Temple and Palace of Wind
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2U3NCx_qN8 )
The morning light came streaming in between the cracks of the shades. It hit the sleeping couple but didn’t make them wake up yet. But it was Shine who did first. The vixen felt the love of her life that she was snuggled up against. The female opened her eyes to find her loving boyfriend Nicholas was still asleep. Shine’s eyes narrowed with love and mischief and decided to tease her darling as a way to thank him for making her feel better last night. The vixen slowly moved her body, wrapping her arms, legs, and tail around his muscled body. Her muzzle got a naughty, happy grin on it, just waiting for Nicholas to wake up. The fosky did slowly when feeling something on his body. “Mmmm…?” he asked groggily, not fully awake yet.
Shine let out a happy murmur and licked him in a teasing way. “Morning darling…” she cooed.
Nicholas began to come into reality as his body and mind woke up. “Shine?”
“Mrr mrr…” his girlfriend let out, nuzzling her muzzle against his neck.
Then the fosky came to a wide awakening and saw what was going on. The guy’s arms wrapped around her and Shine let out her foxy purr of happiness at that. “Good morning babe…”
“Mmmmm…” went Shine and found his mouth to kiss him. The vixen then pulled back to come in and playfully bite his nose.
“Honey… what…?” the male asked, not sure what to make of his girl’s behavior.
“Because…” The female rose up enough to look at her guy in the eyes. “You make me feel so much better… Like last night…” Shine found his mouth again, her body beginning to grind against Nicholas.
“Babe…” The fosky replied, managing to work his mouth out from hers. “We need to get up…” Shine pouted in an adorable way. Nicholas rose up from the bed. “Or else-“
“Nope!” the vixen stated and grabbed the back of his shirt and pounced on him. The long-haired male resorted to tickling Shine who shrieked and pulled back. The guy picked her up while standing, spinning the female around in a circle. The vixen’s tail was swishing back and forth, her legs kicking playfully, laughing now. Nicholas came to a stop and they had a long, loving kiss.
The two pulled back breathless and he licked her, causing Shine to murmur with happiness. “Oh… hun…” she cooed.
“I love that you’re feeling more back to your old self,” Nicholas said and set her down on her feet.
“Mmm! Nothing’s going to stand in our way! I’ll make sure of that!”
“Well just don’t get cocky. It’s going to be dangerous at points.”
“Oh hun, you worry too much.”
“Yeah, well when I had that bad feeling before that attack was right to not ignore. Now I’m a little more focused on you babe.”
Shine let out a gentle laugh and hugged her guy. “Ooooh I do love that you’re worried about me darling…’ she cooed. “But I’ll be fine. I promise.”
“Okay then… Now let’s get something to eat.” But the vixen wouldn’t let go of the fosky. “Honey, can you let go of me?”
“What’s the magic words darling?”
“Please?” The vixen giggled and had her tongue out at him in a teasing way.
“I said words, that’s just one.” Nicholas grinned since he knew where this was going.
“I love you?”
“Exactly since I love you to,” Shine replied. They made their way to where the food was while holding paws.

The couple made it and found the elders and others who lived here were gathered in a huge eating hall. This was the main one but there were others in Loft Ridge. Everyone greeted them and the fosky and vixen found a place to eat. Although she tried to flirt with him some more, Nicholas made it clear to not be so obvious. So instead the female’s tail would brush against his with love instead. When the meal was finished it was back to their room to grab their weapons since those would be needed. “Alright, let’s head to where we can fly to the place,” Nicholas told Shine.
They went to the roof of the place they were staying at. The elders were also gathered here as well. “Now then, it’s a straight fly up to there,” the elder Bryony told them. “But then the real work will start once you get there.”
“It might not have changed since I was there to meet him,” Nicholas said. “But who knows what’s happened since Farosh was attacked.”
“We’ve got this!” the vixen stated with a wink to her guy.
“Then go,” Kaneil said. “May his blessing and ours be on both of you…”

The young male and female nodded and called out their wings. They took off with him leading the way up to the structure that floated in the distance. It took a bit but the two reached the entrance way and landed. They looked up and saw the archway that led inside. On either side of this were two pillars carved with dragon symbols. “Here we are, at the Temple Palace of Gales,” Nicholas told his girl. “It doesn’t seem this little bit has changed since I was last here.”
