Capítulo 53: chapter 53 : Home of the Gods?
The three men walked for hours , climbing a mountain in the process and finally reached what graham thought was their destination.
"You walked for so long to come see a tree ?" Graham asked as the they stood before a huge tree on the edge of the mountain clif , even though the was no source of light around graham could make out see that the tree stood tall and mighty , giving the impressionthat it has been rooted to the ground since the dawn of creation . Bearing witness the beginning of all creation , the grey eyed man took a step forward and knelt down before the tree touching it's base
"Shut up , you don't want to miss this ." The blue eyed man beside spoke in an excited manner , catching Graham's full attention
"Open gates of Heta"they greyed man's words spread out like a whisper in a windy night
At his words heavy clouds started gathering above them , heavy winds kicked up and thunder roared in the dark cloudy sky. The tree lit up with strange purple carvings that graham had never seen before , to him they looked like ancient symbols used long ago by their ancestors , the carvings started from the base and they slowly spread to the rest of the tree covering it with the strange purple carvings.
"What in the name of ...." Graham couldn't finish his sentence as his eyes were glued to the strange scene
The cloud formed a vortex above the tree and lightning started gathering at the mouth of the vortex scaring Graham who started to back away slowly
"Uhh I don't think we should be too close to the tree!" Graham backed away leaving the blue eyed man standing alone looking at the sky
"Boom!! Rumble" lightning hit the tree illuminating the whole mountain , but instead of the tree being destroyed it actually absorbed the lightning before redirecting it back through it's tree branches turning into small electrical currents . The electrical currents started connecting forming a circular gateway around the tree that had the light from the purple carvings dimming down
"Crack crack" the tree cracked symmetrically and a feint light could be seen coming from the crack , the grey eyed man stood up turning to look at graham
Graham's heart was now beating loudly inside of his chest , perspiration rolled down his face as he placed his hand on his holster just in case he had to defend himself
"Graham Nimour I offer you two choices ,one I kill you where you stand right here right now or two , you come with us" the grey eyed man spoke in a calm manner
"Come with us mortal , come with us to Heta home of the Gods" the blue eyed man spoke , graham thoughts were racing. Deep down he knew they could easily kill him but he just could not leave with them, he had just gotten married and he planned to start a family plus the reason he had left his home was to find a power source that could serve as a replacement for their now dead sun .
"If I leave with you what will I gain , I mean I have a wife and my people are also counting on me to help them light up the world again . So I humbly ask if I leave with you will you help me ? " He asked
"This is no-" the grey eyed man was about to respond but his companion cut him off
"You will gain knowledge , knowledge that will make you the most powerful mortal to ever been born in Concilia. I can teach you how to create a new sun well I can teach you more than that." Blue eyes spoke and he extended his hand out opening his palm , in the center of his palm a small yellow light appeared and it started growing slowly getting bigger soon it was the size of a huge boulder with a pulling effect , it was as if it was drawing everything towards it and at the same time it also released an intense heat . Graham's lips parted as the words got stuck in his throat
"How?? You...how? Sun? Teach me!!" Graham fell to his knees with tears rushing down his eyes and his body trembling
" Come with us mortal" with a flick of his hand the miniature sun vanished , the blue eyed man walked to the tree and stood beside his companion waiting for Graham's decision
"I'm sorry love , but this is the only way to ensure our race survives "Graham whispered to himself before standing up and walking towards the tree
"Good choice graham " the grey eyed man placed both his hands in the crack on the tree and pulled , the crack got wider and wider until it was big enough for a person to step through . The grey eyed man walked in first followed by his companion , graham stood infront of the tree for a few seconds before following them inside.
A bright light blinded his eyes as soon as he stepped inside , he walked forward with his eyes squinted and no sense of where he was going since the light was so intense
"Hello ! Grey eyes , blue eyes where are you guys? Fuck im lost " graham tried calling out but he got no response
He kept walking until he felt a gentle breeze blow past him , graham opened his eyes slowly to a beautiful scenery. Standing on top of what seemed like a circular mountain range that had the most beautiful place he had ever seen in the middle of it.
"Gods this is magnificent..." He looked around as he took in the breath taking sight , Infront of him
The first thing that caught his attention was the steam locomotive and the sound of the engine huffing and the hissing sound of the air pump, the rumbling sound of it getting closer could be heard coming from a distance , the locomotive travelled on the mountain range that had a complex railroad system that went from the mountain to the land in the middle . Looking around with great interest he fell in love with the architectural design of this place that had a huge emphasis on the victorian architectural style coupled with many other styles, These styles included Gothic Revival Architecture, Italianate, Second Empire, Queen Anne, Stick Style, and Romanesque but what caught Graham's eye was the steam powered sawmills , well not only that but the hundreds of mechanical and steam powered buildings and objects all over this majestic place . The whole place seemed to be built on top of an island sized tree
"What is this place ? " Graham whispered to himself
"Welcome to Heta , home of the Gods" graham didn't see where the blue eyed man came from making him jump back in fright
"By the GODSSSS!! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME!!!... . Anyways i don't see any gods that you speak of around here though?a
and that city down there is way too small. Gods are supposed to be big and inconceivable , I mean that city down there is the most amazing thing I have ever seen surpassing my own understanding but I doubt Gods live here" graham spoke with his hand over his chest recovering from the scare
"You say Gods are supposed to be big and inconceivable huh?" The blue eyed man asked maintaining solid eye contact with him , graham nodded
"Very well then mortal.." the blue eyed man smiled and he took a step back , a heavy aura burst out from his body immediately suppressing graham to the ground and his body grew in size while his clothes burnt of from a red flame replaced by a blood red robe . His body turned blood red and 12 wings sprouted out from his back , 4 horns the size of giant tree with red flames dancing on them sprouted from his forehead and also his blonde hair and blue eyes changed color with his hair turning black and his eyes had looked like they had stars in them . His body continued growing in size until he was so big that graham couldn't even see his face
" Is that how Gods are supposed to look like to you?" The blue eyed man's voice rang out in a sarcastic manner and the heavy aura retracted back into his body , while he returned to normal and gave Timothy a teasing look
"You .... Huh?....I must be dreaming , yes yes HAHAHA Graham this is a dream there's no way you just met a god...yes yes no way " graham laughed like a madman but deep down his heart was beating so fast he could hear it in his ears
"Sadly this is not a dream and you're standing in the midst of a god why are you not kneeling down at my feet ."
Graham subconsciously fell to his knees in tears "save us , please"
Graham spoke in a whisper " you are Gods right? I mean you can make us a new sun before it's too late for us " graham crawled to the blue eyed man's feet and begged
"Sadly Concilia is meant to perish and no god is supposed to intervene with it's fate "the blue eyed man spoke
Graham looked up at him with disbelief "what do you mean our world is meant to perish , are you not gods ? Are you not the ones that the created this world ? !!!!!" He screamed in anger
" Your anger won't change anything , so it would be best for you to shut up and listen to what we have to say" Graham wanted to scream some more but a whisp of heavy aura suppressed him , he glared at the blue eyed man in anger but he couldn't even muster the strength to speak
"Cedric that's enough withdraw your aura." The blue eyed man rolled his eyes withdrawing his aura
"No need to call me by name." He mummered , earning himself a burning gaze from the grey eyed man
" Let me ask you this Graham,do you think it was by coincidence we found you ?" Cedric's companion turned to look at him as he spoke , the gears inside Graham's mind started turning as he thought back to their unusual meeting
"Are you saying??" graham came to a realization , the grey eyed man nodded
" We were looking for you "
