Zodiac World: Chapter 8 the virgo brave ones

Virgo Brave Ones This is a scroll text of events written by our guild the Virgo Brave Ones. At ﬁrst the guild was only twenty soon to be a nation. Tahquan who was a Sagittarius from the Ottes Clan founded the Sisterhood. Ottes Clan founded the Sisterhood. Jambea was frightened like the rest of the Virgo in the village Sod. There was a great earthquake that engulfed some of the village land. The Virgo came out to look at the huge hole in the ground and there laid an opal.

“Stand back Children we do not know what this is!” Fairmount yelled out.

Out of the shadows of the night came a dwarf creature half man / half horse. He held a scepter of a Capricorn skull on top. Jambea saw the scepter radiate and she drooled at it. It spoke to her in a way saying ‘come meet your destiny child’. “Virgos of Sod I am Tahquan a Sagittarius from the Ottes Clan.” Fairmount came to him extending her arm to him for a handshake.

While shaking hands she said. “My name is Fairmount, the Matriarch of Sod, Welcome.” “The FaSha messenger of Polyganda sends me to the Virgo.” Tahquan explained. “FaSha told us of your coming but it didn’t tell us why. Why have you come Tahquan?”

“That opal is very dangerous in the ground. There are creatures of the Zodiac that will come to take that opal and take your land. Matter of fact he is on his way as we speak his name is Hodu Khan. The Virgo has to come with me because the opal does not aﬀect the entire race. The FaSha wants you to collect all 12 opals keep them safe, and stop Hodu Khan from conquering your land.”

“How? We are farmers with these Capricorn that help us cultivate the land.”
“I am to train you for war.”

“How many do you need?”

“All of you”

The village cried out “We are farmers” “We do not want to die.” “You will die if you don’t come with me Hodu Khan will kill you all–!”

Tahquan hollered out.

After twenty minutes of persuading the village only twenty joined. Tahquan called us the Brave Ones. Jambea and Kai stepped up ﬁrst.

Then Fairmount she thought it her duty being that she was the matriarch of Sod. Ieta joined. “What is your name child?” “Ieta.”

“What a ﬁne tunic you wear it has ﬂowers draped over it.”

“I am a Sanoon.”

“What’s that?”

“Virgo holy woman—someone needs to talk to Polyganda while on this journey” Then there was Charity, Delzia, Meiona, Phoenea the mother of River and Sajol, Tarcop, and Capleas. Nine women were called Forgers because they could forge bronze swords very well in charge of the Forgers were Kai.

Kai had the blackest hair in the Zodiac World she was quite athletic but short just ﬁve feet one. Her tone of her voice was rough and soft at the same time. After the twenty brave ones volunteered we all said our goodbyes to our sisters and we quickly journeyed to the unnamed land. It was explained to us that

Hodu Khan could be moving fast towards Sod and we had to meet him half way to stop him. The unnamed land was smothering hot as we reached the beginning of the jungle we smelled rotten ﬂesh. “What is that smell Taqhaun?” River questioned.

Then after River found a trail of blood on the grass whereas ﬂies swarmed the blood. River and Charity screamed in fright. Tahquan went to investigate where the blood came.

The blood seemed to race from the jungle like a river. Out of the jungle trees came a Leo that limped out of the jungle and fainted. The Leo had a scar across his eye and streaks of red ﬂowed in his mane. Tahquan walked over to the Leo while the others watched from a distance. “Oh my god its Emaree’s son!” Tahquan said.

Jambea walked over to Tahquan and the wounded Leo.

“Tahquan what is wrong?” Questioned Jambea.

“Nothing, could you and the others help me tend to this Leo’s wounds?” Tahquan pleaded.

“That is what that creature is called a Leo?” Jambea questioned.

“Yes. His name is Cor” Tahquan answered frustrated.

“ Charity! Come over here.” Shouted out Jambea “What is it Jambea?” Asked Charity. “Help us tend to this being.” Replied Jambea.

“What is this being?” Asked Charity.

“A Leo.” Tahquan answered.

River ran over to see what
Tahquan, Jambea, and Charity were doing.

“What is going on over here?” River asked “

Charity is tending to this being called a Leo.” Jambea answered back.

“Why are you over here Tarcop?”

“I am carrying the medical supplies.” Replied Tarcop.

“Tahquan can I help?” River asked.

“There is no need for you Here River.” Tahquan told River.

River pouted and walked away. Charity tended to Cor’s wounds she wrapped rags around his wounds. Tahquan used his magic to make Cor conscious. Tahquan’s magic lacked healing powers like the Libra Jasmine.

Tahquan was a powerful but was not best of them. Cor had become conscious and he informed Tahquan and company what had happened to him. One night Cor’s mistresses were hunting prey through the jungle and were halted by what they seen. An onyx opal hovered in mid air spinning itself around. Frightened by this the mistresses went and told Cor. Cor and some of the Zy pride went to investigate the mysterious object He did not know what possessed him, but Cor jumped up and grabbed the hovering onyx opal in his mouth. The Zy and Cor petriﬁed of the ground opal thinking it was something evil so they buried it in the ground.
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 agonyin 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 in proximity. 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.

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. Several 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 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.

