In the Eastern Hemisphere was Appolem, the country were Aries lived.
Jasmine sailed to the shore of Appolem in a great fog, and a giant warship appeared out of the
foggy mist. Aries warriors hurled spears at Jasmine from the deck of their warship. To dodge
the spears, Jasmine leaped off her boat into the sea. As she jumped off her boat a spear being
thrown by an Aries stabbed her in the shoulder. The spear tip was saturated in poison resulting
in Jasmine to become unconscious. The Aries pitched a net onto her from their warship(50ft
long –50ft wide) and reeled her onto the Aries’ warship. The Aries on the ship then sailed to the
shore of Appolem. The Aries took her to be questioned by a high priest in the jungle of Wattibe.
Two Aries warriors escorted Jasmine to the high priest Ukeem. No one tended to Jasmine’s
shoulder wound. The scorching heat of the Wattibe jungle made Jasmine ill and faint. Taj
carried her to the high priest.
The high priest Ukeem lived in a hut. High priest Ukeem wore a robe made of red and blue bird
feathers. The guards brought Jasmine to high priest Ukeem. Ukeem stood outside of his hut
holding a blue opal. High priest Ukeem stood 7feet tall his gray body frail, and his ram face
covered with wrinkles. Ukeem stared at Jasmine. With an authority in his voice he said
“You can let this human go Taj and Zu. She is no Gemini, nor is she a threat of the Aries”
The two soldiers replied.
“Yes, your holiness.”
Taj and Zu then turned into their primitive state the ram and ran into the jungle.
All Aries respected High Priest Ukeem. They also feared Ukeem because the power he
possesses. Ukeem had the power to rule Appolem but appointed someone else to rule the
country. High priest Ukeem was very influential in Appolem. High Priest Ukeem tended to
Jasmine’s shoulder; after he finished tending to her wound she thanked him…
“ Thank you.”
Jasmine said.
“You are welcomed! You are a Libra, am I right?”
Ukeem asked.
“Yes. How did you know that I was a Libra?”
Jasmine asked.
“The Aries once were visited by a Libra before, in the Rage Age. This Libra was not here
diplomatically like I sense you are. She was here to destroy our old way of life. Her name was
Tayillah and I knew her well.”
Ukeem mentioned.
“So you knew my predecessor and at the time of the Za uprising? I hope you hold no ill
thoughts or attentions the destruction of your civilization was necessary”
Jasmine went on to say.
“Of Course. I understand but it was a sad time. The Rage Age was malicious for the whole
Zodiac World.”
Spoke Ukeem.
“ Amazing! You are alive after all this time. The Rage Age was a thousand years ago.”
Jasmine expressed in excitement.
“Yes. Well I like others have found secrets to sustain longevity. Young Enforcer I know why you
have come.”
Ukeem said.
“How do you know that?”
Jasmine asked and pinch of seriousness entered her facial expression.
“This blue opal I hold in my hand is very powerful and it gives me powers to see the future and
gives me other abilities. You have come to stop another evil like Za is that correct?”
Ukeem said.
“Something like that. I have come to warn the Aries of a coming evil. I do not know what the evil
is or where it is going to come from but I have come to warn you to prepare yourself for Great
War.”
Jasmine replied.
“The ball says it is half Zodiac and half Kuman. Do you know the legends of the dark one or the
dragon snake and the war against Polyganda?”
Ukeem asked.
“No.”
Said Jasmine. Surprised at all the things that the high priest knew.
“There was a war against the entity from Kuman (the dark one; or dragon snake) and
Polyganda. The Kuman demon unleashed his army onto the Zodiac World to conquer it.
Polyganda and the Fa Sha destroyed the Kuman demon’s army. Polyganda sealed up the
dimensional gates from which the Kumans came, as well as the rest of the dimensional gates
opened. Only a few Kumans and other creatures were able to come through the dimensional
gates before it sealed. Polyganda then drained the power of the Kuman demon into different
colored opals actually twelve for the entire Zodiac to have. The opals were to powerful for most
Zodiacs to handle so the twelve opals were hidden from the Kuman demon. Although
Polyganda made the opals so that the dark one could not touch them, so that the dark one
could never retrieve his full power. The Kuman demon pledged that he would get revenge on
Polyganda. Legend also states that his daughter a prophet for the crocodile men foreseen a
revelation. A Zodiac would say the dark ones name and would merge with the demon. This
would give the Kuman demon, power to obtain the twelve opals, and regain his power so that
he may defeat Polyganda and destroy the twelve Zodiacs and conquer the Zodiac World.”
Explained High priest Ukeem
”So high priest Ukeem, it seems that you are suggesting the coming evil has something to do
with that myth.”
Jasmine voiced curiously.
“A legend not a myth and I foresee the legend to come true a coming evil that is half Zodiac and
half Kuman plaguing the world, and it probably has to do with that evil that you talk about.”
Ukeem uttered out.
“How do you know all of this high priest Ukeem? The Libra priestesses do not even have this in
the scroll library. That library has every mystical and physical event that ever happened in the
centuries?”
Jasmine questioned.
“Well Jasmine, sometimes Polyganda might not want the priestess to know everything. I myself
have lived a long time, and I know many things. The powers I possess I cannot explain. If you do
not believe me then that is all right. If there is danger of a coming evil to Appolem then we must
go to High King Jaca Mul and tell him about it.”
Ukeem said with a solemn look on his face.
“Its not that I don’t believe you it is …or seems to far fetched. Let us go to the King.”
Jasmine refered.
Four days passed : Jasmine was taken to the High King Jaca Mul accompanied by high priest
Ukeem. The High King’s palace was made out of solid marble that seemed to come out of the
top of the Chander Mountain. Jasmine alongside the high priest Ukeem had no trouble entering
the palace. Jasmine and Ukeem were informed that the High King was residing in his throne
room. They entered the throne room that was heavily guarded by Aries warriors male and
female. The throne room was all marble inside, and the ceiling was a glass dome. Water
fountains circled the room. The High King was 6ft’7inches and 235pds with a gray complexion.
The High King sat on his throne wearing nothing but a silk robe that was opened revealing his
body. Jasmine thought it to be distasteful.
“High priest Ukeem what brings you so far from the Wattibe jungle to the Chander Mountain?”
Asked High King Jaca Mul as he seen Jasmine and Ukeem enter the throne room.
“I have come along with Jasmine the Libra Enforcer. She has come to tell the Aries some bad
news.”
Ukeem obedient answered.
“Yes, Hello High King Jaca Mul. I am Jasmine the Libra Enforcer and I am on a mission for
Polyganda and the Fa Sha. They have told me to come to Appolem to warn you and your people
of a coming evil. The message is to prepare yourself for Great War.”
High King Jaca Mul became angered; Jasmine could see his facial expression. Then the High King
spoke.
