Meanwhile on Tarzac’s ship hate still overwhelmed the souls’ and hearts’ of all beings on the ship. Tarzac had to be calmed down by the dark one because Tarzac was frantic about going off of course. Garranzana de loco traveled around the entire world for centuries. Even though their ship had gotten off course because of the storm the dark one explained to the crew on the ship that the ship would land on the Western Hemisphere. The ship had floated to the South Western Hemisphere, which was the same continent on Yec but a different country. The ship landed on the shore of Kreestonia the Taurus country. Tarzac and his crew as they landed on the shore of Kreestonia on the deck of Tarzac’s warship looked upon Brita and his House coming towards the ship.
The warship had just docked onto the shores of Kreestonia. Alongside of Tarzac to greet the House of Brita was Queen Rachael. It would be told in the future legends that Rachael never departed Tarzac’s side she was his shield and lover as far as Sagittarius and humans can go sexually these two would go that far. In Gemini legends Rachael would be known as the demon Queen or Tarzac’s henchman. Queen Rachael once healthy olive complexion de-flourished into a dry pale like color. Rachael eyes were black. This transformation occurred when Tarzac put a spell on her so that she would fight the Aries in Appolem. Since then Rachael responded only to Tarzac. Rachael and Tarzac side by side walking admired the land of Kreestonia it thrived in high stalks of grass that was great for the Taurus to graze in its plentiful ness. The two parties met each other ten feet from Tarzac’s warship: The two parties consisting of the house of Brita and Tarzac, Queen Rachael, VoShow, and Aquarius soldiers. The Taurus laid eyes on the massive warship that flabbergasted them. The warship was a mile long and three miles wide made of wood from the outskirts of Yec from a small forest.
Tarzac and his party approached the House of Brita. Tarzac felt uncomfortable being around the Taurus. This was the first time Tarzac had encountered Taurus. He did not know how to act around them or what to expect from them. “Hello is your name Tarzac?” Brita Asked. “Yes how do you know my name?” Tarzac asked. “Arbulea the celestial entity from the Forbidden Land told us of your coming. I am Brita and this is a few of my House who are the House of Brita.” Tarzac thought where did he hear the name Arbulea from…He then remembered Spellbinder spoke of her. Spellbinder’s last wish of Tarzac was that he bring Arbulea Spellbinder’s amulet that was told to Tarzac that is her heart. Remembering this he quickly responded becoming excited. “Arbulea! Yes you must take me to this entity!” “Of Course…First one thing we must ask you for your help. The House of Brita has been hiding in Arbulea’s land, which is called the Forbidden Land. She let us have refugee in the land from my brother Hodu Khan a tyrant that can control beings by a stare in his eyes. Arbulea told us that you were a great warrior and could help us…Could you help us defeat by brother Hodu Khan?” Brita said. Tarzac had no interest in helping Brita, but with the ownership of the Aries ground opal he obtained new power, which was the ability to sense certain things. Tarzac sensed the essence of an opal in a nearby country and a strong essence in Caskatta. Tarzac wondered if Hodu Khan had and opal if so Hodu Khan would be a great threat towards Tarzac and would have to be killed and his opal would be Tarzac’s. Tarzac returned to his ship and discussed the matter with the dark one “I feel the ground opal is nearby dark one. They say this Hodu Khan can control beings with a gaze, and he is on his way to take over the Zodiac World.” Tarzac said. “That is attributes of the ground opal.” Dark one spoke. “He must be stopped, and we must take his opal.” Tarzac replied. “Yes, Let us help this Brita Khan, so that we can track down his brother Hodu Khan and take what belongs to me.” Garranzana de loco commanded. Tarzac came off the boat after talking to Garranzana de loco, and agreed to help the House of Brita.
