Morith: The Search

Scroll 10: Windy Cliffs

Tomorrow finally came, and it’s the day of Red to embark on a quest to find the oracle. The sun is shining in the sky with a beautiful look. The sky was clear as blue, the surrounding is windy and breezy, and you can feel the relaxing morning. But amidst the picturesque sunup, Red’s heart is filled with worry and uncertainty; she’s not confident on the road she will take. On her back, she brought a satchel filled with the things she needed. Red then asked herself,

“I’m just wondering… what will happen if we succeed on this search? What does the oracle know about me?” Red then sighed and said. “I guess I just have to trust. Everything’s fine.”

Red then walked around and took ten steps to the right as she remembered something. Her eyes widened, walked around and exclaimed. “Terson, is he prepared?! I need to check on him.”

She then rushed to the male section of the second floor where all the pads were situated. She fixed herself, firmed her actions and knocked on his door three times. Terson heard it, and knew that Red was on the other side of the door. He said, “Wait Red… I’ll just have to fix more of my things. Just wait right there.”

“Okay.” Red gladly agreed.

Terson fixed his things. Until he saw one thing that he forgot to put in his bag; his father’s gift to him. It was a mysterious one; it’s a silver stake for a vampire.

It was made from pure silver that any werewolf who tries to touch it would burn to death. The stake has a symbol of a moon. Terson have dropped a tear on it by that very time, he then dried his tears and putted the hoary object on his bag. He then went out and saw Red, waiting on the door, wearing clothes that are ready for battle and travel.

“You look great with that!”

“Thanks, I appreciate your compliment.” Red thanked him. Suddenly, a call was heard by Red’s mind. It said, “Red, go here to the meeting room. I and the professors are waiting for you both. This is Professor Ricardo.”

Red then stopped for a while and Terson wondered, so he asked her. “Red, what’s wrong?”

“Professor Ricardo and the professors are waiting for us in the meeting room.” Red said.

“What?” Terson questioned as he began to follow Red on her steps towards downstairs.

“I heard a voice on my head saying, we have to go to the meeting room. Professor Ricardo was the one talking, in just a couple of days I have easily recognized his voice.” Red’s forehead then wrinkled, she then said. “Come on Terson! I never get wrong when I say something.”

Terson nodded, and hurried with Red to the meeting room. Along the silent corridors, their footsteps can be heard. As they reach the meeting room, there, they saw Headmaster Olfin, Headmaster Radim, Headmistress Fire and Professor Ricardo. Headmaster Olfin then said,

“Red, I am indeed glad that you have paid attention to Professor Ricardo’s call. Now that you are here, there are some things we have to tell you.”

“What are those, headmaster?” Red asked.

Headmistress Fire then said. “Denguard has been one of the grandest kingdoms written in history. It is one of the lands that were able to maintain its beauty and its richness in sources and products. Denguard was one of the kingdoms who were able to construct the sturdiest buildings in its finest materials and tools. This kingdom was regarded as an important kingdom. But do the people know why?”

Headmaster Radim then continued. “Denguard holds many secrets; its connection to the oracle, its true beginning on how it was formed, and Abalour Academy.”