Just then they both felt a presence like what they had felt before when feeling Farosh. “Now there’s a face…” went a voice in their heads. “A face I’ve not seen in some time… Along with another I haven’t looked at in a very, very long time…”
The voice was male and it rumbled like the roaring wind. “It’s him,” Nicholas whispered.
“Now isn’t the time for talking… You two must hurry… I’ve been attacked and so has this place by evil… Please… Free me from it…” The presence then faded.
“That… oh my god that was something else,” Shine whispered. “I remember his voice and feeling his presence as Ish. But to feel it as I am…”
“I know love,” the male with her replied. “Now, let’s go.” The two went inside.
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taoODZVkz4o )
They found themselves in the entrance way. On the right and left was a statue that looked like some kind of armored being with horns, holding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. There were two paths as well on these sides and one ahead that had a pit and a doorway beyond that. The color for this place was as it was for Loft Ridge being dull red, gold, green, and white in color. There was also the stone work in here that looked as ancient as the building was on the outside. “Hmmm nothing here, let’s go!” Shine stated and began to take a step forward.
“Wait!” Nicholas barked at her, causing the vixen to freeze and looking back at her guy.
“What?” she asked innocently with her tongue out but he was frowning.
“Honey, you can’t just charge in wildly. You don’t even know where to go. If anyone is going to lead, I will. I’ve been here before and know how to get around.”
“Awwww, you fun spoiler,” the female replied, mock pouting. “Stop being so worried hun.”
“I’m not dear. But this place is also somewhat of a test.”
“Test?”
“It’s designed to test those that come in here to see if they’re worthy to meet Farosh. Luckily, I know how to get there. And we’ll start with this.” The guy closed his eyes and fired a blast of wind at an orb that was across the pit. This activated it, causing it to go from dark purple to light blue. The pit was closed off by two sections of the floor that came up to form a cover. “Now we can go.”
“We could have just flown over,” Shine said.
“No actually we can’t. Try bring your wings out.” She did and saw that they wouldn’t come out. “This place when you step foot inside is where you can’t call on your wings. It’s part of the test. But you can for your power.”
“Now I see,” the vixen stated. But she then grinned at her love. “But if something did happen, you’d protect me darling…”
“I would, now come on,” Nicholas said with a grin. “Once this is finished and we’re back at Loft Ridge, I’m gonna fuck you so hard you won’t be able to walk.”
“Ooooh darling, you make me blush,” Shine purred, doing just that but smiling. They then went across the pit and to the next room.
It was here and on the bridge that the two saw something up ahead. It looked like some kind of green blob and there were small insect like wings on it. “Wait a minute…” Nicholas said and drew his ax from his back.
“What is it?” the vixen asked.
“That wasn’t here at all when I came here or at any other time people have been here. Which can only mean the one from the Yuga Clan must have summoned it here. They control an army of monsters to. This is just one of them and while a very weak one, I think we might find more in here.”
“No problem, I can take care of it!” Shine stated and drew her staff out with the spikes emerging. She went forward before her guy could react and slammed the head end of her weapon down on it, killing it. The body dissolved away leaving nothing behind.
“Well, good job I guess,” the fosky commented. “But remember, there will be others and a lot stronger than that.” They then continued forward.
They then came to a hallway that was long with a deep green carpet that went ahead. There were broken pillars here and looking to the sides showed that this was open and down below was nothing but air and a long drop to the ground. The two walked down this until it took a right turn. Up ahead was another entrance way. Going through found them inside a different section of the place. Looking showed there were steps that lead up to a small ledge that had nothing there. But to the left was a doorway that had blasts of air blowing down on the path that acted as a barrier. Nicholas pointed out a crystal above and got it with another wind blast that turned off the air that was blocking the way. They then went pass this doorway into a different room. Here they found some skull like enemies that had wings growing out of their heads. These were flapping around until they saw the couple. With a growl they began to fly towards them. “Take ‘em out!” Nicholas said.
Shine’s staff twirled in her paws, smacking those that came at her with no problem while the long-haired male took care of the rest. Doing so allowed a door that had been sealed on the right to open up. Going through found them in a smaller room and the door sealed shut behind them. “Now what?” the vixen asked.
The answer to that was for the statue in here that was like the ones at the entrance way to spring to life. It just hopped about, trying to run into Nicholas and Shine. “This was here before, just strike at it,” he told her and did so quickly three times. The thing hopped back to its original place and was still. The door that the couple had come through and up ahead opened up. Then at the foot of the statue, a chest appeared. Nicholas went over to it and opened it, pulling out a key. “We’ll need this for the locked door ahead,” he said.