Tahquan commanded.
It is my experience that engaging in combat not only hurts the opponent but it hurts you too. I feel bad when I
hurt an individual. That is why I choose not to ﬁght because I do not want to see any body hurt by my hands.
Then there are those certain times when adversary pushes you to a point where you can no longer be at peace. I
plead with the adversary that I do not want to ﬁght. I do not want to hurt them and they are ignorant to my
power it is great and could crush them. The enemy mistakes your peaceful pleads as by my hands. It upsets me
that I a weakness or fear on your part. That enemy harks its evil upon you pushing your very peaceful existence
to hate. Then you are forced to engage in war. It breaks my heart to see even an enemy fall down could be a
part of such savagery. I who studies in peace and evolution. I study to evolve into such a creature where I can
never be bothered by taunts and be provoked into combat, or even getting angry. Tahquan read the words of the Ultimate to us. He told them how he recited those words every time he would engage in battle so he could remember the ideals his good friend the Ultimate taught him which was only battle if you have no other alternative. Tahquan learned many things from the Ultimate. He was taught by the Ultimate Scorpio combat (guerilla warfare and magic) Tahquan thought the Ultimate to be a wise being.
Cor walked with Tahquan and us to grassland where his army gathered. The Zy army planned to meet at this particular grass plain after the battle. Cor’s army lain on the grass licking their wounds. Cor’s army was in no condition to recapture the onyx ground opal. The same time Cor walked over to his army and introduced Tahquan and our guild to the Zy. Motu had walked towards their direction. Motu was the Gobizyan King, as he walked towards their direction he held a stick in his mouth symbolizing he came in peace. Cor and his army were surprised that Motu would do such a thing. Cor respected Motu’s peaceful gesture and walked over to Motu. “Motu it is brave of you to come here alone. What do you have to say to me”?
King Cor arrogantly said.
“Oh great King Cor – the Gobizyan were jealous of your fertile land but never would we have the intentions of going to war with you and the Zy. The Zomen had controlled our minds. Please forgive us. The Zomen have now left the unnamed lands. They have the source of power they so desperately sought.”
Motu cried.
“Is that why you came Motu because your ally left, and you have no power now. You want to beg for mercy so we will not exile the Gobizyan like we did the O’trigan bastards.”
King Cor said.
“No…No we had no control over our minds. Never would we intentionally attack the Zy you know your like a brother to me Cor our bond is deep, and we both hated the O’trigan for their laws were unjust and cruel.”
Motu cried.
“I will think about forgiving the Gobizyan. You should leave now Motu…the war
between us is over.”
King Cor said with his nose turned up in the air.
Motu ran back to the Gobizyan land. He was frightened to ask Cor any other questions like would the Gobizyan be punished or exiled. Motu just would wait and
see through time. Tahquan and our guild could not chase the Zomen and recapture the onyx opal. We would of gone oﬀ our course to stop Hodu Khan. It was decided that they would retrieve the opal some other time. In the meantime Tarzac was at sea… and these were accounts of he and his friends we found years later after the Great War.
Ardax Account
How do I explain the hate that I felt all my life? I hated King Kilagesh I remember vaguely how Kilagesh’s uniﬁcation towards the tribes put my parents through madness. My mother had to go through being raped by Tarlic tribal soldiers not just once but many times in front of my father and myself. The shame she felt the shame my father felt not being able to do anything. I was just about six years old in
human years when this happened and still remembered. I remember my tribe being forced to move from the Hosand Country and to Yec. My parents and the other elders died building the so-called “Uniﬁed City” Yec. I like many tribes hate the
city of Yec its structure have the blood of my people in it. I am Ardax tribe of the Appendock. I was an orphan at the age of twelve. I grew to be a man in a year stealing to survive in the still half-made city. I could have gained shelter if I would help build the city, but I refused. Later on in life I had to join the army of Kilagesh, no longer could I survive in the streets I was tired of living that life. I knew if I
joined the army that I would have shelter in the army’s corridors of the castle and back then being in the army was one the most high paying jobs. There I met Tarzac. He was just a few years younger than I was. He was a Sagittarius new to the city. We became good comrades. He was the ﬁrst friend I ever had and I was the ﬁrst friend he ever had.
I was all for being in the Killians the assassination group organized by Tarzac to terrorize King Kilagesh and later being responsible for his death and the crowning of Tarzac. Tarzac although my friend is very mysterious his past no one knows about it not even his wife. I often think what his motive to killing King Kilagesh was. What hatred did he have for the king after all he was new to the city? Maybe he just wanted to be King of Yec. He was a better king than Kilagesh he never oppressed the Sagittarius in my eyes.

I like the entire Sagittarius in Yec, Desert City and even the Aquarius have hated the foreign invaders the Aries they had been the enemy for years. They killed many good warriors in Yec and in their homeland Appolem. We fought the Aries for about six years and the war felt endless. The Aries had sparked up the hate in me again. My hatred was hidden when Tarzac had been crowned King. It surfaced for the Aries. All the soldiers cheered when Tarzac and his companion the dark one
scorched the jungles with black magic. It felt good hearing the screams of the beast it was like revenge for the entire dead Sagittarius soldiers killed by the hands of Aries.

We the soldiers did not know why getting some crystal from a temple was so important but we obeyed Tarzac. The crystal was on Tarzac’s ship when we traveled home to Yec. It is funny calling Yec home. The ten ships traveling to Yec followed each other in a line. Then it was a great storm it seemed to come from the crystal on Tarzac’s boat, the storm separated the Tarzac’s ship from the others my ship and the other ships stayed on the same route but Tarzac’s boat got oﬀ course.
Before that the soldiers felt hatred beyond our norm like our souls were being erased with evil. I have seen some soldiers’ eyes turn black. Even after the storm some soldiers’ eyes were still black. I am not concerned with Tarzac and his ship I know he is resourceful and they will make it back to Yec.
—Ardax
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 hadencountered 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 –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.

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 Virgos disappointment
Seven months later, the Virgo sisters, our Capricorn companions, Tahqaun, and the Heart of Warriors landed on the shore of Caskatta we sailed in ﬁve separate wooden boats twenty feet long thirty feet wide. The Heart taught our guild how to engineer sailing boats. The numerous party planned to travel from Caskatta southwestern hemisphere to the northwestern hemisphere to the land Estmar, there we all would meet Jasmine the Libra Enforcer. When we reached Estmar our party would all discuss how we might stop Tarzac and take his ground opals. To our surprise Jasmine and Jambea stood on the beach of Caskatta waiting for us. The seventeen Gemini ran towards Jasmine and embraced her with a hug.

Jasmine had a melancholy expression on her face as she said
“This is not the time to rejoice Heart of Warriors.” “Why? What has happened?”
The Heart asked.

“I will discuss this when the rest of the party has boarded oﬀ the ships.” Jasmine reacted.

The rest of the party boarded oﬀ our ships and were curious to see Jambea and Jasmine on the beach. They all approached the Libra Enforcer and the Heart of Warriors. Delzia asked.

“Jasmine why are you here? We thought that you were going to meet us in Estmar?” “Here is the Capricorn ground opal.”
Jambea reported as she handed the opal to Ieta who stood next to Delzia.

“Tarzac has invaded and conquered Sod, unnamed land, and Bismet and it is rumored that his empire has expanded through the western hemisphere. This has happened while we all were away.”
Jasmine mentioned.

The Capricorn hung their heads down in sorrow. A few of our sisters put their head in their hands as to hide their fallen tears.

Delzia busted out in tears and shouted out “Oh my we should have been in Sod to help.”
Charity put her hand on Delzia’s shoulder and consoled her sister saying…
“It probably would of done no good. Tarzac and his army could of destroyed us.”

“What has happened to our sisters and the Capricorns?”
Questioned Capleas.
“Do not worry sisters we will take back our land!” Kai yelled out to everyone.

“Psi~Sly I can not believe this has happened…” Tarcop pronounced to her sister.
“This is so sad.”
Ieta spoken Ieta to River.
River looked at Ieta and thought she should give everyone words of encouragement so she said “At least we have most of the opals.”

“Now what shall we do?” Ieta asked.

“Take our land back!” Kai angrilly yelled out.

“Kai we need more warriors than just us and the Heart of Warriors.” Tarcop replied.

“We too know how it feels to have ones homeland destroyed and invaded. I and the other Heart of Warriors are angry by your lost.”

“We will ﬁght to the death to help.” A Heart of Warrior volunteered.

