Rhapsody of Fire - Land of Immortals

Hear the silence of the winds making your own destiny
go and face the mirror of their sin
Only brave hearts found the way breaking all the dragon's spell
cross the Argon's glade with heart in hand

Land of immortals I wait for my day
to reach the wisdom of your skies
Land of immortals you must belong to me
from here to eternity

And between Elgard's hills near the ancient ruins of Kron
you will face the trick of the old dwarf
To obtain the second key you have to cross the bloody sea
where the thirst of Tharos never ends

Land of immortals I wait for my day
to reach the wisdom of your skies
Land of immortals you must belong to me
from here to eternity

Holy force of wisdom spread through all the air
I shall breathe you forever to end this epic holy quest
My way will be hard but I would do all
to reach the valleys where true heroes ride beyond the ivory gates

Land of immortals I wait for my day
to reach the wisdom of your skies
Land of immortals you must belong to me
from here to eternity

Mana (Book One of The Mana Saga) by Asher Tensei 

Eurich is thrown into a seemingly ill-fated destiny. After learning of his legendary magic, he is convinced that he alone must stop an impending doom, but nothing is ever as it seems. His best friends Jason and Raine try their best to help him save the world, but help isn’t what he needs —he needs a way across the barrier. Despite this fate thrust upon him, Eurich knows what is coming. The world is headed toward Chaos due to a weakening barrier between Earth and a world that has been hidden for millennia. Our world is about to take a sharp turn for the worse. Extra moons are rising in the sky, and panic is at an all-time high. Worst of all, there are no explanations. Saving the world begins with a choice —but is humanity worth him risking his own life? If you like any of the chapters, please comment or vote :) It's very helpful.

3.3.19.4. Castoria Catastrophe - Part Three

Sargathos the Man-Dracolich

Sargathos tries to evade it, but the gap between the strings becomes narrower and narrower. A fly can hardly fly through it, and for this huge monstrosity, it’s absolutely impossible.

            CRASSHH! CRASSH! CRASH!

            Even the mandracolich’s skeletal, tough crust is cracked under the sharpness of those lines of light, as though a thousand needles piercing through him. In addition, the holy energy from the piercings stays inside his body, inhibiting the flow of dark energy, thus paralyzing him. Sargathos falls all the way down to the burning city below him.

            BBAAMMM!!

            Chris and Acavela reappear in front of Sargathos the mandracolich.  Their auras have reached maximum, and their bodies are glowing as if gods. Even so, they just have enough to deal one, finishing blow.

            ‘Come on, what are you waiting for? Just do away with me! I don’t want to go on living as a heap of broken bones like this!’

            ‘Than might be as well as your just reward, Sargathos,’ says Chris calmly. ‘You killed dragons indiscriminantly just to drink their blood and eat their hearts, whereas a good dragon slayer only kills those of a menace.

            The one that killed you was Algaban, the Ancient Red Dragon. Judging from the version of your story, I think you’ve lied. A dragon slayer always does a thorough research before doing his job. So, I think you were hired to kill Algaban by no other than the one who transformed you, Zal’fira the Necromancess.’

            ‘H-how did you know that?’ said the mandracolich, still lying helpless, paralyzed and vulnerable.

            ‘Because I and my friends have fought her in her second attempt to rob Algaban of the Adair’s Arsenal she was guarding. Looks like you didn’t do a thorough research on me first when you decided to hunt me down. Well, I hid my true identity back then, but my father acknowledged my feat in Hvalgarr when he dubbed me as a Paladin. Well, at least someone has done his homework.’

            ‘So, what are you waiting for?’ Sargathos sounds weak, desperate and impatient. ‘I wans’t smart enough to survive in this dragon hunting trade. I was swayed by the Necromancess’ lies and promises of absolute power. Apparently, she used me as a bait!

            I thought I got the power that I wanted, but I was wrong. I am the strongest mandracolich, but I’m lost to the true Power of Light, a power far greater than mine. Guess I can’t convince you to become a mandracolich after all, eh. Now please. End my life now, free me from my misery.’

            To the mandracolich’s surprise, Chris shakes his head, saying, ‘No, I won’t do that. Let Vadis be the judge of life and death, not me. I did all this just to make you realize your errors, your weak points. I don’t want to be a murderer.’

            OUEEK! The mandracolich vomits blood and says, ‘Huh! Now it’s you who haven’t researched on undeads thoroughly! Can’t you see, it’s too late for me now. I have a cursed life, cursed body, and frankly speaking, like all undead, I’m already dead. I’d rather die and pay for my sins in hell than spending eternity as a paralyzed cripple! Now I’m not welcome in this world and the underworld. Unless Vadis is willing to forgive my sins, hell is my only option.

            So, I’m begging you, please! You’ll torture me if you let me live. Kill me! It’ll do me far more good. Please!’

            ‘Hm, I understand now. This cursed life is Vadis’ way to give you the chance to see the light. Know this, Vadis is willing to forgive all sins, even from an undead, if he truly repents.’

            ‘Really? Vadis, if you’re willing, please forgive my sins and embrace me in your loving hands. Go ahead. I’m ready.’ The mandracolich tries to smile but his skull-like face is impossible for all expressions.

            ‘Very well, I’ll help you.’

            Chris uses his excess mana and does a single thrust with concentrated full power: Singular Voice of Truth. CRASSH! The blade of Excalibur breaks the crust, goes all the way through the mandracolich’s chest and heart. Green, slimy blood gushes out from that wound.

            Sargathos screams in pain. With his dying breath, he mutters, ‘Vadis, you’re calling me! I... come.’

            Thus ends a cursed life and begins a blessed afterlife.

            Rest in peace, Sargathos.
