~Continued~

The forest seems brighter around you as you walk confidently towards the tower. The doors seem to open of their own accord as you move through the gates. It is not dark anymore. The lights are glowing in the golden hall. There is no sadness here, as the light comes from the walls, now made of a crystal substance, and the hall of the tower is crowned with a luminescence. The whispers are back. But here they are not sad, not calling for a life, not seeking a memory. They are singing.

You see the stairs of the tower, now a flowing walkway leading up and up till the top of the tower rises out of view in an emerald blur. You go up the steps, knowing the truth and the end is near. The blue creature has returned now, you feel its presence about you as you climb to the top.

Triumph.

The top of the tower is open to the stars. The sky is dim now, as the sun gives up its last few rays of golden light. The stars are closer than they have ever appeared before. Their light is focused on a shimmering orb in the center of the tower, glowing with a blue energy. The blue creature approaches it. For the first time, you can almost make out its form.

Infinity.

As the creature makes contact, light seems to drain from the world. You are alone in a void with the glowing orb. You hear a whisper coming from the orb. A voice, almost. You feel as if you could touch the stars. Then you awaken. You are atop the tower. You see the light of the stars once more, glowing brighter all around you. The orb is gone. Its light, the light of the stars, and the soul of the blue creature are no longer in one place. They are all around you. You look over the edge of the tower. The world seems small below you as the tower is miles high. The forest is glowing in the night, it stretches to the horizon. The tower is made of gold and crystal, and it reaches the sky. The Crown of the World. A new energy enters the top of the tower. This one is a shimmering silver. You reach towards it, not knowing why. And as the light fills you, you find you can sense everything, the forest, the stars, the tower. And you feel acceptance. You know why you are here. You know this is who you were truly meant to be...

From there more people surround you, attracted by the now radiant tower. The soft glow both a haven for the lost and a barrier against the wicked. Slowly a village collects around the tower, from a village to a town, and from a town to a city all bathed in the towers light. You now older and wiser than you once were now sit atop the tower looking at what you have set in motion, and though the blue creatures no longer come to visit you, you know they are at peace. And so you close your eyes one final time and take your last breath drifting off into eternal slumber....

You saw many lights glow as you walk through , colors glowing before your eyes. The creature would disappear , you looked at the sky , then the noticed a little trail made with the blue leaves on the trees , you followed it and you almost slide off a cliff , you were lucky enough to grab on to a hand , you look up and you saw a kid , with a pair of goggles , a map and etc . He looked like he was a traveler. Wondering , trying to figure out what this place is made for. The kid would pull you up , starting a conversation , telling you he didn't know there are other people here , he was looking for the crystal that nobody has ever found , you can tell he's just trying to create world history . You decided to join his quest.Both of you were chatting along while walking. The kid told you his name , Eric. Eric pointed to a tower , the tower would be surrounded with black smoke on the top , a dragon would be guarding the top of that tower. He would tell you that the crystal is up there , at the you heard this you felt scared and tired. (You walked a long way to get there and you only ate bread , so you are tired as hell) Eric suggested that we can take a rest , you nodded . He would set up a tent , with sleeping bags , Eric was well prepared , soon you went to sleep .The nest day , while you were going up that tower , you felt like death warmed up

As you climb in the tower, the shadowy smoke circles around you making a chill go down your spine, you felt your heart getting colder the closer you got to the top, however you were determined and pushed through your the cold and reached the top.However, the sky was in a battle between light and dark as storm clouds covered the sky causing the colour of the forest to drain away. Suddenly a dragon with scales enveloped in darkness stands in front of you. Strangely you realize that there is no crystal on the top, however it was too late the turn back, you had to follow fate and battle the dragon....