“Jasmine. What has happened to the Capricorn and Virgo of Sod?” Charity investigated.

“I do not know Charity, but we can not just charge the lands…Everyone listen! Tarzac’s army are
everywhere except Caskatta and Kreestonia, so we can not just charge the lands Tarzac probably has thousands of soldiers.”
Jasmine declared.

“Jasmine we could ask the Taurus here for help. We helped them to get rid of a warlord named Hodu Khan?”
Kai questioned

“Yes, I remember Tahquan told me about that conﬂict; we could ask the Shilords and the house of Brita for help.”
Jasmine replied.

“I ‘m thinking we can sail up the coast to Kinishi. Kinishi is the safest land for us all to go. The Libra might help us stop Tarzac.”
River suggested.

“They might help River. Let us ask the Taurus ﬁrst. There is no guarantee that the Libra or Taurus will help us.”
Jasmine declared.

Peace was among the Shilords and the House of Brita. Dawl Shilord and Brita Oumkabtor refused to help the Virgo and their posse. The two Taurus leaders were afraid to ﬁght another war– they thought ﬁghting Tarzac was unnecessary. Tarzac opposed no threat to the Taurus. The Virgo and company sailed to Kinishi to ask the Libra for help.

Helep and Ebook two Heart of Warriors decided to sail to Duce to retrieve more Gemini warriors to help the cause of defeating Garranzana de loco and Tarzac while the others sailed to Kinishi.
Tahquan stood in sadness and Jambea always knew when something was wrong with Tahquan.
She just looked at him and he said
“I can no longer go on.”

“What do you mean Tahquan?” “I’m dying.”

“Dying?”
“This scepter I hold bears a curse.” “What kind?”

“It is called the Kanis scepter?”

“Since you came to our village I gazed upon it in awe… those stones in the eyes of the Capricorn skull are captivating. Its like.”

“Like what? Jambea.”
“It spoke to me when you came to our village that night.” “What did it say?”

“Come child meet your destiny.”

“Then I must pass it on to you ; Kanis has been watching you.” “Who is Kanis?”

“Kanis is an ancient Scorpio. A great magician he wanted more and more power, he traveled to Opricorn because he heard of the Royal Stones. The Royal Stones were passed on to Kings of Capricorns whenever a heir to the throne would ascend he would attach Royal Stones to its eyebrows giving him eternal life.

The Capricorn King thought a century of living was enough so they passed the stone to each heir every century.”

“How do you play into this?”

“Well. Prince Nydam was to be given two stones that passed on century to century for 3000 years to Capricorn princes that were heir to the Capricorn throne. The stones would give the princes when attached to the prince’s eyebrow, a century of sustained youth or more if desired, but Capricorn law stated that all princes most give the two stones up after a century for the next prince heir to ascend to the throne. The Capricorn King must renounce his throne to the next inheritance in order for the stones to come oﬀ. The stones when attached could never come oﬀ unless the King renounces his throne.

Magician Pisces and Capricorn made the stones.

Prince Nydam had gotten the Mayhem Disease and died. The two stones at the time were attached above his eyes because he was about to ascend to the throne of Opricorn. The two stones could not be removed from the corpse. Prince Nydam was buried in a sacred tomb with the two stones of sustained age attached to him. The other Capricorn princes that were heir to the throne could only now sustain normal life spans.

Kanis raided Prince Nydam’s tomb and attached the skull to a magical scepter and castes a spell on the skull attached to the scepter –whoever holds the wand, will have reduced age like the Capricorn princes before the death of Prince Nydam. The Capricorn never attended any prince to have eternal youth they thought that a century of life was enough living.

The Capricorn were appalled on what Kanis had did so cursed him. To redeem himself he would have to pass the scepter to whomever he felt ﬁt and one night in the Hosand Country he spoke to me a ghostly ﬁgure and passed the scepter to me and the same goes to every scepter holder or they would share his fate to walk as a ghostly ﬁgure for a century. I have come to give you the scepter I hold here. I have been watching you and ﬁnd you worthy of the scepter. You are a powerful magician and a righteous being. ”

During his adventures with the Virgo he had been giving Jambea, the Virgo lessons of magic to equal his skills and on her journey with Jasmine she also learned more magic.
“I pledge to do the right thing, and tell no one of the secrets of the Kanis scepter.”

“Farewell my friend Jambea. Lead the Virgo righteously for a century. I know you will defeat Tarzac all tyrants fall. I will take a boat to the Realm of Scorpio to die”

Jambea pledged to do what Tahquan had done with it tell no one but the successors its secret. Tahquan took a boat to the Realm of Scorpio to die..”
Said the ghostly Scorpio ﬁgure.

Tahquan felt he did not redeem himself totally because he could not help stop another Sagittarius tyrant like Kilagesh. Tahquan did feel good about his self that he helped stopped one warlord, Hodu Khan. The truth of the matter is he redeemed his self more than he had to. For a century Tahquan was known as a prophet, warrior, magician and great, good-hearted Sagittarius from the Ottes tribe. Tahquan the last of the pure Ottes.

Jambea
Where light resides darkness came in its place, this happened all through the western hemisphere. Good was taken over by evil.At this time Garranzana de loco/Tarzac was known to those who they conquered as the Bonded. It was dawn when the Virgo and Capricorn from the highlands of Sod heard the marching of hundreds of Grandi Phi from Che and Sagittarius from the Desert City come onto their land. Only the Virgo Brave Ones were knowledgeable in the art of war and they were away with Jasmine and the Heart of Warriors. The remaining Virgo was not war like but peaceful farmers as well as the Capricorn. The Grandi Phi and Sagittarius from the Desert City came onto their soil, they declared to the Virgo and Capricorn that the land of Sod now was property of the Bonded and Sultan Kali Amhed. The Virgo had a choice to leave or become loyal subjects of the Bonded regime. Most Virgo and Capricorn frightened ran away from their homeland. Some Virgo stayed and fought. Fairmount the Matriarch led these Virgo. The few ﬁghting Virgo were defeated easily and captured. In months Tarzac and Garranzana de loco ordered the captured Virgo to build a castle for the dark one.

In months the Virgo had done their chore for their new master. Tarzac/Garranzana de loco put the Za crystal that was shipped from Yec to Sod to be positioned on top of the castle in Sod. This was done to make the Virgo and Capricorn mindless slaves for Garranzana de loco. Garranzana de loco stationed Grandi Phi and Sagittarius to control Sod. {The opals and the power of the Za crystal miles away turned beings heartless and cruel. Virgos captured were not aﬀected by the mind control of the opals, but the Za crystal eﬀected the Virgos. The Za crystal aﬀected beings from Sod to Bismet as the Sagittarius soldiers and General Ardax when they imported the Za crystal from Appolem to Yec. Beings eyes became black and skin complexions were paled.