“Jasmine. Not long ago our neighboring country Duce filled with Gemini tried to threaten our
country. They invaded us a few times but remained unsuccessful. Never will we be caught
surprised and never shall this country be invaded again. If you do not know the coming evil
please Libra priestess could you go to the scales and ask who is this evil force so that the Aries
may crush the threat because the Aries will never be invaded again. “
“I understand your anger High King Jaca Mul. I think it is a good idea to ask the scales what the
coming evil is so that the Aries and myself can stop this evil. I shall go to the Temple of the Libra
and ask the scales and return here to tell you.”
Jasmine diplomatically voiced.
“Thank you Jasmine.”
Said high priest Ukeem.
“Yes thank you Jasmine. You and High Priest Ukeem stay here at the palace until you are ready
to leave. Jasmine, I will give you a boat and rations so that you may return home.”
Stated High King Jaca Mul
Jasmine and Ukeem stayed in the palace for two days until they were well rested to return to
the Wattibe jungle. When they returned to the Wattibe jungle, Ukeem arranged some Aries to
escort Jasmine to the shore of Appolem.
The Taurus is talking bulls that inhabited in the land of Kreestonia and Caskatta. Those
countries were located south of the Western Hemisphere. Jasmine’s plan when reaching
Kreestonia and Caskatta was to warn the Taurus of the coming evil and then she was planning
to return to the Temple of Libra to ask the scales what or who was the coming evil. It took
Jasmine a year to get from Appolem, which is in the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western
Hemisphere.
Jasmine reached the peninsula country of Kreestonia in a year time. Kreestonia’s beach was the
only way a boat could land in the Western Hemisphere. The rest of the Western Hemisphere
coastline was mountainous. Caskatta was a neighboring country of Kreestonia. Jasmine
boarded off her boat and walked on the beach, and she felt an evil presence that made her
body cold. Jasmine had smelt a stench in the air of rotten flesh. Hoards of flies were in the air.
Jasmine walked further in the country through the grasslands stampedes of Taurus’ ran passed
Jasmine.
“What is going on?”
Jasmine yelled out to the stampeding Taurus. A Taurus male had stopped and said…
“The Piedra, are here! We must flee because they are hunting us down.”
Then the Taurus ran to catch up with the rest of his herd that ran away.
“Piedra race. I hate the Piedra race!”
Jasmine expressed. Jasmine had reached for the Umtis strapped to her back and pulled it out of
the leather holder that held it . Jasmine knew when the Piedra race was around peace was
never on their minds. Jasmine walked a mile and came to the cause of the stench in the air. An
onslaught of dead Taurus lay on the ground. The dead Taurus’s head were missing and some
dead Taurus had their stomachs eaten out. She had gotten nausea by the sight. Jasmine walked
further into the onslaught, and seen fifteen Piedra accompanied by the vilest of Piedra who was
the Piedra General Kings Mahogany and Animosity. Mahogany and Animosity was not like other
Piedra their skin color was odd. Piedra’s complexion is green. Mahogany’s complexion was
brown and Animosity was an albino Piedra. The two generals were part of Spellbinder’s army.
Mahogany and Animosity were not the worst of her troubles Spellbinder or La Luz was alive
and with the fifteen Piedra. The Piedra by massacring the Taurus it was the Piedras way of
showing respect for their greatest prophet Spellbinder.
Jasmine had seen the Piedra and Spellbinder and decided to hide behind a nearby bush so that
they would not see her. Jasmine thought of what high priest Ukeem had said in Appolem about
the Aries legend. Ukeem mentioned daughter of a Kuman demon who is a prophet of the
crocodile race. Ukeem was talking about Spellbinder. Spellbinder is said to be the daughter of a
Kuman and she is also a prophet of the Piedra who are crocodile men. She then thought that
what Ukeem said might be true.
Jasmine had a vow that was to stop all evil. Jasmine never faced an evil force like Spellbinder
before, except the Scorpio, Arboreal the Enchantress.
Jasmine the Libra Enforcer hunted Arboreal to Za temple ruins in Appolem. Jasmine’s mission
at that time was to stop Arboreal from finding and attaching the Crystal Jade to her body. Once
the crystal Jade was attached on a body it could never be taken off. Arboreal was a terrorist and
murderer. Arboreal would be a terrible threat to the Zodiac World if she possessed the Crystal
Jade. Jasmine was minutes late to stop Arboreal from attaching the Crystal Jade to her torso.
Arboreal attached it just below her breasts. Arboreal walked out of the temple ruins to see
Jasmine waiting for her outside the temple ruin. Shocked and frightened Arboreal stood
emotionalist. Jasmine stroked her sword at Arboreal’s face. Arboreal blocked the striking sword
with her arms. The blade cut Arboreal’s arm 3inches deep. Arboreal then stroked Jasmine with
her scorpion tail in the stomach. Then the two engaged in a deadly showdown. Jasmine had
won the showdown nearly killing Arboreal. Jasmine used a healing spell to cure Arboreal. After
that Arboreal promised to serve Jasmine for life because Jasmine spared her life. Jasmine sent
Arboreal to Estmar the land of restless souls to be their caretaker. That was Arboreal’s penance
or prison sentence for sending many souls to Estmar. Many years later, Spellbinder disobeyed
the law of Estmar, which was whoever responsible for sending restless souls to Estmar could
never enter the land. Spellbinder knew this rule, so, was killed by Arboreal.
In the present Jasmine thought if Arboreal could kill Spellbinder so could Jasmine. Jasmine’s
heart raced almost out of her chest. Jasmine was very nervous. She prayed to Polyganda for
strength and courage to defeat Spellbinder and the Piedra. Jasmine jumped out of the bush,
and confronted the evil forces.
“Spellbinder I have come to take you back to Estmar!”
Confidently stated Jasmine.
Spellbinder laughed and then the fifteen Piedra circled around Jasmine. The Piedra then
attacked Jasmine with copper daggers and their razor sharp teeth. Jasmine swiftly attacked
them back. After minutes of fighting no Piedra lived except Mahogany and Animosity; Jasmine
had killed the rest. Jasmine sliced off Animosity’s left hand with her golden sword. Frightened of
dying, the two General Kings ran away to leave their greatest prophet alone to face Jasmine.
Jasmine had severe injuries to her shoulder, back, and claw marks covered her body. Her
clothing was torn from fighting. Jasmine used a healing spell to heal herself, but the magic was
not enough to cure all of her wounds. Jasmine fearlessly looked Spellbinder in her face.
Spellbinder was intimidated. Jasmine reached for Spellbinder’s veil and tugged it so that
Spellbinder could be pulled towards Jasmine. Jasmine held Spellbinder’s veil with a tight grip.
Spellbinder could not get away. Jasmine punched Spellbinder in her face then holding
Spellbinder’s veil so that she could not move Jasmine beheaded the Spellbinder so that her soul
would not leave her body. Jasmine then warned the Taurus of the coming evil and soon after
brought Spellbinder’s body back to Estmar.