The House of Brita allowed the Peitra and the rest of Tarzac’s crewmembers to come along to the Forbidden Land. Tarzac, Queen Rachael, the dark one, Animosity, Mahogany, Marius, and fifteen other Peitra, ten Sagittarius VoShow, and thirteen Aquarius alongside the House of Brita traveled to the Forbidden Land. As they all reached the entrance of the Forbidden Land a voice spoke… “You are not welcomed here! All of you reek of impurity even you Tarzac Only Tarzac and the House of Brita are welcomed here.” An immense thick fog guarded the Forbidden land. Tarzac had gotten the impression in his mind that Arbulea is a being of some kind never would he imagine the true form he would soon see of the entity Arbulea. The House of Brita and Tarzac entered the Forbidden Land…Arbulea stretched through the land Arbulea consisted of clouds and stars. Tarzac marveled at this entity’s appearance, as he was mesmerized never could he imagine something like this. In the meantime as Tarzac’s crew waited outside of the Forbidden Land . Garranzana de loco noticed something among the Peitra, something peculiar. He asked the General Kings Mahogany and Animosity. “Mahogany what is the tension among the young Peitra and the old?” “Not…nothing dark one why do ask such things.” Mahogany answered. He was frightened of Garranzana de loco and his presence sometimes made his heart race in panic “I know something is going on between the Peitra.” Garranzana de loco talked. “I can handle it. There is nothing to worry about.” Animosity answered. He knew his friend Mahogany was too scared to answer the dark one so Animosity answered for him. He too was frightened of the dark one but he never showed it towards Garranzana de loco. Garranzana de loco did not like Animosity very much because he did not show fear towards him, but the dark one admired Animosity’s skills as a warrior. Animosity had one arm but was still a great warrior.
Garranzana de loco grabbed Animosity’s arm and pulled Animosity towards him so he could see Animosity’s fear in his eyes. “Have it under control. If you do not handle whatever is going on I will kill the both of you if you ruin the prophecy. There will be no La Luc to save the both of you this time.” Garranzana de loco demanded. “It will not result to that dark one and we have it under control.” Mahogany stated. Mahogany used the term dark one because that name of Garranzana de loco gave him pleasure, as a Kuman being “dark” is a compliment and a respectful title. Garranzana de loco let Animosity go from his grip and at that moment Animosity wished he knew the secret or had the power to destroy a Kuman. In the Forbidden Land the House of Brita left Tarzac to talk to Arbulea. “Greetings King Tarzac of Yec; Sagittarius from the tribe Ottes. I believe you have something for me. “ Spoke the cloud entity Arbulea. “Yes Spellbinder’s amulet!” Tarzac exclaimed. “Yes La Luc’s amulet- Sadness I feel in her people’s heart for her death. With this amulet she may be resurrected.” Arbulea stated. “Yes the Peitra would be happy to see her resurrection as I would and the dark one.” Tarzac responded. “The dark one cares nothing for her.” Arbulea said brashly. “He is her father.” Tarzac spoke out. “Naïve you are about that Kuman. She is no longer in his plans she served her purpose according to him nothing matters to him but the …At last I will not get into lower beings affairs so I will speak no more. Hand me the amulet and go about your affairs. One piece of advice for you lead the Peitra like La Luc and they would be your loyal followers.” Arbulea said. Tarzac handed Arbulea the amulet and soon after he looked for Brita Khan in the Forbidden Land. The Forbidden Land was just not forbidden to enter but forbidden to talk of its appearance and Arbulea’s. Tarzac found Brita and they discussed plans on attacking Hodu Khan.
They would be a very dangerous pair of villains if they were unsupervised and not under the control of the dark one. They surpass the evil of the Kumans in Galloc Muh’s time. They are the Black Dogs of Kuman Bacurkus and Glumador. Not until the Virgo/Libra War would any being know where these beasts dwell until their master summons them. {Notes from Kai} In the meantime as Tarzac made military plans with Brita we the Brave Ones passed through the muddy uncivilized land of Che’ where Grandi Phi dwell. “It is been along time since we have traveled. I wonder how many months it’s been since we’ve seen Sod.” Fairmount the Matriarch said to one of the Forgers Kai as we walked through Che’. “It has been months Matriarch. You know what…I really don’t think were ready to face this Hodu Khan and his army.” Kai stated. Tahquan walked in between of Kai and Fairmount and expressed … “This is true Kai, your training was limited, but we have Polyganda on our side …soon…maybe in this land Che you might have to use what I taught all of you. There are dangerous creatures in Che’.” As our guild walked through Che’ we saw the population of Che being the Grandi Phi. The Grandi Phi did not know what to make of the twenty-seven tourists that traveled through their land. The Grandi Phi was no threat they just watched the tourist travel past their land. Tahquan knew the Grandi Phi could be dangerous so he became suspicious of the Grandi Phi’s nonviolent action towards them. The Grandi Phi was not the only creature that observed us. The Kebosha Mountain is the border of Che’ it separated Che’ from Estmar.