Capturing an Enforcer

King Tarzac decided to leave the conflict as the war waged on in Sod, the Bonded against the five armies The dark one led the Bonded’s army. King Tarzac took his bodyguard Ethan and Tarlic soldiers. Unaware of where King Tarzac was taking them they mindlessly followed their orders.

“The Tarlics have been a great asset to the conflict in Sod. When we return to Yec you and your troops will be rewarded Ethan. Ethan you have been an excellent bodyguard and soldier ever since we traveled to the Yeipa civilization.”

Tarzac mentioned to Ethan.

“Thank you my King. Tarlics have nothing but respect and admiration for you. The Tarlic clan and I might ask. Why did you request that we all leave the conflict?”

Ethan asked.

“Meoche… The dark one can handle the uprising of the five armies—I have sent him more troops along with Queen Rachael; now I must go to Meoche to oversee its construction. Sultan-Kali Amed and I feel that Meoche should be an United Kingdom. There are millions of Sagittarius and Aquarius. Thousands of Piedra, expansion is a necessity. Meoche will be a city for all under the Bonded’s rule.”

Tarzac commented.

“Shinden Roudou are they a threat to us… You spoke of them once in Sod?”

Questioned Ethan.

“Well when I lived in the Temple of Libra I read the scrolls all the knowledge of the world mostly. Shinden Roudou are disciplined Libra soldiers trained by the Libra Enforcer Jasmine there only leader they respond too except the Shi Tablo, but with the Shinden Roudou out in Sod Jasmine leads them. They are threats but can be destroyed. “

“What is the Shi Tablo?”

Ethan asked as he looked to King Tarzac.

“A Shinden Roudou holy book—more less a Libra prophecy.”

“Something about Libra makes me fearful.”

Ethan mentioned.

“Fear not they might appear god-like but they are mortal men and women.”

Tarzac declared.

“We are suppressed to journey West of Che into the none populated lands. It would be so easier for us to go through Estmar.”

Tarzac ‘s bodyguard Ethan said disappointed.

“The Bonded’s and its army are banned from Estmar.”

Tarzac stated.

“Are we war mongrels and kill innocent souls?”

Ethan questioned.

“Most of us… have killed innocent souls during the Sagittarius wars. It is safer if the Bonded and its army not go into Estmar. The caretaker there Arboreal the Enchantress is very powerful. We should not go up against her.

Tarzac replied.

“Every race seems to be against us, we expand to unify as One Power. The armies opposes us.”

Ethan responded in anger.

“It aggravates me too Ethan. My vision is throated—The Bonded will succeed. “

Tarzac and Ethan along with the Tarlic Clan journeyed days into they had gotten into Meoche. Weeks later Queen Rachael along with some of her Amazon warriors walked their prisoner Jasmine the Enforcer from Sod to Meoche to be taken to King Tarzac.

“Does it burn your hands?”

Jasmine stated to Rachael as Rachael held her golden sword.

“No why should it?”

Rachael became peculiar and asked.

“The Umtis—destroys all threats of evil.”

Jasmine answered.

“I am not evil.”

Rachael demanded.

“You serve the dark one… In the beginning of time, we called your kind Diwers. Those that worked for non-Zodiac.”

Jasmine said.

“What’s wrong with non-Zodiacs?”

Questioned Rachael

“In the beginning they brought forth war, disease, and hate on the world you tell me what’s wrong with that.”

Jasmine replied.

“Who made this Umtis—such perfection in one sword?

Rachael asked.

“Polyganda.”

Jasmine answered.

“I am an Aquarius…so ridiculous one god—12 spirits gods are the only gods.”

“Much to learn Queen Rachael.”

“We approach Meoche soon; you will soon meet our masters the Bonded .”

Rachael declared.

“I only have One Master.”

Jasmine spoke in anger.

“Polyganda a false god. You will have a real master the Bonded .”

Rachael spoke in anger.

“You will have to kill me an another Enforcer will come. Cut off the head of the worm and another will appear.”

“Why do you and your five army resist the Bonded every body will be under One Power and one nation?

Rachael asked.

“Under the effects of the ground opals.”

Jasmine whispered to herself.

As they reached the city of Meoche, Jasmine looked onto the city. It was a beautiful city. Like Yec brick walls surrounded it. The city was more spacious and buildings were bigger. As they entered the Meoche, there were grasslands inside the city for the mini Taurus houses could graze. The mini Taurus houses and the Ayzans and Boyhems two Leo prides dwelled mostly outside the city walls. There were few Piedra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius warriors within the city constructing brown stone buildings and houses. A Piedra walked passed Queen Rachael, her soldiers, and Jasmine suddenly Rachael yelled out to the Piedra soldier…

“Where is King Tarzac?”

“With the Boyhems a few feet away from here.”

A Piedra yelled out.

They walked a few feet and seen King Tarzac talking with the Boyhems.

“Tarzac!”

Tarzac looked around and seen Queen Rachael yelling out his name.

“Rachael!”

Tarzac yelled in excitement. He hadn’t been excited in a long time.

“I have great news for you my King. Look what I have in my hand and what is besides me tied up and captured.”

Rachael said.

“Jasmine.”

Tarzac said.

“Yes my King.”

Rachael replied.

“You have done excellent. Follow me to the dungeons.”

“Yes my Lord. What has been going on with you my King.”

Queen Rachael asked Tarzac as they walked towards the Meoche dungeons a few feet away dragging Jasmine along.

“Gallo Shem opposed me in Yec he put together a rebellion group against me. They tried to kill me. I destroyed my threats as I always do. Well Jasmine the Libra Enforcer we have met before.”

“Yes Tarzac I have known you since you been young, have you not forgotten where you’ ve come from.”

Jasmine spoke.

“I remember. That’s why I’ll make your death quick as possible.”

Tarzac replied.

“Don’t you remember another Enforcer will come for you.”

Jasmine said.

“Let them come, them and the Shinden Roudou! I will kill them all! Do not you remember we have the Umtis in our hands? The new Enforcer will have to come here without her greatest power!”

Arrogantly yelled out Tarzac

“Diwer. Go to Estmar.”

Jasmine answered back.

King Tarzac became angry and then slapped Jasmine the Enforcer on the cheek.

“Here we are the Dungeons of Meoche.”

Tarzac said as he pointed to the dirt ground.

“I see nothing.”

Queen Rachael responded.

“ Open.”

Tarzac shouted out. Where Tarzac pointed a cooper door magically appeared on the ground. The door then opened itself it swung to the left. King Tarzac walked into the door and Queen Rachael followed shoving Jasmine along. Thirteen steps laid leading to the prison. The Dungeon was an underground cave with dirt floors. Torches were all alongside the wall, but only a few were lit. The cave was empty.

“You are the first prisoner priestess. Queen Rachael bring her to me.”

