Goblin's Hollow 4 The Vampire's Quest

Chapter 34

                          Intently focused, going deep into a visual trance she once again saw the dense black mist. Waiting for it to clear she tried to focus on any impressions, but as the time passed by the fog didn't clear. Another twenty minutes and still nothing. 

"What do you see?" Salem inquired with concern in his deep voice. 

"A fog of evil." She whispered.

"Do you see my father?" Salem asked in wide eyed panic.

"No I don't, but I get a feeling he is okay. I don't see Narsisca or Spencer." She told him in a bold tone.

Pandora shook her head slowly then sipped her drink.

"What do we need to do?" He asked.

After taking a long slow sip from the warm mug of sorceress brew, the empress looked at him, then gave the answer.

"Prepare for a less than wanted adventure." She finally told them. 

He gave the empress a glare before speaking his mind.

"Is it because they're vampires?" He asked irritated.

"No. It's because i've never dealt with that much evil in one place, the dark energy of the underworld. Besides that you're half vampire and we're friends." She pointed that out to him with a glare.

"Yes, that's true. Forgive me for being a supernatural idiot." He bowed to her.

"It's fine. To be sure we need to go to the underworld, see if they've been captured, tortured or enslaved to the demons." She rattled on nervous as hell. 

For the next 15 minutes they sipped in silence each of them thinking of the journey, until finally Salem asked, " When do you think we should go?"

" i suggest first thing tomorrow morning. The dark creatures are weaker in the day, and that will give you both time to prepare." She told him and Pandora both. 

They nodded to her and stayed another hour discussing a few different options, battle plans and magical items to bring along.