The two then went through the door that was above the one gone through previously. Here they emerged in what appeared to be a main section. There were stairs leading up to other rooms and what appeared to be a huge fan like structure in the center of all of this. “Does that really work?” the vixen asked, curious.
“We need to get it running,” Nicholas explained.
He led the way up one of the stairs to a locked door where the key that had been found was used. In the next room, the pathway stopped and the couple could see on the left and right that there was nothing but empty space. A moving platform was boarded and this moved them to a different section. From there it was up a small flight of steps to another one. Riding this platform took them to a third moving one and to a section above the door they had entered from. There was a new one here that they went through and found themselves at the previous room but at a higher level. Across from them was an orb that Nicholas hit with a blast of wind. This caused the fan like structure to activate and start turning sending wind up to a hole in the ceiling. Then by walking along the path they were on, the two made it to it. “Follow me,” the fosky told Shine.
He stepped right to it and was pushed up. The vixen followed. They emerged up on the next level. There were four of the statues seen before here. Suddenly all the doors in here that led to other parts sealed off and they came to life like the last one. Nicholas and Shine beat them down and they returned to their original spots. The doors then became unsealed. “This really isn’t bad; it seems too easy,” the vixen stated. “Maybe because of me?”
“It’s not really a test of strength but patience,” he told her. “Also there’s a lot of walking around it so it tests your resolve and in some cases your combat skills and your ability to solve puzzles. Just wait, it’ll get trickier.”
They chose the door on their right and went through it to a room that was a bit long. The fosky led the way but then had to hold out his arm in front of her body so that the arrow that was shot from a trap in the wall missed them. “Is that…?” she asked.
“Yeah…” he answered. “Just follow my lead…”
The guy led the way pass the arrow shooting traps which shot the projectiles in a timely fashion. It was then up some small stairs to a ledge that had a switch. Stepping on it caused the door at the end of this room to open up. In the next area came a room that had rolling stones that rolled from holes in the wall. The couple had to time their movements to pass these. Then came a switch that had to be stepped on and held while some small set of stairs came out from a wall. The fosky and vixen had to run up these before it retreated back into the wall. “Whew!” Shine stated after they made it. “I see what you mean.”
They then went to the bottom of this room and had to dodge more rolling boulders to get to another switch which caused the door at the bottom to become unsealed. Going through this found them in the main room for this floor. It was then down a grate like path and a small set of stairs. At the foot of these was a switch that when pressed on caused a small key to appear on a ledge out of their reach. Nicholas got it by bringing it to them with wind. Below this was another doorway that the couple went through and found themselves in a room that had another set of small stairs and other enemies seen before that weren’t the statutes. After these were taken out, Nicholas led the way to a door that went to the outside. “Whoa…” Shine said seeing where they were.
The two were at one of the outer area of this place. Despite how high they were up, the view was spectacular. “Drink it in love,” Nicholas said to her with a grin.
There were pillars here, similar to what had been seen at the entrance way to this place holding up the next floor above. A huge railing made of stone was in front and the couple walked to this to look around. They could see Loft Ridge in the distance and the land and mountains surrounding this place. “If it wasn’t for why we’re here and what this was for, I can think of something to do…” Shine purred to her guy, wrapping her arms around him. Her wonderful tits were pressed against him.
Nicholas chuckled and kissed her forehead. “There will be time later babe…” he said softly. “Now then…”
The next step was to find the pull levers here. How these worked was by pulling at them. One was found on their left with two statues that had been seen before on either side of it. “Why don’t you try this time?” the fosky told the vixen.
She did so, looking back at him with her tongue out and a teasing grin due to sticking her lovely ass out while doing so. When it was pulled fully out a big chest rose up from the floor nearby but the statues began to move about. The female and male took care of them and returned to their regular spot. Once that was finished, the two walked over to the big chest and Nicholas opened it. Inside the key was richly decorated and green in color. “Here’s what we’ll need to get to where Farosh is,” Nicholas said after taking it.
“What happens to all the keys when they’ve been used?” Shine asked.
“They get taken back by a spell. This is a test for others after all.”
