Sky Maiden: Savior of Exahelm

Prologue: Light Fading Away

*HACK COUGH*

Loud coughs were heard throughout the large white castle. Located in a bedroom with nothing but white walls, a large red and blue carpet leading to two large blue doors with a symbol that resembles a halo. Up in the back of the room lays a king size blue bed in between two large windows. Laying in the bed rests a man with withered out skin. His skin looks almost to the point of turning into dust as the man has shrunken down black eyes, resembling a mummy. He looked dead but was very much alive, coughing and hacking several times.

"Master..." A man standing next to the bed appears to be a tall man with long green hair. His face had a star symbol over one of his purple eyes which are slanted. Wearing light blue armor and steel blue boots. However the most noticeable thing he had was his large white wings and halo above his head. He also wore a necklace with a star shaped green gem.

He looked down at the old man he calls master. He appears calm despite the critical situation. He briefly looks outside at the bright and sunny town. It was active and several of the townspeople also had white wings and halos. The town appeared to be above the clouds as it was bright and blue on the sky with the floor looking white and floofy.

"Close those windows Hahlos! It's too bright!" The old man yelled out. Sounding like he's choking on every word he says. The man named Hahlos did not react, but closed the window and covered it with the red curtains with blue lines. The old man continues to cough out shortly after his outburst.

"Master, please do not speak. Your health is getting worse." Hahlos advised. Giving out a large sigh, sits down in the chair next to the bed.
"It gets worse by the day, at this rate we may lose our light..."
Hahlos puts his hands together and leans down on them, looking down.

"Hahlos, *COUGH* you know it's unacceptable for me to die *HACK* like this..." The decrypted man explained. "The world's balance relies...on me..." Hahlos gets up from his chair, starting to walk out of the room. He grabs the door handle and looks back at his master before declaring. "I know, and I will find a way to bring back your light. Now get some rest, master." He leaves the room, closing the large door slowly.

Hahlos walks down the long hallway, it's empty with a checkered blue and white floor. The light from the windows shines on him as he speed walks through the hallway, only hearing the clanks of his boots. He makes it to a normal sized door and proceeds to open it as he doesn't stop before the door is open. In the room is a large round white table with several people in the room.

"Big bro Hahlos! How's the master!" A small girl with yellow hair tied in a pig tail immediately ran up to him before being stopped by him putting his hand in front of her, having her run into it. She fell down and looked up, giving an annoyed look. She wore a blue dress with black sandals and gloves. She had a large scythe on her back behind her small wings. "Come ooooon!" She whined. "One day I'll surprise you!"

"You're still on that Sync? You do realize you'll never be able to right?" Scoffed a thin looking man, not bothering to look at either of them. He had glasses with a scar on his forehead. His wings were folded but noticeably thin, not many feathers on them. He wore a white tuxedo with a red tie. With long white pants and black shoes. His hair was spiked with half of it being blue while the other being white.

"Just by your silence tells me he's not getting better."

"Your perception is correct as always Stark…" Hahlos compliments before walking over and taking a seat before folding his arms.

"I can see it, the light falls close. We need to do something soon."

"Oh no...what's gonna happen here?!" Sync stood up before running back over to her seat looking scared.

"HA HA HA" a large man with thick wings slams his hand on the table in laughter. He didn't wear a shirt and had black pants with black boots on. He had a large and hairy brown beard with messy looking brown hair.

"What's so funny you damn fool?" Stark snaps.

"Heh, you all lose hope so easily. Come on now! We can get through this!" The large man smiled brightly.

"Argus, keep it down. Your loud drunk yelling will disturb the master." A woman says sternly. She had an eyeglass with a red suit. Her pants were black with black heels. Her hair was long and grey. She sat with one leg crossed, smoking a cigar.

"Heh heh, my bad Arya." Argus grabbed the drink he was having and took a large chug.

"So? So? What should we do?" Sync questioned, speaking quickly. Halos sat in deep thought. He tried to drown out the noises Argus was making, focusing carefully. Suddenly his eyes shot open.

"Heh, looks like you thought of something. Lay it on us" Stark glanced at Hahlos, giving a smirk. Hahlos smirks back before everyone has their eyes on Hahlos.

"Tell me, have you heard of The Sky Maiden?" Hahlos asked.

"The Sky what now?" Argus asked back.

"She bears the power of the sky, I've seen her before. I believe she will be of use to us."

Arya quickly chided in.
"Wait, is she human?! Are we really that desperate?!"

"I can see it, the sky dragon's blessing giving the world back its balance. More than just a human...a human that can heal any loss of strength." Hahlos put his hands together while his elbows lay on the table.
"I understand it's against our rules to interfere with the affairs of the human world below. However at this rate we have no choice…"
Hahlos then turns his gaze towards Sync.

"Sync, can you find the location of the Sky Maiden?

"Of course bro! What do they look like?"

"Yes...you see..."
