Chapter 58: Hints of the Past Begin

 

*The heroes are walking through the temple and the sacred energies in it give it a golden tint. However, the sacred energies soon begin to affect their minds*

Zeth: I’m starting to feel dizzy…

*Zeth shakes his head a bunch and then sees everyone else disappear. Suddenly, he finds himself in a new area*

Zeth: Where did everyone go? Aggg! Is this what that statue meant?

*Zeth starts to hear voices in his head*

Various Voices: The boy… Destiny… My brother…. Consumption…. Run…

Zeth: What are all these voices?

*Zeth starts to feel dizzy again*

Zeth: So dizzy… What do I do…?

*Zeth begins aimlessly just running through the halls*

Zeth: Where do I go? What is this? Am I trapped…? Make it stop!

*In his craziness, Zeth ends up running into a wall and falls backward onto the ground*

*Zeth just lays there with a blank stare and his eyes are barely open. The voices continue*

Various Voices: Your son…. Demands…. What do we do!?... Consumption… In danger…

Zeth: The voices… won’t stop… what… do they mean…?

*Zeth sees flashes of a baby*

Zeth: Is that… me…?

Various Voices: His sacred power…. Gone… Dark Goddess… Did something…

Zeth: What…?

Various Voices: My son… Hide him… Dark Goddess… Consumption… Crimson…

Zeth: Crimson…? What about him…?

Various Voices: My brother… Escape… I will help… Storm comes… Save him…

Zeth: brother…?

Various Voices: Give him… Hope… A future… He deserves… Better…

Zeth: What does… all this mean…?

Various Voices: Go to… Nearby city… Guard… Zeth… Your life…

*Zeth sees flashes of a cloaked woman carrying a baby in a dark and stormy night*

Zeth: The story mom told me… this is it… isn’t it…?

*That begins a vision of the entire thing in Zeth’s mind. The cloaked woman approaches Miranda and Jack, who are walking down on the sidewalk with nobody else outside near them*

Cloaked Woman: Can you two adopt this baby? His name is Zeth. He’s four months old. Please, I beg of you!

Miranda: Is this your child?

Cloaked Woman: No, but I am doing this for the baby’s mother. Please, you must adopt him. It’s urgent.

Jack: Why is that?

Cloaked Woman: There is no time to fully explain but bad people want to capture this baby and do horrible things to him.

Miranda: That does sounds bad.

Cloaked Woman: Yes, so please take him. If we hurry, they won’t know that he has new parents.

*Miranda takes the baby*

Miranda: We will take good care of him.

Cloaked Woman: Thank you very much.

*Miranda and Jack leave with the baby and the cloaked woman goes to the forest where she came from to meet back with another woman. That woman is Zaydra*

Zaydra: Will he be okay?

Cloaked Woman: Yes, the family seemed very caring.

Zaydra: You didn’t tell them that we are hiding him from demons, did you?

Cloaked Woman: No, I didn’t want to scare them. I just used a generic “bad people” to say why it was urgent.

Zaydra: Good job, Clora. Now we must return.

*The vision ends. Zeth’s eyes fully open and he gets up*

Zeth: I’m understanding more of it now. I must get back to the others. Who knows how this could be affecting them?

*Zeth begins moving through the halls again*

Narrator: More of Zeth’s past has been pieced together. He must now return to the others and finally meet Harmona, the Light Goddess.
