章節 30: //Ascension and sorrow//
It was now morning, the kingdom was resting in a state of recovery, guards could be seen searching through the kingdom for any potential survivors or dead bodies that may have been leftover from the night before, people were scattered in disorder around different sections of the kingdom, sounds of weeping were abundant as many families have lost their members and were now wallowing in their sadness.
The kingdom was badly damaged and its people in disarray, they were only left to wonder, where is Spencer?.
.
Laying in the crater formed from the meteor the night before, Spencer was in a state of hibernation, his body surging with the radiation from the meteor and in a state of equilibrium, every fiber of his being overflowing with foreign energy, reaching down to his very DNA. Spencer's body was shrouded in a field of energy that was rippling, sending frequent vibrations into the air.
Switching over to Quintus, his body was still badly injured, but all of the shards were carefully removed from his body and his wounds were wrapped in a cloth-like material to stop the bleeding, Quintus was still unconscious and was slipping closer and closer to death, Hopi, the eldest brother was standing by his fathers side with tears rolling down his face, the entire night he was by his side and watching him.
His mother, going by the name rose, was tending to Caster and Yarok, Yarok was not greatly affected by the scratches on his body, but Caster was a different story, her body was generally weaker than her brothers and she was in a slightly worse condition, she was covered in bandages not that much less than her fathers and she could barely move without feeling sharp pain at the site of her injuries.
Out of all the members of her family, other than her mother, Caster was the calmest out of her siblings during the strike, she maintained her composure and did her best to keep as calm as possible, going through the library to keep herself occupied, but she couldn't shake the urge that was swelling.
Castor was getting an urge to go look for Spencer, she couldn't help but think of him more and more with each one of his tablets that she reads, the feeling soon became unbearable as she put back the tablet she was reading and went outside of Spencer's castle in a hurry. Making her way through the disordered streets in search of Spencer.
Turning every available corner and looking at every possible direction, Caster looked franticly for Spencer. After some time, she came across the crater in which Spencer was located, scanning the center of the crater, Caster was mesmerized by the light being released from the rock, but she quickly identified the silhouette of a body laying next to the meteorite, following her intuition, she immediately ran down towards the silhouette believing it to be Spencer.
But, as Caster made her way towards the silhouette, due to her frantic movements she failed to watch her footing, losing her balance, Caster began to roll down the rest of the way into the crater, she wasn't able to catch her self and spun out of control. As she reached the bottom, she slammed her head on a small rock, knocking her unconscious and causing her head to bleed profusely.
Caster was relatively close to the meteor when she was knocked unconscious, causing her body to be bathed in its rays. Spencer, who was still in its slumber, was unaware of what was happening around him, his body was putting up no resistance to the meteor's trance.
The field around spencer dimmed as his body began to float into the air, sending out pulses that violently distorted the space around him, rocks began to rise into the air and shatter as the density of the pressure around his body increased exponentially.
Reaching a few feet, his body lingered in the air shining a bright dark purple hue, the light attracting the attention of the people in the kingdom as it could be seen from the crater.
The people mesmerized by the light started to make their way to its source, even those who were injured began moving towards the light.
The people slowly making their way were determined as the light pulled them in closer. The majority that had already reached the light was placed in a powerful trance-like state, yielding themselves in front of the light's radiance, the light showed no signs of dimming, until suddenly.
The light began to flicker franticly and send out crackling bolts of electricity, the light soon started to converge into itself, seeming as if it was being sucked in by something at its core. Within moments, the light that once shone with incredible radiance was now completely gone, leaving a Spencer covered in a layer of purple energy.
Not soon after, the layer of purple energy quickly began to crack and splinter off, revealing what was underneath, coming closer to the face of the flouting Spencer, the eyes could be seen twitching slightly. In the next instance, the eyes of Spencer flung open with extreme vigor, causing a massive pulse of energy to be released and surge through the bodies of the nearby people, those touched by the pulse of energy felt their bodies vibrate on contact.
Spencer began to float further into the air, reaching to the point where he could see the entirety of the kingdom in full view, his mind was clear, clearer than it has ever been before, his eyes generating a deep purple glow and releasing small bursts of electricity into the air, he was surrounded by a slight purple hue that covered the entirety of his body.
