The Great Prophecy

Chapter 12

"All right, Caoalais's soul rose from the jewel that the great Kieler wore. Caoalais is now in search of a host so that he can walk and talk and do whatever evil scheme he wants to." Aolus said.

"What? How is that possible?" Akoen asked.

"We are not sure, but we know that he is somewhere at the Great Caves..."

"The Great Caves? Where is that?" Lokiel asked.

"Oh god," Keflar said.

"Keflar, seems like you know the Great Caves."

"Yes, it is in Gandor, where the iron for the dark magic weapons come from... I should not be going there at all!"

"Ah, well that is true, but in the prophecy," Aolus was cut short by Akoen.

"Wait, there is a prophecy? How come you didn't tell us about it?"

"Oh, er, well I was actually coming to that. The prophecy goes something like this: et lok tas mein far Akoen, Lokiel, Keflar tet samen, Keflar sol dok rok, Akoen godus, Lokiel kol lak, ok lok tas do,gor Dok akor."

"I only understood three words: Akoen, Lokiel, and Keflar, and that's us. We are in a prophecy, does that mean that we are supposed to go on this quest?" asked Lokiel.

"Well, yes. The prophecy is written in our ancient language called koliknos. In English, the prophecy says: the worst enemy shall come back, Akoen, Lokiel, and Keflar will rise to the challenge, Keflar will make the strongest weapon ever made, Akoen will get powers of god, and Lokiel will become the healer of the gods, only then will the worst enemy die, the trio will meet an unexpected person who will fight alongside."

"So we all will be getting some sort of an extraordinary thing," Akoen said.

"That's what the prophecy says," said Aolus.

"Well then, I think that's is good enough, let's pack our bags and get out of here, but first, let us know which route to take," Lokiel said.

After they got the information on where they needed to go, they packed up and said their last farewells. "What an adventure we are going to have! We must thank destiny for this!" Akoen said.

"Indeed," Lokiel replied.

"Even if we die, we will die brave and a hero to the world," Keflar added, the others agreed.

"Let's get serious now, the world depends on us, Aolus gave me this map of the world and traced our route, he said that if we follow this route then we can reach the great caves in at least four days, that is, if we don't run into any trouble," Akoen said.

"Oh well that's great! We could finish the quest in at least eight days," said Lokiel.

"Indeed, Aolus also told me to give you two your desired weapons, I think Lokiel would want the battle axe, and two swords for Keflar and me."

"Why does Aolus have to worry?" Keflar said.

"Well, we are the first people to go on a quest from Akiet, and it's not any quest, it's the great prophecy!" replied Akoen.

"Ah, yes it is! The prophecy said that you will be getting powers of god, that is possibly the strongest power out of all three of us," said Keflar.

"But the prophecy also says that the three of us combined will have the power to defeat Caoalais, who I'm guessing is the worst enemy," said Akoen.

"Well that is true, but how will the strongest sword help?" asked Keflar.

"Well, I'm not sure, but maybe it could be a sword that is able to slice throguh anything," Akoen replied, and after that they crossed the border of Akiet. When the sun was setting, the three decided to rest.