Now it was to the door that was locked on the right of the chest. The small key Nicholas had picked up earlier was used and it was a spiraling staircase up to a higher level on the outside. Here another lever was pulled to allow a platform to lower to where they were. Riding it up got them to the next floor (Music stops). (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG4QL0_PCBg ) They arrived in a place that was square. But it was here that a humanoid figure was waiting. It was wearing some kind of cloak and the Yuga Clan symbol was on it. It had some kind of twisted bird’s beak and a spear in both of its hands. It looked at the two and let out a shriek from its mouth. “Get ready!” Nicholas snarled, drawing his weapon as did Shine.
The enemy jumped up on legs that were hidden under the cloak. The being came in fast with the spear being twirled about. It went after Nicholas who deflected the attack. He was sent back a few steps. The monster then rounded off with a kick before coming in again. Shine was ready and threw a blast of light energy at the creature that got it in the eyes. Nicholas came in and with a quick stab and slash, the thing fell. It to melted away into nothing. The way forward then became unsealed. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65c5y7Khm_w ) “That was not here as well when I came here,” Nicholas growled.
“Now I see what you meant earlier by that clan having other monsters,” Shine said. “That one was stronger and deadlier.”
“It’s weird. The statues are definitely part of the test here. What I don’t know is why there aren’t as many monsters here.”
“Because most were wiped out when I was attacked…” went the voice of Farosh. The couple felt his presence again. “Most of them were used to distract or attack me… but be wary… For there are more ahead…” His presence then vanished.
“Well then…” Nicholas said. The two went through the next doorway.
In the next room came a series of switches that had to be pressed in order to turn on fans to blow them across sections in order to reach the other side where the door was. They then emerged into the main room of the third level and they saw what Farosh meant. This time beside the skull like enemies, there were others that had bat like wings but their bodies were insect like. There were all defeated quickly and were more a nuisance than a problem. Then going around and up some small stairs led to a switch that when stepped on caused some fans that were blowing wind to turn off. These had been blocking the path ahead. Shine and Nicholas doubled back and went on it to a different door. It was here that the next big fan that would take them up to the fourth floor was found. They had to fight through some monsters to reach the switch to turn it on but these were no problem. The couple soon made it and were blown up. “How much further now?” Shine asked.
Nicholas chuckled. “You fought in the tournament and yet you can’t do one little place like this?” he asked with a smirk.
Before the vixen could say anything else, more enemies came out and they had to take care of them. Then it was up some small flight of stairs to the next room where a bunch of the flying enemies seen throughout the place attacked. Beating them caused the doorway up ahead to open up. They went through it and found themselves at a place that appeared to be the main room for this floor. But there was a big locked door at the end of it that had wind and dragon designs on it. Nicholas quickly fired at an orb in a corner that caused the stairs that would lead up to it to rise up. It was then a quick jump down and up towards it (Music ends). (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG4QL0_PCBg ) But then something descended from above. It was a humanoid like figure. But it was clad in armor from head to toe. The color was dull yellow and the enemy carried a massive ball and chain weapon that it began to spin around its head. The ball end was launched towards the couple. Nicholas and Shine rolled out of the way and she and him fired blasts of elemental energy at the enemy to stun him. The fosky ran up to him and tried to trip the enemy but this thing was too heavy. So the fosky struck at the straps of the armor which caused it to fall off the body. The thing underneath seem to have some kind of leather armor that hid the true form. It was no match as while now faster, it could be hit and affected by blasts of elements much more easily. It wasn’t long before this thing was beaten (Music ends)
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65c5y7Khm_w )
“That takes care of that,” Nicholas said and looked to the big door. “Now all that’s left is what lies beyond that.
“I’m ready!” Shine stated and smiled at her guy. The two felt Farosh’s presence again.
“Well done… both of you…” he said. “But now comes the hardest part… facing the one who has invaded this place… take caution as he’ll be strong…” The presence then vanished.
“I don’t know if I’m going to like whoever it is,” Shine said with a look of disgust.
“I’m with you there love,” Nicholas agreed. “But we’ve got no choice.”
“So it’s time then?”
“Yeah… just like as that person says in those movies…” The fosky paused for a moment. “Yippie kai yay motherfucker.” The guy inserted the big key into the lock and turned it. The door opened in two halves inward. Beyond that was a small pathway that had a dark rich colored green carpet on the floor. It led up to some stairs that went up to an altar. There in the middle of it was a huge whirlwind of wind. Nicholas and Shine nodded at the other before stepping into it and being swept up to the final floor. What they would find would be quiet the surprise to say the least.

