation deck of the vehicle where they

were laying down. They all died in a terrible green

crisp. Vaporized before my eyes. Velkarith was still

blissfully laying on the life support system... dead.

I knew I had to get his body to the wall of etching so

I picked up his body took a long look out into the

dark rainy sky infront of me where the observation

deck was destroyed and I jumped out into the rain

falling fast. I looked back and saw the vehicle

falling towards me. I panicked and tried to motion my

self away from the falling vehicle. The vehicle fell

right past me. In relief I sighed and kept drifting

down through the rain not knowing where I was going to

end up. I drifted for what seemed like an eternity. I

finally hit solid ground. I didn't die though because

this ground was strange and it was very soft and

bouncy. I was jumping around in it aimlessly hoping to

find something since I was blinded by the thick fog

and intense rain. All of the sudden I lost grip of

Velkarith's body and he fell into the soft bouncy

ground. I panicked and tried feeling around for him

but only felt the ground. I couldnt see anything

because of the fog. I dove into the ground and I

instantly fell through a deep hole that was lit with

strange giant bright blue lights on all sides. The

walls of this hole were made of a strange material

that was a very shiny green color and was metallic to

the touch. As I was falling I noticed a lifeless

corpse falling meters below me. I knew it was

Velkarith. I used my pick to break a piece of the

shiny green metal of the hole wall and I put it on my

back. This made me fall faster to get to Velkarith's

body. Once I got to his body I let the metal drop down

into the depths of the hole. I was holding Velkarith

and bracing for the worst. I fell into a large pool of

water in a giant room lit with the same blue lights

that were on the walls of the hole. The room was made

of the same green metal. There was a large white shiny

table with ten white shiny elegant chairs around it,

it was a round table. I was exhausted so put Velkarith

in a chair and sat down in the chair next to him. I

fell to sleep in the chair and had no dreams. I woke

up to a strange device pointed at my face. This device

had a small hole at the end, it was small, it was

white with a small glass bump on top of it with blue

energy pulsing within. All of the sudden a blue ball

grew from the small hole and a strange sound was

coming from it. I knew this couldnt be good so I

yelled "HEY PUT THAT DOWN I DON'T WANT ANY TROUBLE!"

The man put down the device and smiled. The man was

tall with red hair and an elegant white vest with

white pants and white shoes, the man was also a

Chiropterran. The man activated his translator and

said "What are you doing down here with that dead

man?" I said "I fell through some soft ground and

ended up here." The man said "That soft ground was the

bog." I asked "The bog?" The man said " The bog is a

large swamp land in the middle of nowhere, this is

supposed to be my secret little hide away." I asked

"What are you hiding from?" The man chuckled, raised

his device back to my face and said "Im hiding from

the Vivterran authorities because of what your boss

framed me for." The man charged up the device again. I

yelled "I DONT WORK FOR ANYONE!" The man said "You

won't be after im done with you." I instantly kicked

the device out of his hand and it shot a bolt of green

energy to the shiny green metal walls of the room. The

bolt ricocheted all over the room and we both ducked

under the round table. I took Velkarith under the

table also to protect his body from the bolt. The man

said "See what you did, now this bolt will stay in my

hideout with chances of killing me every second." I

said "I think I know how to stop the bolt, but I will

only stop it if you lead me to the Etching grounds."

The man laughed and said "Your dead friend needs an

etching... ok fine I will lead you there if you help."

I said "Ok do you have a reflective surface on you?"

The man said "No." I pointed at his hand mirror and

said "Do you want this bolt out or not?" The man

reluctantly handed over the hand mirror. I aimed the

mirror at the bolt and as soon as the bolt hit the

mirror i bashed the mirror with my iron pick and the

bolt finally dispersed into tiny bits of energy. The

man said "Thank you so much, now I believe your not my

enemy, because if you were you would just let that

bolt kill me." I smiled and shook the man's hand. The

man said " By the way my name is Lesarith whats

your's?" I said "My name is Zelphar Autumnfire."

Lesarith said "Fancy name." Lesarith then said "How

about I show you around the place, come on Zel." I

followed Lesarith. Lesarith showed me where he keeps

those devices. I asked "What are those things?"

Lesarith said "Those are solar bolt rifles and

pistols... they shoot high powered solar bolts." I

then followed Lesarith to the next room. Lesarith said

" This is where communicate with my soliders." It was

a giant room with devices that Lesarith would speak

into and get a response back over vast distances. I

asked " You have soliders?" Lesarith said "Yes well

the authorities call them Fersaxes which is a lowly

scavenger animal on Vivterra, but their just trying to

bring us down." I asked "Wait are you a criminal?"

