The world sometimes brings unexpected surprises. The dark magician wishing to be reborn created a last resort for himself, but in the battle with the god of space and time, reality was distorted. At the moment of death, the dark magician locked his soul base in a dark artifact, having absorbed enough souls, he had to return to the original place and enter the circle of rebirth. Unfortunately, his plans were not destined to come true ...

Fragments of memories replaced each other, pain mixed with unbearable fatigue. Consciousness of reality has dulled.

The bright smile of a beautiful woman was replaced by bitter crying, incredible sadness seized the mind, and then emptiness, warmth disappeared. Intermittent pictures flickered, they passed faster, the opportunity to realize something, but at the same time they were different. Emptiness and silence, an eternally dark ceiling and a luminous magic circle ... In each of the moments it soared inseparably in the sky, but like the hand of a clock, it was different every time.

Suddenly all the sounds died away, awareness surged as suddenly as an epiphany after a hundred years of blindness. Endless pain, burning eyes and indescribable panic seized the body. Time at that moment seemed to be in motion again and the world came to life!

- Aaaaaa! - a terrible cry tore the restraining shackles, and then the ground shook. On his part, the infinitely flowing time slowly returned to normal, but outside the world plunged into chaos.

In a huge hall, dotted with hundreds of blue threads, two magicians in a panic tried to stabilize the situation. These "threads" glowed and, if you look closely, anyone could see a human silhouette in their very center. The child, thin and pale, looked almost like a dead man. His dark purple hair shimmered with an unusual sheen from the blue glowing strands. At the moment, his entire body was trembling, and the more often this happened, the brighter the enveloping threads ignited.

Stopping next to the pink crystal, the wizard in a fancy red cap shouted in panic:

- He's awakening!

- Don't talk nonsense Fernando! - a fat dwarf ran up to the magician in exactly the same white robe, only without a cap. In the distance, a dozen more different panicking magicians could be seen. All of them were united by one thing - a white robe and a bloody heart with thorns on the back. They are all servants of the dark guild!

The named Fernando chanted some kind of spell in front of the crystal, and then jumped back in panic:

- I can't stop him!

- Get out! - the dwarf shoved the thin old man and approached the crystal. At the same time, even the earth began to tremble, the ceiling cracked and several stones drove into the stone floor. Everyone looked up in amazement. Hidden above, the magic blue circle began to crack. This raised even more panic, someone even dropped everything and just decided to run away!

No sooner had the dwarf approached the crystal than blue lightning burst out of it and slammed into the head.

- Heck! - with a crash, the magician crashed into the wall and part of his gray hair instantly turned to ash.

Fernando gritted his teeth and, deciding something, squealed:

- I'm leaving! The Gathering Crystal is unstable. There is no master, we cannot contain him! The explosion will destroy everything!

- To stand! - the dwarf jumped out of the wreckage and threw a furious glance at the thin boy in the center of the glowing threads. His body was already shuddering in full, a clear pain appeared on the child's face.

The dwarf gritted his teeth and took a few steps closer to the crystal:

- But I warned you ... It was not worth constantly consuming his "container"! This jerk has acquired terrible magical powers because of you, greedy idiot! - fixing a look full of hatred at his comrade, the dwarf growled:

- I wanted to create the purest tear ?! Here's an idiot's tear for you! - the dwarf poked his finger into the crystal: - Stupid, we will not run away now, more than ten years have passed! We drained him so often that his body could not stand it! Magic is a living idiot, forgot what the Master said ?! It had to happen!

- Nonsense! It's all you, old fart ... - the old man did not have time to finish his thought, when suddenly a hoarse cry was heard, quickly growing into a real cry of horror and pain.

The magicians immediately covered their ears, and Fernando, without hesitation, began to run away, using wind magic. A magic circle appeared under his feet, and he rushed upward.

The dwarf gritted his teeth and was about to follow him when something unimaginable happened. A wave of terrifying power along with a scream swept through everyone's mind. This blow was enough to completely destroy the consciousness of all those present, and then, the pink crystal cracked, but the expected surge of monstrous energy did not happen, rather the earth itself split. A terrible earthquake overtook this place, the walls collapsed, the ceiling collapsed. All equipment exploded and a fire began, even the bodies of the killed wizards caught fire. At the same moment, all the blue threads suddenly broke. The magic circle on the ceiling shattered into small fragments, and then the weakened body, imprisoned in this place for more than a decade, was finally freed from the shackles.

Having touched the ground, the guy at the moment woke up, his cry immediately faded away, but the groans of pain continued to come from his mouth. Eyes burned, all feelings were mixed, panic and horror seized both body and mind. Waking up here, he absolutely could not understand who he was, he simply could not remember! But, gradually, memories began to return. The moment of shock began to pass, he slowly realized who he was and at the same time did not understand at all. The body did not obey, as if it did not belong to him ...

- G ... where ... am I? - there was a hoarse whisper from the weakly parted lips. Dry, blue, face pale without a single blood, the boy looked like a dead man, but the body slowly began to react. Everything around was on fire, the walls were collapsing, and the earth continued to crack. The earthquake was growing noticeably, magic deformed the landscape and even the air in some places was distorted from such a concentration of ether. Magic tried to disperse around the world, but this laboratory certainly did not promise a good ending.