The thing hopped back to its original place and was still. The door that the couple had come through and up ahead opened up. Then at the foot of the statue, a chest appeared. Nicholas went over to it and opened it, pulling out a key. “We’ll need this for the locked door ahead,” he said.
The two then went through the door that was above the one gone through previously. Here they emerged in what appeared to be a main section. There were stairs leading up to other rooms and what appeared to be a huge fan like structure in the center of all of this. “Does that really work?” the vixen asked, curious.
“We need to get it running,” Nicholas explained.
He led the way up one of the stairs to a locked door where the key that had been found was used. In the next room, the pathway stopped and the couple could see on the left and right that there was nothing but empty space. A moving platform was boarded and this moved them to a different section. From there it was up a small flight of steps to another one. Riding this platform took them to a third moving one and to a section above the door they had entered from. There was a new one here that they went through and found themselves at the previous room but at a higher level. Across from them was an orb that Nicholas hit with a blast of wind. This caused the fan like structure to activate and start turning sending wind up to a hole in the ceiling. Then by walking along the path they were on, the two made it to it. “Follow me,” the fosky told Shine.
He stepped right to it and was pushed up. The vixen followed. They emerged up on the next level. There were four of the statues seen before here. Suddenly all the doors in here that led to other parts sealed off and they came to life like the last one. Nicholas and Shine beat them down and they returned to their original spots. The doors then became unsealed. “This really isn’t bad; it seems too easy,” the vixen stated. “Maybe because of me?”
“It’s not really a test of strength but patience,” he told her. “Also there’s a lot of walking around it so it tests your resolve and in some cases your combat skills and your ability to solve puzzles. Just wait, it’ll get trickier.”
They chose the door on their right and went through it to a room that was a bit long. The fosky led the way but then had to hold out his arm in front of her body so that the arrow that was shot from a trap in the wall missed them. “Is that…?” she asked.
“Yeah…” he answered. “Just follow my lead…”
The guy led the way pass the arrow shooting traps which shot the projectiles in a timely fashion. It was then up some small stairs to a ledge that had a switch. Stepping on it caused the door at the end of this room to open up. In the next area came a room that had rolling stones that rolled from holes in the wall. The couple had to time their movements to pass these. Then came a switch that had to be stepped on and held while some small set of stairs came out from a wall. The fosky and vixen had to run up these before it retreated back into the wall. “Whew!” Shine stated after they made it. “I see what you mean.”
They then went to the bottom of this room and had to dodge more rolling boulders to get to another switch which caused the door at the bottom to become unsealed. Going through this found them in the main room for this floor. It was then down a grate like path and a small set of stairs. At the foot of these was a switch that when pressed on caused a small key to appear on a ledge out of their reach. Nicholas got it by bringing it to them with wind. Below this was another doorway that the couple went through and found themselves in a room that had another set of small stairs and other enemies seen before that weren’t the statutes. After these were taken out, Nicholas led the way to a door that went to the outside. “Whoa…” Shine said seeing where they were.
The two were at one of the outer area of this place. Despite how high they were up, the view was spectacular. “Drink it in love,” Nicholas said to her with a grin.
There were pillars here, similar to what had been seen at the entrance way to this place holding up the next floor above. A huge railing made of stone was in front and the couple walked to this to look around. They could see Loft Ridge in the distance and the land and mountains surrounding this place. “If it wasn’t for why we’re here and what this was for, I can think of something to do…” Shine purred to her guy, wrapping her arms around him. Her wonderful tits were pressed against him.
Nicholas chuckled and kissed her forehead. “There will be time later babe…” he said softly. “Now then…”
The next step was to find the pull levers here. How these worked was by pulling at them. One was found on their left with two statues that had been seen before on either side of it. “Why don’t you try this time?” the fosky told the vixen.
She did so, looking back at him with her tongue out and a teasing grin due to sticking her lovely ass out while doing so. When it was pulled fully out a big chest rose up from the floor nearby but the statues began to move about. The female and male took care of them and returned to their regular spot. Once that was finished, the two walked over to the big chest and Nicholas opened it. Inside the key was richly decorated and green in color. “Here’s what we’ll need to get to where Farosh is,” Nicholas said after taking it.
“What happens to all the keys when they’ve been used?” Shine asked.
“They get taken back by a spell. This is a test for others after all.”
