The muddy mountains stand up high like giants. The tree's rough bark and the decaying leaves left the.beanches look like skeletons. " What have they done!"...Nalu's whimpering voice echoes through the barren deserted land. "Let us head towards the castle of king Dorius."

The dark stoned castle was glowing under the setting sun...The spot of turmoil smeared across it....The short stout guards welcomed us. The large dark chandelier with amber candles glowed in melancholy halo.
The short heafty man with red hair and beard sat on a large iron throne. Other men stood around him..all engaged in a serious conversation as the shade of something dense is visible all over their face.
King Dorius looked up at us and so did all...and suddenly all were busy welcoming is...king Dorius walked upto us..his wings crumpled...he bowed"welcome guardians...can we be more happy today?" His lips did twitch in a smile but it did not have life.

"The rot crawlers left every livi g leaf to decay. There is no food and the rivers are toxic with the dead aquatic life"...king Dorius' voice came out with almost a sob. "We tried to defend our land but ... The dark magic is somehow growing more powerful. Arfion ..my son..time is limited ...Find the emerald sceptre before my land dies...only the green magic of emerald can bring back the dead land of The mountain kingdom...it  is dying."
Arfion and Nalu both have their jaws clenched hard. I on the other hand know nothing. I look around the barren land..or the skeleton of once lush mountain kingdom.
"Something needs to be done." A small voice echoed in the back of my head....and now I know there is no time to waste.