The Kebosha Mountain rose high to the sky almost blocking the sun from Che’. Che’ s sky is always dark. It rained constantly in Che’ so dark rain clouds hovered over the sky constantly. Che’ is Garranzana de loco’s resident land where he dwelt the most. ‘When the sun shined the shadow was born. When the first shadow was born a Kuman appeared. Where there are shadows there are Kumans. Where there is darkness there are Kumans.’ –Book of Za Written by Oauchi Kaibaiche Garranzana de loco made the Grandi Phi his slaves as he was gone to attend to his business with the prophecy. He left in charge to oversee Che’ and his slaves Bacurkus and Glumador the Two Black Dogs of Kuman. The two black dogs stood watching us strangers on the Kebosha Mountain. “This is strange do you see what I see Bacurkus.” Glumador Stated. “Yes, Strange indeed. I have not seen a pure Ottes Sagittarius in centuries.” Bacurkus said amazed at seeing Tahquan. “And who are those other Zodiac with the pure Ottes?” Glumador questioned. “They look suspicious…if the master was here he would through his weight around.” Bacurkus added. “And possibly kill them for trespassing.” Glumador said. “Let us talk with these Zodiac trespassers” Bacurkus stated. ”Indeed.” Confirmed Glumador Bacurkus and Glumador teleported themselves off of the Kebosha Mountain and in front of Tahquan and the guild. We were in great fear. The two black dogs’ eyes blazed of fire where smoke fluttered from their eyes. The two dogs furious teeth disposed thick droll as they growled. Their growl sounded like thunder. Tahquan knew about Kumans but never encountered one. He too was fearful of them. Tahquan held the Scepter of Kanis up in the air and pointed it towards the Two Black Dogs of Kuman. “Pure Ottes why do you trespass in land of the dark one?” Questioned the two dogs. “We our just traveling by…there are no other routes available to where were going.” Answered Tahquan. “We want a fair for your trespassing!” Glumador exclaimed. “What is that?” Questioned Tahquan “Hand us over one of those women Zodiacs.” Glumador Stated.
“Or even better make slaves out of them…Zodiacs give me indigestion.” Bacurkus Replied. Then Bacurkus walked over to Charity, one of the Virgo and started to sniff her. Repulsed, Charity pulled out her sword. Bacurkus was then surprised as well as furious. He leaped up from the ground where he stood and attempted to bite her jugular vein.
Tahquan observing this waived his scepter. Tahquan and his party then disappeared and were transported to Estmar, the land of the dead. “The FaSha and Polyganda are with us.” Charity said still shocked over the incident that just occurred. The entire group were in shock wondering how they just disappeared from Che’ and were instantly transported to Estmar. “What is going on and who were those black hounds in Che’?
” Delzia another Virgo Brave One inquired. “They were Kumans who are non-Zodiacs that are very evil and powerful.” Tahquan stated. “Good thing that you used your magic to get us out of that land Tahquan” Stated Tarcop “It was not I. I did not use my magic it must have been Polyganda or the FaSha.” Replied Tahquan. “What eerie land is this Tahquan?” Capleas questioned. “This is Estmar the land of the dead where restless souls dwell.” Tahquan answered. Estmar like Che’ is almost barren of sunlight. Estmar is acres of forest.
Trees covered the sun in these woods. We were not in violation of Estmar’s laws so the caretaker Arboreal the Enchantress did not emerge from the ground. As our party eerie of the woods we quickly departed from Estmar. After Estmar we all reached Bismet which took us one day to pass. There was open land where neither beast nor being dwelt undiscovered country between Bismet and lands after Kreestonia. It would soon be called Midland. This unsettled land is where the Battle for the Blood Coral would begin.
Hodu Khan was not an average bull due to his possession of the opal called the Blood Coral. He could if he had the knowledge to do great things with the Blood Coral for example alter his body into different sizes of weight and height mass. Not knowing how to alter his image the Blood Coral transformed him into a massive juggernaut bull and his skin ten times tougher than a normal bull as well as his height and weight mass. Hodu Khan’s military slaves consisted of two hundred. Hodu Khan had collected some Capricorn herds as slaves on his way to Sod in unnamed grasslands. Hodu Khan’s mindless warriors marched in great formation. Five soldiers lined up twenty horizontal rows consecutively.