Jasmine journeyed home to the Temple of Libra, which took her three weeks. As she entered
the Temple of Libra Jasmine was welcomed by her many priestess sisters. Jasmine had then
entered the anointed pool chamber there she got undressed and emerged in the pool of oil to
heal all of her wounds that the Piedra had inflicted on her body in Kreestonia. Soon after she
got dressed and walked into the chamber of scales. This is where the holy scales reside where
the Libra priestesses are connected with Polyganda through the scales. A stone altar was
beside the golden scales. On top of the altar laid a cooper bowl. Inside the cooper bowl was
holy sand. Jasmine picked up some sand then placed it onto the scales. She kneeled in front of
the scales, and bowed her head in reverence.
“Oh holy scales tell me who is the evil threat to the world and what race is responsible?”
Asked Jasmine. The scales where made by Polyganda to answer any question that the Libra
priestess wanted to know. The knowledge came from Polyganda. The scales would answer a
question telepathically to the Libra priestess.
The scales spoke in Jasmine’s mind and said…
“The King from Yec in the Western Hemisphere his name is Tarzac and he is Sagittarius.”
“Tarzac? Is that the Sagittarius that Sister Cleo took in the temple to raise oh holy scales?”
Asked Jasmine.
“Yes.”
Replied the scales.
“How did he get that way?”
Asked Jasmine.
“He stated a Kuman’s name who is often referred to as the dark one, or dragon snake. Jasmine
listen your mission is simply to warn the Zodiacs of his coming. Polyganda forbids that you try
to stop him or you will die.”
Stated the scales.
Jasmine had then got her knees. She placed the sand from the scales back into the copper
bowl. Jasmine was upset that she could not accomplish her vows to protect and serve all from
evil. Jasmine could not accept what the scales told her. Jasmine was angry she felt that she
should try to stop Tarzac even if it meant her losing her life.
Jasmine had spent time with her sisters the Libra priestesses for two weeks. Jasmine was
always on missions to stop evil rarely lived in the temple like the other priestesses. After two
weeks, Jasmine left the temple to travel back to Appolem. She would now give back word to the
Aries who was the evil threat. Jasmine never mentioned Tarzac being a threat to the world to
Sister Cleo, who had raised Tarzac, but she discussed it with the other Libra in the temple, and
they too did not tell Cleo.
A year passed :Jasmine traveled back to Apollem. In Apollem Jasmine told High King Jaca Mul
what the scales had told her. High King Jaca Mul wanted to stop Tarzac before he became a
threat to his kingdom. Jasmine thought it to be a good idea so she gave High King Jaca Mul
directions to Yec. Jasmine then left Appolem. High King Jaca Mul had sent troops in warships to
destroy Tarzac before he became a threat to Appolem.

Chapter 6
The Next Year : the dark one traveled from Che to Yec. The dark one had made himself invisible
to the Sagittarius and the Aquarius in Yec only Tarzac could see the dark one. The dark one
walked causally into Tarzac’s personal corridors. Tarzac’s personal corridors were a mile long on
top of the 35feet high-rise castle. The personal corridors had several sections to it. Tarzac stood
in a section of the corridor aggravated at the fact that the dark one was back in his life as the
dark one appeared to him.
“I have come to give you something of importance. Tarzac I hold this opal in my hand – I must
tell you that this is called a ground opal it holds a source of my power in it. It is a great weapon
that will increase your magic.”
Garranzana de loco spoke.
“How will I know how to use this?”
Tarzac inquired.
“By instinct now take this and tell no one of its existence and keep it hidden. Make a secret
chamber for this ground opal not far from your personnel corridors in the castle.”
Garranzana de loco commanded.
“O.K.”
Tarzac said really uncertain on how to make of this.
Tarzac took this gift and did what the dark one told of him. Tarzac did not doubt or question
what Garranzana de loco told him. The dark one had then left the city.
The citizens of Yec had gotten a since of patriotism because of the Overcrowding of Yec by the
Aquarius, it made them aware that although they were all from different tribes they were one
species, and Yec was a Sagittarius city not for other species. Now, The diverse tribes were not as
hostile to one another.
The same day the dark one came Queen Rachael came to Tarzac at the castle to speak with
him; soon after the dark one left the castle in secret.
“King Tarzac the Aquarius feel the hostile environment here.”
Queen Rachael said.
“Queen Rachael you must understand that no other race except Sagittarius were allowed in Yec,
before now; Aquarius being here makes my people uncomfortable. The Aquarius Overcrowd
the city. “
Tarzac diplomatically said.
“We the Aquarius are in your debt for freeing us. Do you want us to leave the city?”
Rachael mentioned.
“No. I will make it possible for the Aquarius to have their own town.”
Tarzac suggested.
“You are so generous King Tarzac. The gods smile down on you.”
Queen Rachael delightful of what King Tarzac responded.
“Thank you.”
Tarzac said.
“ Queen Illayah I heard she is about to conceive your child soon?”
Queen Rachael asked.
“Yes it will be soon. I’m a little nervous .”
Tarzac commented.
“Excited you shall be, before I leave I say to you may the gods bless your family!”
Queen Rachael said.
“Thank you. I will discuss later future plans of constructing the Aquarius a town.”
Tarzac declared.
“Alright.”
Queen Rachael said then left the castle.
In Later weeks Tarzac had made it possible for the Aquarius to have there own town, which was
named Nome erchu. The Sagittarius helped built a village for the Aquarius miles away from the
Fug tribe. The Fug tribe was a tribe that lived outside of the wall of Yec. Tarzac had made a
secret chamber within the castle there in the secret chamber he kept the ground opal hidden
also everyday he would go into the secret chamber practicing/harnessing its power.
Nine Days later after the construction of Nome erchu, Queen Illayah had gave birth to a male
Sagittarius. Tarzac and Illayah named the child Tarzac Simat. Tarzac meant the new tradition
and Simat meant the new and pure king.
A year ago since Jasmine came to Appolem King Jaca Mul sent troops to Yec to abolish Tarzac so
he would not be a threat to the world. The Aries landed at Yec’s seaport at sunset. The Aries
warriors marched off their warships quickly and quietly. A VoShow detected the Aries invaders
and blew a horn to tell other VoShow that there was danger. An Aries warrior had then threw a
spear into the VoShow soldier’s chest killing him. Soon after, ten more Sagittarius soldiers or
VoShow came trotting down the dirt roads of Yec. The ten Sagittarius soldiers also witnessed
the Aries. One Sagittarius soldier was sent to go to the castle to warn the other soldiers and the
remaining nine soldiers remained to fight the Aries. The nine soldiers were killed because there
were to many Aries to fight off.
Tarzac stood once again in his corridors now with his queen and his newborn mare child happy.
A soldier by the name of Botec raced into his corridors passing his royal bodyguard Ethan a
Tarlic warrior that stood at the corridor’s entrance. Ethan tried to grab Botec from rushing
through the door but Botec was to fast. Ethan followed him as he entered Tarzac’s corridors.
Botec yelled out…
“King Tarzac the city is being invaded by foreign invaders!”
“What?”
Tarzac questioned.
“Giant creatures have come into the city they killed a few Voshow.”
Botec spoke frantically.
“Find out who these invaders are also send platoons of Voshow to fight off these invaders!
Assemble all Voshow and tell them to met me outside of the castle entrance quickly.”
