How does he know my name!? Alex thought backing away.

Otlius's transparency slowly faded into a solid human body, looking clean and alive. He descended onto the ground looking just like the average human, minus the medieval clothes.

"Hello, Alexander. My name is Otlius and I am a sorcerer. I've been having prophecies about you. I understand that you plan on raising Lucifer from Hell. I will help you amongst your quest to fulfill your destiny. May I just ask your reason for wanting to raise him?" said Otlius, a wide-mouthed Alex staring back at him.

He shook himself out of the trance and replied, "Uh-I-uh... I'm just tired of this cruel world. It's full of hatred and corrupt. If I free him from the cage, I'll convince him to do what I command and help me get revenge on the ones who caused me all of this pain I suffer daily. What's your reason?"

"I also want revenge. Especially on the demon who convinced the King to banish me from the kingdom and killed me." Responded Otlius with anger in his tone.

"Demons exist!?" Asked Alex, Otlius raising an eyebrow at him.

"Of course they exist, they are the source of all true evil that happens in this world. I had a prophecy that something tragic would happen around the year 2001. Something truly evil that only Lucifer himself would've planned something that big. I don't remember what happens, but all I know is that the demon will be revealed in the smoke of the destruction." Said Otlius as Alex stared back in disbelief.

"Do you remember what happens during your prophecy about me?" Asked Alex.

"I could only see to the point where you and I team up to raise him. Well, I would like to see your King, unless your from Oakhold." Demanded Otlius looking over the mountain.

"You mean the mayor?" Corrected Alex.

"No I mean the King. What's a mayor?" Questioned Otlius with a puzzled look.

"Hold on, what year do you think it is?" Asked Alex.

"Why 638 of course." Replied Otlius, again looking puzzled.

"Well, actually it is the year 1734." Said Alex.

"What!? I've been dead for about 10 centuries!?" Asked Otlius in complete disbelief.

Alex chuckled a little. "Whatever, we must begin. In order to summon him, you must find the scattered relics and put together the altar." Said Otlius.

"I thought you had to break 66 seals in order to free him." Said Alex.

"Well yeah but a good man has to go down into Hell and spill blood in order for the first seal to be broken, and considering we are going to summon the Devil makes us bad people. This is the easier way that took me decades of study to find out." Replied Otlius, leaving Alex overwhelmed with these facts. "We first need to find the location of the first relic by using an Enchanted Crystal. The only way to create an Enchanted Crystal is to find all the elemental runes. You need to successfully complete the Trials. Each elemental rune can be collected by each Greek God whose element represents the runes. The first God on the list is the Greek God of water, Poseidon. Are you ready to begin?" Said Otlius, taking out his arm.

"Yes." Responded Alex as he grabbed Otlius's arm and the two turned to a gas and the world around Alex faded to black...