King Tarzac smugly stated.

“Yes, Tarzac.”

Queen Rachael responded. Then she gripped Jasmine by her neck pushing Jasmine towards Tarzac. King Tarzac then tied Jasmine to a wooden post that stuck deep with in the ground.

The five armies retreated into the Hosand Country no sister Virgo stepped up to take the Matriarch Fairmount’s place after all who could replace a mother. The ground opals had to be protected from the Bonded. The Guild started to construct a fortress castle to store the ground opals. In the grasslands of the Hosand Country they built the fortress from six feet under ground –made out of gray stone. The entrance was enchanted and only a secret word could open it. We were the only race aloud in the citadel in order to protect the five armies from the harmful affects of the ground opals. The five armies held meeting to find out what was next for them in war against the Bonded.

“ We have built the fortress Zirgini—now what is next?”

Ambition asked.

“ When do we fight the Bonded —will we be ready?”

Kai the Virgo asked.

“ Allies we need more allies?”

Ieta added.

“ The Libras of Kinishi are to selfish to help any one but themselves. The only Libra that will help you is standing here… The Shinden Roudou.”

“The Gemini is coming to are aide. ”

The Heart of Warriors responded.

“When? It’s been about a year since Helep an Ebook had gone off for help… They might have gotten lost at sea.”

Psi~Sly shouted out.

“It feels hopeless we fought and fought and we could not even take back Sod.”

Ieta added.

“What if we ask the Libra priestess for advice?”

A Shinden Roudou commented.

“That seems to be the reasonable suggestion. I as the leader of the five armies shall go. I will take the Shinden Roudou they are the most familiar with the priestesses. The Leo in the unnamed just heard rumors of it.”

King Cor said.

Later in the day…

“Capleas why did you not show up to the meeting with the five armies?”

“Well Delzia I am so tired of this adventure. I just want to go home to Sod, but can’t… going to the meeting to talk about why we could not take back Sod will depress me.”

“I totally understand. We fought Hodu Khan and now this Bonded. I just want to farm again. The Virgo have become warriors, and politicians, I wonder could we go back to what we used to be?”

Delzia stated; her voice had gotten melancholy her head dropped down.

“I don’t know.

So are you going to the Temple of Libra along with the Shinden Roudou?”

Capleas asked.

“No. King Cor only is taking Shinden Roudou-four hundred of them. We agreed that it was needed to have us at Zirgini in case of danger. ”

Delzia replied.

“ Ambition and the Zomen are so dedicated as if they were the Virgo in protecting the ground opals.”

Capleas responded

“Yes they have seen the light… they stand at the walls loyal protectors. King Cor doesn’t trust them but I do. They have been great assets in all this. Where is Jambea today?”

Capleas asked

“Off with the a few Virgo and Sanoons praying for the soul of our army organizer and friend Tahquan.”

Delzia gathered.

“She is so powerful with that magic scepter why hasn’t she claimed leadership of the Virgo.”

Capleas commented.

“Jambea. She would be a great leader—many sisters would want it …she doesn’t want internal turmoil among the Virgo. There has been so much Our Sister River who ran off Polyganda knows where she’s. The Sanoons and the Forgers fighting for power. Only if the Matriarch was here.”

Delzia noted.

King Cor along with the Shinden Roudou—traveled to the coastline of the Hosand Country on the beach of the Hosand Country the Temple of Libra stood. As they reached the Temple of Libra, they saw twenty warships coming on the shore.

“What…who can it be?”

Questioned a Shinden Roudou soldier.

“I have no clue.”

Another Shinden Roudou soldier responded.

“We shall wait here until the beings on that ship comes off the ship we do not know if they are the One Power.”

King Cor commanded.

In minutes the Gemini bordered off the ships.

“They are Gemini!”

Yelled out some Shinden Roudou.

“Finally they have come after all this time of waiting.”

King Cor reacted in excitement.

King Cor and the Shinden Roudou walked up to their ships. Along with the vast Gemini army was Helep and Ebook they led the army. It was 15 warriors in each individual 20 wooden ships 40 feet long 60 feet wide. Consisting of 300 Gemini warriors. They came off the ships angry and ready for war to get revenge on the Sagittarius for the destruction of Duce.

“King Cor where is Jasmine?”

Helep inquired.

“At last she is assumed to be dead.”

King Cor sadly stated.

“Curse Tarzac and his army! She was truly righteous .”

Ebook responded in anger.

“What brings you to the shores?”

Helep interrogated.

“We have come to the Temple of Libra to ask for advice on how to stop the Bonded we were lacking power and warriors.”

King Cor answered.

“Look no further the Gemini has arrived.”

A Gemini soldier yelled out.

“The Temple of Libra exists.”

The Gemini army said in awe as they glazed eyes on the Temple of Libra.

Coming out of the temple at the time was General Moshac. King Cor, Shinden Roudou, and the Gemini felt panic and angry. The army crowded around General Moshac.

“I come in peace. I hate King Tarzac and had come to the Temple of Libra to get advice on his demise!”

General Moshac yelled out.

“How can we trust you?”

Helep asked.

“Ask the Libra priestess.”

General Moshac responded.

General Moshac then led King Cor and fifteen Shinden Roudou the others into the Temple of Libra. The entrance of the Temple was a10 by 10ft double wooden doors with brass knockers. They did not knock on the Temple doors but just walked in. The Temple was dark and dank lit only by small increments of sunlight coming from small glass windows. It had the smell of mildew. As the Gemini, Shinden Roudou, Cor, and General Moshac walked on the wooden floors the floor would make large creaky sounds. Although it smelled like mildew, incenses were lit all through the temple one could see the smoke. As they passed the foyer, there was a large room that was non-furnished only, but one thing that remained in this room was a pool of oil. The ceiling rose up to 100ft. There were two corridors one to the left of the entrance room and one to the right of the entrance room. On the left there were 20 chambers all the doors remained closed. To the right were 5 chambers all but two doors were open. A Priestess Cleo stood in the entrance room along with a Priestess Sage and said.

“General Moshac you have returned along with an army.”

Priestesses spoke as the Shinden Roudou all knelled.

“Priestess tell us please is this Sagittarius here to bring down the downfall of the Bonded?”

A Shinden Roudou asked.

“Yes, temple followers. You may rise loyal servants.”

Priestess Sage stated. Then the fifteen Shinden Roudou got up off their knees and stood.

“Well we owe you an apology Moshac.”

King Cor said.

“No problem. I have indeed come to stop my King. I was stationed in Bismet. Nothing is going on in Bismet. King Tarzac has seemed to forgotten I remain in Bismet. I came to the Hosand Country unnoticed by any of the Bonded army. I have my personal reasons for stopping King Tarzac. If you didn’t know Tarzac is bonded with the dark one.”

Moshac went on a tirade.

“Yes we know.”

