THE GREAT WORK

  “THOU SHALT GIVE UP THY NAME;THOU SHALT GIVE UP THY PRIDE;THOU SHALT GIVE UP THY SOUL;

  THE HUMAN REMAINS;THE LOVE REMAINS.”

  The aggressive and massive dragon,called as Fazeul have come to life in the real world and has spread its wings upon the city of Orsantia,(first time in who knows how many years.)

  As the moonlight stops from hitting the surface,The pygrounds gets dark but

  chaos has already erupted and people are crushing each other to reach to the entrance of the Underground city,

  The indiscriminatory screams of man,woman and children are filling the space of Orsantia;

  The cracking of bones,the sound of life leaving the body and soul entering the eternal are ringing in the heads of Mikhael’s friends,BUT

  Amid all of this havoc,Mikhael isn’t afraid,nor is he screaming,he is motionless,

  His eyes are set on the monster but his mind is reeling back to the past,

  a tiny drop of sweat drops from his forehead and someone from the crowd violently pushes him aside,

  And he gets back to his senses,He suddenly looks for his friends,

  “Natasha….”

  He tries finding in the crowd,

  And then the dragon roars with the ferocity of 1000 lions,its screams make some in the crowd go deaf for their lifetime and

  The dragon charges at them straight from the sky like a shooting star,

  Mikhael violently attempting to cover his ears sees Natasha, she is motionless ,her body crushed under the stampede,

  The world goes dark for some moments,

  and his life memories fshed before his eyes ,

  And his memories goes back in time,When they both first met,

  Date:-6th Feb , 11006 HWD

  Time:-7:30 PM

  Location:-Lumenfall hills,Next to Orsantian Mountains

  It was cold winter ,

  There was snow all around and Mikhael who was in a small cave by the hills was burning his st remaining wood for the night,

  “I will freeze to death if i dont get something to warm myself.”

  The snow was heavy and the path to the forest was full of danger,

  the non-humans who are afraid of fire,hunts from mid-night to dawn break,

  Ever night is a struggle to survive,

  The recent wars which were being fought between countries were cut off after the appearance of the non-humans and the army of Orsantia was redirected to fight against the non-humans,

  In some nights,the civilians can hear the sounds of screams of the soldiers fighting in the low valley and getting eaten by them.

  “A hell on earth.” Mikhael thinks,

  As he was thinking all this,the sound of a foot step comes from the outside ,

  Mikhael quickly draws his small steel dagger from his waist and gets ready,

  “A non-human…,

  It can’t be ,its only about 7”

  He is terrified,his body trembling by the combination of coldness and empty stomach.

  Regardless he slowly moves out to see ,who is it

  On the snow ,a few meter away from the cave entrance lies a scarf,

  He picks up the scarf,

  The scarf was warm,

  And his eyes gets numb

  His body trembles and his adrenaline wears down,

  but he looks at the snow,and finds the footprints,

  His inner desire to follow them was louder than his biological mechanisms and thus he follows the trail.

  TOPIC:-

  RELIGIOUS ORDER-SOLOMORAN

  After the appearance of Non-humans,a few months ago.The local religious communities have become very popur and prominent in the Region,

  The most prominent of them is the Solomoran,

  known for their blood rituals and political power,

  Its followers also known as “SOLIST” quickly gained attention after the appearance of the non-humans.

  They are the followers of an old god named SEVERAN,who is believed to be the protector the Underground Cities(Underground cities are an important asset to general public as it is the only safe pce from the non-humans.)

  The wealth and fame of these “SOLISTS” have led to various established religious houses for their praying and rituals.

  —---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Across from the hill where Mikhael was in a cave,

  There stands a old heavy religious monument, ( An expansive church-like building),

  Inside the building was nothing but a staircase that goes down in earth for about 10 meters and opens in a small circur room with heavy stones as walls and a raised stone in the center of the room

  “Oh,the almighty SEVERAN,Thou shalt hear my request,

  take this offering in your p and free it from eternal suffering.”,A solist prays to the

  raised stone upon which is a beautiful girl of age 7,in a terrified state,fearing of whats going on and,not knowing whats happening around,

  There are around 20 people comprised of male and female inside the room,all wearing the dark bck robe with the bck hood on their head,covering their head and eyes,

  The solist who was in a deep state of praying and was on his knees ,suddenly rises up and announces,

  “THE ENFORCER FINALLY COMES!”,all the members inside the room who were on their knees suddenly rises up with excitement and happiness but controlling their emotions with great effort,they refrained from talking to each other and waited,

  A member moves forward to give a knife to the praying priest

  The solicist who was praying (who looks to be the main priest there)whispers to himself,

  “All the sacrifices and penance of multiple generations is finally going to be fruitful today,

  Today,i shall meet the ruler of the worlds.”

