A New Old World

The Darkness Warriors

I took little to no interest toward the room I was given and as soon as I had a glimpse of a bed I let my body fall on it and fall asleep instantly. My ideas were starting to mix with my dreams and memories as I felt the eyes of the creature once again glaring directly at me. The chill I felt back then had returned as it walked closer and closer by the second right before a shine turned everything into an open white field where I stood, alone. "You have arrived" I could hear in echo without being able to tell from which direction the mysterious voice was coming I tried to speak but couldn't, I looked at my hands but they weren't mines it was the creatures "You are a low being as you are now, even this Búlkar has a higher value to me than you, you weakling" I could hear the echo of the voice once again growing in volume and filling up in anger with every word and ending in disappointment yet, the last words were shouted directly into my ears and woke me up in sweat, the voice which had called me weakling felt familiar as if I had known that person forever and yet I didn't recognize whose voice that was. I tried checking on the photo album I had under my wardrobe to try and see if I could recognize the voice's owner by the looks when, having the photo album in hands, I realized it was really there and I felt stupid and couldn't hold my laughter as I looked around and enjoyed the looks of my room realizing that my adventure had been just another crazy dream and dropped on my bed with a wide smile drawn in my face as I sit up and saw Jhin laying against the door frame.

-"Hey there, are you enjoying the room or is it that you are happy to see me?" said Jhin as he walked in closing the door "It seems you fell for the Room's joke eh? I did too, it's truly amazing what they can do by taking your memories it can even get things you don't remember them completely"

I sighed before replying "Whose idea was it? I don't think it's funny to give fake hopes...All right I guess it really got me" I said laughing at the end as how stupid I was starting to feel "Why did you come?" I asked him

He grabbed a chair and sat "I came to welcome you into the Light Warriors and to tell you that you will be part of our party with me and Ray, he's the guy who was with me when we found you"

"Now that you mention that, what was that thing? Its eyes...it was definitely not an animal" I asked feeling my heart race from the memories

"A Búlkar, it's the most common creature made of shadows that lurks around the world. Pretty much weaklings unless they merged together but if they do they tend to attack each other to absorb more essence and evolve, we usually get dispatched from time to time to keep this from happening, did it scare you?" he asked raising an eyebrow

I nodded clenching my hands"I do not like to acknowledge it but...I never felt what that creature made me feel"

Jhin laughed as he stood up and stretched "You have to be careful on how you say things you know? And don't worry about that, I found a Wendigo when I first came here....you are lucky to see a Búlkar and let's be honest, you haven't even seen them at all" he came closer and sit next to me "I heard from the boss that you wish to go back home, I understand you but most people don't. They Want to keep the power, abilities, knowledge or whatever they have now that they didn't have before but because of the war with the Darkness Warriors those like you who want to return cannot...that's why we are going to rush things with you Mario. You said you wanted to have a weapon to defend yourself and I will help you get one or well "remember" one. "He said with a smile as he touched a panel next to the door and the light twisted and shrunk before returning to normal.

"Where are we going to go? A Forge?" I asked excited as I really was hoping for the chance to forge my own weapon, a blade perhaps!

He smirked and invited me to walk into the light "Even better than a forge, we are going to go to you"