Demanded King Tarzac.
“Yes King Tarzac.”
Botec responded.
Botec called for all the Voshow to meet King Tarzac outside. Tarzac then sent platoons of
VoShow to fight off the Aries away from the Sagittarius homes as well as the castle. Tarzac then
evacuated the citizens, Queen Illayah, and Tarzac Simat to the boundary of Yec where the
Aquarius villages rested. The Aquarius set up shelters for the Sagittarius citizens, and
volunteered them selves to join the VoShow. Ardax was in charge of evacuating the city.
Moshac was in charge of leading the front against the Aries. Moshac thought Tarzac was
“playing favorites”. Ardax was Tarzac’s closest friend. Tarzac sent Ardax to do easy missions
where Moshac was sent to do dangerous missions. Tarzac stayed in the castle and used the
castle as a fort.
The Sagittarius fought off the first attack of the Aries, but the second attack was too much. The
Aries pushed the Sagittarius from the seaport back to the castle a few mile radius. The Aries
were stronger and harder to kill because of their height. The only advantages of the Sagittarius
were their speed. Tarzac had protected the castle by invoking a ball of fire around the castle.
The ground opal had enhanced Tarzac’s magic.
Three weeks had passed since the invasion of the Aries in Yec. The Aries could not ransack the
castle because of Tarzac’s enchantment on the castle. The Sagittarius had hundreds of
casualties. The VoShow were decreasing in numbers. The Aries tore down the Sagittarius
homes and used them as forts and bunkers for the Aries warriors. Tarzac knew that he was
going to have to get reinforcements. Tarzac’s magic with the help of the ground opal helped kill
some Aries and protect the castle but the number of Aries warriors was impeccably large.
Ardax and Tarzac stood inside the protected castle looking outside towards the war torn city.
“Ardax I have already sent out word with Queen Rachael asking her to send Aquarius soldiers to
help.”
Tarzac said.
“You know that is not enough for these Aries invaders are numerous. You could ask the Sultan
Kali Amed from the Desert City. For the past weeks you have been discusses peace treaties and
the Sagittarius from the Desert City have been trading with the Sagittarius from Yec for the past
weeks. “
Ardax responded.
“Yes. Sultan Kali Amed he should be happy to help out his fellow Sagittarius. “
Tarzac spoke.
“The Desert City is always motivated by treasures.”
Ardax suggested.
“Ardax you shall go to the Desert City with Botec and his platoon. Take treasures of gold and
silver to help motivate the Sultan.”
Tarzac commanded.
“There is one thing –the Cesain Desert is populated with the gang of Scorpio that call
themselves the Doom. They are known as elite killers and thieves.”
Ardax let Tarzac know.
“You and your platoon are just going have to be extra cautious.”
Tarzac said.
“Yes Tarzac my friend.”
Ardax answered back.
Tarzac sent Ardax and a platoon to the Cesain Desert. Ardax and his platoon of VoShow carried
a shipment of gold and silver for the Sultan Kali Amed plus other trade objects. Ardax and his
platoon walked through the Cesain Desert. All their fears came true the Doom had emerged
from the desert sands and the VoShow had gotten into a fighting stance. There was only a
handful of the gang. There were thousands of Doom cult members consisting of a colony of
Scorpio men, women, and children. After the Doom emerged from the sand, a Doom member
known as Serius had spoke with a high pitch screechy voice.
“I am Serius. High Commander of the Doom. On days like this we usually kill Sagittarius carrying
all this booty and take it. We have not felt the pleasure of a kill in a long time and desire it. The
Doom does not want to kill you Sagittarius… no it is something else we desire. We smell the
scent of blood and war and want to join in the kill.”
“Yes, the Sagittarius of Yec are in a war with foreign invaders. Our journey is to the Desert City
to get help because we need allies for a war that we are in.”
Stated Ardax.
“If you seek allies then seek no more. The Doom will help and we desire no treasure for the
pleasure of the kill is a greater treasure.”
Serius told Ardax.
“Can we trust these Scorpio?”
Whispered a member of Ardax’s platoon to Ardax.
“I do not know.”
Replied Ardax then Ardax spoke out to Serius.
“Serius we will give back word to you, but first we must consult our King.”
“Very well. Send one of your soldiers back to ask your King for we our anxious to fight.
Serius demanded
“Very well. Botec go back to King Tarzac and give him the information as we go to the Desert
City, and notify Serius on what King Tarzac will say.”
General Ardax commanded.
“Very well. General Ardax.”
Botec responded and Botec went on his way to inform Tarzac of the news. Ardax and the rest
of the platoon went further into the Cesain Desert to the Desert City. When they seached the
Desert City General Ardax held meeting with Sultan Kali Amed. Sultan Kali Amed agreed to ally
with the Sagittarius of Yec because of the treasurers given to him. The Sultan gave General
Ardax a hundred and seventy soldiers to help. Tarzac had told Botec to tell Serius that the
Dooms’ help was well welcomed. Therefore, there were the Doom, Aquarius, and Sagittarius
from Yec and a few Desert City soldiers allied to defeat the Aries. Although, Tarzac had gotten
more soldiers the war still raged on for six more months. Even with more soldiers the Aries still
were powerful. The Aries were strong giants armed only with spears that ranged from 5 to
7feet long and weighted 50 to 90pds. The Doom were very helpful because of their malicious
vitality and black magic. The Doom was vicious and did not fear the Aries. The Dooms’ only joy
was to kill. The Doom alone out numbered the Aries warriors that High King Jaca Mul had sent
to Yec. Six months after the Doom entered the war the Aries gave up and retreated back to
Appolem. The Doom was the catalyst for the defeat of the Aries. The Doom and the Sagittarius
from the City returned back to the Cesain Desert.
The Yec citizens returned to Yec. The Aquarius and Sagittarius united build the ruins of Yec over
again. Within two years the Sagittarius of Yec had build Yec over. The Aquarius and Sagittarius
had multiplied in numbers. The city of Yec was built bigger than the original city. The Desert City
residents since the alliance frequently traveled to Yec for trade. The Doom were never heard
from again it was rumored they left the Cesain Desert after the conflict with the Aries.
In Appolem, Aries soldiers came back to Appolem a year later after their defeat. They traveled
from the shores to the Chander Mountains where the High King Jaca Mul resided in his marvel
castle build within the mountain.
“High King we have been defeated.”
Stated the defeated Aries soldiers
“Defeat! How could this be?”
Questioned the High King.
“ At first we had the upper hand but the threat to the world King Tarzac had magic… He had
allies… some of his allies had magic.”
Answered his army.
“I will send more Aries until the threat is gone.”
High King Jaca Mul threatened.
