Tales of Aya Scarlett: Hidden By The Gods

Search: The Marauder

They left Glacierford to find Gwendolyn if she was really there, hoping to be alive, after the sun has set, they spent the night in the forest and camped there. Sitting in front of the campfire, Aya stares at the picture she has and wonders about something

Aya's POV: I wonder why that lady was even connected with our family to even begin with?

Then Ceris just woken up, and see Aya sitting infront of the campfire approaches her

Ceris: Aya, are you okay?

Aya: Milady, I have something that I want to ask about

Ceris: And what is it, young lady?

Aya: I always wonder why Lady Gwen was even connected to my family in the first place?

Ceris: Sorry but, I don't have the exact answer to give you right now, aside from the fact that she is a powerful sorcerer. But if we managed to find her I'm sure that you'll have the answers given to you, is it okay with you?

Aya nods her head and

Aya: It'll do all we have to do to is to find her there if she was really alive

Aya smiles at Ceris

Ceris: Yes

And she pats Aya on her head to comfort her, and they went back to sleeping much shortly after. The next day, the continued the journey on the way there, while Aya is riding her horse behind of Ceris, she notices a cave and alerts her about it

Aya: Milady, I found here a cave entrance

Ceris: Aya, let's enter it now

Aya nods at Ceris

And the two enters the cave. Aya is quite scared of pitch black darkness to some degree, taking into consideration that this is her first time being in a cave, Ceris lights up a torch for her

Aya: How thoughtful , Milady, thank you

Ceris: no problem

After wandering in the cave for a while they reached the Lush Cave as the two entered the area, suddenly the two were ambushed by a group of skeletons

Aya was shocked that there are still remaining undead forces hiding in this area after the Herobrine was killed by Ceris a year ago

Aya: What's with them!? I thought the Frostbourne had killed them off during the war against the Undead almost a year ago

Ceris: The Frostbourne may be successful in killing Herobrine with our help, but the other undead lords went into hiding after their leader was killed in action

Aya: Then wha-

Ceris: Aya! Look out!

Then a vine appeared out of nowhere, targeting the young lady, but Ceris managed to push her out of the way just before it even did some serious damage to Aya, Then their leader came out of hiding

Aya: Ow! That hurts Milady what was that for?

Ceris: Look

Aya stands up and turns around just to see a woman with a green hair with a vine out on her back and holds a scythe as her weapon, Aya senses her aura,

Aya's POV: What the hell is with her? her aura's heavy it seems she's having fun when she's hurting the people she encounters, what should I do no-

Aya standing in front of that woman frozen in fear thinking, then suddenly

Ceris: Hey instead of trembling with fear here

She throws a sword to Aya, to which the young lady, responds by catching it

Ceris: Snap out of it, use that sword, it seems that woman will be unleashing attack any moment from now

Aya: Roger that,

Then the woman starts to speak

???: Wait, I am the guardian of the Lush Cave, Azalea, what are your intentions with this place?

Aya steps forward but still holds her sword, Ceris holds her arm as if to try to stop her from coming forward

Ceris: Wait, this woman is dangerous, you read her aura a while ago right? Are you sure you know what you are doing, What if she attacked you

Aya turns around to Ceris with a worried but determined face

Aya: I know that you are worried for me Milady but, I am aware of what I am doing at this very moment, I will make sure that I'll tell her about it and we trained right? Milady, so please don't worry

Then Aya turns around to speak to the woman

Azalea: Done with your conversation with that grapehead? Now tell me who are you and what are your intentions in this place?

Aya: I'm Aya a traveller and this is my master, Ceris and we're here to find an important mage named Gwendolyn, who was said to be stranded in this place

Azalea: Oh her? How about this cape I found a few weeks ago it does seems that woman got fucked over by something

Ceris: It can't be! yo-

Aya stops Ceris from attacking the Undead Lord

Aya: Wait, this doesn't mean that she is dead Milady, there is a chance she might have escaped

Azalea: Now you two got the answers you both wanted here, now get out of here right in this moment, never to see any your faces here in this place

Ceris steps in and yells at the woman

Ceris: NO! We won't we'll still search for her no matter what, you showing her cape doesn't mean that she is dead and we won't let you hinder our search for her

Azalea unleashes her vines and prepares to fight

Ceris: Aya, are you ready for this?

Aya nods in agreement to her

Then the two attacks Azalea then she releases her vine and attacks the pair.
