World of darkness book four : falling empires.

Part 4 : the pasts call.

( pov lance )

I was sitting alone in my room unsure what to do with the current situation, if corves has really returned we are dealing with someone more powerful then anyone we have faced since Alan.

I was looking through all the books i held in my library to see was there anything that could help us but as of now i have found nothing i didnt know already. The only thing that stopped the first demon war was vordus and his staff.

With vordus dead and the staff lost to who knows where we are on our own , i stood up and slammed my fist down on the table i was sitting at.

I was angry i couldnt find anything because i knew without some edge we cant win against him. I then heard the door open and turned to my left and saw Gwendolyn.She had heard my frustration it looked like.

Gwendolyn " i hope you didnt kill that table " she walked over and put her hand on my left shoulder " listen i know your angry you cant do anything ...and we are both scared but that wont stop us." I wish i could simply believe in that but what corves did to me and her... its the one thing in my life i would wish rid of more then any other moment. Even the worst with ceris.

" the only thing that can help us is the dragon staff which went missing after naues took over the end and with vordus dead we cant command the dragons even if we could find any "

Gwendolyn" i wont let you just give up ok . Until we can figure out want his real plan is then we can figure out how to stop him from killing anymore innocent people " i put my hand on hers and left out a sigh.

" whats going to be any different then last time ? " i asked looking down .

Gwendolyn " last time we didnt have rain and stella . Those two wont give up as easy as we did, remember rain refused to die when he lost the crystals just for her thats something....love is something that makes me stand strong" well i suppose she is right.

" well now we have to wait for the others to come back , then as you said we can figure something out " she smiled seeing me slowly getting into a slightly more hopeful mood.

Then we heard some one opened the door , it was just a random endermen " sir lance, theres a guest that wishes to speak with you " me and Gwendolyn walked outside the room and the building and saw Cynthia standing in her armour which was different then the last time we saw her. Also the fact she has the netherstar faintly glowing in her upper chest.

" Cynthia , what brings you here ?" I greeted and asked her.

Cynthia " i came to discuss some matters which i feel you might want some say in. But first wheres rain ?" She asked with a smirk on her face.

Gwendolyn " hes on a mission against the vampires " she answered her.

Cynthia" aw , to think i was gonna wear heels and everything " i forgot she was a bit ...flirty with rain. I dont think she knows about him and stella. Well anyways Shall we talk about this some where else and not just in a doorway ?"

Me and Gwendolyn grabbed her and teleported up the the meeting tower.

Once up there we teleported to the opposite side of the table from her.

" so what do you wish to bring up ?" We weren't going to bring up corves just yet , we would wait till rain and the others returned.

Cynthia " well until i can have more mines and other things like that built up in the nether i wanted to send some of my forces to the overwrold in the far plains just to do some mining. There is little people nearby after the ....war " she had something on her mind as she thought back to the war" once we have what we need we will go. So any problems ?" Hmmm.
