The Ballad of Livena SongStar

Chapter 8 - The Darkness

- Elisena's House a few weeks ago –

Arskan carefully placed Livena onto the bed and went to sit with Elisena by the table. He grabbed the glass of whisky and asked her.

"What is it that You wanted to talk to me about, death witch?" Elisena looks at him and says with a smile on her face.

"I wish to talk about Your soul..." Arskan has a worried look on his face hearing her say this and said. "What about it? I'm not going to die I am?"

Elisena giggled a little and says to him. "No, You are not going to die. For Your soul is... different than what I have seen..."

Arskan looks at her and says a bit confused. "What do You mean by... different?" Elisena looks at him and says to him as she picks up her glass of whisky.

"Well... Your soul is unnatural and strange like this little whisky glass here. Its full and contains something that is either sweet or tasts awful.

But when its contents is gone there are traces of it that is still there..." She then drinks the whisky in the glass while Arskan says to her.

"You're telling me that my soul is like a whisky glass? That doesn't make this even better for glass is also very fragile, are You saying that my soul is fragile?"

Elisena smiles and says as the pours herself another glass. "No, Your soul is not fragile. If it were then You would be long gone by now,

What I am saying is Your soul is different and quite special. For You are part of something that is much bigger than me or any celestial being in this world."

She then turns to look at Livena who was still unconscious and tells him. "And that involves this girl you have decided to travel with..."

Elisena turns back to look at him and says. "It will be of great importance that You keep her safe and help her in anyway You can,

For both of your fates has great destines to fullfull." Arskan looks at her and says with a confused look on his face.

"Great destines? What do You mean by that?" Elisena kept smiling and told him before Livena woke up screaming.

"You find out what that is when the time comes, Hunter..."

- Present day –

After Livena and Arskan entered through the portal they found themselves in a dark and unforgiving place.

Dark thunderous clouds rumbled in the distance as dark murky water flowed around them. In the far distance they saw a large horn of a large beast in the distance.

The horn of the beast they came to slay and save the world from. Livena looks at the monster for a few seconds before turning to look at Arskan.

He gave her a reassuring smile which made her feel even more braver. Livena were about to go with him when She heard Gardon shouting her name behind her.

She and Arskan quickly turned around and saw Gardon standing there with a look of fury on his face.

His right arm missing and covered in bloodied bandages. Livena looks at Gardon with a surprised look on her face and said.

"Gardon? I thought You were..." Gardon looks at her and says with a serious look on his face. "Dead? I cut my own fucking arm off to avoid being monster food.

Now Im here to take You home..." Livena looks at him and says with a serious look on her face. " I am not sure if You are paying attention here, but we are standing in a fucking prison that is keeping a thousand year old monster captive.