Now it was to the door that was locked on the right of the chest. The small key Nicholas had picked up earlier was used and it was a spiraling staircase up to a higher level on the outside. Here another lever was pulled to allow a platform to lower to where they were. Riding it up got them to the next floor (Music stops). (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG4QL0_PCBg ) They arrived in a place that was square. But it was here that a humanoid figure was waiting. It was wearing some kind of cloak and the Yuga Clan symbol was on it. It had some kind of twisted bird’s beak and a spear in both of its hands. It looked at the two and let out a shriek from its mouth. “Get ready!” Nicholas snarled, drawing his weapon as did Shine.
The enemy jumped up on legs that were hidden under the cloak. The being came in fast with the spear being twirled about. It went after Nicholas who deflected the attack. He was sent back a few steps. The monster then rounded off with a kick before coming in again. Shine was ready and threw a blast of light energy at the creature that got it in the eyes. Nicholas came in and with a quick stab and slash, the thing fell. It to melted away into nothing. The way forward then became unsealed. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65c5y7Khm_w ) “That was not here as well when I came here,” Nicholas growled.
“Now I see what you meant earlier by that clan having other monsters,” Shine said. “That one was stronger and deadlier.”
“It’s weird. The statues are definitely part of the test here. What I don’t know is why there aren’t as many monsters here.”
“Because most were wiped out when I was attacked…” went the voice of Farosh. The couple felt his presence again. “Most of them were used to distract or attack me… but be wary… For there are more ahead…” His presence then vanished.
“Well then…” Nicholas said. The two went through the next doorway.
In the next room came a series of switches that had to be pressed in order to turn on fans to blow them across sections in order to reach the other side where the door was. They then emerged into the main room of the third level and they saw what Farosh meant. This time beside the skull like enemies, there were others that had bat like wings but their bodies were insect like. There were all defeated quickly and were more a nuisance than a problem. Then going around and up some small stairs led to a switch that when stepped on caused some fans that were blowing wind to turn off. These had been blocking the path ahead. Shine and Nicholas doubled back and went on it to a different door. It was here that the next big fan that would take them up to the fourth floor was found. They had to fight through some monsters to reach the switch to turn it on but these were no problem. The couple soon made it and were blown up. “How much further now?” Shine asked.
Nicholas chuckled. “You fought in the tournament and yet you can’t do one little place like this?” he asked with a smirk.
Before the vixen could say anything else, more enemies came out and they had to take care of them. Then it was up some small flight of stairs to the next room where a bunch of the flying enemies seen throughout the place attacked. Beating them caused the doorway up ahead to open up. They went through it and found themselves at a place that appeared to be the main room for this floor. But there was a big locked door at the end of it that had wind and dragon designs on it. Nicholas quickly fired at an orb in a corner that caused the stairs that would lead up to it to rise up. It was then a quick jump down and up towards it (Music ends). (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG4QL0_PCBg ) But then something descended from above. It was a humanoid like figure. But it was clad in armor from head to toe. The color was dull yellow and the enemy carried a massive ball and chain weapon that it began to spin around its head. The ball end was launched towards the couple. Nicholas and Shine rolled out of the way and she and him fired blasts of elemental energy at the enemy to stun him. The fosky ran up to him and tried to trip the enemy but this thing was too heavy. So the fosky struck at the straps of the armor which caused it to fall off the body. The thing underneath seem to have some kind of leather armor that hid the true form. It was no match as while now faster, it could be hit and affected by blasts of elements much more easily. It wasn’t long before this thing was beaten (Music ends)

“That takes care of that,” Nicholas said and looked to the big door. “Now all that’s left is what lies beyond that.
“I’m ready!” Shine stated and smiled at her guy. The two felt Farosh’s presence again.
“Well done… both of you…” he said. “But now comes the hardest part… facing the one who has invaded this place… take caution as he’ll be strong…” The presence then vanished.
“I don’t know if I’m going to like whoever it is,” Shine said with a look of disgust.
“I’m with you there love,” Nicholas agreed. “But we’ve got no choice.”
“So it’s time then?”
“Yeah… just like as that person says in those movies…” The fosky paused for a moment. “Yippie kai yay motherfucker.” The guy inserted the big key into the lock and turned it. The door opened in two halves inward. Beyond that was a small pathway that had a dark rich colored green carpet on the floor. It led up to some stairs that went up to an altar. There in the middle of it was a huge whirlwind of wind. Nicholas and Shine nodded at the other before stepping into it and being swept up to the final floor. What they would find would be quiet the surprise to say the least.