For a year High King Jaca Mul had thousands of his Aries warriors training for war. As Yec was
rebuild, High King Jaca Mul sent his Aries army back to Yec. The Sagittarius were puzzled on why
the Aries invaded them for the first and second time. The second Aries invasion of the Aries
advanced their invasion towards the Desert City, Nome erchu as well as Yec. The Aries wanted
their revenge on the Desert City, Nome erchu, and Yec. Due to the Aries invading the Desert
City more soldiers from the Desert City helped Yec. This conflict ended faster than the first
because The Sagittarius and Aquarius knew what to expect from their opponents. The second
conflict lasted for only six months as the first conflict lasted for a year. Once again the
Sagittarius and Aquarius defeated the Aries and the Aries fled back to Appolem. Once again the
Aries destroyed Yec as well as the Desert City, and Nome erchu. The Sagittarius and Aquarius
worked on rebuilding Yec, Nome erchu, and the Desert City.
The dark one had come back to Yec as it was being reconstructed after the second Aries
invasion. Garranzana de loco made himself visible to all Sagittarius in Yec in his human form.
The resentment Tarzac held for Garranzana de loco developed into a friendship due to the
bonding.
Illayah found Garranzana de loco to be curious and frightening as he came into the castle
alongside Tarzac
“Illayah I want you to meet an old friend of mine.”
Stated Tarzac as the dark one stood next to him.
“Hello your name is?”
Replied Illayah.
“He has no name.”
Replied Tarzac. With an emotionless expression the dark one looked at Queen Illayah and said
nothing. The dark one nodded his head in a hello gesture. Tarzac and the dark one walked
away from Queen Illayah into Tarzac’s own personnel corridor.
“Ethan you are dismissed for now.”
“Yes King Tarzac.”
Ethan said , Ethan was Tarzac’s royal bodyguard then left the personal corridors leaving Tarzac
and the dark one alone to have meeting. As Ethan left the corridors the dark one spoke.
“Tarzac I have come to help you get revenge on your foes the Aries.”
“How?”
Questioned Tarzac.
“By devising a plan to defeat them for good so that they can never bother you again. We will
invade their country and I know the location to their homeland called Appolem.”
Garranzana de loco answered.
As days passed Illayah thought to herself often who is this human with no name that stays in
the castle. Illayah found it peculiar that Tarzac never mentioned this human friend before.
Illayah hated the change in Tarzac—he became very distance from her. She never trusted him
after the death of her father. Illayah felt a deep resentment towards him. The little feelings she
had for him were lessening every day. Tarzac Simat was two years of age in human years. When
the Aries invasion arrived, both times Tarzac Simat was just a newborn but like everyone else
he was taken out of the city. Tarzac missed out on seeing his son’s two years of life. In the
present, Tarzac occasionally seen his son Tarzac Simat because of the hectic things that he had
to go through because of the Aries. Tarzac and Garranzana de loco stayed in a corridor of the
castle devising a plan to invade the Aries country for revenge. Illayah thought Tarzac did not
care for her or their son.
While Tarzac and Garranzana de loco planned to invade the Aries homeland, Tarzac would
often beat Illayah if she objected to him. The ground opals held portions of Garranzana de
loco’s power also it held parts of his madness. Whenever a being holds the opal that being feels
the full effects of the opals power and the ground opal gives off the dark one’s madness. Tarzac
had become affected by the opal after the second invasion of the Aries. Tarzac started to feel
Garranzana de loco’s power and madness. Tarzac was also becoming bonded with Garranzana
de loco. Before her father was assassinated Illayah adored Tarzac. She thought Tarzac to be a
mystery that is what attracted her the most towards to him. Illayah often reminisced about the
past when they were friends. The citizens of Yec that wandered through the castle knew of King
Tarzac’s abusive behavior of Illayah his wife. Not only would he beat Illayah but also servants
that aggravated him. Bruises covered Illayah’s face not only did she feel resentment but fear
from Tarzac. General Moshac still in love with Illayah was outraged at Tarzac’s treatment toward
her. Moshac respected Tarzac as a king but hated him as a Sagittarius. Moshac would comfort
Illayah by visiting her in her corridors making small talk. Illayah appreciated what Moshac was
doing. Illayah was utterly sad everyday, and constantly in a state depression.
Garranzana de loco and Tarzac spent months planning an invasion on Appolem against the
Aries. Garranzana de loco knew the location of Appolem. The reason the Aries attacked Yec was
still a mystery but Tarzac wanted revenge. Tarzac trained the VoShow for months to be
prepared for the Aries when the Sagittarius would attack Appolem. Queen Rachael, queen of
the Aquarius, trained the Aquarius women to fight the Aries also the Aquarius had lost a lot of
soldiers fighting against the Aries they too wanted revenge. The Desert City prepared soldiers
too. Tarzac and Garranzana de loco knew that these soldiers were not enough so Garranzana
de loco told Tarzac of his servant warriors the Piedra.
“Tarzac in the Rage Age my daughter led a fierce army of Piedra. They were her people. They
are now my servant army. We will need them to defeat the Aries. Your combined army is good
but not good enough or malicious enough to defeat the Aries.”
Garranzana de loco addressed.
“Aren’t the Piedra savages?”
Tarzac asked.
“What better warriors.”
Garranzana de loco spoken with a suave voice like he always did.
“How will you get them?”
Tarzac asked in a juvenile like voice as he was a sponge learning
“I will tell you in due time.”
Garranzana de loco stated.
Two days later…
The Greebonia forest were forest islands off the coast of Kreestonia. After Jasmine confronted
the Piedra and the Spellbinder in Kreestonia. Mahogany and Animosity fled to the islands
where other Piedra lived. Animosity, the albino Piedra stood in the forest hunting for food. The
Kuman dog appeared to him. The Kuman dog was a messenger of Garranzana de loco. The
dark one had two of these beasts that did his bidding. The two dogs were black hounds with
eyes of fire. The two dogs of Kuman named Bacarkus and Glumador had magical powers they
could talk and could teleport themselves. The dog that came to Animosity was Bacarkus.
Animosity knew the Kuman dog and knew its purpose. So he just listened to what the Kuman
dog had to say.
“General King…the dark one commands that you and the other General King gather the old
Piedra army in months time. Afterwards you must go the prophecy that is king of the
Sagittarius city Yec. Animosity the dark one is in the city of Yec with the prophecy. The prophecy
needs allies to invade Appolem. You will be paid.”
“Is he fully bonded?”
Animosity inquired.
“No almost.”
Bacarkus said responding to Animosity. Then Bacarkus disappeared. Animosity then went to
Mahogany who lived in the Greebonia forest with Animosity.
“The master sends word to gather the army, but the Spellbinder is dead so our loyalty to the
dark one should be over.”
Said Animosity to Mahogany.
“Animosity… You know we cannot disobey the dark one he is so powerful. Sure if Spellbinder
was alive there is nothing we would not do for her.”
Said Mahogany.
“We shouldn’t have run away from Jasmine. Spellbinder could have been alive. “
Upset stated Animosity.
“You know it was her destiny just a part of the prophecy it was nothing we could of done. I am
sick of doing the dark one’s bidding just like you Animosity. He regresses our plans to have a
Piedra empire.”
Said Mahogany.
“Someday we shall have a Piedra empire, but now we have to face reality, the Piedra are slaves
of the dark one and are to weak to free ourselves.”