Lesarith said " Listen I fight for the cause... I am

no criminal... im only a criminal in the eyes of the

authorities." I said "So your a rebel?" Lesarith said

"Yes I lead a rebellion againest the Chiropterran

Federation." I then asked "What is there to rebel

againest, what do they do wrong?" Lesarith said "They

were doing great until the new leader was elected two

years ago, his name is Gareith he created laws that

limit your thinking, he put telepathic patrol men

throughout the cities on the four planets owned by

Chiropterra, these patrol men would instantly read

your mind and if there was something bad in your mind

they would slaughter you infront of everyone, Gareith

also used all the money that the federation had to

construct a giant statue of him in every city on all

four planets owned by the Chiropterrans, But I started

this rebellion when Gareith locked my children's

bodies and forced them to live as spirits." Tears roll

down Lesarith's eyes. I asked "How did he lock your

children's bodies?" Lesarith said "My children were

playing together near Gareith's statue one morning, we

lived in New Chiropolis the Capital of the

Chiropterran federation on this planet Vivterra, So

they were tired so they climbed on the statue's

pedestal and sat down, one of them sneezed on the

statue and all of the sudden Gareith and his personal

bodygaurds marched down from the Palace and took the

children, I tried to stop them but there were too many

bodygaurds, they shackled me up and took me to the

palace to watch my two children get their bodies

locked, Gareith put on a glove with tubes of purple

energy going through it, he instantly aimed at the

children and their bodies turned lifeless, he then

opened a canister of green gas and let the children

breath it, then the children served him in the palace,

he took my Children's souls out of their bodies and

replaced them with his dead servant's souls, Gareith

then exiled me from every city in the Chiropterran

Federation." Lesarith then said "So lets go to that

etching ground right?" I then stopped Lesarith from

leaving and said "Wait... I want to help you get your

children back... and I want to bring down Gareith."

Lesarith smiled and said "Lets gather up the troops...

I think its time." Lesarith ran to his communications

room and flipped several switches and turned knobs.

hundreds of screens turned on with a face on them.

Lesarith said "These are all the divisions of Rebels

stationed throughout the Chiropterran Federation." I

nodded and watched Lesarith. Lesarith said to them

"Vile Merge is in action, all rebel divisions meet at

New Chiropolis on planet Vivterra, we are going to

take down Gareith." Lesarith smiled as all the rebel

leaders chanted and cheered. Lesarith said "Ok I will

put your friend's dead body in a preservation machine

to keep the body intact while you scout New

Chiropolis, take this flying device I set it to auto

so you don't have to know where New Chiropolis is

located, Look for rebels hiding outside the city, come

back and tell me if their there." I took the device,

it was a board that was blue and flew high. I flew up

the pit I fell down in and exited into the swamp I

landed in. It was a clear day with no fog, the auto

pilot took control and got me to New Chiropolis in 3

minutes exactly. The city was filled with tall

buildings and small slums at the bottom. I saw the

Palace of Gareith taller then any building there and

made of pure diamond. I looked for the rebels and saw

all of them outside the city setting up camp. I flew

back to Lesarith and told him "Their there." Lesarith

smiled and gave me a gun and himself a gun, Lesarith

then took another flying device and flew with me to

the rebel camp outside New Chiropolis. We landed and

got off the boards. Lesarith spoke into a strange

small metallic device in his hand "All rebels report

to the center of encampment for the plan." Then

Lesarith placed it on the ground infront of him and

turned a knob. The words Lesarith spoke echoed

throughout the encampment and all the rebels came to

him. Lesarith stepped onto a pedestal and spoke into a

device that makes his voice louder. Lesarith said to

the rebels "This is the day where we free everyone

from Gareith's tyranny, this is the day where we

slaughter him and his armies, this is the day where I

will take control over the Federation and bring it

back to its former glory!" All of the rebels cheered

while shooting their guns into the skies. Lesarith

said "Everyone, here is the plan, we will launch a

cataclysm dart into the gate of the city forcing the

entire gate to crumble, then we will charge in with

all of our armies and slaughter every last solider, we

will then launch another cataclysm dart into the

Palace doors once they crumble we will kill all of

Gareith's gaurds, Then we will sorround Gareith and I

will fight him with blades one on one while Zelphar

figures out a way to get my Children back, ok

Fregarith launch the Cataclysm dart!" Fregarith

launched the cataclysm dart at the New Chiropolis gate

and exploded in a firey blast. Lesarith led the armies

into the city to do battle. Solar bolts riddled the

air as men died left and right it was so bloody.

Lesarith was fighting next to me. I couldn't fire the

gun, I said "I am a man of peace, I can't kill another

being." Lesarith said while firing his gun "Fine find

a way into the Palace and think of a way to get my

children back." I said "I will." I then ran into a

tall building and went up a tall staircase to the roof

of the building. Once I was on the roof I took out my

flying board and flew towards the back of the Palace.

I landed on a platform sticking out of the back of the

Palace. I closed my board and opened the door infront

of me. I was all of the sudden in Gareith's bedroom.

