"Well... this is a nice change of scenery" I voice, breaking through the silence.
Eliana looks at me like I just stepped in dragon droppings, and tracked through the house. "It's a prison cell."
Rolling my eyes, I scoff "Obviously. Come on, I was being sarcastic."
The silence engulfs us once more, everyone taking turns looking at each other, before we all eventually settle our gaze on the walls. "So... Cora." Arius voices, drawing all eyes to him. "What's our exit strategy?"
"Our what?"
"Oh my god, we're all going to die!" I exclaim, leaning back, and acccepting our demise.
"Don't be so lucky. King Matt hasn't decided what to do with you pest." A guard walking by on patrols states before moving on. I wouldn't stand for it so I scoot up to the bars and shout after his retreating form.
"Oh yeah? Well if I die tonight, I want to donate all my organs EXCEPT my middle finger. Be sure to deliver that to the King." He doesn't say anything, but I know that was just another treason to add onto the list.
Suddenly Cora shouts 'Eureka' pulling everyone's attention towards her. "Guys I may know how to get us out of here. But it may be, uh slightly... dangerous."
"Dangerous?"
"It's pretty dangerous, not in a harmful way like dragons, just risky. If we play it right though, we should all get out of here with our limbs intact. 78 percent sure." She notes before motioning each of us to scoot in.
Join four teens, each with their own gifts, on a journey to reunite two kingdoms and save the world from unexpected dangers.
When the truth comes out, there's nowhere left to run.
Season 3 of Eliona's War
***
When Seth received a new virtual reality video game from his uncle, he wasn't expecting to get swept up into a whole new world called Eliona. As it turned out, Eliona and its people are far more dangerous than Seth could ever have imagined. There is a real consequence to playing this game: it's changing him, and it might not be for the better.
Now that Seth/Severance knows the truth of Eliona, there's no going back. Eliona is dying, and in order to save it, he needs to beat a very difficult dungeon before anyone else does. And on Earth, things are even worse. It's come to light that Eliona is leaving a mark on its players, and suddenly, everyone wants to be involved. Players find themselves with a target on their back, and Seth? He might just have the biggest one of all.
Too bad for them, he's done running.