Stated Animosity.
“It will take sometime for us to regroup the army and there is a matter of building weapons.”
Said Mahogany.
“The prophecy will pay us and the weapons will be funded. “
Stated Animosity.
“I miss La Luz. She was like Piedra family. Do you know if the prophecy is fully merged?”
Sadly stated Mahogany.
“No …He is partly.”
Answered Animosity.
In the next month the Piedra army was fully organized. Hundreds of Piedra marched to Yec in
an orderly line led by Animosity and Mahogany. Fear spread to any Zodiac or Grandi Phi that
seen this scene. As they marched older soldiers reminisced of old times when the Peitra army
was almost unstoppable in the Rage Age. The Piedra were all saddened of the Spellbinder’s
death. With her not leading the army going into battle it was not the same like in the Rage Age.
“This is like the days of OLE when Piedra struck fear and terror through the Western
Hemisphere led by Spellbinder allied with Grandi Phi.”
Said a Piedra soldier marching.
“Yes now we shall bring terror once again led by the prophecy we will now have our Promised
Empire. “
Simultaneously said five other soldiers marching.
“The Promised Empire is just a lie that the dark one told to us. “
Replied Marius another soldier.
“No you have no faith we shall have our empire…The Piedra Empire!”
An old soldier shouted out to Marius
“Naïve fool!”
Argued Marius
Then Marius hissed at the soldiers and they argued with Marius no more.
In a week the Piedra army marched to the gates of Yec. Many Piedra were excited to meet the
prophecy and others were not. Some Piedra did not want to take orders from a Sagittarius.
When the Piedra army came to the gate of Yec, the Sagittarius were frightened. The Sagittarius
citizens thought the Piedra were at the gate to invade the city. Tarzac informed the VoShow on
why the Piedra were at the gate. The VoShow greeted the Piedra into the city. The citizens were
in an uproar, and confused on what was going on so the VoShow calmed the rowdy crowd
down by telling them what was going on. The VoShow escorted the Piedra to the castle. With
the Piedra’s presence in Yec, Tarzac was ready to invade Appolem. Queen Rachael and the
Aquarius wanted to go to Appolem so that they too can seek revenge on the Aries. The
Aquarius suffered from the Aries’ invasions as well as the Sagittarius from Yec and the Desert
City. The Desert City did not want to go to Appolem, and stayed in the Desert City.
The fleet ships that were used for the liberation of the Aquarius still remained in the seaport of
Yec. Garranzana de loco and Tarzac went along with the three armies who were the Piedra,
Aquarius, and Sagittarius. Tarzac put General Moshac in charge of Yec. General Ardax was in
charge of the invasion of Appolem. Tarzac and Garranzana de loco sailed the ship that led the
massive and wooden Sagittarius fleet ships. Garranzana de loco led the fleet because he knew
the geography of the Zodiac World. On the ship the dark one had stayed in his human form. In
human form the dark one would wear a robe with a hood attached. The hood was always
draped over the dark one’s head, which covered most of his face. The dark one’s eyes down to
his chin were visible. His eyes were velvet and his complexion was cream. Garranzana de loco
stayed on a ship with Tarzac, General Ardax, Queen Rachael, Mahogany, Animosity, and fifty
soldiers from the three mixed armies.
If the dark one stayed in human form for a long period of time he would lose power and
become weak. The ground opal that Tarzac was given by him was on the ship, and the ground
opal increases Garranzana de loco ’s powers. The merging between Garranzana de loco and
Tarzac would soon make the two feel each other’s desires and feelings like they were their own.
The dark one, Garranzana de loco, did not want to go on the journey to Appolem for revenge
but for power. The dark one found the map to the hidden temple of Za. In the hidden temple of
Za, was rumored to be the Za crystal. Legend states that the Za crystal was the source of Za’s
power. Za was a Kuman who was named by his followers as the god of black magic he was the
tiger shifter. The Za hidden temple was said to be in Appolem, but no one knew where, but now
the dark one had found the map to the hidden temple. Garranzana de loco knew where every
Zodiac resided a ground opal was near. Tarzac was able to retrieve the opals for the dark one
because of the merge. The merge was getting stronger and Tarzac would soon feel the dark
one’s desires. As they sailed the ocean towards Appolem the dark one and Tarzac stood on the
deck on the boat looking out towards the vast ocean. The dark one looked at Tarzac and said…
“Tarzac. As your curse becomes complete I must tell you that I have two Kumans that obey my
command. They are Bacarkus and Glumador. You too can summon these two Kumans; they call
themselves the two black dogs of Kuman. They will do whatever you command. I use them as
messengers that is all they are good for. In the past they used to be fierce warriors but after a
war—their powers like mine were taken away. “
“You fought many wars haven’t you?”
Tarzac questioned.
“Hundreds… from my old world Kuman and even in the Zodiac World. I do not get tired of wars
I was born to kill… “
Garranzana de loco revealed.
“How do I summon these two dogs of Kuman?”
Tarzac questioned.
“Just call their names and tell them to come to you. They will always come.”
Garranzana de loco replied.
On the deck of the ship, Queen Rachael sat far away from where Tarzac and Garranzana de
loco talked. Looking at the dark one she thought Garranzana de loco’s appearance to be eerie.
The Piedra race on the ship also frightened her because their appearance repulsed her. The
Piedra who are crocodile men have green skin that has long tails. They wore nothing but
clothes that covered their private parts. The Piedra only associated with them selves. Rachael
studied the behavior of the Piedra race (the stone race) by watching them interact with each
other on the ship. She learned from one Piedra there culture. She thought their culture to be
very interesting. The Piedra race entered the Zodiac World when dimensional holes were
breached. The Piedra brought with them their sense of religion. In their home world they had
worshipped a small black stone. This is how their race’s name was established. The Piedra
called them selves the Stone Race, which means in their native tongue the Piedra race. The
black stone they worshipped represented the whole universe in which everything is complete
and One. The black stone brought forth to the race prophets that could tell the future bringing
completeness to the universe if one could know the future. One completed the universe if one
could tell the future. Zodiacs thought the Piedra as savage creatures. Piedra kept to Piedra and
associated with no other beings. The Piedra were forest creatures that liked to sleep outside.
They were carnivorous beings and if food would be scarce they would eat each other. The
Piedra hibernated in the winter. Rachael often wondered but never asked why the General
Kings Mahogany and Animosity were different skin colors from the rest of the race.
General King Mahogany and Animosity were concerned as they journeyed on the ship to
Appolem. They had gotten word that a young Piedra named Marius plotted to over throw
Animosity and Mahogany. This made the two General Kings nervous. Marius knew he could not
try mutiny with the dark one present. Marius silently spoke his plans to overthrow the general
kings when the Piedra returned home. On the ship Marius spoke his propaganda to Piedra
willing to listen mostly young Piedra soldiers that he could manipulate. Queen Rachael
appreciated what Tarzac and the Sagittarius did for her people. The Sagittarius freed them from
the Gemini and gave the Aquarius a new home outside of the walls of Yec. The Aquarius had
been living among the Sagittarius for three years. Rachael and the Aquarius went along with the
Sagittarius and the Piedra because the Aquarius wanted revenge on the Aries. The Aquarius
had lost a great amount of warriors when the Aries invaded Yec and Nome erchu, the Aquarius
village. Another factor of the Aquarius going to Appolem was that the Aquarius felt in debt with
the Sagittarius for freeing them from the Gemini.