Gareith was not in his room but his servants were

making his bed and cleaning up. They were children,

Lesarith's children. I walked up to them and said

"Hello." They both said "Sorry we do not know who you

are, we will notify the gaurd immediately for you are

trespassing." They tried to run out of the room but I

grabbed them and tied them up. I said "I am so sorry,

so very sorry." I took my flying board and jammed

Gareith's door with it so no one can come in. I then

looked through Gareith's room searching for anything

of interest. I was about to give up when I noticed

that the ceiling was the same as the floor and that it

was reflecting everything. I then broke the ceiling

for it was a mirror. Purple energy was all over the

room. All the furniture in the room was moving and

flying across the room. I took the children and hid

inside the closet. I had time to think about what this

purple energy was. In the closet I saw a glove with

tubes going through it. I put on the glove and

realized what I had to do. I opened the closet door

and collected the Purple energy in with the glove.

Purple energy flowed through the tubes. I then aimed

the glove at the children and their bodies went

lifeless. I have reversed the lock on the bodies, now

any spirit can get in the bodies. The children were

back to life. They asked "Where are we?" I said "Your

back home." I untied the children and told them to

stay put. I opened the closet door and saw the Purple

energy merge together creating a strange orange

energy. The orange energy was gravitating towards me.

As it touched my hand, my hand disapeared. I closed

the Closet door so the Children would be safe. The

orange energy was embracing me slowly causing me to

fade away, I had to destroy this orange energy so no

one else would touch it and disapear. I had only one

leg and one arm at this point and the orange energy

was now an expanding sphere. A tear ran down my eye

and I thought about the children. I realized that my

life was not as important as theirs and I had to

protect them. I lunged forward into the center of the

orange energy sphere and all of the orange energy

instantly went into me. I was slowly disapearing but I

smiled at the sight of the orange energy not in the

room. My whole body faded away. I was still in the

bedroom though. I was confused and tried speaking to

the Children. They did not hear me, I realized that I

was a spirit and that my physical body is now my

astral body. I realized that I am now a being of the

highest plane of existance, higher then the Zecraimux

plane that the Chiropterrans lived in. It was like

astral projection, I floated through the bedroom wall

and into the throne room. I saw Lesarith and his

remaining men in the throne room sorrounding Gareith.

I watched what was happening. Lesarith yelled "GAREITH

YOU TOOK MY CHILDREN AWAY FROM ME AND YOU TORTURED THE

PEOPLE OF THE FEDERATION, YOU TOOK AWAY THE GLORY OF

THE CHIROPTERRANS, I CHALLENGE YOU TO A BLADE DUEL!"

Gareith says "So be it I accept your challenge." They

take out their blades and fight. Lesarith instantly

gets his right ear cut off by Gareith's blade,

Lesarith is brought down to one knee in pain and

agony. Gareith laughs and swings his blade at

Lesarith's head while Lesarith is on one knee. The

blade scrapes Lesarith's cheek and Lesarith falls over

onto his back. Gareith walks over to Lesarith and

swings at Lesarith's neck. Lesarith regains Composure

and blocks Gareith's swing with his blade. Lesarith

kicks Gareith in his kneecap and jumps up back on his

feet. Gareith swings his blade at Lesarith but

Lesarith dodges the swing and punches Gareith on the

side of his face. Gareith staggers and Lesarith bashes

the hilt of his blade into Gareith's stomach. Gareith

smiles and slashes his blade at a nearby rope cutting

the rope in two causing a giant fire lamp to fall

above Lesarith. Lesarith jumped out of the way barely

avoiding the fire. Lesarith's foot was burned.

Lesarith swung at Gareith's leg and hits it. Gareith's

leg is cut deeply and is bleeding. Blood is all over

the diamond floor. Gareith limps towards the

staircase. Lesarith runs over to him and puts his arm

around his neck from behind. Lesarith tries choking

Gareith but Gareith stabs Lesarith in the stomach.

Lesarith lets go and falls to the floor bleeding from

his stomach. Lesarith gets up slowly and walks towards

the staircase. Gareith limps up the stairs slowly and

tries to enter his bedroom but the flying board jammed

the door. Lesarith runs up after him with his hand on

clenching his stomach wound. Lesarith saw Gareith

trying to unjam the door. Gareith turned around and

swung at Lesarith with his blade. Gareith's blade hit

Lesarith's arm and Lesarith's blade flew out of his

hand and fell down the staircase and into the throne

room. Lesarith heard his children inside the bedroom

screaming for him to help them. Lesarith said under

his breath "Zelphar you are forever thanked by me for

what you have done."Gareith smiled and put his sword

to Lesarith's neck. Lesarith grabbed Gareith's blade

and tried to push it away from his neck but Gareith

was thrusting it towards Lesarith's neck with two

hands. Lesarith and Gareith were using all of their

might to overpower eachother. Lesarith stepped on

Gareith's foot and pushed the blade off his neck.

