Chapter 2. Seheala

Riding across the desert with a thunderous boom, the three companions ride horses to the storm land of kalos. Where the presiding carcass of Kalos a demigod looms with powerful effect to change the landscape. Dark storms loom in the distance challenging any wanderers who dare travel as they travel across the white sea of sand. While the xanu mages travel far beyond their shadow, they dare not enter the storm lands.
Many have died in hope of reaching the carcass only to be ambushed by raiders and demons with their red demented eyes.
Hearing the clicking of demons that scurry nearby, sheala calms down the frightened horses. "Zafin gets their drawing ready," says Seheala, jumping off her horse with crackling lightning booming from her hands. The black komichi demons shriek in retort knowing they were found. With frightening speed they run like black hounds with four red eyes and long claws. Zafin ready's his sword spear to slash at any given moment as they close in on them. "Cyrus protects the horses," Zafin yells as one of the komichi demons lunges at zeheala.
In a swift motion she throws a white lighting spear at the kimochi, blowing a hole while it gives its last shriek. Zafin strikes in repeated succession decapitating like a dancer in motion flipping across each demon with speed. Blood soaks the air with every head dropping to the ground, "i just hope he doesn't get too carried away" thinks zeheala with a somber look.

Zafin ends the last komichi demon in a thunderous slash flying across the sand with blood flying off his sword in a swirl. "Mother never wanted any of this," Seheala thinks, looking at her brother with his bloodshot eyes. With the sand slowly covering the carcasses, hollowing their body's, zeheala looks around. "Zafin calm yourself, you look at the beast themselves" she says, while he looks past her he scoffs and walks past. Cyrus looks with concern at the blonde duo "did you lose a loved one" he asks zafin. Zafin then turns to Cyrus realizing where he's at, he calms down and "passes the wine" he says to cyrus. Cyrus tosses it to him, zafin taking a gulp he tosses it back at him. He nods and then mounts his horse slowly wiping the blood off his sword.
"I'm surprised you didn't try to run off,'' Zafin says after he finishes. "On the contrary I'd rather have you two then dogs chasing me with xanu" chuckled Cyrus looking ahead. "Indeed so" Zeheala says. "May I ask why you two have two lords behind your back being noble demon hunters and all" says Cyrus hiding his curiosity. "I was wondering when you were going to ask" thinks seheala when looking up at him. "Noble in blood but not in name after what the umbra lords did to us" looking at him with pain in her eyes. "If fate keeps you at the side I promise to tell you the rest". Wanting to avoid the conversation "then let us move onward" seheala says mounting her horse. "We should be there in three days if all goes well" beckons Cyrus while wanting to know more.
The storm clouds can be heard beyond the desert with the occasional wyrm drake flying below the clouds signaling the downpour to come. "Damn, I thought we had more time than that" Seheala thought.

"Zafin threw me high, I have to get a better view so we can find shelter" Zeheala says as she steps on his hands. He then launches her in the sky with both hands off her boots. "Looks like someone wants to get struck by a lightning bolt before me" Cyrus chuckles.
Seheala is still going high in the air then she chants a lighting spell that propels her mid air. Like a thunder goddess her hair and eyes glow white with bright radiance upon the sky. She then looks around taking in the landscape before her spotting a dimly lit castle at the bottom of a castle. "I found something," she says while flowing down like a water droplet, landing on the sand. "There seems to be an abandoned castle that might have people inside" she tells Zafin and cyrus. Cyrus knowing the landscape "it must be an abandoned war relic, god knows if there are umbra militias in there" Cyrus says as he starts an incantation bending down. I watch at cyrus as he says "ᚺᛁᚷᚺ᛫ᚨᛒᛟᚹᛖ᛫ᛊᛟ᛫ᛒᛖᛚᛟᚹ" he finishes, only to look up. Having my guard up a little and not show it with precaution "what's he doing"?. Hearing a cry beyond the sky a wyrm drake emerges its head out beneath the black clouds. Looking at its white beaming head looking below like a god. The wyrm drake looks slowly at the castle and hums a slow beautiful melody above us. Only to disappear back inside the clouds as the sunrays leave with it, "looks almost like the drawings i've seen of them" i think in awe.

"The surrounding is clear near it" he says as he stands up, gesturing for us to follow him. Thinking about...