  The sheer thought of it made his body go wiggling with joy ,

  He composes himself and waits for the footsteps,

  A few seconds ter,someone opens the door of the building and travels the stairs to come down to the room,

  The priest’s heart stops at the sound of the steps coming below into the room,

  The boy who travelled the stairs to get down to the room, gets confused upon seeing the scenary and asks the priest,”Whats going on in here?”

  The priest unable to believe his fate and eyes ,locks the eyes with the boy and says to him,”You are Mikhael”

  The boy getting confused says to him,”Who are you?did you follow me here?and my name isnt Mikhael ,its Elias”

  The priest looks at him again and with a smile says again,”You will know in a moment.”,

  Mikhael,who followed the trail to the building is now confused at the site and asking himself to what conclusion he should make of this,

  but he sees the afraid girl and the knife in the priest’s hand,

  He pulls out his dagger and gets ready to attack , then slowly moves to the girl side and takes her by the hand and slowly tries to move out but the members blocks the path,

  MIkhael shows them the knife,but all he can see is the happiness and excitement in the eyes of the members rather than fear of the knife.

  The priest there walks close to him and says,”She is the offering to the old god,from whose help,the god of the new world will arise.”

  Mikhael loudly says,”She is a person , You idiot.”

  Priest thinks to himself,”He acts before thinking,Exactly as “The GREAT WORK” predicted.”

  Priest goes on to say ,

  “We need to perform the ritual of bondage of her with the god,

  However if you want to save her ,you will have to be bonded with her.”

  Mikhael now getting scared of the aroma and the tension of the room,wants to run away but

  the priest casually moves his hands to take the knife out of Mikhael’s hands,

  The priest agrees to let them go if they did the ritual of bondage,which was simply a 2 drop blood ritual,

  Mikhael who was now getting scared agress to this, and the priest moves them to the stone on which the girl was sat,

  The girl unable to speak and in a state of shock clings to MIkhael in a state of hope,

  Mikhael embraces her hands and gives her a firm reassurance,”Its OKAY,we are gonna be OKAY.”

  the priest moves to the stone and takes mikhael’s hand in his hand

  and checks the back of mikhael’s left hand and smiles then

  he makes 1 sharp cut on the palm of that hand,

  a fresh trickle of blood drops down from the cut and on to the stone

  the priest does the same for the girl,and the blood also drops to the stone

  The priest takes both Mikhael’s hand and the girl’s and make a cup them together and the collective blood drops to the stone,

  Upon this happening,The members around who were standing drops to their knees and bows their head to the two children,

  The priest excimed,”THE GREAT WORK IS A SUCESS”

  and all the member rises up hugging each other,

  Mikhael who is seemingly confused but relieved over this ,

  agains feels the trembling hand of the girl

  and he again reassures that

  they will get out of here,

  and asks her,

  “Is this your scarf?”showing the scarf he found out outside of the cave,

  The girl nods her head in rejection,

  Mikhael stops and puts the scarf around her and she embraces it,

  Mikhael again asks,”Whats your name?”

  the girl replies,”I…..I don…..I don’t have a name?”

  Mikhael understanding and predicting her past says to her,

  “OK,well from now on,your name is NATASHA.”

  the girl repeats the name catching up its pronunciation.

  “nATASHA”

  “NATASHA”

  “Natasha”

  —-------------------------------------------------------(Present)----------------------------------------------------

  “NAAAATTTTAAAAASSSSHHHHHAAAA.”

  Mikhael screams at the top of his lungs but the body of Natasha’s remains motionless.

  Suddenly from all the sides of the mountains,

  a dome begins to erupt from the earth,

  8 separate walls begins to move above from under the earth,

  from all sides making a cage,and forming a dome

  Everyone gets perplexed over the situation and as the dragon comes closer and closer,

  The dome activation gets faster and faster ,

  The walls coming together against the dragon who is bolting at them at lightning speed,

  Just before the dragon was about to kill them all,the 8 walls fused together to form a dome successfully closing Orsantia and saving the people,

  But the non-humans in the pygrounds have now fully came to life ,

  Mikhael quickly gets to Natasha and checks her pulse,

  its still going,

  He piggybacks her and screams,

  “ALL TO THE UNDERGROUND ,NOW.”