The marching of the Taurus soldiers could be heard miles away. The Taurus came upon Midland a few hours after Tahquan and the Brave Ones. The guild witnessed the massive and numerous Taurus army and panic spread through us all. We the Virgo had no plan for a formation the only advantage we had was that Hodu Khan did not know of our coming or who we were. The Virgo looked onto Tahquan for guidance. The truth of the matter was Tahquan had no clue on what to. Tahquan was a strategic general. Tahquan knew he had to guide them and he had to take on the responsibility. Meantime on Tarzac’s ship.
Tarzac Account II The House of Brita has joined our crew on the ship. The House of Brita staying on board takes up a lot of space and the ships we built were not made to hold such weight as the Taurus has. Brita and I had decided to travel up the shore of Kreestonia because sailing would be quicker to catch up with Hodu Khan’s advancing army that marched on land. I never had a brother but if I did I would not have such hate and malice for my brother as Brita to his brother Hodu Khan. Brita hates his brother so much that he renounced his family name Khan. He told me that if his brother Hodu is killed. Brita will “Plata um Reca” meaning in Taurus heritage to rejoice, celebrate, and rebirth oneself. I was unfamiliar on what Brita meant by rebirth oneself it meant that he would take on a new last name that meant some religious implication in Taurus culture.
He said his name what be Brita Oumkabtor only if Hodu Khan was defeated and killed that is the culture it is hard for me to understand. At first I cared nothing about the plight of Brita and his exiled House. With Brita to accompany his crew and I to the Forbidden Land were Wzebol and Glay who were originally from the House of Shilord.
On their journey to the Forbidden Land Wzebol and Glay told my crewmembers and I of their plight. House of Shilord was the original chief House of Caskatta for fifty years for fifty years the Shilords dynasty ruled the land. The emperor was Bog Shilord. Prince Dawl Shilord is the son and heir to Bog Shilord. Princess Ralboj is the daughter of Emperor Bog Shilord. Glay and Wzebol Shilord are brothers and the nephews of Emperor Bog. When Hodu Khan conquered Caskatta he took Princess Ralboj as his wife. They could have ran away but Emperor Bog and Prince Dawl stayed in Shilord grassland to support the House of Shilord, but their price was to become mindless servants of Hodu Khan. {At this time tyrants overwhelmed agony in the hearts of beings for a greedy taste of power. notes from Kai}
Wzebol and Glay were sent by their Uncle Bog from Caskatta to Kreestonia to aid Brita in forces before Hodu Khan turned Bog and Dawl into mindless slaves . I care somewhat now…well I feel sympathetic for Wzebal and Glay because their journey is to liberate their family the House of Shilords. I am not on a journey to liberate. My objective is to obtain the opal. Brita is just a colleague and no friend of mine. He needs me more than I need him. It is not that I think Brita is a bad creature, but I think of him to be spineless. Spineless because Brita hid in the Forbidden Land with a nice amount of potential warriors that did not have to hide, but could have fought Hodu Khan. I just want this journey to end so I can go to Yec relax from wars and see my son.
–Tarzac The Taurus army of Hodu Khan marched with every step that one heard. The ground rumbled. Hodu Khan led his servant army in confidence. Hodu Khan thought no one could stop him. He felt god-like. Hodu Khan and servant army marched and glazed their eyes on our guild. “Master Khan what are those beings standing there?” Questioned General Podam Nuv the general of the servant army. Podam pointed to us with a head gesture. “ Podam …these creatures are not to my knowledge. Deliver the message that they block our way.” Hodu Khan ordered. “As you wish Master Hodu Khan.” Podam Nuv replied. Podam Nuv then walked thirty feet of the grassland of Midland. In close distance about twenty feet away Podam Nuv yelled out to us. “Creatures unknown to me. I am General Podam Nuv. General of the Hodu Khan the Excellent. Hodu Khan the Conqueror. I represent the House of Nuvs as well as the chief House of Khan. You all block the way of my Lord and his army move out of the way and prepare to be his servants.”
Matriarch Fairmount responded to Podam Nuv “We are Virgo and this is Tahquan a Sagittarius. The Virgo that you see here are from the land of Sod the land your master plans to conquer. The twenty Virgo you see here are chosen by FaSha the messenger of Polyganda to stop you at this midland of countries.
The twenty Virgo you see here come to represent Sod to stop your master and his army. If he would like to negotiate that would be fine but if he come to fight then so be it.” Stunned by Matriarch’s respond of defilement Podam responded… “You dare disobey Hodu Khan” General Podam Nuv turned around and trotted quickly to his master to give him the information. Podam returned to his master scared of what Hodu’s reaction might be. “Master Khan. Those beings are Virgo from the land of Sod. They refused to move out of your greatness’ way. They threatened you Master Khan and they all said that they will fight you because you have come to conquer Sod.”