Gareith's blade fell down to the throne room. Lesarith

threw a punch at Gareith's face and it landed. Gareith

staggered and lunged at Lesarith tackling him and

breaking the railing of the staircase. Gareith was on

top of Lesarith. Lesarith headbutted Gareith causing

him to get dazed. Lesarith then pushed Gareith off of

him and kicked him in the mouth. Garweith was bleeding

from his mouth and forehead. Lesarith filled with rage

grabbed Gareith by his cape and held him over the

throne room. Gareith looked down and realized how long

of a fall it was down to the throne room. Gareith took

out a small dagger and tried to stab Lesarith.

Lesarith kicked the dagger out of his hands and down

to the throne room. Lesarith yelled "I CLAIM THE

THRONE, I WILL LEAD THE FEDERATION INTO ITS FORMER

GLORY, REMEMBER ME FOR I HAVE RIDDEN THE ZECRAIMUX OF

THIS TERRIBLE MAN!" Then Lesarith let go of Gareith's

cape and Gareith fell 20 stories down to the throne

room. Blood splattered everywhere once he hit the

ground. Lesarith kicked open the bedroom door and took

his children. Lesarith asked them "Where is Zelphar...

the man who saved you?" They said "The orange energy

made him go away." Lesarith knew what had happened to

me. I watched Lesarith as he ordered the destruction

of every Gareith statue in the Federation and as he

hoisted up the new flag of the Chiropterran

Federation. The flag was blue with an emblem of two

golden children holding hands under a face of an elf,

that elf face was me. I followed Lesarith as he moved

out of his secret base and into the palace. I watched

as he took Velkarith's body and brought it to the

etching grounds in New Chiropolis. Velkarith's body

was burned into a gigantic 700 foot tall grey wall

with trillions of Chiropterran dead etched into it.

Velkarith's shape and face were imprinted and etched

into the wall and would stay there for eternity.

[Eyrev 33]

