Shieldfreeden [Mirellia POV]

*sigh* this has begun to become much more troublesome than it needed to be, with Lord Seatto dead, Aultcray has summoned all four heroes, at once, If my prediction is correct, Malty will most likely do something to make the Shield hero the scorn of the nation, I just hope my predictions are incorrect, but before I can wonder anything else, one of my Shadows appear

Shadow: your majesty, I come with news I daresay, it pains me to say, but your prediction was correct, Malty falsely accused the Shield hero of rape and made him the scum of the nation 

Mirellia: *sigh* 

Shadow: Is everything alright your majesty

Mirellia: Sadly no, it is not, whilst the entire nation and all the heroes draw further apart, I must remain here to stop a declaration of war from Shieldfreeden, so far, things have not shaped in the best of ways, I just wish that I could hear some good news

Suddenly, as if the gods came to answer my prayers, another of my shadows appear

Shadow 2: My queen, I come with good news

Mirellia: oh what is it

Shadow 2: *pulls out book from cloak* the book we were given by the traveler has begun to shine a great gold

This was good fortune indeed, long ago when I was merely a child, a wandering traveler in a red cloak approached me, she handed me this book saying that a day will come when a new hero is summoned, and this book would be the key to finding them, but before I could ask further questions, the moment I looked up, she was gone, without a single trace but the book she left me. It told tales of an old hero that dated back even before the Cardinal heroes, a hero that all others derived from, the Final Hero. It spoke of many other final Heroes, of they're great achievements, however nothing explained to me how to find the next one or why this was the only one of it's kind

Mirellia: *takes book*

Shadow: your Majesty, are you sure that it is safe to use

Mirellia: The Traveler told me a day would come when they would be needed again, I believe that that time is now *opens book*

just then, a magnificent golden light shot out of the book, and like a spell, the light began to curve and shape itself, forming a sort of guide of where to go

Mirellia: Shadows

Shadows: my queen

Mirellia: Ready my carriage, if what the traveler said was true, wherever this path leads may be our only hope

[Timeskip, Unknown Location]

and so, we began our travel, however, something was strange, I could sense a strange aura around me as we continued to follow down this path, it was almost as if as we continued to travel that we began to go farther from not only Shieldfreeden, but the world completely, eventually, the path ended, leading into a cave in the middle of the forest, as I enter, I notice several strange glyphs and symbols carved onto the walls

Shadow: these walls, these symbols, such Intricate designs I daresay, My queen, do you know what these symbols mean

Mirellia: I don't believe it, these symbols, they represent the Final heroes, but not only that, it appears they were with us the entire time *looks at symbol*

Mirellia: I don't believe it, these symbols, they represent the Final heroes, but not only that, it appears they were with us the entire time *looks at symbol*