“Those fools do not know the power of Me! Hodu Khan!” Then Hodu Khan laughed. “No they do not know your power Master Khan.”
Podam Nuv said to his master. Fear was no longer in the hearts of the Virgo. The Virgo heard Hodu Khan laughing which angered us. Hodu Khan thought the Virgo to be weak. River a Virgo Brave One ran off alone with a bronze sword in her hand to face the Taurus. Phoenea who asexual produced
River ran after the teenager to stop her.
Two Taurus from the third row in Hodu Khan’s servant army formation got out of formation to charge at River. Witnessing the two Taurus coming towards her, River became stunned. River tried to strike her sword at one of the two Taurus but she was to slow. One Taurus charged her colliding into her shoulder. The force was so hard it knocked River to the ground. The second Taurus picked River up with his horns tossing her in the air. She then fell on her wounded shoulder and soon after the other Taurus soldier trampled over her chest and leaving River badly injured. The two Taurus soldiers then trotted back to their rank. Phoenea came late to save her daughter from being attacked. Phoenea held River in her arms as she dragged her daughter back where Tahquan and the Brave Ones stood. Hodu Khan screamed out in a rage… “So do you wage battle on Hodu Khan?”
Still dragging River back to Tahquan and the Brave One. Pheonea yelled out in angry. “Yes we do!” Infuriated by this, Hodu Khan ordered his subordinates to charge at the Brave Ones and Tahquan. Phoenea reacted quickly to this event. Phoenea and River were closer to the Taurus army than the others who were numerous feet away. Phoenea knew River could not survive another charge from the Taurus. Phoenea covered River with her own body like a blanket to protect River.
The Taurus General Podam Nuv personally stampeded towards Phoena and River. Podam ran over River and Phoenea. Podam back hooves had gotten stuck onto a piece of Pheonea’s clothing. Podam Nuv dragged Phoenea a few minutes along the ground. Phoenea cried out for mercy. Phoenea’s clothing was finally released from Podam’s hooves. Phoenea injured laid on the ground motionless. Podam then stomped his front hooves onto Phoenea’s head crushing her skull. Tahquan and the Brave Ones did not witness this scene of malice because hundreds of Taurus charged at them. Tahquan had to think of something fast before the Taurus reached them. Tahquan waved the Kanis scepter and a flash of light came upon Hodu Khan and his servant army blinding them for a few minutes. This gave Tahquan and the Brave Ones time to think of a plan. Tahquan used his magic to momentarily alter he and the Brave Ones invisible. Hodu Khan and his servant army became flabbergasted as well as terrified by the disappearance of the opposing army. The Taurus stopped the assault. They looked around wondering where they all went. Tahquan and the Brave One could see each other but the opposing army could not. Tahquan and the Brave Ones as they were invisible slaughtered as many Taurus as they could until the spell wore off.
{Tales of the Taurus} His army protected Hodu Khan because unseen adversaries were killing Hodu Khan’s servant army crowded around him to shield him as his servant army. As Khan’s servant army shielded their master he yelled out… “Power is mine. With this Power, the world will be mine, so, that all may worship Khan. I am beyond the point of no return now there is no discretion. Tell the tales of me that I might be feared, remembered, and imitated in coming years.”
The Book of Khan verse 20 Unknown to him the power of the Blood Coral enabled Hodu Khan to invoke a minor earthquake. This minor earthquake disabled our invisibility. By that time Tahquan and we killed twenty of Khan’s servant army. The earthquake swallowed five of the Virgo Forgers in the ground killing them. Soon after, the Tahquan and the Brave Ones and Hodu Khan and his servant army faced off in great battle. The Sagittarius Voshow, Aquarius soldiers, Peitra soldiers, the House of Brita led by the dark one and Tarzac came upon the battle of Midland and the face off came to a halt.
King Tarzac and his small army of fifteen Sagittarius, thirteen Aquarius, thirteen Aquarius, and the House of Brita that was made of thirty including eighteen Peitra and the dark one were seen by Hodu Khan and his army besides us. During the face off, the our number decreased to fifteen from twenty. Hodu Khan’s army was still vast in multitude although his army was decreasing rapidly by our offense of the battle. Meantime Hodu Khan’s army, Tahquan, and the guild both wondered of Tarzac’s army intentions of being in Midland.