The Odyssey of Zelphar Part 2

I was crying because I didn't know any way back to the physical world or the Zecraimux. I left the planet of Vivterra by floating out of the atmosphere into the universe. I flew through the universe at an overwhelming speed. I was lost in the universe all the planets I reached were either dead planets or had lifeforms that were in a lower plane of existance. I finally decided to settle down and watch over a small world of lion people called the Gelegrom. The world was so small that there were only 2 villages on this world, Relegrom and Xelegrom. They lived a simple life and did not have technology that was advanced. They grew plants and hunted animals. It was a simple life and that is what I wanted to spend my eternity watching over. I watched over the village of Relegrom, I flew over it watching the people's daily tasks. I could not interact with them since they were on a lower plane of existance. I waited for an old sage to die to see if he had a way for me to become physical again. His name was Caltodash, once he died I saw his spirit right infront of me. I said "Hello Caltodash I am Zelphar Autumnfire and I need your help." Caltodash said "Et fer lagos nu canft tanis dos?" I used my spiritual powers to translate his language so we can both understand eachother. I said "I didn't understand you can you please say that again?" Caltodash said "What do you need help with Great spirit?" I then said "I want to become a physical being again, you see my body turned astral by a strange orange energy sphere." Caltodash said "I am sorry but once your physical body is gone there is no turning back, you are a spirit forever my friend." Caltobash flew away into space and I was in shock. I was dead... it was all over. I gave in to death and decided to be a spiritual guide for a Gelegrom child. I went into a child named Hures's dreams some nights and I taught him about everything I knew. For 4 years I was his guide. I then had to leave him so he wouldn't be so dependant on me. Once I left him there was nothing else for me. I would float around the village not acknowledged by anyone. One day I heard a noise behind me, a screeching noise. I went to go see what it is and see another spirit. This male spirit had long silver blonde hair, pale white skin of a vampire, red eyes, black nobles tunic with red trim, and he was an elf. He said "Hey I know you, your Zelphar Autumnfire of the Tetra, my name is Urim and I am dead just like you!" I said "What do you want Urim?" Urim said "I know the way to Aeonis, if you want to come follow me." Urim flew away and I followed him through the universe. We got to Aeonis and hovered over the Tetra home. Urim said "You are welcome Zelphar." Urim then smiled then flew away into the stars." I was disappointed since I was still a spirit. I floated over to a tall tower window and saw Rajaat sleeping soundly. I went into his dream without hesitation. His dream was taking place in a strange forest of giant mushrooms. Large graceful, four legged, horned creatures roamed these forests eating the mushrooms. I saw a hill in the distance and I floated towards it. When I got to the top of the hill I saw a giant magnificent city below in a huge valley with the sun rising in the distance. The buildings in the city were built out of a variety of materials and the people were all races, even some races I never have seen before. This place was amazing. I fell to my knees and cried on top of the hill at the sight of this beautiful place. I wanted to stay there forever. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I heard a voice that said "Its ok... Zelphar... its all ok... its me Rajaat." I turned around and wiped my tears and said "Rajaat your dream is beautiful." Rajaat said "I did not create this place, I knew you would come into my dreams if you were ever a spirit, I sensed you outside my window while asleep so I imagined this place to guide you in the right direction." I asked "What do you mean?" Rajaat said "I mean that this place is a real place, it is in the plane of existance that you are in, the one higher the Zecraimux, this is where the ones that truly die go, you didn't go to this place because your physical body turned into a spirit, you didn't leave your physical body." I then asked "Where is this place?" Rajaat said "I have been here in my astral travels, when I awake I will astral project and you can follow me there, in this place you will not be able to go through walls or solids since it is on your plane of existance, it will be like living in the physical world again." I left Rajaat's dream and waited for him to awake. Once Rajaat awoke he astral projected. Rajaat's astral body led me through the universe and to this world. While me and Rajaat's astral body were outside the atmosphere of the planet he told me "Zelphar me nor any of the Tetra brothers and sisters have a way to turn a spiritual body to a physical body, so this is our final goodbye Zelphar, I am sure you would have wrote great lore, goodbye Dancer Autumnfire of the Tetra." I said "Goodbye Weaver Rajaat." Rajaat's astral body faded and I flew right into the Planet. I was zipping through the clouds and then I saw a large light blue plasmatic wall. I went through it and I instantly lost the ability to fly. I fell right into a lake. I was actually wet and I could feel everything. This was amazing, I walked out of the blue wall and regained my flight and could go through solids. Then I went back into the wall and lost flight. I saw a cobblestone path that led to a large mushroom tree forest just like in the dream. I walked down the path in excitement. When I got into the forest I saw a small cottage with smoke coming out of a chimney on the roof to the left of me. The Cottage had a sign on it that read "Xanpher's humble abode." I was in shock, this was the home of the person I murdered when I was 7 years old. I didn't want to be even more reminded of the horrible deed I committed so I continued walking down the cobble path. I heard a voice from the cottage yell "Hey Zelphar, don't worry I don't hate you, come on back!" I smiled and walked back to the cottage. Xanpher opened the door and I walked in. The place was cozy and comfortable. We sat down at a wooden table and talked. Xanpher said "Zelphar haven't we gotten over this... I forgive you for what you did." I then said "I just feel bad about how I caused you to miss out on so much of your life." Xanpher said "This has been my life, going down the path to town having a job out here chopping down mushroom trees and selling my famous mushroom stew to people in my shop at the town, I also mated and had two children, one boy and one girl the boy's name is Zelphar and the girl's name is Busurka, Zelphar is 6 years old and Busurka is 10 years old, my mate is named Catherine she is a human woman." Catherine made us some mushroom tea and went back to the kids. I was happy and said "I am so glad you made your self a good life here." I then gave Xanpher a hug. Xanpher asked "So how did you die?" I said "Well I didn't die my physical body was turned into a spiritual body by this strange orange energy, so what is this world called anyway?" Xanpher said "It is called Tranquil, there is only one town and that is down the path, it is a big town and every race speaks one langauge, if they cant speak that language, the language they do speak is translated for everyone to hear." I asked "Are there any threats on this world?" Xanpher said "Not at all... and if you happen to die... you just come back to life... or come back to death, sorry it just doesn't feel dead here, everything is so alive." I smiled and asked "So once the evil people get here they change their ways?" Xanpher said "Yes, and if they don't change their ways here the grand conciousness sends them to the Nether." I asked "Wait... the grand conciousness... the very first conciousness?" Xanpher chuckled and said " Yes Zelphar it is the first true god ever, the creator of all universes and all times, he even created your petty