Ola follows Elie through the street of the poor run down villiage. As he walks he can see fellow villiage folks minding there business. In the distant in big fields there are farmers who are getting the crops ready for this spring that is coming around fast.
Many people or both men and women on there knees digging in the soil. Ola looks towards the houses, his eyes and can see the density of the material the building are built on. Wood that seems to be fading away and getting weaker. Who knows how long these houses will stay up for.
As ola is in his own world looking around the villiage. Elie stops but Ola bumps u to the back of her. "Watch it would you, idiot", She says in a frustrated tone, seemingly hiding her flustered state.
She turns to face a house before opening the wooden door that creaks with each movement. As she opens in Ola looks over her shoulder and can see Cila sitting on the ground on top of a matress with crossed arms.
'Cila' Ola says with happiness and relief as he enters elie's house, he looks down at Cila but stops in place as he saw her eyes seemingly glaring at him. It's clear she hasn't forgotten or forgave Ola for how he got drunk and acted in a childish manner.
"Ugh, I'm glad your not dead, at least", Cila says in a quiet voice under her breath, validated with anger. She averts her eyes.
Ola stands there as Elie goes into her garden to finish off folding her clothes that she was in the middle of before going to get Ola.
Leaving both Cila and Ola alone in the room. The tension is high but mostly of awkwardness. "Listen, i-im sorry, I dknt know what I did but I made you upset again", Ola says. He truly has no idea what happened last night due to being so drunk.
Cila let's out a sigh of annoyance. " you got drunk again that's what, you acted like a damn child when I didn't allow you to have another beer", she says in a growl.
At this point, There is nothing Ola can say to get forgiveness from her. He knows he messed up, and his drinking happily has gotten very out of control.
While these two are having a serious talk.
Elsewhere, back at the dark castle where the twelve leaders reside. Rank four has returned after destroying another three villiages.
Rank four Leader Alice. She is knows as the gloom emperor, because wherever she goes, follows a dark cloud of death.
She is a mage, Much like Ola, she has lived for Four hundred years. People call her the Alice witch. But unlike Ola who was preserved for two thousand years, whis only felt like a second for him. Alice actually lived all her years alive and well. Simply because she feeds of her servants hearts.
She has many slaves at the castle all locked up in a dark underground cell. She never allows them to see or feel sunlight. Only the cold stone of the earth beneath and the pressure and skin of all the other slaves cramped together. Some die of thirst and hunger and rot away but those who survive become skin and bones with a mind of no other thought other than the need for food and drink.
Sometimes she toys with them and makes them Kiss her feet in hopes of giving them some bread, but she kills them coldly and eats there hearts which gives her extra years to live.
That's the power of her cursed magic. It's the power of souls. Well seemingly. Whenever she kills someone, she has to eat there heart to live extra years because her own time on this planet is long gone since she is centuries old.
She returns to the castle after three days out and about having fun destroying villiges and cities. Bathing in the blood of the innocent.
She heads to her Chambers and sits on her throne made out of oure gold. The last and only gold left in this world. She whistles and one of her slaves come running to her. Holding a microphone.
She takes the microphone and speaks through is to notify all her other slaves that she has returned. Since she has so much fun killing people she will allow a single piece of bread to be dropped in only one of her six cages full of slaves. With a evil cunning laugh she turns the mic off and the slave takes her leave.
Back with Ola and Cila now.
Cila us still mad with Ola but has calmed down to a point of understanding.
Ola's eyes look down next to the matress and the magic book that is acquired by cila is there.
"Oh yeah, I forgot you had that magic book. You have become much stronger the past two months", Ola says with a smile.