Tarzac’s army strolled nonchalant towards the standstill battle. The dark one frightened both armies. The dark one had altered into his dragon snake form. Hodu Khan seen his brother Brita with the strangers and was puzzled because Hodu was not sure it was his brother. Hodu spoke. “Brother is that you?” “I am no brother of a tyrant.” Brita angrily replied. “Have you and your rebel house come to join me?” Hodu asked in an arrogant manner. “No. We have come to stop you.” Brita stated gesturing his head to point to Tarzac and his army to Hodu that Tarzac was on Brita’s side. “Always the jealous brother. Its because I was chosen chief house of Khan…eh Brita. And who are your beastly companions?” Interrogated Hodu Khan. “I am King Tarzac from the city Yec. We have come to assist your brother Brita.”
“I am Queen Rachael of the Aquarius. I also have come to assist your brother Brita with General Animosity and Mahogany who are leaders of the Peidra race.” All parties were very close to each other. The Brave Ones and Tahquan listened to Tarzac, Brita, and Rachael’s conversation between Hodu and Tahquan had interrupted the conversation. “I am Tahquan from the Ottes Clan and these are my companions Virgo from Sod. We have come to stop Hodu Khan as well.” “I am no brother of a tyrant.” Brita angrily replied. “Have you and your rebel house come to join me?” Hodu asked in an arrogant manner. “No. We have come to stop you.” Brita stated gesturing his head to point to Tarzac and his army to Hodu that Tarzac was on Brita’s side. “Always the jealous brother. Its because I was chosen chief house of Khan…eh Brita. And who are your beastly companions?” Interrogated Hodu Khan. “I am King Tarzac from the city Yec. We have come to assist your brother Brita.” “I am Queen Rachael of the Aquarius. I also have come to assist your brother Brita with General Animosity and Mahogany who are leaders of the Peidra race.” All parties were very close to each other. The Brave Ones and Tahquan listened to Tarzac, Brita, and Rachael’s conversation between Hodu and Tahquan had interrupted the conversation. “I am Tahquan from the Ottes Clan and these are my companions Capricorn and Virgo from Sod.
We have come to stop Hodu Khan from invading Sod.” Tarzac reminisced once he visited Sod. Tarzac was also curious about the ‘Dwarf’ Sagittarius because he had never seen such a being before. “A common interest …no question on what we should do.” Stated Marius. Animosity hissed repulsed at the sound of the Peidra conspirator. Marius looked at the angry Animosity and became silent. Marius did not want any trouble at this time. “Indeed Marius…join forces with these beasts from Sod.” Queen Rachael replied. Hodu Khan’s heart pounded with fear because the thought of defeat and death now crossed his mind. Garranzana de loco smelled Hodu’s fear and smiled. Hodu said… “No one can defeat the mighty Hodu Khan who is chief house of two countries. Brother do you wage battle upon me along with your companions?” “Yes. The battle challenge is declared by the House of Brita.” Brita spoke. The battle challenge is Taurus culture one had to declare battle before one fights it was honorable. Brita explained this to Tarzac and the others that accompanied him. “We the Sagittarius and the Peidra declare battle.” Tarzac said.
Tarzac spoke for the Peidra because they were under his command due to the bonding of the dark one whatever the dark one owned so did Tarzac. “We the Aquarius also declare the battle challenge.” Queen Rachael confirmed. The Virgo guild and the Tarzac army as well as the House of Brita had become an alliance for the battle. Our fifteen Virgo soldiers and Tahquan rose to eighty-three soldiers against Hodu Khan’s hundreds. Before the Aquarius soldiers painted the House of Brita with blue dye so the warriors would not get the two opposing Taurus confused. The House of Brita and the House of Khan engaged in the first strike. The two House charged at one another. As the House of Brita locked bullhorns with House of Khan, we the Virgo and Aquarius was led in battle by Rachael. The Aquarius and us ran into the rear of the stampede striking the House of Khan with bronze swords and spears the Aquarius held. The left side of the stampede the Peitra savagely assaulted hopping on the House of Khan. As they hopped on their backs some Peitra tried to wrestle the House Khan to the ground while others would try to stab the House of Khan with daggers as they rode on the bulls backs. The right side of the stampede Tarzac and the Sagittarius stood lined up horizontally shooting arrows at the House of Khan.