The Aquarius had to adapt to so many things in Yec: language of the Sagittarius, eating habits,
and the Sagittarius culture. The Pisces were the Aquarius part of life. The Aquarius lived off the
Pisces and the magical fish gave the Aquarius strength that the Aquarius could never feel again.
It took a year before the Aquarius and the Sagittarius could communicate totally with each
other. The Sagittarius culture was odd to the Aquarius. The religion was unbelievable to the
Aquarius. The Aquarius believed in ten great spirits who guided their way of life. The Aquarius
believes when Aquarius dies he or she would join the ten Great Spirits in the Spirit World called
Anaylal. Annuc is the tenth spirit of who is fate. Acu is the ninth spirit who is the spirit of the
warrior. Mac Mok is the eighth spirit who is the spirit of the Zodiac World or nature. Jin is the
seventh spirit who is prosperity of life. Gabul is the sixth spirit of life. The fifth spirit is Kab, and
Kab is the spirit that resides in a Pisces. Kab is responsible for giving the Pisces magic that gives
off strength to Aquarius when eaten. Ta is the forth spirit who is a brother to Kab. Kab made
the Pisces and Ta made the Aquarius. The last two spirits are Vision a male spirit and Big Spirit a
female spirit. Vision had made Kab, and Ta. Big Spirit made the other Spirits. Big Spirit made
Vision first to be her companion and husband. The Aquarius thought the ideal of Polyganda to
be ridiculous. In Nuc, the Aquarius country the women where the matriarchs of the country.
Being in Yec the women changed their views of men being inferior and allowed a few Aquarius
men to be in the Aquarius army.
Rachael entered Tarzac’s corridors on the ship. Rachael reminded Tarzac of Trishca his old
lover. Whenever Tarzac would see Rachael, Tarzac would be mesmerized by Rachael’s beauty.
Rachael was of an olive complexion with black hair that extended down to her back.
As Rachael entered into Tarzac’s corridors Rachael spoke out and asked.
“King Tarzac may I speak with you?”
If it was anybody else Tarzac would dismiss him or her from his private corridor, but Rachael
was the only thing that he could tolerate. Rachael brought Tarzac’s old self out before the
merge. Tarzac saw Rachael enter his corridor he had smiled and greeted her in.
“Queen Rachael! What brings you to my corridor?”
Questioned Tarzac with a puzzled look.
Rachael had a serious face.
“King Tarzac … I have come to you about this coming war. “
“What about it?”
Tarzac inquired still puzzled.
“I have been thinking about the war and it seems senseless.”
Rachael stated.
“What do you mean?”
Tarzac questioned .Tarzac’s expression on his face become serious.
“We are about to engage in this war for what? Revenge. Nothing is gained by revenge.”
Rachael went on to say.
“Rachael…If we do not engage in this war the Aries might come back to Yec. We must stand up!
Show these beasts that we are not the ones to be dealt with.”
Tarzac explained.
Rachael became silent and thought what Tarzac said made sense. Rachael still felt that going to
Appolem was wrong.
“What you say does make sense Tarzac but I feel …well something in my heart tells me this
invasion is wrong. At this moment in time I can not participate in this invasion.”
Rachael expressed.
This angered Tarzac. He then thought
‘What can I do to persuade Rachael; the only way to persuade her is through black magic.’
The merge was becoming complete.
“Queen Rachael. We have come to far for you to tell me that you are not interested in invading
the Aries…For god’s sake we have traveled across the Zodiac World and can not turn back!”
Tarzac angrily shouted out, then Rachael’s head had bowed down in guilt.
“I know … you are right.”
She said.
Tarzac’s tone in his voice changed to sincere.
“Rachael you know I need you…and the Aquarius for this coming war. Rachael you are an
excellent general and most of all … a good friend.”
“I need time to think about this war Tarzac.”
Rachael said with a calm voice and turned around from facing Tarzac. She then attempted to
walk out of Tarzac’s corridors. Tarzac then grabbed Rachael’s arm aggressively and pulled her
towards him. Rachael had become frightened. She had heard stories of Tarzac’s mad rages
towards his wife and servants in the castle at Yec. Rachael thought that he was going to hit her.
Rachael’s body started to tremble as she looked into his eyes. Tarzac’s facial expression was
one of anger. Queen Rachael felt a great power around her body pressing her feet to the floor.
The force of power rendered her and the Queen of the Aquarius could not move. She was
petrified but could not help to notice how handsome Tarzac was.
Tarzac spoke to her
“ Trishca…Trishca you are so beautiful.”
Tarzac’s madness gave him the illusion that Rachael was Trishca. Distracted by the force of
power nailing her feet down Rachael thought that Tarzac was referring to her. He released his
hand from Rachael’s arm and then kissed her on the lips. Then he conjured up a spell- Tarzac
said…
“Rachael the Queen of the Aquarius I am your master now …obey me King Tarzac, King of Yec.
You will love your master, and your king, and die for him if it comes a time. Queen Rachael you
are now a slave to me. I black fire your heart and soul to me and only me.”
“Yes King Tarzac. I will obey you my love.”
Rachael obeyed.
“You will help against the Aries.”
Tarzac commanded.
“Yes my master … I will die for you”
Queen Rachael obeyed.
{Deals were made; Such deals comes consequences}
–Pravloc (House of Lin)
On the way to Appolem, Tarzac knew when the fleet reached the coast that the army could not
dock the numerous ships onto the shores of Appolem. As the fleet sailed closer to Appolem,
Tarzac send word to all ships that fleet would dock all ships onto the archipelago of Nuc. The
fleet sailed close together and messages were simply sent by yelling out to neighboring ships.
Nuc was the mother country of the Aquarius. Nuc was off the coast of Appolem and Duce (the
Gemini country). Nuc now was a wasteland. Nuc once was a tropical paradise until the Gemini
took the Pisces from Nuc waters. The Pisces were connected to the lands. The Aquarius felt a
sadness and anger because of the appearance of their old home as the fleet docked in Nuc.
The upstart Marius planned to do nothing while in the Eastern Hemisphere helping the
prophecy Tarzac. Rumors of mutiny among the Piedra brought turmoil among the Piedra army.
Marius kept his plans of mutiny secret as possible but not secret enough for Animosity and
Mahogany to know about it. Marius wanted to frighten the General Kings. Marius knew that he
could not let Garranzana de loco know about his plans of mutiny or Marius would be dead.
Animosity and Mahogany could not tell the dark one because of their pride. The General Kings
felt that they could deal with Marius when they reached home to the Western Hemisphere.
While docking ships in Nuc, Garranzana de loco revealed his goal on coming to Appolem to
Tarzac. Garranzana gave a speech.