Aeonis god Vushrean." I said "I know he created every conciousness." I then said "So can I speak to the Grand Conciousness?" Xanpher said "You need to have defeated a divine conciousness in one of your past lives or in your current life, you go to the Matron to see your past lives." I asked "One thing im confused about is... how do I reincarnate?" Xanpher said "You can stay here or reincarnate, to reincarnate you have to go to the Matron and ask her to reincarnate you, the bad thing is that reincarnation is random and you can end up with any race, gender, or life, oh and you also don't remember anything about your past lives." I then said "I need to see the matron to read my past lives and see if I have ever defeated a divine conciousness before." Xanpher said "It was nice meeting you Zelphar, to get to the matron you must go out into the mushroom forest and deeply imagine a really emotional time in your life, smell the aromas and feel the air." I then said "Thank you Xanpher, goodbye." Xanpher waved goodbye as I walked into the Mushroom forest. Once in the mushroom forest I closed my eyes and imagined the time when I heard from Burkrasith that Velkarith had to die. I then felt a warm sensation all over my body and I opened my eyes. I was in a large white room and a being that was gray skinned, with a long neck, black eyes, diamond shaped head, and a long white robe was sitting in a strange chair. I asked "Are you the matron?" The being said "Yes I am." The Matron put her hand on my head and closed her eyes. A wave of memories from my past lives flooded my mind, I saw many lives that I have once lived I saw many people that I have once loved. The matron stopped and said "Sorry but you have never defeated a god in any of your past lives." I said somberly "Ok... thanks anyway.. goodbye." I was transported back to the mushroom forest. I fell to my knees and cried because I knew there was no way back to the physical realm. I had so much lore and books to write but now that was all gone since I was stuck here in this afterlife. I fell to sleep right there in a circle of moonlight penetrating through the tops of the mushroom trees. When I awoke to a kick in my back. I got up and said "What... who are you?" The person said "Its me Urim, now get up Im setting up shop here." I got up and Urim started to build a merchant stall. I said "Wait this is out in the forest, who would know of this shop?" Urim said "The mushroom people...they live at the base of these trees their about four feet tall." I nodded and said "Ok Urim I am going to town bye." Urim sighed and said "Wait... Zelphar." I asked "What Urim?" Urim said "Listen... I know what your intentions are and I can't just stand by as you try to slay a god without any guidance." I was glad he mentioned this and in agreement said "Your right Urim... I don't even know where to find a god and do not know how to actually slay one." Urim smiled and said "I'll help you out, I've had my run ins with gods come along with me." I followed Urim down the path to town, we walked for a good 5 minutes and then reached the town. The town was just like the city in Rajaat's mind, I stopped calling it a town after I knew how magnificent it was. We entered a Large white marble and gold gate. As we entered the city a gaurd with glowing green eyes, blue skin, a full white marble and gold suit of armor, and a long pike stopped us. The gaurd said "Hekarithane dalmak urus ameux chusxi." Urim smiled and said "Vudarsi chantonorble falis dophine brux." The guard gestured for us to continue into the city and said "Tisanphy." While walking besides Urim I asked "What did you both just say, and why didn't I understand it?" Urim said "Its the language of Tranquil, it was not translated for you because it is the purest language in existance you must be one with every word of it you must embrace it as your gaurdian." I said "Really... there is no way I can just get it all translated?" Urim laughed and said "Yeah as you hear it more it will be translated, I was just trying to stress you out." I exhaled in relief and continued to walk with Urim. The enviroment was so blissful, people were helping eachother, trading, playing music, giving lectures, eating, and even sleeping. I felt no negative energy whatsoever. Urim pointed at a giant mountain in the distance with a titanic white marble and gold structure on top of it and said "That is where the Grand Conciousness dwells... but to have a word with im or even be in his presscense you must have slain a god in your current life or your any of your past lives." I said "I know that already... so are you going to help me slay a god?" Urim picked two strange pink fruits off of a nearby tree and said "Zelphar... relax a little I will help you in due time, explore the city then meet me at this inn when your done and we will talk about the god slaying." Urim tossed me one of the strange pink fruits and walked into an inn with a sign that read "The Enlightened turtle". I was confused by the name and continued walking through the city. As I was walking I was examining the pink fruit in my hands, it was very hard, was a perfect sphere, and had no scent. I took a bite of the fruit and it was delightful. The fruit tasted like maple syrup, vanilla, and oranges. I ate the whole fruit and kept walking. I stopped walking when I saw a pit filled with a pulsating greenish blue energy to the right of the cobble path I was walking on. I walked towards the pit and a human man said "Et saix druf-d deee folaoe cuikos-se." I said "Sorry I just do not understand the language of Tranquil yet." The man then said "Oh sorry I assumed you spoke it... I was saying that the pit is the pit of dreams." I asked "Pit of dreams?" The man said "Yes, if you go inside the pit you will be transported to the dream temple, I am initiate Barphus of the Dream temple." I asked "Everyone is just allowed entry?" Barphus said "Yes, we are not worried about anyone vandalizing the temple or slaughtering the dream tenders since the Grand Conciousness created dream gaurdians for our temple, they are 10 feet tall and are skilled in all forms of combat, their main purpose is to protect the temple at all costs." I said "I will be entering the pit then, goodbye Barphus." Barphus waved goodbye as I dived into the pit. All of the sudden I was zipping through a long winding tunnel of blue energy, then the energy turned red and I ended up in a large temple completely made of a strange purple energy. The energy was flowing through the temple and the temple was slightly translucent. I saw a giant door in the distance at the front of the temple and I walked towards it. When I was at the large door I knocked on it and a 10 foot tall purple elemental gaurdian opened the door. When I entered through the door I was in awe at the sight, it was a giant room with a glass dome on top that let the moonlight shine in, the moonlight shined on a huge purple energy sphere that was in the middle of the room. This sphere felt alive and felt like it had a soul, as I walked towards it I noticed 7ft tall beings with blue hooded robes standing infront of the sphere humming loud chants. When I was about 10 feet away from the Sphere a gaurdian stopped me and telepathically scanned my mind for evil intentions. The gaurdian then yelled "This is Kael Elven god of murder!" I was in shock at what the gaurdian had said and I calmy responded "I am not Kael why do you say that?" The gaurdian said "Because in the telepathic scan I found that your body is inhabited 99% by Kael and 1% by your soul, just enough for Kael to use your body without you knowing it." I was terrified and didn't know what to do. One of the beings infront of the sphere walked towards me and said calmly "I am Mordaroth the Dream Elder, you are being possessed by Kael, I know that you feel like you are able to control your body and mind but in all reality Kael is controlling your sub conciousess, this means that whatever action that he wants you to do you will do it thinking that it is what you really want to do."