The dark one did not interfere in the battle but enjoyed watching the bloodshed. Khan’s army realized that just charging the House of Brita was ridiculous because Khan’s servant army was being attacked on four sides. The servant army split into four sections. One section focused stampeding towards the House of Brita. The second section focused their attentions towards the foes that attacked them on the left and right side of their stampede. The Sagittarius could no longer relax in the battle by standing around shooting arrows at the Taurus. The Taurus started to stampede at the Sagittarius also. Tarzac had then led the Sagittarius Voshow in physical combat with grooks.
The servant army of Khan still protected their master Hodu Khan. A number of the servant army circled around their master to shield him. Hodu Khan was obvious to see in the crowd of battle. Hodu Khan expanded to a giant bull. The Sagittarius, Virgo, and Aquarius after twenty minutes stopped focusing on Hodu Khan’s servant army but now decided to go towards their master the source Hodu Khan to kill him. Hodu Khan’s opposes planned on fighting through the middle of the battle crowd where Hodu stood while the House of Brita tried to open up a gap for them by trying to push the servant army away from their master. Hodu Khan’s servant army protected their master like an animal mother to her cub from a predator. The last hour the House of Brita sustained more injuries at that moment in time. The House of Brita had to wedge a gap for the Virgo, Aquarius, Peitra, and Sagittarius to pass to kill Hodu Khan. We all made our way through the middle of the crowd to Hodu Khan. There were complications once we got to Hodu. His servant army would come to ward us off.
The Sagittarius now shielded us. Every time the servant army came near Virgo, Peitra, and the Aquarius the Sagittarius protected us by hacking Khan’s army away with grooks and their bow and arrows. Hodu Khan was so tall and heavy the Virgo, Aquarius, and Peitra held his four legs so that he would lose his balance and fall, which he did. At that moment the Sagittarius were bombarded with more and more of Khan’s army unlocking horns with the House of Brita to try to protect their Master Hodu Khan. The House of Brita and the Sagittarius had a hard time trying to fight the servant army away from Hodu. The servant army knew only one thing to protect their Master Hodu Khan Hodu Khan lay on the ground. The Virgo, Aquarius, and the Peitra stood on top of the massive juggernaut and hacked away at the beast. . Hodu’s skin was like armor. For thirty minutes with their swords, spears, and daggers we carved and hacked at Hodu Khan’s skin and finally the warlord Hodu Khan died from the joined efforts of the Virgo, Aquarius, and Peitra. Once the warlord Hodu Khan perished, the servant army had will of the bulls’ own and ran back off to their countries only eighty of Khan’s army survived out of two hundred. The Virgo started out with twenty Brave ones volunteers for the cause to retrieve the opals.
After the death of Hodu Khan only ten of us lived and eight were badly injured. The remaining Virgo were Fairmount the Matriarch, Ieta the Sanoon, River, Sajol, Kai, Sly~Psi, Capleas, Jambea, Charity, and Delzia. Tahquan remained unharmed. The House of Brita when they came to Battle started out with thirty and at the end remained with seventeen. Brita, Wzebol, and Glay remained alive and once the mind control of Hodu Khan wore off Wzebol and Glay were able to unite with their relatives the House of Shilord who they had to fight in the battle. The Peitra lost six warriors out of fifteen. The Aquarius lost six out of thirteen, and the Sagittarius lost eight out of fifteen. It was sunset and the temporary alliance Virgo, Sagittarius, Peitra, Aquarius, and the House of Brita now with the House of Shilord rested in Midland. Wzebol and Glay was grief stricken to hear that he general Podam Nuv killed Bog Shilord who was the emperor of Caskatta and ruled the Shilord dynasty. Dawl Shilord his son was alive and reunited with his cousins is now the chief house of Shilords but due to Taurus culture the House of Khan still ruled Kreestonia and Caskatta. Brita being Hodu’s brother is now heir to Kreestonia and Caskatta. Brita now known as Brita Oumkabtor by rite could keep both countries or give Caskatta back to the Shilords. The Shilords were worried and had this question on their mind… ‘Would Brita Oumkabtor give Caskatta back to the Shilords?’ Sajol and her Sister River as well as the other Virgo, plus Tahquan grieved over Sajol and River’s mother Pheonea, and the other dead Virgo. Pheonea and the other dead Virgo were buried in Midland.
