Trip to Alcentria (Prelude of The Divinity)[EN]

Heaven for Outlanders

Dara looks so amazed by the beauty of the city of Alcentria, she is still curious about the city above the sky that she saw just now, is that the city of the gods? The gods who destroyed her nation and kingdom? Dara wanted to ask Alioth this but seeing his smile like that, she then gave up her intention and didn't want to ruin Alioth's happiness. Dara then continued her journey around the city with her cousin. Alioth also stopped his horse-drawn carriage in front of a building shaped like a large shell, Alioth invited Dara to come down and walk into the building. Dara stepped in front of a very high glass door, she was so amazed by how large this building was, from the outside it looked very big, let alone the inside. Alioth and Dara walked to the front desk, a woman with gray hair greeted them both.

"Alioth, my son. Today I saw you weren't with your friend, who did you invite beside you?" said the woman curiously.

"Hehehe Yes Miss, this is my cousin from a distant world. Alioth took her around the city today" replied Alioth.

"Oh really? Welcome to Alcentria! A haven for travelers and explorers. Oh yeah, can you tell me your name, sweet child? Let me write it down in the guest book, so when you come here you don't have to bother registering your name again," said the woman.

"My name is Dara Vulcan miss, I'm from the Evas," said Dara telling her name.

"The Evas? Isn't that kingdom extinct tens of thousands of years ago? History records that the Evas has disappeared from Tartarus for some reason" said the woman surprised.

"The Evas didn't 'disappear', miss, we were just looking for a more decent paradise than here," Dara explained.

Hearing Dara's explanation, the woman looked so surprised, her eyes widened like she couldn't believe it but Alioth looked confused by Dara's words. Dara then rushed Alioth to immediately go inside with the reason that she couldn't wait to see this big building. The 'Center for the Study and Invention of Tartarus' was the place the two of them visited, this place was very big, it could be thousands of hectares in area. Dara was amazed by the fact that the Alioths could build a magnificent city like this. The two of them walked down an alley filled with valuable finds for the people of Tartarus. Alioth suddenly remembered one invention that he always enjoyed, namely a prototype of the machine called the 'airplane', Alioth invited Dara to go there and Dara happily followed him, the two of them jogged down a very long hallway to a room.

The room was at the end of the hall with a very high door, Alioth and Dara were seen pushing the door together. After opening the door, Dara's eyes were immediately stunned by the greatness of the people of Tartarus, she just couldn't believe that there was a nation capable of creating these great things. Alioth then walked towards a glass box at the end of the room decorated with a bright yellow light, Dara could only follow him from behind while looking around but there was one thing that caught Dara's eyes, namely a large gun in the corner of the room, Dara got closer to the object. which is in a large glass case. She was curious about the big object as well as wondering why the people of Tartarus created such a dangerous object. Even though there is no war or anything like that here, everyone lives in peace and tranquility.

"Alioth, I want to ask something," Dara called Alioth.

"What is it, Dara? What do you want to ask me?" said Alioth as he approached Dara.

"What is this big thing for? It looks very dangerous," said Dara, pointing to an object.

"Oh this, this is a Bazooka. The ministers made this for the defense of Tartarus, but this thing was never used because there was never a war here. I also don't know why the ministers created this Bazooka," Alioth explained.

Dara could only stare deeply at the thing called Bazooka as if something had hypnotized her. Dara just stood there for a while until she realized because Alioth had surprised her, Alioth then invited Dara to look at the prototype machine at the end of the room. The machine is called 'Jet' and is large enough for a machine. This machine was created quite recently, which is about 650 years ago. Dara is still reading the explanation in front of her, she understands why this nation created this machine, which is to travel long distances. After a long time there, Alioth and Dara returned to the castle because it was getting late. They boarded the horse-drawn carriage and walked down the long road to the Castle. The city of Alcentria was filled with sparkling lights from tall buildings, Dara was instantly hypnotized by how beautiful this city was at night. Dara is still enjoying her night in Alcentria City accompanied by lights in every corner of the city.

After arriving at the Castle, Dara and Alioth were greeted by Alioth's mother, who had been waiting for them for a long time. They were both served roasted turkey and sumptuous food that Dara had never tasted before, this was like a dream, Dara thought. Dara and Alioth devoured the food on the table, Alioth's mother just laughed at their behavior, like a child fighting for food. Dara's bodyguards also enjoyed the food, even though they felt bad for Alioth's treatment and his mother received them well. After eating dinner, Dara rushed back to her room. She lay down on the bed for a moment, she started to close her eyes but someone knocked on her door. Dara immediately got up and opened the door and saw one of her bodyguards was already standing in front of the room.

"Sorry princess to bother you, the queen contacted you earlier but you didn't answer," said a guard.

"Oh really? Maybe Mother called Dara on the way home. Thank you very much for telling me. Rest well, tomorrow we will still be traveling with Alioth" Dara said gratefully.

"Okay princess, then I will return to the room," said the guard as he walked away.

Dara closed the door to her room and walked towards her big bed, she then called her mother via her cellphone but unfortunately, she didn't pick up. Dara is worried about her mother's condition in her world, but Dara still thinks positively if she might just miss her. Alioth suddenly entered Dara's room, Dara got up and sat on her bed. Dara then asked the question she had wanted to ask for a long time.

"Alioth, may I ask you something?" Dara asked doubtfully.

"Ask about what? You don't have to be shy Dara if you want to ask something" said Alioth.

"I just glimpsed if there is a city above the sky, is it just my imagination or is it a real city? If so, is it the city of the Gods?" Dara asked clearly.

"You mean the city in the west of Alcentria? It's the City of Eden, the city of the Angels. The city is quite far from here so maybe I can't take you there," Alioth explained.

Dara just nodded slowly as a sign of understanding but she was still curious, are the Angels also Gods? Alioth did not answer the last question she asked. Dara and Alioth talked until late at night, Alioth then rushed back to his room.
