It was roughly midnight, I had been awake long after the princesses had fallen asleep. No matter how hard I tried I just couldn't sleep. Eventually I decided to go for a walk. Moving ever so gently I freed myself from their hold and crawled out of bed. I had gotten pretty good at not waking people up. Looking back while redressing, the four girls scooted closer to each other aware of the missing heat.
Softly closing the door behind me, I wandered the corridors until I emerged outside the castle. A little ways to the north was a grassy plateau with a couple of oaks. Climbing the hill I punched a couple of blocks of wood from one of the trees. I replanted the sapling that fell and collected the apples. I crafted a table and some ladders. Once on top of the last tree, I made a small platform and took a seat.
The outdoors was quite calm. A light breeze blew, softly rustling the leaves. With no clouds in the sky, the full moon shed all its light upon the landscape. I fished through my inventory, pulling out the white book from the abandoned library.
The title read "Legend of the Creator" in large gold letters. "Might as well read it." I sighed, opening the cover. In the moonlight I began at the beginning.
Long ago, before mobs roamed the biomes, before Herobrine came to be, there were the stones. Each of these mysterious artifacts held a different and wondrous power.
The next page bared a single cube with six orbs circling the interior. Each one had a unique set of runes circling it. Turning the page showed a close up of one of them. The book was faded to the point where the color was gone, yet the design remained visible. Three runes resembling a pickaxe, a block of TNT, and a block shattering surrounded it.
The stone of fire, the embodiment of destruction. Housed in redstone it grants to ability to obliterate any block with but a single stroke. Focusing its energy generates concentrated explosions at will . Wielding this orb allows one to surpass any obstacle in their way.
After reading that description, our diamond golem friend came to mind. "If this has anything to do with us... could he possibly have that power." Curious about the others I continued to read.
The stone of water, the embodiment of wisdom. From this orb of lapis comes forth a wealth of experience. Enabling to holder to bring out the most powerful of enchantments. Even a simple touch from it's wielder can grant power.
Around this orb was four books and what looked like eight tiny experience orbs.
The stone of earth, the embodiment of fortitude. Immortality is infused into this orb of sandstone. Not even one possessing the fire stone can harm its holder. The potency of it's power even extends into the equipment of the holder.
A shield was the frame that held the third stone.
The stone of wind, the embodiment of instinct. This emerald orb overflows with life energy. Giving the user the freedom to soar through the skies. Expanding that flow enables flight to select others.
Four bat wings extended outwards from the artifact in a pinwheel fashion with wind gusts in between.
The stone of shadow, the embodiment of secrets. Teleportation is the gift this orb of obsidian bestows. The shroud concealing instantaneous transportation revealed at last. Sharing its secrets allow others to follow.
A ring of nether portals encircled this orb.
The stone of light, the embodiment of wealth. An orb of golden ice that opens infinite possibilities. Access to unlimited materials allows he who controls it to shape the world to his desire. Even allowing him to change blocks already in the world.
The gem in this drawing lay in the center of a locked chest with six pieces of diamond ore forming a hexagon around it. This one caught my attention. Based on the description of the color, it seemed to bare a strong resemblance to my pendant. However, it was the chest like rune that peaked my fancy. On a whim I opened my inventory and compared strange chest symbol to the rune from the book.