Tarzac used his healing powers to heal River and the other wounded warriors. Sajol was furious at her Sister River. Sajol blamed River for their mother’s death. Sajol felt If River never ran off with out the others that Phoenea might have been alive. Sajol felt that she could never forgive River. The Virgo separated theirselves from the others. The Virgo sat around a campfire on a hill in Midland not to far from the other. The Virgo sat quietly mourning
. Tahquan and Tarzac stood at the others campfire looking at the grief stricken Virgo race. Tarzac still curious about Tahquan’s dwarf appearance trotted towards a kin Sagittarius. Tarzac wanted another Sagittarius to feel welcomed in the Sagittarius presence. “So, King Tarzac what tribe are you from?” Tahquan asked as Tarzac approached him. “Well you see I… well I was raised by Libra priestesses. I was abandoned on a beach when I was young. I think I am from the Ottes.” Tarzac explained. “Ottes! I am from the Ottes. I am a pure Ottes! Your family must have mixed breed. Pure Ottes are dwarf Sagittarius; that explains your magical abilities.” Taqhaun answered. “I wondered about your appearance… so your saying that the Ottes harbor magic?” Tarzac inquired. “Indeed…now why were you abandoned as a child…Do you know?” Tahquan asked. “King Kilagesh. He murdered my parents.” Tarzac said in fury. “King Kilagesh. The name brings back terrible memories. I was a coward Tarzac. I ran away to escape the wrath of Kilagesh. By chance do you know the name of your parents?” Tahquan went on to say. “I was told that my father’s name was Desand a tribal noble.” Tarzac said. “Desand. I think I knew him. If it was the Desand I knew…His father and I were great friends. They were great men. I can not stop thinking or wondering how is it that you became King of the Unified City.” Tahquan commented. “A long story. Just know that I took care of King Kilagesh ‘s tyrant rule. Kilagesh will no longer be a threat to anyone.”
Tarzac devious voiced a sinister smile on his face. This statement that Tarzac said Tahquan had gotten an idea on what Tarzac did to Kilagesh. Tarzac’s statement frightened Tahquan. Tarzac and Tahquan talked for hours. Tarzac asked Tahquan many questions about his tribe the Ottes. This gave Tarzac and opportunity to learn about his lost heritage. Neither parties knew of either’s goal. Both parties were clueless on where the ground opal that Hodu Khan held. The Virgo and Tahquan planned to seek it in the morning. In the middle of the night Tarzac and the dark one anxious to finish their goals discussed the ground opal while all parties were asleep. “Where could it be?” Questioned Garranzana de loco. “A Taurus is not physically equipped to hide it in a satchel like myself.” Stated Tarzac. “Since the opal and its possessor becomes myself. If I was not physically equipped to make something to hide I might swallow it. Of course!” Garranzana de loco pondered out loud. “That would be logical. Can we not since the opals presence?” Tarzac questioned. “Yes sometimes if we are close enough to it.” The dark one declared. “Well dark one let us go near the corpse.” Tarzac suggested. Garranzana de loco turned back in human form and along with Tarzac they traveled in Midland to where the corpse of Hodu Khan lay.
Tarzac and the dark one stood next to the slaughtered corpse. “Yes I feel the presence of the opal.” The dark one stated. “We must cut this beast open, and take our prize.” Stated Tarzac. Garranzana de loco (the dark one) and Tarzac dug into the already slaughtered corpse of Hodu. Tarzac and the dark one dug, cut, and split the beast. They split Hodu in two halves. It took Tarzac and the dark one twenty minutes to find the opal in the dead body. The opal lay in the belly of Hodu Khan. Once the two obtained the ground opal called the Blood Coral- they woke up the Sagittarius, Peidra, and the Aquarius in the middle of the night and explained to them to quickly board the Alexim ship except the Peidra. The dark one discharged the Peidra troops until summoned again the Peidra were free to do whatever. The dark one departed from Tarzac as well. The dark one altered into a dragon snake and flew off. The Sagittarius and Aquarius sailed back to Yec. Tahquan and the Brave Ones as well as the House of Brita awoke and wondered where did the Peidra, Aquarius, and Sagittarius run off to.
Later in the day the Tahquan found the corpse of Hodu Khan mutilated and autopsied. Tahquan figured out that the other party had taken the Blood Coral out of Hodu Khan and ran off. Tahquan was suspicious of that group because they did journey with a Kuman. Tahquan and the Virgo were happy to stop Hodu Khan despite failing to retrieve the Blood Coral. Tahquan and the guild planned to go back to Sod so that they might recuperate themselves and maybe recruit more Virgo. Then they planned to journey to find the opals.