King Cor said in disappointment. King Cor once meet Tarzac. He spent a day with him and knew he was once a deceit being.

“Well the Libra priestesses have told me that the only way to kill a Kuman is only one born from fire can kill a Kuman. We could stop the Bonded by breaking the bond so the dark one cannot retain these opals he seeks. By killing Tarzac before he collects all opals and only then will his bond become fully complete.”

Moshac commented.

“Well General Moshac you must come with us to our safe haven to discuss how we can get close enough to kill King Tarzac.”

King Cor discussed.

“How can we know to trust him?”

A Shinden Roudou questioned.

“Libra Priestesses can we trust General Moshac?”

Another Shinden Roudou asked.

“Yes. He is no threat to your armies.”

Cleo the Libra priestess declared.

“Yes you can trust me.”

Moshac said in desperation.

“The matter at hand before we seen this General Moshac Priestesses Sage and Cleo, we have come to the temple to ask your guidance, When should we fight the Bonded, and where would they be a weak country that we can attack in what area of his territory is he weak.”

King Cor questioned the Libra priestesses.

“Bismet would be an area of attack Shinden Roudou, but you would have to go through Sod. You all are not able to defeat the Bonded in Sod—you are not ready to take it back know this you will know when to attack.”

They replied.

“Allies we need allies.”

Shouted out a Shinden Roudou.

“Seek no further General Moshac is all you need.”

The Libra stated.

“A Petra by the name of Marius he and band of other Petra are formed in a plot to assassinate King Tarzac. If only you can meet with him. You all can construct a plan to destroy the Bonded.”

Moshac commented.

“This sounds like what we need. General Moshac come to our fortress Zirgini.”

King Cor voiced in excitement.

“I have to get back to my post, but please show me directions so that I may show Marius.”

Moshac said.

Meanwhile, Tarzac was in Meoche. Although they were almost bonded he never knew when he would come to see Tarzac, he had gotten a surprise visit from Garranzana de loco.

“What brings you to Meoche dark one?”

Tarzac asked Garranzana de loco.

“Jasmine.”

Answered Garranzana de loco

“Yes, you felt I had her captured in the dungeons.”

Tarzac said to the demon.

“Yes.”

Garranzana de loco answered

“What if the five armies try to take back Sod?”

In a worried voice asked Tarzac.

“Our army can handle them they are no threat. Just a little.”

The dark one answered.

“What are we to do with Jasmine?”

Tarzac questioned.

“Kill her.”

Garranzana de loco said.

“I agree and the Libra priestess something must be done.”

Tarzac said.

“They know the secret to destroy a Kuman.”

Garranzana de loco said.

“I have no problem killing Jasmine after all it was Jasmine who killed Spellbinder, but the rest of the Libra priestess.”

Tarzac reacted.

“They raised you.”

Garranzana de loco commented.

“Yes.”

Tarzac said.

“There are alternatives to stopping them.”

Garranzana de loco said with malevolence in his voice.

Let us bring Jasmine out of the dungeons, so that she may suffer a fate like Spellbinder.

After killing Jasmine the Bonded and Ethan, traveled to the Temple of Libra. They sailed up the coastline to Kreestonia to the Hosand Country to avoid going pass Estmar. As they stood in front of the Temple Tarzac stared at the Temple for minutes. Ethan looked at him and said.

“Here we are.”

“Yes the Temple of Libra.”

Tarzac stated with a little bit nervousness in his voice.

“This is where you were raised King Tarzac?”

Ethan asked.

“Yes, also this is where the Sagittarius originated.”

Tarzac said.

“Why did our race leave the Hosand Country? Its so beautiful– this grassland and fresh breezes from the ocean.”

Ethan looked at Tarzac and asked.

“I don’t know. This is were I used to play right outside of the doors watching Libras from Kinishi coming to this temple for advice. Wait here Ethan I and the dark one will be back.”

Tarzac said.

The Bonded walked into the Temple and was greeted by Cleo and Sage.

“Tarzac.”

Sage stated.

“Yes it is I.”

Tarzac replied.

“It’s been years– you have grown but not the way we wanted you to turn out.”

Cleo voiced to Tarzac.

“I did not come here for a reunion Cleo but…”

Tarzac angrily yelled out.

“We know why you have come. We raised you and how dare you come here with a Kuman and do what you are about to do.”

Sage commented in anger

“Yes you know the way to stop us… you or Polyganda can’t stop me now I am Garranzana de loco here me I am Garranzana de loco.”

“You killed our sister Jasmine.”

Cleo said and she started to cry.

“Yes I killed her like she killed my daughter.”

The dark one said.

“Do what you come to do with us.”

Sage said.

Tarzac then used a spell to turn all the Libra priestess in the temple to bronze statues. Tarzac and the dark one came out of the temple. They noticed Ethan gazing up to the sky.

“What is it Ethan?”

Tarzac asked.

“Look!”

Ethan then pointed up to the sky. The dark one and Tarzac looked up to the morning sky. Tarzac felt the fear of Garranzana de loco. The sky looked as if it was night outside.

“Polyganda. Come we must leave. The Bonded does not have the power to fight Polyganda.”

Garranzana de loco declared.

The Shinden Roudou and King Cor returned to Zirgini. The Shinden Roudou stood with a fearful expression as they all looked in the sky. The Shinden Roudou cried they felt that Jasmine had died and something had happened to the Libra priestess. The bonded five armies gazed at the Shinden Roudou amazed at the emotional Shinden Roudou. Usually the Shinden Roudou were always emotionless and so disciplined to only react when Jasmine commanded as if they were automatons. The five armies looked up to sky to see the Hosand Country’s atmosphere. The Shinden Roudou fell on their knees and yelled out

“Shi Tablo.”

“What is the Shi Tablo?”

King Cor interrogated.

“Shi Tablo is coming we can feel it—the Libra priestess and Jasmine are dead.”

One Shinden Roudou yelled out .

“The wrath of Polyganda is coming.”

Another Shinden Roudou screamed.

“How do you know?”

King Cor asked.

“Just look up to sky King Cor.”

A Shinden Roudou said anxiously.

“Let us all go to the temple of Libra –so we may show you.”

Shinden Roudou commanded.

In the Realm of Scorpio

The Scorpio looked in awe coming out a black storm cloud was the leader of the prophecy of the Shi Tablo the Libra from the North. A Libra male that looked like the Shinden Roudou unlike the Shinden Roudou he wore armor. (Armor was unknown to the Zodiacs.) His armor was silver, also he wore an auburn gauntlet. He carried four golden swords on his back. He rode the wind like a horse—he rode to the direction of the Hosand Country. Laced with silver armor that covered his body arose out of Opricorn the Libra from the South. He rode the wind towards the Hosand Country. Then there was a man with a black beard he too had armor but this armor was brown. He was the Libra from the East He came from regions to the east unknown to the civilized world he also rode the wind. Finally their was a bald man his knuckles very hairy. He held an pole ax(unknown to the Zodiac World) on his right hand, and on his his left hand he held a silver scale he was the Libra from the West who too went into the direction of the Hosand Country riding the wind. The Libras from the Four Ends of the Zodiac World met in front of the temple of Libra.