I then asked "But I haven't murdered anyone... and he is the elven god of murder, wouldn't he have made me kill?" Mordaroth explained "According to further telepathic scans on you Kael's control spreaded to your sub conciousess around the time you entered the dream pit, it was by Kael's bidding that you come to this temple so I can not let you pass through to the Sphere for Kael has a devious plan."

I was in distress and asked " Can't you help me?"

Mordaroth sighed and said " We will lock you in an energy cage near the sphere tell us all of your thoughts and desires so we know what Kael's plan is."

I followed Mordaroth to the Sphere, as I neared the sphere I was overcame with an intense desire to astral project and fly my astral body into the sphere. When I was 4 ft away from the sphere a cage of purple energy trapped me rendering me unable to walk. I stood frozen and said "I am getting a desire to... astral project and fly my astral body into the sphere."

Mordaroth said "That is Kael's true body not your astral body, if you astral project Kael will be let out of your body and fly into the sphere." I struggled but successfully asked "What would happen.... the..n?"

Mordaroth somberly said "This sphere is the universe of dreams every dream or nightmare that takes place happens in this sphere, we dream tenders keep the dreams and nightmares inside the sphere, if Kael merged with the sphere he would intentionally burst the sphere letting every dream and nightmare run wild into our reality, it would be pure madness and chaos." I was feeling strange and purple veins of blood were swelling up all over my body as I asked "Mordaroth....what do we...do?" Mordaroth took a long look at me and then said "We give up, I am sorry but there is just no hope, Kael is almost fully out of your body, run as far as you can away from this place!" The Energy cage released me and I got about 10 ft away from the sphere before I collapsed to the temple floor and Kael completely seperated from my body. I felt normal again and saw the hopeless look on Mordaroth's face. I instantly layed down on the floor flat and tried to astral project. Mordaroth sensed my attempt and yelled "You cannot get to a higher density for this is the highest density a non god can travel to, if you astral project here you will transport your full body to the next density, don't do it!" I felt the vibrations and concentrated as my physical body slowly turned into an astral body. I risked it all and flew into the sphere following Kael. I was in a whirlwind of purple energy and I saw Kael right infront of me sinisterly smiling. Kael said "This is your end Zelphar, Velkarith is not here to save you now, I suggest you let me ultimately unleash chaos and madness on reality." I could not let this act be completed so I charged at Kael with my bare fists but instantly was struck in the face and knocked out of the way. Kael laughed and sent a swarm of scorpions at me, the scorpions tore away at my astral body, burning me all over. Kael was hysterically laughing while the last of my soul was being burned up by his minions. I then had a breakthrough and crawled towards the purple whirlwind walls. Kael laughed and yelled "Zelphar you are such a coward!" as I went through the whirlwind walls I was instantly in a large dark place. I realized that this is the dream world and I imagined myself a solar bolt rifle, the same gun that the Chiropterrans used, and I imagined myself obsidian armor. I healed my body and walked back through the Purple Whirlwind. Kael stopped laughing when he saw me and struck my obsidian armor with his sword. The sword broke the armor like it was gold. I was in shock, Kael knocked my rifle out of my hands as I tried to shoot it. The rifle fell and Kael picked it up. Kael was examining it curiously for he has never seen it before. Kael said "Be a good elf and tell me how to use this tool to slay your soul." I was bloodied and defeated but managed to say "Turn it around and gently tap the button on the side." Kael smiled and turned it around towards his face. I smiled and said "Do it." Kael pressed the button on the rifle and shot himself in the face. Kael's last words were "YOU TRICKSTER!"

