They spent the next 10 hours walking through a dense, dark and immense forest. Legs sore, parched throat and no signs of the semi-commander's location. Everyone was really tensed then suddenly Daniel, from the sky finally sees a mountain.
"Hey! I see the white mountain!"
"How long is it from here!?"
"Around an hour or two!"
"How can you even spot the mountain, its night time."
John relaxes a bit. But he is also furious at Daniel because he is using magic to fly in the air. Not everyone can use it.
"Come down you punk! Walk with us for a bit."
"Aww don't tell me you are already tired John??"
"Easy for you to say when you have been flying for 10 hours!!!"
"Hehe"
"Don't 'hehe' me!"
They finally reach the beginning of the white mountain and decided to rest for a while.
"Lets set our camp here."
John lit the fire and they began eating their dinner. They decided to call it a day. In the next morning they continued their journey. A white, smooth, flawless and beautiful mountain. Daniel up in the sky admired the mountain.
(This mountain really Is perfect. This mountain and Angela walking on it?? Just heaven. She is just so beautiful. She is just like 'her'. But I don't need 'her' now. She was the reason I'm here.)
"Hey! White hair!?"
"Huh!? Who are you calling a white hair!?"
"You, dumbo! When will we reach the previous castle of Rimora?? Semi-commanders will be waiting for us!"
"Just 30 minutes and we will be there!"
After reaching the end of the mountain they take a final break. Their nervousness increased with every step till here.
"So….this is the last break. Now, from here on be extremely cautious alright?? Anyone got questions to ask??"
"Do we have any objective other than saving Angela's brother??"
Daniel hums in a very cold voice and answers the question.
"Yeah…..maybe don't die??"
"Just try to keep us safe...."
"Yeah of course I will..."
He turns around and sees a dark yet tall castle with high gates. Looked like a dark-fantasy castle. Who knows how much blood has this castle asked for and how much more does it ask.
A beautiful grey horse standing there, still healthy and fit. The more it looked beautiful from the body, Its eyes looked even more dead. No one knew how much that horse has scene. It couldn't help in any way. It was suffering on its own.
They looked around for something, nothing but quietness. It felt like all the greenness had swallowed the shouts of thousands that used to live here.
At last they reached the gate, just a tall and rusty gate.
"This is it, suit yourselves!"
They enter in the castle through the cut.
"So….lets search floors one-by-one."
They searched all the floors, balconies, gardens and even king's room. Not a single clue or sign of Angela's brother.
"Angela….is the location correct??"
"Do you doubt a navigator's given location??"
"I will take that as a yes."
They wander for a while and at last, all 4 of them reach at the prisoners basement.
"So, this is the place that is left??"
"It seems so….."
"Then lets go in! What are we waiting for??"
"Reckless as ever! We've been cautious so far and now we just enter this room instantly?? NO!"
"Then what do we do??"
Angela just stares at Daniel with a smirk on her face.
"NO!"
"Yes…"
"Whyyy???"
"Because you have to." (Please do it. We just need to rescue him. Just this once and ill marry you!)
Daniel just makes a tired face.
*sigh*
"Fine!" (Why do I bother arguing??)
He transforms into a see-through being which can go through any plane for 30 seconds.
(I hate doing this....last time I got stuck in a wall.)
John and Syd get shocked.
"What is that thing!? Who is that?!"
"No way Daniel is that you??"
Daniel without saying a word just enters the room through the wall and passes the clear sign.
He gets back to his normal state and they all go in.
Long staircase going down. Enough darkness to make anyone disappear. John enters first.