“Brothers here we are.”

Libra from the North stated to the other Libra men.

“Here to seek vengeance for Polyganda.”

The Libra from the East responded.

“We must wait here for our allies. The Libra from the North End are anxious of our arrival.”

The Libra from the South commanded.

“Saddened.”

The Libra from the East said with his head down.

“But if we are here it must be.”

The Libra from the North said.

The five armies convinced to what the Shinden Roudou believed followed the Shinden Roudou to the Temple of Libra aghast at what they seen.

“Are they Shinden Roudou ?”

King Cor asked.

“No they are the Shi Tablo.”

A Shinden Roudou said.

“No Shinden Roudou brother the Shi Tablo is just a holy book with prophecies we are the Libra from the Four End.”

The Libra from the West responded.

“So the Libra priestess and Jasmine are dead?”

A Shinden Roudou warrior questioned.

“Look in the Temple for yourselves to see what the monster Tarzac has done.”

The Libra from the South angrily suggested.

“We can’t look.”

A Shinden Roudou cried out.

“I will look.”

King Cor then went into the temple looked around and was appalling by the site. He came out of the temple with tears in eyes, and said

“He turned them to bronze statues.”

Then the Shinden Roudou wept. Minutes later still curious about these new Libra men.

Kai asked a question.

“What is that material you wear?”

“It is armor brave Kai.”

The South Libra answered.

“You know my name?”

Kai asked.

“Yes these scales are my link to Polyganda like the scales in there are were the link to the priestesses. I am the Libra from the South. These are the Libras from the East, West, and North.”

“Well need this armor for the coming battle.”

The Libra from the East stated.

“I don’t understand how did you appear where did you come from?”

“Its Simple Jambea. Frozen at the four corners of the world in the beginning of time unleashed if ever something happens to the priestess.”

“We are Polyganda’s wrath.”

The North End Libra said. When he spoke he spoke with such seriousness with no emotion in his voice.

“So Polyganda does exist. “

Helep stated.

“Yes Gemini Polyganda truly exists.”

The Libra from the West stated. He was soft-spoken and always sincere when he spoke.

“We must gather the remaining Virgo in Zirgini—the fight for Sod begins tonight.”

The Libra from the North commanded.

The armies marched in confidence to Sod. They felt an assurance with these four new allies. In the past, they were terrified to fight the Bonded.

“Besides our pity differences Ieta it is good to get a break from forging weapons.”

“Yes, Kai The Geminis is a great help in forging weapons showing the Forgers how to weld steal swords.”

“Steal is more effective in killing than bronze swords.”

Ieta declared.

“I never mentioned anything between the dispute between Sanoons and Forgers but I’m sorry.”

Kai said in remorse.

“I am sorry too…were sisters and a bigger enemy is ahead of us than campaigning for leadership.”

Ieta said.

Then from a distance someone shouted out Kai’s name in the crowd of armies.

“Ieta whose calling my name?”

Kai asked.

“I can not see in the crowd of six armies.”

Ieta answered.

“Wait it is Sajol, Delzia, and Jambea!”

Kai shouted out.

“Hello sisters. Can you believe these Four End Libra you think they can stop the Bonded.

Sajol said.

“I don’t know Sajol but we have to try.”

Kai commented.

“We can’t stay in Zirgini forever.”

Ieta declared.

“They ride the wind and their weapons.”

Jambea expressed in excitement.

“They are indeed impressive.”

Delzia said.

Six armies advanced into Sod. Tarzac and Garranzana de loco knew that Polyganda’s wrath the Libra from the Four End would track them down wherever they would go. The Bonded ‘s army was strong in Sod, so the Bonded stood their ground in Sod. The Sagittarius (Voshow), the Grandi Phi from Che, Piedra, and the Aquarius all representatives of the Bonded charged the six armies in battle. The Bonded was terrified at the skill of the Four End Libra. The Four End Libra killed ten soldiers in a minute time. Spears from the Aquarius could not harm these Four End Libra because of the armor they wore. Grooks just stracthed their armor and the Peitra ‘s savage carnivorous jaws and daggers could not harm them. They had great strength they would snap the necks of the charging Peitra. The Four End Libra would chop off the heads of the Aquarius warrior women every Aquarius woman was told that their death would be the same as Jasmine the Enforcer. This was for Rachael’s sin for bringing Jasmine to the Bondeed. Every Sagittarius was set on fire by the Libra men’s magic. Tarzac/ Garranzana de loco used their soldiers’ as shields as did Hodu Khan they did not want to get close to the Four End Libra. Even with the Geminis’ help the six armies improved from the last time the armies fought the Bonded in Sod. The steal swords could pierce Grandi Phi’s skin the Gemini and us Virgo were great swordmens.

In a year the six armies had grown in size. Caoet had sent more Geminis to help aide the war. Soon after, Sod had been stripped from King Tarzac , but the castle and the Za crystal remained standing . The prisoners of Sod were dead they died of starvation their captors did not feed them. Darkness still filled the skies of Sod. During the year long war Tarzac and Garranzana de loco fled they only fought for a month in Sod the Bonded’s number were decreasing rapidly. I think we were fueled by anger for Jasmine and the Libra priestess. We just had enough of Tarzac’s tyranncy. In months Umtekka was striped too from the hands of the Bonded, and the Leos renamed it the unnamed land. We fought fierce and with great strategy Four End Libra were in front of the army behind them were the Leos they were fast and led by Cor they devoured the Aquarius and Sagittarius. The Gemini and us focused on the Grandi Phi. The Shinden Roudou specialized in killing Sagittarius. The Zomen killed Peitra.

During the following years Tarzac and Garranana de loco moved to Meoche. Somehow the Doom found Tarzac again. The Doom magically appeared in Tarzac’s corridors of the castle while the dark one was with him.

“Tarzac we found you.”

“What brings you here –how did you find me Serius?”

“Remember we smell the scent of bloodshed. You hold the Za crystal our god’s power. So we will follow the holder of the dark power.”

Serius explained to Tarzac.

“We can use the Doom”

The dark one commented.

“We know against the six armies.”

Serius spoke.

“No not them. We plan to campaign to go to the Southern hemisphere”

Garranzana de loco said.

“Tish and Opricron?”

Serius asked.

“Yes. We need an army to defeat the Cancer and Capricorn.”

Garranzana de loco went on to say.

“Fine, but would you do a favor for the Doom.”

“What is that?”

Garranzana de loco questioned.