I slowly managed to get up and I walked over to Kael's body. I took the rifle out of his hands and shot him in the heart repeatedly. I lowered my vibrations and held Kael by his arm to lower his also. I arrived back outside the sphere with Kael's body next to me. Mordaroth joyfully said "You've done it, thank you so much Zelphar Autumnfire." I said "Farewell Mordaroth and the dream tenders, I have to talk to the grand conciousness." I dragged Kael's body back to the exit portal in the temple and teleported back to the dream pit in the city. Barphus said "Your back, with a dead body?" I said "Goodbye Barphus." I dragged Kael's body all the way up to the grand concioussness's temple. I was in awe at the magnificence of the place, I saw a 60 ft tall being with 4 arms, 6 eyes, 2 legs, green skin with red stripes, insectlike, a diamond leaf laurel on its head, and no clothes sitting on a giant throne eating a big bowl of fruit. The being said with a booming voice "Esarnath ventium scrasgus dowam." I didnt understand the langauge that it was speaking and it instantly sensed that and said "Why do you disturb the grand concioussness stranger?" A servant handed me a strange device that amplified my voice to make it really loud so the grand concioussness could hear it. I talked into the device and said "I am Zelphar Autumnfire child of Saelerus from Detronoe, I have slain a god, the elven god Kael that means that I get to speak with you." The grand conciousness laughed and said "A god can never really die, they only get trapped in the Nether for a certain period of time, but you have sent one to the Nether so speak Zelphar."

I said "I was not killed and I do not deserve to be here for my physical body was consumed by the orange energy, please send me back to Aeonis grand concioussness." The grand concioussness said "You are telling the complete truth and you were consumed by the orange energy because you were protecting two children, therefore I will send you back to Aeonis, farewell Zelphar Autumnfire." I was instantly transported back to Aeonis. I was transported right into an ocean of Aeonis, I was panicking and swam until I saw a torch lit surface in the distance, thinking it was land I swam fast towards it. When I reached it I realized that this was a medium sized boat, there was a man on the boat smoking a pipe and operating it. I yelled "Can I get some help?" The man looked towards me and yelled back "Grab the ladder!" The man let down a ladder and I climbed up it and into the boat. The man said "Who are you and why are you naked, my name is John...Admiral...John." I said "I am Zelphar Autumnfire, thank you for letting me aboard John, by the way I am naked because I lost my robe while teleporting back to Aeonis." Admiral John gave me pork, water, a bed to sleep in and a blue robe with brown sandals to wear. When I woke up John said "We have reached Cormyr's harbor, it was pleasure having you aboard Zelphar." I then said "Thank you Admiral John and farewell." I got off the boat and breathed in the fresh crisp air of the physical world. Happy to be back I walked to the center of Cormyr and noticed a new sight, a strange portal made of obsidian. I went through the portal and there were many portals with different signs on them to say where they lead. I went into the portal with the sign Tetragrammaton on it and ended up in the Tetra city of Atlantis. I walked to the Tetra castle and heard a lesson going on in the library below. I went downstairs and took a seat to hear the lesson. The lesson was being taught by Primogentius. Primogentius was talking about how he was the first being ever created and that contradicted my Detrononian beliefs so I spoke out againest the things he was saying and Rajaat exiled me from the tetra forever. I then was depressed because I was exiled from the Tetra and could not find my old sancturary anymore. I roamed Cormyr looking for something to bring me out of this terrible situation but nothing could, I drowned my sorrows at a Cormyr tavern. After days of going to the tavern and being sorrowful I finally decided that I had to spread word of Saelerus, so I started construction on a monastary near the Elven city, I was in pure loneliness while building my Monastary to Saelerus in the elven city, nobody cared or believed in my words, one night I was sobbing in my empty monastary at my study desk with only a small candle by me, I was just rejected by the Elven king, he told me that I couldn't keep my monastary in the city, I was thinking of all of the people who rejected the words I spoke. I thought of all the horrible things that had happened to me and felt truly alone, I thought of the beauty of the afterlife that I had escaped and was confused as to why I was staying in Aeonis, I wanted to go back to the afterlife so I decided to release myself from my physical prison, I went outside and stood on top of my monastary with a blade, the moonlight was shining upon me and just when I was about to stab myself a voice entered my mind and said "It is time to go home Zelphar, back to Detronoe." I knew that this was Saelerus so I put away my dagger and awaited the teleport. Green energy embraced my entire being as I basked in waves of light and peace, I felt that I was going back home. All of the sudden I ended up in a scorching hot desert with a large sand stone walled city in the distance. I looked back and my portal was closed. I then heard Saelerus speak to me in my head saying "Zelphar I have no control over anything in this strange new land because it is 60 million years into the future, Detronoe is long gone and Aeonis with it, a being has altered my portal and made it bring you to this strange world instead of Detronoe, I am sorry Zelphar, but until your purpose here is fufilled you are stuck here." The voice faded from my mind and I walked towards the sandstone city.

[Appeals. 4]

I really do not appreciate people whom space every single line, it makes it a burden to read and is completely pointless, it would look much better with proper formatting and maybe some color.

Some problems I found were:

A wall of text.

Aegis is the world. You don't 'arrive' in it.

Mother of god. I cant read it.

Maybe follow the lore a bi better in regards to where your character came from? And please don't space every line!
