As Zee emerged from the shadows, the Nova Elite Unity soldiers stationed at the barrier separating Zucheal from the land of man snapped to attention. Their eyes narrowed, hands resting on the hilts of their swords.
"Who goes there?" one of the soldiers barked, his voice firm but wary. "This is a restricted area. State your business."
Zee's gaze swept across the soldiers, his expression unreadable. "I'm just passing through," he replied, his voice low and even.
Before the soldiers could respond, the barrier behind them shimmered and opened, revealing General Felmod and his entourage of Nova Elite Unity soldiers. The general's face was a mask of fury, his eyes blazing with a fierce inner fire.
"Ah, Zee," General Felmod spat, his voice dripping with venom. "I should have known you'd show up here. You're just in time to witness your own demise."
With a swift, deadly motion, General Felmod drew his sword and lunged at Zee. But the young prince was ready for him. Summoning a burst of flame, Zee conjured a wall of fire that separated him from the general.
Just as it seemed like the situation was about to escalate, a voice boomed from the distance, echoing off the walls of the barrier.
"General Felmod, stand down!" King Zachariah commanded, his voice firm and authoritative. "Zee has been banished from our kingdom. Let him pass."
General Felmod's face twisted in a snarl, but he reluctantly sheathed his sword. "This isn't over, Zee," he snarled, his eyes blazing with hatred.
As the general stalked off, Zee felt a strange sense of unease. He knew that he had just made a powerful enemy.
The king's voice interrupted his thoughts. "Soldier, provide Zee with a horse. He is to leave our kingdom at once."
A soldier hastened to comply, leading a magnificent stallion to Zee. As he mounted the horse, Zee felt a strange sense of disorientation. He had never ridden a horse before, and the sensation was both exhilarating and terrifying.
With a final glance at the kingdom he had once called home, Zee urged the horse forward. The barrier behind him shimmered and closed, and he felt a strange sense of finality.
As he emerged from the cylindrical ice tunnel that had transported him to the realm of man, Zee was struck by the unfamiliar sights and sounds. The air was thick with the smells of smoke and sweat, and the sound of hammering echoed through the air.
A small, curious face peered up at him from the crowd. "Wow, a mermaid!" a little girl exclaimed, her eyes shining with wonder.
Zee smiled wryly. "I'm not a mermaid," he corrected, dismounting from his horse. "My name is Zee."
The little girl's face fell, but she quickly recovered. "I'm Lisa, protector of Ikuli village," she announced, her chest puffed out with pride. "What brings you to our village, Zee?" Zee did not say a word.
" and why are you wearing that outfit? Are you a worior mermaid?" Lisa asked while laughing. Zee looked at himself and noticed that he was still wearing the Nova elite unity uniform.
" I must get rid of this uniform," Zee thought to himself. " hey human can you find me good clothes in this realm," Zee said while giving Lisa a diamond ring.
" don't call me that, I just told you am Lisa," Lisa sneered while folding her arms in frustration.
" Why are you upset? That is what you are.. a human," Zee opined. "but, ok am sorry. Lisa will you please find me some good clothes, am sure you have a market here." Lisa got the ring and run towards her village,Ikuli, which was 500 meters away.
" so this is where I start, in my pursuit to restore balance to this world," Zee whispered to himself while looking at the cloudy sky.
