Agartha - Quest for the Legacy

Deablo asked Brad to close his eyes. Brad closed his eyes and felt something warm trickling down his spine. The tickling sensation was overwhelming for him. He wanted to scratch his back, but he heard Olympia's voice just beside his ears, "Don't move."

Brad was stunned at first, but he understood, so he let them do whatever they were doing. Olympia looked at Deablo and nodded. Deablo bit his finger and drew something around Brad with his blood, which was astonishingly black in color. But once he completed circling Brad, he came in front of Brad and touched Brad's forehead. Dark wisps of smoke could be seen entering Brad's soul through his forehead. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Olympia inched closer to Deablo and stroked his head. She circulated the element of ice within her. Although, she could not manifest it now, she could provide some comfort to Deablo for some time. She was worried about the little fella. As she circulated the ice within her, she saw that the stability of Brad's sould increased in the consciousness. As if understanding something important, she sat there cross legged behind Deablo and tried to circulate ice within her. Ice is not like water, and it cannot flow, so, it was hard for her to circulate it.

Nevertheless, Deablo could feel the cooling sensation. He wanted to stop Olympia, but he couldn't talk now. If he did, all the efforts will be wasted. So, he simply shut his mouth and focused on Brad. He transferred some of his powers to Brad. Brad would be able to enter and leave his body for a month, but there will be a price. And Deablo would have to pay that price. Deablo sighed. He knew that losing his powers now can create lots of problems. But he had faith in Olympia. Maybe this was not a bad choice at all. Deablo sighed again. He knew that it was important for Brad to do this. And he sympathized with him because Olympia and he never had parents. So they knew the importance of parents. He closed his eyes and a tear dropped from the corner of his left eye. It fell on the rune drawn around Brad, and the rune lit so brightly that it blinded all three of them.

"What happened?" Deablo was the first one to come to his senses.

"Deablo, did you cry?" Olympia asked in a fearful voice.

"Umm. About that. I did cry. Only a drop. But what has this got to do with me crying, woman? Tell me fast." Deablo howled near Olympia's ears seeing her in a daze.

"Don't you know the effects of your tears?" Olympia asked.

"How would I know? I never cried in my life." Deablo replied smugly, but soon the smugness disappeared seeing Olympia's worried face.

Olympia said nothing more as she sighed. She could not meet their eyes. She knew the effect of his tears.

"Deablo, come here." She called Deablo gently. When Deablo came near her, she patted his head. Brad watched from the sidelines. He could not step out of the rune. His whole body was on fire. He did not know what to do. He was terrified.

Olympia patted Deablo constantly which made Deablo sleepy. He yawned and soon fell asleep. Olympia opened her mouth and told Brad, "Danger is approaching." She looked at her surroundings which resembled the night sky. Suddenly, she pointed at a star and said, "See, that one is moving. Danger is approaching."

"What do you mean?" Brad asked with great difficulty.

"I need to do what Deablo started. Dark and black smokes emitted from her body, which was absorbed by Brad's forehead. Suddenly, there was a noise, "BOOM…"