“Tarzac my main reason for coming to Appolem is that I have been seeking the temple of Za. Za
was a Kuman—the greatest magician. His source of power was said to be in the Za crystal. He
stored his power in the crystal before he died…slain by an Enforcer. The Za crystal is said to be
on top of the hidden temple of Za. I have recently acquired the map to the hidden temple. If we
can have the Za crystal the power we possess would be incredible.”
“Fine we will look for this Za crystal. I too want to feel this great power.”
Tarzac replied.
The fleet all docked; Tarzac sent one warship from Nuc to the shore of Appolem. The first wave
of attack was destroyed. Tarzac and his army were confident that they had an advantage over
the Aries because the Aries did not know Tarzac’s army was coming. This was not true. High
priest Ukeem predicted the Sagittarius’s coming to Appolem. The Aries had set traps on the
shores and in the jungles of Appolem. Tarzac’s first wave of soldiers landed on the shore they
stepped on sticks that triggered huge wooden stakes that emerged from the ground and
pierced through Tarzac’s army’s bodies. More and more ships would come to the coastline only
to run into these wooden stake mines. The Aries army did not have to fight because the
wooden stake mines decreased Tarzac’s army rapidly.
Tarzac’s army could not penetrate through the traps set for them. Tarzac and Garranzana de
loco agreed that magic was needed in order for the soldiers to get through the country due to
the traps. Tarzac conjured a great windstorm to set off all the traps. The windstorm helped
remove some traps but it did not solve the total problem of the traps. Among the traps, more
problems arose because Appolem consisted of eighty- percent jungle and twenty- percent
beach and mountains. It was almost impossible for Tarzac’s army to get pass the impeccable
jungle. The Aries dwelt in villages in the jungle. Aries civilians would often hide as Tarzac and his
army came along a town. Aries warriors would not fight face to face they preferred sneak
attacks as they hid in bushes and trees throwing their giant spears of height and weight at
Tarzac’s army. Tarzac’s army would retaliate with the Sagittarius shooting arrows and the Aries
throwing tiny wooden spears at the Aries.
Tarzac’s account
It is to my observation that we cannot charge through this jungle that we no nothing about. We
also cannot go through jungles frolicsome because we do not know if any other traps exist. I
observed the enemy the Aries, how I hate them so much. I hate this damn country and all this
jungle. Jungle beyond jungles, and hundreds of ancient ruins made of gray stone molded and
decayed. Ancient stone statues of Kumans and Zodiacs buried in the ground. The Aries do not
fight honorable they hide in the jungles and jump out onto my army and kill my soldiers. The
dragon snake does have the map to their country of Appolem so we do know the location of
the Aries palace. My army and I will be destroyed if we walk through the jungles any longer
from the Aries trickery. So I have to do what is right I am the leader and responsible for my
soldiers. Brute strength is not the key to end this war but magic. The dark one and I shall burn
this entire jungle and the Aries will have nowhere to run and finally after all these years I will
destroy the Aries. No longer will they be a threat or nuisance. They are an interesting foe and I
have learned great strategies from them but I hate them so much and they must be abolished.
–King Tarzac
Tarzac’s solution to defeating the Aries was to conjure a large ball of fire to burn the jungles of
Appolem. Tarzac’s army was safe against the spell. The forest fire that lasted for weeks
scorched numerous Aries warriors and civilians. The Aries had surrendered after three weeks
of constant provoked fires. The Aries had surrendered after the forest fire was ended.
Tarzac, the Piedra, and Garranzana de loco stood in the castle that King Jaca Mul resided.
Tarzac’s army had sieged the castle in the Chander Mountains. High King Jaca Mul and High
Priest Ukeem sadly walked with the enemy to a part of the castle where they could make peace
negotiations with Tarzac, and the dark one.
“What can we do in order for you King Tarzac to stop the constant forest fires that are rapidly
killing the Aries?”
Stated King Jaca Mul.
“I will stop the forest fires if the Aries never come to Yec. The Sagittarius too have suffered… The
Aries have invaded are city twice and now this conflict must end.”
King Tarzac demanded.
“We will never come back to Yec again.”
King Jaca Mul expressed.
“That will be excellent.”
Stated King Tarzac.
“King Tarzac will stop the fires for another condition.”
The dark one added.
“What is that?”
King Jaca Mul questioned.
“Before we leave Appolem, we desire to search and find the Za temple. Let us look for this
temple without any Aries warriors’ attacks. Tell your warriors to fall back—no harm shall be
done to us and no harm will be done to the Aries.”
The dark one stated.
“This is ludicrous. The Za temple if you could find it. The temple is sacred to the Aries and
should not be tampered with.”
Spoke out high priest Ukeem. Ukeem knew what was in the Za temple and he knew what was
there could ever fall in the wrong hands could be so dangerous. What remained in the hidden
temple were weapons of mass destruction made by the god of black magic himself.
“Old Aries … If you don’t let us explore in peace the fires will go on!”
Yelled out King Tarzac.
“Very well you are aloud to explore and no harm will be done to you the Aries offer you peace
now.”
Spoke King Jaca Mul.
Tarzac had sent the Sagittarius VoShow and the Aquarius army back to the fleet on the
coastline of Appolem. Tarzac and Garranzana de loco took the Piedra army and led the
expedition to the hidden temple. Fifty Aries warriors sent by high priest Ukeem tried to stop the
expedition. High priest Ukeem knew that Tarzac and Garranzana de loco could not take the Za
crystal because it was such a great weapon of destruction. The Aries warriors sent by Ukeem
tried to kill Tarzac, the dark one, and the Piedra army. The Aries warriors sent by Ukeem were
easily defeated by the Piedra army and the dark one’s black magic. The dark one was furious
because the Aries warriors threatened his life and tried to ruin his plans. Tarzac hated the Aries
even more now because they broke treaty laws. Garranzana de loco sent the Piedra to find and
kill high priest Ukeem. The Piedra were successful and found that high priest Ukeem possessed
a ground opal. The ground opal was the object Ukeem always held in his hands. The ground
opal was the cause of Ukeem’s powers. The Piedra retrieved the opal and brought the dead
body of Ukeem and the opal back to Tarzac and Garranzana de loco. The Piedra brought to the
dark one the dead body of Ukeem to show their loyalty. High priest Ukeem was a half-eaten
carrion when they brought him to the dark one. The Piedra when they found Ukeem in the
Wattibe jungle had eaten him alive.
In a week of their expedition they found the Za crystal and it was where the legends said it to be
on top of the hidden Za temple. The Za crystal gave the Aries the ability to alter into rams or
half ram and half man beings. Tarzac had removed the crystal from the temple and all the Aries
in Appolem had turned into their primitive state a ram for permit. Garranzana de loco and
Tarzac was unaware of this, but when Tarzac found out he was very pleased at his enemies’
displeasure. With the Za crystal removed from the temple, the Aries could no longer be a threat
to the Sagittarius and the Aquarius. When the Aries turned into their primitive form, millions of
Aries screams were heard in the air.
