Chapter 3 - AGES

(Centuries and ages passed, they vigorously attempted to free them and to understand. What had encased them? A sudden miracle occurred, the crystal cracked.)

What a miserable day. I shouldn't have com-

How could such a thing even occur

WHAT A TRULY FASCINATING PHENOMENO! Grand, grand, grand father, your effort was not in vain.

(They were in a state of frantic panic about what had happened to them.)

You, too, so please calm down. Let's start with your family. Your sister is still alive, I think, and your mother is dead.

Are my parents and sisters well?

Your parents are dead, but you're really lucky. A few of your sisters are at the water chamber, comatose.

(Sayuri leans towards the wall at the sorrowful news and asks to see them.)

Cool, right? After generations of hard work, incubation pods finally became possible.

Eleanor, Mira...

You said generations? So that means a lot of years have passed.

(The young man had told them that 50,000 years had passed. The monsters and miasma appeared, and almost killed humanity.)

Many lives were lost, but something amazing happened: astral beings started to appear, and they helped us. Please follow me.

(click clack)

(Vvvrrrrmmmm)

This Planetarium is where the constellations pick their patron.

They were real!? So she wasn't lying. We have to look up to them until one of them chooses us, right?

(They were surprised when Koronu had known this, as he looked towards the stars; one caught his gaze. A lone mistress raising her hands, and swiftly, all his surroundings sifted. )

Gemini, being chosen by you was a dream of mine. Where are we, and... where's the other? 

Weird? I didn't expect you to be interested, and we're in the astral plane. This is also my room, and my sister is... gone.

 Anyway, you see my hand, right? Initiate the contract, and you'll be my dear patron.

(He nailed down, took the mistress's hand, and kissed it as he did cosmic; energy consumed him. The woman spoke again and said, " Does he vow his loyalty and life to her?")

Yes

(Weeee-oooowww)

HEY! HEY! You're back, we need your help, a swarm of monsters is coming. Get equipment.

(zzzip.)

(The researcher instructed them to go to the control room. When they had appeared, the marshal explained the current status.)

A large swarm of monsters is coming from the north of Lyborea forest. Our major threat is the two trolls in the group.

The main goal is to take out the trolls; it would be great to take out both, if it's possible. Dismissed to your post

(The combatants went to the front of the base as their orders instructed and prepared for they arrively.)

They're here! Physical combatants, our opponents have arrived. Maintain your position. Gunners shot the first batch of monsters.

So we attack the remaining ones that escaped.

The goblins are coming!

(The creatures ran towards them, and the soldier equally responded to their advancement. One severed its head, and another's were consumed by a pool of darkness.)

(HROOARGH!)

That black skin, crystal back, and those stone scales. I-I-it's a troll!

 (Freeze)

You idiot! Now isn't the time. Focus. I'll take care of this.
