Chapter 4: Lore

I saw it several times while traversing the forest. A giant tree like any ordinary tree. Save for its roots which oddly enough through the corner of my eye resembled a man.

As I looked at it head on i saw nothing but the trunk of a tree.

I was curious. I approached the tree, it was there at the base of the trunk I noticed the four indents. Barely visible, surrounded by roots. Three in the shape of a triangle with one more directly above.

This was it. I placed an item in each hole. Then, Nothing. No movement no sound, no light. Nothing happened.

Maybe I got the order wrong. I rearranged them as many times as i could till I ran out of ideas. I sat in the forest, looking at the items hoping something would click.

It was then that i looked at their lore «Flavor Text» the short detailed explanation of every item in the game that built on the lore within game.

Chapter 5: Puzzle

I read each of the descriptions of the event items and as if the light had shone upon me, I understood the puzzle.

[The heart of a legendary creature. Is it true, did the fairies help the Akamin and teach the Avinirra. One can never know the heart of another. The mythical fairy sits high in the hearts of mortals. The fairies. - Heart of a Fairy].

Sure of myself i placed each item in its proper place.

Pixie lower left.

Sprite lower right.

Wisp middle center.

And fairy highest point.

I called out the words to open the gate.

"Open the door to the home of the fairies"

The ground below me began to shake.

Chapter 6: World of the Fairies

The ground below me shook. The tree that stood before me shot up. It grew in size till it towered over the forest.

Before me a pathway opened in roots of the tree. A dark winding pathway lead down below. I used the spell «Foxfire» to light the path.

I walked the winding stairs. Below the tree was a lake of crystal clear water. I leaned over the edge looking down to the bottom of the lake.

On the surface of the water I could see my reflection, broad shoulders. Clean shaven face, oval face, long wide nose, light brown skin, dark green eyes, silver shoulder length hair parted down the middle that clung to my face.

All in all my «Avatar» appeared a little above average as far as looks go. It wasn't unfamiliar as it was similar to my own face.

Looking into the depths of the waters, a brilliant light shone from within the lake. The waters of the lake began to swirl into a raging whirlpool.

From within i felt something like a hand pull me in, dragging me into twisting waters.

I fell unconscious.
