Debris, destruction and death are all I see.

The whole world is slowly deteriorating.

The crystals all caused this...

No, that something controlling me caused all of this.

Because I am the one who held all of them...

...and the one who unleashed their power, too.

Many years ago, I was appointed by the king, Doctor Who, to accumulate these crystals.

Crystals who contained great power within each of them.

Our king has great knowledge when it comes to time and space, and the powers that control it.

That is why he wants me to get those gems, which are rumored and researched that they control the mysteries of our universe.

Unfortunately, he doesn't know where they are kept.

His Majesty made it a mission for me. "You are my most trusted Knight, so I will entrust you to find and keep the crystals safe."

I immediately agreed, not knowing the possible dangers it can inflict to me. I only thought that holding those would be cool.

"But, be sure to never be blinded by its offered power for it may destroy not only you, but the whole world."

I started my journey, without knowing where to find the twelve crystals.

Confused and puzzled on where to start, I asked from all around our kingdom if there.

After a few weeks of questioning the townsfolk, I met this wizard named Harry Potter.

He said that each of the crystals has its unique shining color and power. The wizard also gave me a list of places where the crystals are kept by the God, named Lord Glitch.

(Sky, you've connected your stories. You should be proud.)

So, I read them all, thanked Harry, and continued to wander throughout the world to complete my mission.

The easiest ones were the ones in the White Forest, home to the kingdom's magical zebras and emus that shoot beams of light that can melt your soul away.

Sounds silly, right? But, it's true.

Stealthily, I made past the animals without them seeing me. In the farthest points of the forest, stood three pedestals.

The brown crystal, the green crystal, and the lime crystal.

The brown crystal has the ability to create humans and other living things and kill them if necessary. Scientists theorize that this was used to create the first humans in the world.

The green one controls nature. It created the whole Kingdom Plantae.

The lime one is the best for me since it will never fail to heal the ill or even revive people from death.
