How the Change has Timed

How The Corruption Spread

Scott's Perspective

Scott woke up and grumbled out of bed.

I guess I should do something here today. Scott thought. That way I don't bother anyone.

Scott got dressed, unlocked his door, and walked out to the village. He was planning on updating his meeting room, but today had other things planned for him.

Scott walked out into the village and immediately had multiple farmer villagers run up to him.

"Is something wrong?" Scott asked.

The farmers bowed and then said, "There's a problem in the wheat farms."

"Is the iron golem stomping on the crops again?" Scott sighed.

"No, it's something else. Something with the corruption."

Scott was shocked, "Show me."

Scott followed the farmers, worried. All I wanted was to have a normal day.

Scott saw corrupt plants in the place of wheat. There were also little ponds of fire instead of water.

"We don't know how it got here, Prince Scott. It was like this when we woke up. Along with the crystals and tentacles." One of the farmers said.

Crystals and tentacles?

Scott looked around, and sure enough, there were giant red tentacles all around his enchanting tower and Rivendell. There were also purple crystals filled with lava above all the important buildings. One over his wheat field, two over the village, one over his house, the enchanting tower, and the statue of Aeor.

Xornoth could break those at any second and Rivendell will be consumed by lava.

Scott looked back at the wheat field and sighed.

"Please get me seeds, a hoe, and a shovel." Scott told two of the farmers. They nodded and set off.

"Could you please get five buckets full of water?" The last farmer nodded as well and ran off towards the lake.

I'm not even ruler yet. Scott sighed.

After Scott fixed the wheat field, he was planning on going back to his home and talking to his parents.

I need to tell them about the corruption. My birthday is in 3 weeks, so I'll be getting the crown soon.

Scott turned around and saw Katherine flying to his kingdom.

OH, COME ON!

Scott thought about running but changed his mind at the last minute.

"Scott! I need to talk to you." Katherine said, landing next to Scott.

"What do you want." Scott said, death staring Katherine.

"Look, I'm really sorry. I understand what I was doing wrong. Just thinking that I knew exactly what you were talking about."

Scott's anger softened and he said, "It's okay, Katherine. Really. I'm sorry for shouting at you."

Katherine smiled and hugged Scott.

"We need to talk though." Katherine said.

"About what?" Scott asked, letting go of Katherine.

"About what happened yesterday."

Scott flushed pink and said, "Let's go inside."

"So you feel like you put him in danger."