“Help us take over the Realm of Scorpio we want revenge on the one who exiled us—the Ultimate.”

Serius said.

“The Ultimate is very powerful we can only attack him at our full power. But we will attack him for this is your payment for helping. After all we planned on taking over the entire Zodiac World.”

The dark one stated.

“I should go with the Doom to look for the ground opals.”

“No Tarzac I will go.”

“Kumans used to rule Tish until Galloc Muh?”

Tarzac asked.

“Yes, you have my thoughts now.”

The dark one replied.

The Doom was at war with the Capricorn in Opricorn. The Capricorn unlike the Capricorn in Sod had great magical powers they could invoke the weather to destroy their enemies at war. They could fly giving them a tactical advantage over the Doom. They would hold stones with their hooves and drop them on top of the Doom. The Cancer in Tish were a challenge for the Doom The Doom could not use their Scorpion tails onto the Cancers’ hard body shell. The Cancer crushed the bodies of the Doom with their claws. The Doom and the dark one used black magic against them fire balls cinged their bodies.

During this time, Jambea made the scatter box a flying box made of bronze that had scrolls in it contact was made through the Gemini, Moshac, and Marius. Jambea set the final plans for the end of Tarzac’s reign. She sent a letter stating to Marius her plans.

During the six armies rebellion as they took back two of their lands Queen Rachael stayed in Meoche with Tarzac. They had gotten even closer in their affections for one another. Although the Aquarius fought the six armies for a year she did not lead them. She thought it would be safe for their Queen to stay in a stronghold city so nothing could happen to her. Rachael stood in Tarzac’s corridors.

“Yec has been without a king in years.”

Queen Rachael said as she rubbed the shoulders of Tarzac.

“Nome erchu has been with out a Queen. That is the price you pay when you are trying to make an empire.”

Tarzac responded as he turned around and grabbed the waist of Rachael.

“You are my King and my husband although you have a wife.”

Queen Rachael spoke as she kissed Tarzac ‘s lips.

“My wife. I haven’t seen her in such a long time. I wish you were my wife your beauty is immaculate. Your warrior spirit matches mine.”

Tarzac said to Queen Rachael.

“What are we to do with the Gemini?”

Rachael asked as Tarzac still held her.

“The soldiers from Yec shall invade them this way they can not send more troops to aide the six armies–we will take back the lands we conquered. As we speak they sail to Duce.”

Tarzac answered.

Caoet looked up in the sky. Storm clouds blackened he knew from soothsayers that Tarzac’s army was coming to attack. He and his Gemini army were ready for the opposing forces from Yec. Jambea told Caoet through the scatter box of the final plan. Moshac and Marius were on their way from Bismet to Meoche. Marius led his civilized Piedra in a revolt attempt only Moshac could get close enough to kill Tarzac. If this did not work then more years of bloodshed would be upon the six armies soon to be seven or eight because now the Cancer was involved and soon the Scorpio making this a Twelve Zodiac War.

Queen Rachael came out of the corridors of Tarzac satisfied. She was surprised to see General Moshac coming towards the castle and there was a revolt of Piedra led by Marius also the six armies where in the city fighting the Bonded’s soldiers.

“What is going on Moshac?”

Queen Rachael asked she looked puzzled.

“A revolt.”

Moshac answered.

“The Piedra are revolting?”

Rachael questioned. She knew much about the Petra and knew they were loyal.

“Yes, a faction of them quite unusual isn’t it.”

Moshac commented.

“I must warn Tarzac!”

Queen Rachael exclaimed.

“NO!”

Moshac shouted out.

“What do you mean?”

Rachael questioned. Queen Rachael looked at Moshac in a peculiar manner. He then grabbed her arm she looked in fright then Moshac stabbed her with a grook in her chest. She fell down dead to the ground. He took some rags from his satchel and wiped off the blood. Moshac then made his way up to Tarzac’s castle corridor. A few feet away from the doors of Tarzac’s corridor stood Ethan. The castle was dark so Ethan could not see Moshac in the shadows. Moshac fired his bow and arrow into the skull of Ethan and Ethan fell dead. Moshac then walked into the room of Tarzac.

“Moshac.”

King Tarzac said surprised to see him.

“Yes, King Tarzac it is I.”

Moshac declared.

“Why are you not in Bismet?”

Tarzac inquired.

“I’ve come to get my next assignment.”

Moshac answered.

“Close to my wife probably.”

Tarzac said under his breath.

“Excuse me King?”

Moshac questioned.

Moshac got a little nervous his heart raced he thought that Tarzac knew what he had done and what he was going to do.

“I hear things.”

Tarzac said.

“No my King you are mistaken.”

Moshac spoke.

“What is the ruckus outside?”

Tarzac questioned.

“Marius and the Piedra from Bismet are revolting it seems that they and the six armies have allied with him because the six armies are here.”

Moshac explained.

“I asked Animosity and Mahogany what was the problem with Marius in the shores of Apollem they told me nothing was wrong. I shall have their heads. Let me get my grook.”

Tarzac spoke. Tarzac turned around and Moshac stabbed him with a grook in his head instantly Tarzac fell dead. In Tish Garranzana de loco screamed in anger the bond had been broken. Garranzana de loco left Tish not to be found without Garranzana de loco powers the Cancer defeated the Doom.

In Duce, the Gemini defeated the small band of soldiers coming from Yec, as Moshac left the castle Marius knew what Moshac had done and shouted out:

“Supporters of Tarzac fight us no more for your King Tarzac is dead and Queen Rachael.”

All the armies stopped fighting and looked at Moshac.

“It is true behold the head of Tarzac.”

Moshac said as he held up Tarzac’s head.

“I give you the killer of tyrants Moshac the Messiah.”

Marius shouted out to the armies. Moshac walked over to Marius through the crowded army. The armies parted to let Moshac through they were all stunted that Tarzac had been killed they stared at Moshac in amazment. The Libras were right the only ally the six armies needed was Moshac. The armies stopped fighting as they gazed at Moshac with the blood of Tarzac on his chest.

“Marius its like he wanted to die he could of killed me but he hesitated he turned around like he was telling me get it over with.”

“Let us crush this city so that the memory of the monster Tarzac will be no more. Virgo collect the opals of Tarzac then we will destroy this cursed city.”

The Four End Libra said. We the guild then collected all twelve opals. The Four End Libra cast a tornado onto the castle of Tarzac. The rest of the six armies and we cheered. The Bonded army spell was broken the portion of Tarzac’s army that was under his mind control left the city ashamed and the others left disappointed that their master Tarzac had died. This was not the end of the Zodiac World War but just the beginning from these events there would be more bloodshed carried on by our offspring which we will call all these events the 12 Zodiac War. Since there are no more Libra priestess. The guild has decided to write the worlds events as did the Libra and this has been the first volumes of events after the Libra priestess bronze imprisonment.