Looking down at the world below him, Spencer could feel EVERYTHING, he could sense every bit of life around him, along with their lifeforce and emotions down to there deepest levels. He could feel all aspects of his body down to his very own genetic makeup, he was instantly bombarded by the sudden influx of energy within him that was threatening to go on a rampage and erase everything.
Spencer's attention was immediately caught by the sensing of a very weak and fading life force, looking to its point of origin, Spencer was horrified, in his view was none other than little Caster, who had hit her head and was on the verge of death from the loss of blood. Spencer wasted no time and rushed over to Caster.
"Please be ok, please be ok"-Spencer
Kneeling and holding her in his arms, he could see how badly she was hurt, the side of her head was bleeding without end and her skull had a visible puncture in it, Spencer was on the brink of panic when he witnessed her condition, his energy responding to his grief by flaring up and going out of control, damaging the area.
Trying to collect himself, Spencer had a feeling as if he could help her, his instincts telling him to hold her closer to his body, he followed his senses without waste and did just that, holding her up against his chest, her body slowly became covered in the same purple energy his body was emitting.
Her wounds were visibly healing at an incredible Speed, Spencer became ecstatic after seeing that it was working, and begun to hold her closer to his body. Caster soon opened her eyes to see the face of a relieved smiling Spencer, the face she has been looking for since the beginning, a tear could be seen falling down Caster's face as she quickly embraced Spencer's neck and began crying.
Spencer only hugged her and expressed his happiness, picking her up and floating into the air, it all coming naturally, Spencer looked at all of the injured people of his kingdom and couldn't help but be filled with sadness, with his newfound abilities, he could feel every bit of their pain, their loss, it was intolerable.
Waving his hand, Spencer sent a wave of energy throughout the entirety of the kingdom, following the same feeling he had when he healed Caster, the energy surged and seeped into their bodies, healing them in an instant and rejuvenating their strength. Spencer could no longer sense any dying life signs around him, but he could still feel their sadness.
If it wasn't for his mental fortitude, Spencer would have been overwhelmed by the unending barrage of negative emotions present, he needed to fix everything. Floating overhead carrying the still crying Caster, spencer made his way to his castle.
Landing at the entrance to his castle, Spencer entered to see people gathered in the castle halls, all of which were confused and disoriented by their sudden rejuvenation, Spencer began walking in the direction his chambers, those present forming a path for him to walk, Spencer entered his chambers to see Quintus laying on his bed, sitting up and examining himself in confusion while his wife was holding on to him crying tears of joy.
Once Spencer entered the room their attention was caught by the sound of the doors opening, Quickly looking up, Quintus came to see that it was Spencer holding his crying daughter in his arms. Spencer looked at Quintus's family that was present in the room and smiled at the sight that they were all in perfect health and seem to be regaining their bearings.
Walking over to rose to give her Caster, He noticed that Caster was holding unto him with everything she had, even though she had ceased her crying not long ago, she was still reluctant to part from Spencer. Giving up on removing Caster, he shifted her to his left side and held her up with his arm, signaling rose to let her be.
Carrying Caster in his arms, Spencer walked outside of his castle and began looking for Hagen and Dinah, making use of his newfound power, Spencer closed his eyes and searched the entire kingdom for Hagen and Dinah, the energy sending out pulses and acting as his eyes and ears.
No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any life signs that would match theirs, his failure to find any only allowed one thought to flow through his mind. But he didn't want to jump to the worse possibility, flying over the kingdom, he used his senses to the highest degree, trying his hardest to at least find something.
It was only a matter of time before his nose caught their scent, he quickly followed the scent's origin.
"Oh god"-Spencer
The scent of the two halted in the path that the meteor had struck, there was nothing left of the area to show that they were there, he could only realize from the scent that lingered in the wind, holding his head down to grieve their death, Spencer took some to think of their time spent together, despite their struggles, they were still the closest thing he had to a family. This was the final breaking point for Spencer, the sorrow that permeated the atmosphere was too much for him coupled with the pain of losing two of the people that he experienced building his kingdom with, he couldn't hold on any longer.
Gentle droplets began to fall to the floor below, these droplets weren't the sign of rain or a change in the weather pattern, they were a complete representation of Spencer's deep sadness, his tears flowing from his face as he held a stoic expression, his final attempt at keeping his composer.
Still holding Caster in his arms, Spencer held her closer and looked up at the sky with only one pure thought on his mind.
"I will protect you all"
